    The 5G architecture document discusses key network functions: The AMF performs mobility management functions like the MME in 4G and terminates interfaces to the RAN. The SMF handles session management and policy control like the SGW and PGW in 4G, allocating IP addresses and selecting UPFs. The UPF is the user plane function, performing packet routing, inspection and QoS handling like a combined SGW and PGW user plane function. It can be placed close to the network edge for bandwidth efficiencies.

    The key takeaways are that the document discusses the 5G architecture and the roles of the AMF, SMF, and UPF.

    The AMF performs mobility management, authentication, security context management, and applies mobility policies from the PCF.

    The SMF performs session management functions like allocating IP addresses, NAS signaling, sending QoS and policy information to the AMF, and selecting and controlling the UPF.

    5G Architecture

    The AMF (Access and mobility Management Function) performs most of the
    functions that the MME (Mobility Management Entity) performs in a 4G
    network.
    • Terminates the RAN CP (Cyclic-Prefix ) interface (N2)
    • NAS (Non-Access Stratum ) signaling
    • NAS ciphering and integrity protection
    • Mobility Management (MM) layer NAS termination
    • Session Management (SM) layer NAS forwarding
    • Authenticates UE
    • Manages the security context
    • Registration management.
    • Connection management.
    • Reachability management.
    • Mobility Management.
    • Apply mobility related policies from PCF (Policy Control Function) (e.g.
    mobility restrictions)
    • SMF — Session Management Function
    • The SMF performs the session management functions that are
    handled by the 4G MME, SGW (Serving Gateway )-C, and PGW
    (Packet Gateway ) -C.
    • Allocates IP addresses to UEs
    • NAS signaling for session management (SM)
    • Sends QoS and policy information to RAN via the AMF
    • Downlink data notification
    • Select and control UPF for traffic routing. The UPF selection
    function enables Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) by selecting a UPF
    close to the edge of the network.
    • Acts as the interface for all communication related to offered user
    plane services. SMF determines how the policy and charging for
    these services is applied.
    • Lawful intercept — control plane
    • UPF — User Plane Function
    • The UPF is essentially a fusion of the data plane parts of the
    SGW (Serving Gateway) and PGW (PDN (Packet data
    network) Gateway) . In the context of the CUPS architecture:
    • EPC SGW-U + EPC PGW-U → 5G UPF
    • The UPF performs the following functions:
    • Packet routing and forwarding
    • Packet inspection and QoS handling. The UPF may
    optionally integrate a Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) for
    packet inspection and classification. The following figure
    shows the classification and QoS handling at the UPF
    • The User Plane Function (UPF) is a fundamental component of a
    3GPP (The 3rd Generation Partnership Project is a standards
    organization which develops protocols for mobile telephony) 5G core
    infrastructure system architecture. The UPF represents the data plane
    evolution of a Control and User Plane Separation (CUPS) strategy, first
    introduced as an extension to existing Evolved Packet Cores (EPCs) by
    the 3GPP in their Release 14 specifications. CUPS decouples Packet
    Gateway (PGW) control and user plane functions, enabling the data
    forwarding component (PGW-U) to be decentralized. This allows
    packet processing and traffic aggregation to be performed closer to the
    network edge, increasing bandwidth efficiencies while reducing
    network. The PGW’s handling signaling traffic (PGW-C) remain in the
    core, northbound of the Mobility Management Entity (MME).
