UE operating in single-registration mode in a network supporting N26 interface
A UE, supporting both N1 mode and S1 mode. During the last attach, tracking area update (see 3GPP TS 24.301 [15]) or registration procedures, the UE has received either a 5GS network feature support IE with IWK N26 bit set to "interworking without N26 interface not supported" or an EPS network feature support IE with IWK N26 bit set to "interworking without N26 interface not supported".
UE policy section identifier
A UE policy section identifier (UPSI) is an identifier of a UE policy section, which is composed of the MCC and MNC of:
UE supporting CIoT 5GS optimizations
A UE that supports control plane CIoT 5GS optimization or user plane CIoT 5GS optimization and one or more other CIoT 5GS optimizations when the UE is in N1 mode.
UE supporting UAS services
A UE which supports an aerial vehicle, such as a drone, with an onboard or built-in USIM and is able to perform UE NAS functionalities specified in this specification. Upper layers of the UE supporting UAS services are responsible for UAS related procedures, such as UUAA and C2 authorization, for which the NAS layer of the UE supporting UAS services performs the necessary NAS procedures.
UE using 5GS services with control plane CIoT 5GS optimization
A UE that is registered for 5GS services with the control plane CIOT 5GS optimization accepted by the network.
User plane CIoT 5GS optimization
Signalling optimizations to enable efficient transport of user data (IP, Ethernet or Unstructured) over the user plane.
User Plane Positioning Connection Management Information (UPP-CMI)
The messages defined in clause 6 of 3GPP TS 24.572 [64] that are utilized to manage the user plane connection between the UE and the LMF for LCS-UPP.
User-plane resources
Resources established between the UE and the UPF. The user-plane resources consist of one of the following:
W-AGF acting on behalf of the N5GC device
A W-AGF that enables an N5GC device behind a 5G-CRG or an FN-CRG to connect to the 5G Core.
