5.49.1.2 Backhaul PDU Session handling for MWAB

Taught in 26. Relays, satellites, femtos and shared networks (The 5G system architecture, in depth).

The use of multiple BH PDU Sessions for MWAB-gNB N2, N3, Xn interfaces and OAM access is based on configuration from OAM of the MWAB Broadcasted PLMN/SNPN.

The MWAB-gNB requests BH PDU Session(s) from the MWAB-UE by providing corresponding traffic descriptors specified in TS 23.503 [45] and TS 24.526 [110], via the implementation based internal communication between the MWAB-gNB and the MWAB-UE.

The MWAB-UE establishes, modifies BH PDU Sessions based on the received traffic descriptors from MWAB-gNB, configured URSP rules, and local configuration.

NOTE: The MWAB-gNB, acting as upper layer of the MWAB-UE described in TS 24.526 [110], can categorize the traffic in different ways (e.g. based on different interfaces Xn/N2/N3/OAM, or nature of the traffic (control signalling vs user plane traffic), or slices supported by the MWAB-gNB) and provides corresponding traffic descriptors to MWAB-UE. The internal communication details between MWAB-gNB and MWAB-UE is outside the scope of this specification. For slice information based categorization, see clause 5.49.1.4.
