Method for transmitting and receiving signal related to handover from 5GS to EPS in wireless communication system and device therefor
An embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for an access and mobility management function (AMF) transmitting and receiving a signal related to a handover from 5GS to an evolved packet system (EPS) of a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system the method comprising a step in which the AMF receives a handover required message from a next-generation radio access network (NG-RAN); a step in which the AMF requests a session management (SM) context to a packet data network gateway+session management function (PGW+SMF); a step of receiving an SM context from the PGW+SMF; and a step in which the AMF transmits a handover command to the NG-RAN, wherein the SM context request is for a PDU session associated with 3GPP access among a plurality of protocol data unit (PDU) sessions.
1. A method of transmitting and receiving, by an access and mobility management function (AMF), a signal related to handover of a user equipment (UE) from a fifth generation system (5GS) to an evolved packet system (EPS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, by the AMF, a Handover Required message from a next generation radio access network (NG-RAN);
requesting, by the AMF, a session management (SM) context to a packet data network gateway+session management function (PGW+SMF);
receiving the SM context from the PGW+SMF; and
transmitting, by the AMF, a handover command to the NG-RAN,
wherein the SM context request is for a protocol data unit (PDU) session related to a third generation partnership project (3GPP) access among a plurality of PDU sessions,
wherein the AMF refrains from transmitting a SM context request for any non-3GPP sessions that the UE has, and
wherein the PDU session has an allocated EPS bearer ID (EBI).
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the SM context request includes a PDU session ID for the PDU session related to the 3GPP access.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the PDU session ID is reference information assigned by an SMF during generation of the SM context for the PDU session to identify the PDU session or the SM context.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the received SM context is for the PDU session corresponding to the PDU session ID.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of PDU sessions includes one or more PDU sessions related to 3GPP access and zero or more PDU sessions related to non-3GPP access.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein a type of the handover is handover from the 5GS to an evolved universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS) terrestrial radio access network (E-UTRAN).
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the AMF stores access information for each PDU session.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PGW+SMF manages both a 3GPP access PDU session and a non-3GPP access PDU session.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein an access type in the SM context request is set to the 3GPP access.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein only the PDU session related to the 3GPP access is handed over to a target access network based on the handover command.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the target access network is an evolved universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS) terrestrial radio access network (E-UTRAN).
12. An access and mobility management function (AMF) device for transmitting and receiving a signal related to handover of a user equipment (UE) from a fifth generation system (5GS) to an evolved packet system (EPS) in a wireless communication system, the AMF device comprising:
a transceiver; and
a processor,
wherein the processor is configured to:
receive a Handover Required message from a next generation radio access network (NG-RAN) through the transceiver;
request a session management (SM) context to a packet data network gateway+session management function (PGW+SMF);
receive the SM context from the PGW+SMF; and
transmit a handover command to the NG-RAN,
wherein the SM context request is for a protocol data unit (PDU) session related to a third generation partnership project (3GPP) access among a plurality of PDU sessions,
wherein the AMF refrains from transmitting a SM context request for any non-3GPP sessions that the UE has, and
wherein the PDU session has an allocated EPS bearer ID (EBI).
