Abstract

A signal transmission and reception method by a session management function (SMF) in a wireless communication system according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps of: the SMF determining whether or not a protocol data unit (PDU) session is to be activated; and the SMF transmitting a message comprising a session management (SM) message to an access and mobility management function (AMF). The PDU session is a PDU session which should be activated by means of a user equipment (UE) which received the SM message. The message comprising the SM message comprises information for activating the PDU session by means of the AMF.

Claims (12)

1. A signal transmission and reception method for a session management function (SMF) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

determining, by the SMF, whether a protocol data unit (PDU) session is to be activated; and

transmitting, by the SMF, a message including a PDU Session Modification Command to an access and mobility management function (AMF),

wherein the PDU Session Modification Command includes a new Proxy-Call Session Control Function (P-CSCF) list based on a P-CSCF failure, and

wherein based on the PDU session being related to an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) registration of a User Equipment (UE) via a P-CSCF in the new P-CSCF list, the PDU session is activated.

2. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the message comprises information for the AMF to activate the PDU session, and

wherein the information is used by the AMF to activate the PDU session.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein based on that the AMF activates the PDU session, the UE receiving the PDU Session Modification Command skips an activation of the PDU session.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PDU session is deactivated before the SMF transmits the message including the PDU Session Modification Command.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the message including the PDU Session Modification Command is a Namf_Communication_NIN2Message Transfer message.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PDU Session Modification Command further comprises information for informing that the UE does not need to activate the PDU session.
