    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. Specifically, the disclosure relates to a method of conducting localisation based on ProSe for a set of UEs in a 5G network comprising the set of UEs, an AMF, LMF, and a ProSe AS by initiating a 5G ProSe direct communication between UEs of the set of UEs and a reference UE, to relay location information from a remote UE, included in the set of UEs, via the reference UE and a 5G core, 5GC, entity for example the LMF. The method includes registering, by the set of UEs, ProSe capabilities thereof with the AMF, wherein the role of the reference UE is fulfilled by a PRU. Further, the method includes starting, by the LMF, localisation procedures.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of things (IoT). A method, by a network data analytics function (NWDAF), for a user equipment (UE) data collection is provided. The method includes the steps of receiving, from a service consumer network function (NF), a request for requiring the UE data collection via an application function (AF) for analytics; discovering the AF that provides the UE data collection based on AF profiles of the AF; transmitting, to the AF, a request for a subscription to the AF for the UE data collection for the analytics including at least one event identifier (ID), at least one event filter related to the at least one event ID, and a target of event reporting; and receiving, from the AF, a notification on a processed data collected according to the subscription.

    Abstract: A method for supporting end-to-end (e2e) Quality of Service (QoS) for uplink (UL) communication between a User Equipment (UE) and a network via a relay node, the method performed by the relay node, are provided. The method includes receiving, from the network, a downlink (DL) packet for the UE, wherein the DL packet includes a value of a first indicator of a QoS flow on a first link between the relay node and the network, and creating or updating a QoS rule, wherein the QoS rule is derived based on the value of the first indicator, and optionally wherein the created or updated QoS rule corresponds to the UE or to a QoS flow on a second link with the UE.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method of controlling, preferably configuring and/or reconfiguring, a 5th generation (5G) network comprising a set of user equipment (UE) including a first UE is provided. The method includes configuring the set of UEs, for example the first UE, for collecting data therefrom, collecting the data from the set of UEs, mapping the collected data to a user intent, and controlling, preferably configuring and/or reconfiguring, the network based, at least in part, on the mapped user intent.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of things (IoT). A method, by a network data analytics function (NWDAF) entity, for supporting user equipment (UE) data collection from a UE, includes receiving, from a service consumer network function (NF) entity, a first request for the UE data collection for analytics, the first request including analytics filter information, discovering an application function (AF) entity that provides the UE data collection based on AF profiles of the AF entity, determining a list of subscription permanent identifiers (SUPIs) from at least one of an access and mobile management function (AMF) entity and a session management function (SMF) entity based on the analytics filter information, transmitting, to the AF entity, a second request for a subscription to the AF entity for the UE data collection, wherein the subscription is associated with a list of UEs related to the determined list of the SUPIs, and receiving, from the AF entity, a notification on processed data collected according to the subscription.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. A method performed by a first network data analytics function (NWDAF) is provided. The method comprises: receiving, from a NWDAF service consumer, a first request for first analytics information, the first request including first time information on a first time duration when the first analytics information is needed for the NWDAF service consumer; transmitting, to a second NWDAF, a second request for second analytics information, the second request including second time information on a second time duration when the second analytics information is needed for the first NWDAF; receiving, from the second NWDAF, a second response including the second analytics information; and transmitting, to the NWDAF service consumer, a first response including the first analytics information generated based on second analytics information received from the at least one second NWDAF.
