scope:

The present specification provides the stage 3 definition of the Access and Mobility Policy Control Service (Npcf_AMPolicyControl) of the 5G System.

The stage 2 definition and procedures of the Access and Mobility Policy Control Service are contained in 3GPP TS 23.502 [3] and 3GPP TS 23.503 [4]. The 5G System Architecture is defined in 3GPP TS 23.501 [2].

Stage 3 call flows are provided in 3GPP TS 29.513 [7].

The Technical Realization of the Service Based Architecture and the Principles and Guidelines for Services Definition of the 5G System are specified in 3GPP TS 29.500 [5] and 3GPP TS 29.501 [6].

The Access and Mobility Policy Control Service is provided by the Policy Control Function (PCF). This service provides Access and Mobility Policies.
