Abstract
A system and method may improve latency for user equipment (UE) registration in cellular networks. UE registration may retrieve the UE's configuration and subscription data locally rather than from a network or cloud-based unified data management (UDM) entity that manages a unified data repository (UDR). For example, the UE may send a unique identification (e.g., a UE ID) for the UE to a registering entity of a cellular network system. The UE ID may then be used to identify a UE Group Identification for the UE at the UDM. The UE Group Identification may be a pointer to the locally-stored configuration and subscription data for the UE. The entity requesting registration may then use the pointer to retrieve the configuration and subscription data locally rather than a remote entity such as the UDM.
