Abstract

A method performed by a core network node of a wireless communications network having a first gNB and a second gNB, a wireless device, WD, is connected to the first gNB, and a first Packet Data Unit, PDU, session is established between the WD and a Data Network over a first User Plane Function, UPF. The method includes obtaining information regarding a predicted positional change indicating a new future position of the WD and selecting a second UPF which is more suitable than the first UPF for transmission of data between an application server and the WD for the new future position. The method includes triggering establishment of the second PDU session over the second UPF, and in response to the triggering establishment of the second PDU session over the second UPF, triggering a first move of packet flows from the first PDU session to the second PDU session.
