Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to systems and techniques for improved signaling of subscriber information and updates thereto for one or more location-based user plane services. In one examples, the systems and techniques can include determining the existence of a converged User Plane Function (UPF) comprising a Serving Gateway User Plane (SGW-U) session and a Packet Data Network (PDN) Gateway User Plane (PGW-U) session. In response to determining the existence of the converged UPF, User Equipment (UE) information can be transmitted from a Serving Gateway Control Plane (SGW-C) session to the SGW-U session of the converged UPF. The UE information received at the SGW-U session can be shared to the PGW-U session of the converged UPF, wherein the PGW-U session receives the UE information without communicating with a PDN Gateway Control Plane (PGW-C) session.
