Abstract
A method for collecting user equipment (UE) data includes performing, at a network data analytics function (NWDAF), discovery of an application function (AF) for data collection. The discovery is based on the received request. The method subscribes to the AF for data collection at the NWDAF, and determines by the AF, one or more target UEs for data collection. The method performs discovery of a policy control function (PCF) by the AF, and sends a policy from the PCF to the one or more target UEs. The method establishes an association between at least one of the one or more target UEs and the AF, instructs the one or more target UEs to collect data and to send the collected data to the AF, and sends the collected data from the AF to the NWDAF.
