NETWORK IDENTIFIER TRANSLATION AND DATA REPOSITORY DISCOVERY

原文（中文）

Systems and methods are provided for identifying a first Unified Data Repository (UDR) instance storing a first user equipment identifier (UEID) type value, which may be a Generic Public Subscription Identifier (GPSI) value. The first UEID type value is translated to a second UEID type value, which may be a Subscription Permanent Identifier (SUPI) value. A second UDR instance storing a range of second UEID type values within which the identified second UEID type value is included is identified, and a service request specifying the first UEID type value (received, e.g., from a network function (NF)) can be forward to the identified second UDR instance to satisfy the service request.
