Abstract
An application function (AF) or network exposure function (NEF) requests authorization tokens to access policy control functions (PCF) from network repository function (NRF) for each AI/ML cycle, and receives a token that authorizes the AF to manage the quality of service (QoS) policy for the next AIML training cycle. Upon token validation, the AF sends a request to the NEF to reserve resources for an AF session. Upon authorization, the NEF sends a discovery request message to a binding support function (BSF) to discover PCFs serving WTRUs of an indicated group for the next AI/ML training cycle in the request from the AF. The BSF sends a discovery response to the NEF that comprises a list of the PCFs serving the identified WTRUs. The authorization tokens for PCF policy management on each PCF for the next AIML training cycle are then requested from the NRF.
