Namf_Location

The Namf_Location service is used by NF service consumers to request the AMF for initiating positioning requests and provide the location information. It is also used to subsequently notify the location change events towards the NF service consumers. The following are the key functionalities of this NF service:

  • Allow NFs to request the current geodetic and optionally civic location of a target UE.

  • Allow NFs to be notified of event information related to emergency sessions.

  • Allow NFs to request Network Provided Location Information (NPLI) and/or local time zone corresponding to the location of a target UE.
