Section: 5.2.7 UE Radio Capability ID
Content: The UE Radio Capability ID is a short pointer with format defined in TS 23.003[ Numbering, addressing and identification ]  [9] that is used to uniquely identify a set of UE Radio Capabilities (excluding UTRAN and NB-IoT capabilities). The UE Radio Capability ID is assigned either by the serving PLMN or by the UE manufacturer, as follows: - UE manufacturer-assigned: The UE Radio Capability ID may be assigned by the UE manufacturer in which case it includes the UE manufacturer information (i.e. a Vendor ID). In this case, the UE Radio Capability ID uniquely identifies a set of UE radio capabilities and the UE Radio Capability for Paging for this manufacturer in any PLMN. - PLMN-assigned: If a UE manufacturer-assigned UE Radio Capability ID is not used by the UE or the serving network, or it is not recognised by the serving PLMN UCMF, the UCMF may allocate UE Radio Capability IDs for the UE corresponding to different sets of UE radio capabilities the PLMN may receive from the UE at different times. In this case, the UE Radio Capability IDs the UE receives are applicable to the serving PLMN and uniquely identify the corresponding sets of UE radio capabilities and the UE Radio Capability for Paging(s) in this PLMN. The PLMN assigned UE Radio Capability ID includes a Version ID in its format. The value of the Version ID is the one configured in the UCMF, at time the UE Radio Capability ID value is assigned. The Version ID value makes it possible to detect whether a UE Radio Capability ID is current or outdated. NOTE: For the case the PLMN is configured to store PLMN assigned IDs in the UE manufacturer-assigned operation requested list defined in clause 5.11.3a, then the algorithm for assignment of PLMN Assigned UE Radio Capability ID shall assign different UE Radio Capability IDs for UEs with different IMEI/TAC value. The type of UE Radio Capability ID (UE manufacturer-assigned or PLMN-assigned) is distinguished when a UE Radio Capability ID is signalled.
