name: MB-SMF
full_form: Multicast/Broadcast Session Management Function.
context: Converged charging may be performed by the MB-SMF interacting with CHF using Nchf specified in TS 32.290 [4] and TS 32.291 [5]. The MB-SMF shall be able to perform converged charging for each of the following: - Charging data related to MBS session with individual and shared traffic delivery for Multicast; - Charging data related to MBS session for Broadcast; - Charging data related to service data flows within the MBS session. The MB-SMF shall be able to report charging events to CDF for CDR generation. The MB-SMF shall be able to perform convergent charging by interacting with CHF, for charging data related to MBS sessions. The Charging Data Request and Charging Data Response are exchanged between the MB-SMF and the CHF, based on SCUR scenarios specified in TS 32.290 [4]. The Charging Data Request is issued by the MB-SMF towards the CHF when certain conditions (chargeable events) are met. The MB-SMF initiates a charging session with Charging Data Request/Response [Initial], updates
description: The Multicast/Broadcast Session Management Function (MB-SMF) is responsible for managing multicast and broadcast sessions, including converged charging, within the network. It interacts with other network functions such as the Charging Function (CHF) to perform charging-related tasks.
explanation: MB-SMF is classified as a Network Function based on its role in managing multicast and broadcast sessions, performing converged charging, and interacting with other network functions like CHF, as highlighted by the context from 3GPP TS 32.279.
