5G Real-time Media Communication Architecture (Stage 2)
The present document specifies an architecture for real-time media communication integrated into the 5G System. To support Mobile Network Operator (MNO) and third-party services for real-time media, essential functionalities and interfaces are specified. The primary scope of this Technical Specification is the documentation of the following aspects:
- The definition of a real-time media communication architecture mapped to the 5GS architecture, with relevant core building blocks, reference point, and interfaces to support modern operator and third-party media services, based on the 5GMS architecture.
- Definition of all relevant reference points and interfaces to support different collaboration scenarios between 5G System operator and third-party media communication service provider, including but not limited to an Augmented Reality (AR) media communication service provider.
- Call flows and procedures for different real-time communication service types.
- Specification to support functionalities relevant to AR such as split-rendering or spatial computing on top of a 5G System based on this architecture.
