5G GUTI






GUTI -Globally Unique Temporary Identifier
AMF is in-charge to assign GUTI to an UE and it is common to both 3GPP and non-3GPP access.

5G GUTI (80 bits) = GUAMI + 5G TMSI



GUAMI - Globally Unique AMF Identifier

AMF Region ID: identifies the region
AMF Set ID: identifies the AMF Set within the AMF Region
AMF Pointer: identifies the AMF within the AMF Set.

GUAMI = AMF Region ID + AMF Set ID + AMF Pointer ID



TMSI identifies the UE with in the AMF

Since GUTI is longer, to enable more efficient radio resources (especially in Paging and Service Request), new identifier called 5G-S-TMSI is created.


S-TMSI (48 bits)= AMF Set ID + AMF Pointer ID + 5G TMSI
