In a non-roaming scenario, the AMF may directly report the second indication information and the location information of the UE to the GMLC. If the second indication information indicates that positioning is completed, the GMLC sends the location information of the UE to the external client.
In Embodiment 4 shown in FIG. 8A and FIG. 8B, based on the schematic flowchart shown in FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B, the UDM performs digital signing, and the UDM delivers signed location privacy setting data to the AMF, to effectively prevent the GMLC from delivering incorrect action indication information, thereby effectively protecting the location information of the UE.
It may be understood that Embodiment 3 shown in FIG. 7A and FIG. 7B and Embodiment 4 shown in FIG. 8A and FIG. 8B are subsequent steps of Embodiment 1 shown in FIG. 5A and FIG. 5B, FIG. 5C and FIG. 5D, and Embodiment 2 shown in FIG. 6A and FIG. 6B.
The foregoing describes in detail the method in the embodiments of this application. The following provides an apparatus in the embodiments of this application.
