Original Abstract Submitted
The embodiments herein relate to methods, network functions, and computer readable medium for handling dynamic group membership for an application group in a mobile communication system. In one embodiment, there proposes a method performed by a network function implementing a policy control function, comprising: receiving, from a network function implementing a terminal management function and/or a network function implementing a data repository function, a notification message indicating one or more changed application groups, wherein the notification message comprises one or more internal group identifiers each of which identifies respective one of the one or more changed application groups. With embodiments herein, it enables the PCF to properly handle all the service procedures that are related to the UE subscription to respective application groups.
