Non guaranteed QoS not expected to be a real challenge
• Restaurant / Coffee shop / … Open… does not mean immediately available... Need to connect first
Wi-Fi infrastructure may not be designed for voice. Coverage holes, Scalability, QoElikely to become an issue in some cases.
Backhaul capacity issues
• Enterprise 802.11n and now ac providing high capacity network
Security challenges (many enterprises block IPSec to external peers)
Require a Wi-Fi network designed with voice in mind to provide a good QoE

PGW with s2b support
PCRF
IMS Core infrastructure

VoWiFi capable UEs
HSS
• VoWiFi capable UE pre-loaded with operator profile
• UE discovers the ePDG using DNS lookup for ePDG FQDN – Statically or dynamically configured in Operator File
• UE establishes IPSec tunnel to ePDG
• ePDG sets up a PDN session to PGW on behalf of UE
• PGW allocates IP address and manages P-CSCF discovery – provides P-CSCF details to UE
• UE SIP registers with SBC/P-CSCF
• UE makes/receives call via IMS/TAS• P-CSCF discovery over IKE or operator profile

ePDG Basics – Main Functions
• User Authentication and Authorization IKEv2 based on EAP-AKA
De-capsulation/Encapsulation of packets for IPSec
Tunnel authentication and authorization
APN authorization and PGW selection
Provide PGW identity for static address
• Tunnel and QoS mapping between S2b bearers and access network Mapping of S2b bearer(s) to SWu (IPSec) sessions
Mapping of dedicated bearers on S2b using TFT packet filters
DSCP marking and/or 802.1p tagging for QoS
• Routing of downlink packets towards the SWu instance associated toconnection; Transport level packet marking in the uplink;
Enforcement of QoS policies based on information received over S2b control plane

PGW Function for VoWiFi service
• UE IP address allocation Sent to UE via ePDG
PCEF - Acts on instruction from IMS (via PCRF) to allocatededicated bearer for Voice
• DNS and P-CSCF server address discovery (andP-CSCF restoration)
• Anchor point for session HO between LTE andWi-Fi – S6b interface required
• Accounting - PGW CDRs – If required, typicallyIMS CDRs are used
• QoS implementation based on QCI

ePDG Selection Procedures
• UE obtains DNS server address from AP
• UE generates ePDG FQDN andqueries DNS
• DNS returns IP address(es) ofePDG(s)
• UE initiates IPSec connection to
