Soft network architecture for mobile (SAME) is a mobile packet core network, which bridges current legacy mobile networks toward future networks. This Recommendation defines design principles of SAME, and its key requirements, i.e., flexible traffic steering, virtualization of SAME network functions, SAME network slice, and separation of control function and forwarding function.

SAME scenarios and problem statements of current mobile packet core network are introduced in the appendices.
