Hi Samarth, yes, we can certainly point you in the right direction! We have two blogs on this topic which we think you will find useful:

Thanks for your question, Interworking between a Trusted Non 3GPP network and the 5G Core is supported in a similar way to that of 4G. For example, a Trusted Wi-Fi Access Point will connect to a TNGF (Trusted Non 3GPP Gateway Function) via the Ta reference and this in turn will connect to both the AMF via the N2 reference and the UPF via the N3 reference. As such, NAS signalling can be passed between the device (via Wi-Fi) to the AMF whilst user plane traffic will be passed to the UPF for onward transfer to the external data network.
Simple and beautiful explanation. Thank you!
Nice video.
Can you please explain how can we integrate 5G and satellite for marine utility?

How are we supposed to connect existing SaMOG with 5G core as there is no mention of S2a interface ?
