This document specifies a functional architecture for service enabler architecture layer (SEAL) over 3GPP networks to support vertical applications (e.g. V2X applications). This functional architecture will include common application plane and signalling plane entities. A set of common services (e.g. group management, configuration management, location management) specified in this document can be shared across vertical applications.

The SEAL functional architecture takes into consideration the common capabilities to support mission critical and other vertical applications.
