SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SELECTING 5G N3IWF SERVER BASED ON CONTEXT-AWARE SELECTION CRITERIA - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17456528 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SELECTING 5G N3IWF SERVER BASED ON CONTEXT-AWARE SELECTION CRITERIA

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for selecting a specific Non-3GPP InterWorking Function (N3IWF) server for a mobile device to connect to in a 5G network. Here are the key points:

  • The method involves creating a decision matrix that includes various criteria for selecting an N3IWF server from a group of servers.
  • The decision matrix includes multiple N3IWF capabilities as criteria for selection.
  • The method allows for dynamically adjusting the weights of the criteria in the decision matrix based on adjustment factors.
  • A multi-attribute decision making technique is applied to the decision matrix to determine the best N3IWF server for the mobile device to connect to.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • 5G network infrastructure optimization
  • Enhancing mobile device connectivity in 5G networks

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficiently selecting the most suitable N3IWF server for a mobile device in a 5G network
  • Optimizing network performance and connectivity for mobile devices

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved network performance and reliability for mobile devices in 5G networks
  • Enhanced user experience with faster and more stable connections
  • Efficient utilization of network resources


Original Abstract Submitted

A method includes generating a decision matrix for selection of a particular Non-3GPP InterWorking Function (N3IWF) server among a plurality of N3IWF servers, the decision matrix having multiple criteria including multiple N3IWF capabilities. The method also includes dynamically weighting at least one of the multiple criteria in the decision matrix, based on one or more adjustment factors. The method further includes applying a multi-attribute decision making technique to the decision matrix to select the particular N3IWF server, among the plurality of N3IWF servers, for a mobile device to connect to in a 5G network.
