APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING LOW-LATENCY LOCATION INFORMATION SERVICE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17912361 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING LOW-LATENCY LOCATION INFORMATION SERVICE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure is about a method for operating an access and mobility function (AMF) in a wireless communication system, specifically in a 5G or pre-5G system. The goal is to support a higher data transmission rate compared to 4G systems like LTE.
- The method involves receiving a mobile originated location request message from user equipment (UE) which includes information about the quality of service (QoS) for location services.
- The AMF also receives a mobile terminated location request message from a gateway mobile location center (GMLC) or a network exposure function (NEF), which includes QoS information for location services.
- Based on the received QoS information from both messages, the AMF determines the necessary updates for the UE's configuration.
- The AMF then sends a UE configuration update command message to the UE, instructing it to make the necessary configuration changes.
- In response to receiving a UE configuration update complete message from the UE, the AMF sends a radio access network (RAN) update message to the RAN associated with the UE.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Improved location-based services: The method allows for efficient handling of location requests from the UE, ensuring that the necessary configuration updates are made to support accurate and reliable location-based services.
- Enhanced data transmission rate: By operating in a 5G or pre-5G system, the method enables a higher data transmission rate, facilitating faster and more efficient communication between the UE and the network.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Inefficient location request handling: The method addresses the issue of handling location requests from the UE by providing a streamlined process for determining the necessary configuration updates.
- Limited data transmission rate: The method solves the problem of limited data transmission rate in 4G systems by operating in a 5G or pre-5G system, allowing for higher data rates and improved communication performance.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved user experience: By supporting a higher data transmission rate, the method enhances the overall user experience by enabling faster and more reliable communication.
- Efficient network management: The method optimizes the handling of location requests and configuration updates, leading to more efficient network management and resource allocation.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure relates to a 5generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system for supporting a data transmission rate higher than that of a post-4generation (4G) communication system such as long term evolution (LTE). According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, provided is a method for operating an access and mobility function (AMF) in a wireless communication system, comprising the steps of: receiving, from user equipment (UE), a mobile originated location request message including first location quality of service (QoS) information; receiving, from a gateway mobile location center (GMLC) or a network exposure function (NEF), a mobile terminated location request message including second location QoS information; determining UE configuration update on the basis of the first location QoS information and the second location QoS information; transmitting a UE configuration update command message to the UE; and transmitting a radio access network (RAN) update message to a RAN related to the UE in response to the reception of a UE configuration update complete message.
