Method and Apparatus for Establishing Guaranteed Bit Rate (GBR) Quality of Service (QoS) Flow in Session - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17951765 titled 'Method and Apparatus for Establishing Guaranteed Bit Rate (GBR) Quality of Service (QoS) Flow in Session

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for session management in a communication network. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The method involves a session management function (SMF) receiving information from an access and mobility management function (AMF).
  • The SMF obtains session management subscription information from a unified data management (UDM) module.
  • If dynamic policy and charging control (PCC) is not deployed, the SMF establishes a default guaranteed bit rate (GBR) quality of service (QoS) flow in the session based on the received information and either the session management subscription information or local session policy information of the SMF.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • This method can be applied in communication networks to manage sessions and ensure quality of service for different types of data flows.
  • It can be used in various network environments, such as mobile networks, to establish default QoS flows for different services.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The method solves the problem of managing sessions and ensuring QoS in a communication network.
  • It addresses the challenge of establishing default QoS flows when dynamic policy and charging control is not deployed.

Benefits of this technology:

  • The method simplifies session management by providing a default QoS flow based on received information and session management subscription or local policy information.
  • It improves the efficiency of managing sessions and ensures a guaranteed bit rate for data flows.
  • The method can be easily implemented in existing communication networks without the need for dynamic policy and charging control.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method includes: receiving, by a session management function (SMF), first information from an access and mobility management function (AMF); obtaining, by the SMF, protocol data unit (PDU) session management subscription information from a unified data management (UDM) module; and when dynamic policy and charging control (PCC) is not deployed, establishing, by the SMF based on the first information and at least one of the PDU session management subscription information or local PDU session policy information of the SMF, a default guaranteed bit rate (GBR) quality of service (QoS) flow in the PDU session.
