COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM SUPPORTING EDGE COMPUTING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17959691 titled 'COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM SUPPORTING EDGE COMPUTING

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a communication method performed by an edge enabler client (EEC) in a wireless communication system that supports edge computing. Here are the key points:

  • The method involves receiving an AC registration request message from an application client (AC) executed in a user equipment (UE).
  • The AC registration request message includes an AC profile, an edge configuration server (ECS) address, and user consent on whether to allow external exposure of the AC profile.
  • Based on the AC registration request message, an ECS is selected for performing service provisioning.
  • A service provisioning procedure is then performed for the selected ECS.
  • The method also includes EEC registration and edge application server (EAS) discovery for an edge enabler server (EES) obtained through the service provisioning procedure.
  • Finally, the EAS information obtained from the EES is transmitted to the AC through the EAS discovery.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Edge computing in wireless communication systems
  • Service provisioning for application clients
  • Communication between edge enabler clients and edge enabler servers

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Simplifies the communication process between application clients and edge enabler servers
  • Enables efficient service provisioning for edge computing
  • Facilitates the discovery of edge application servers

Benefits of this technology:

  • Streamlines the registration and discovery process for edge enabler clients
  • Enhances the overall efficiency and performance of edge computing systems
  • Improves the user experience by enabling seamless communication between application clients and edge enabler servers.


Original Abstract Submitted

A communication method performed by an edge enabler client (EEC) of a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system supporting edge computing is provided. The communication method includes receiving, from an application client (AC) executed in the UE, an AC registration request message including an AC profile, an edge configuration server (ECS) address, and user consent on whether to allow external exposure of the AC profile, selecting an ECS for performing service provisioning, based on the AC registration request message, performing a service provisioning procedure for the selected ECS, performing EEC registration and edge application server (EAS) discovery for an edge enabler server (EES) obtained through the service provisioning procedure, and transmitting EAS information obtained from the EES through the EAS discovery to the AC.
