COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17965835 titled 'COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an application that allows different terminal devices in different mobile networks to have separate configuration policies. Here are the bullet points to explain the patent/innovation:

  • The application provides a communication method and apparatus for configuring different policies for terminal devices in different mobile networks.
  • A core network element receives a registration request from a terminal device and sends a registration response to the device.
  • The registration response instructs the terminal device to set the first information, which indicates a selection policy for choosing a CAG (Cellular Access Gateway) when accessing a specific mobile network.
  • The terminal device sets the first information based on the registration response received from the core network element.
  • The second information is also provided by the core network element and indicates a selection policy for choosing a CAG when accessing the same mobile network.
  • The method allows for separate configuration of policies for different terminal devices in different mobile networks.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Mobile network operators can use this technology to provide customized policies for different types of terminal devices.
  • Enterprises can utilize this technology to configure specific policies for different devices used by their employees.
  • Service providers can offer differentiated services based on the policies set for different terminal devices.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The technology solves the problem of having a uniform policy for all terminal devices in a mobile network, allowing for customization based on device type or user requirements.
  • It addresses the challenge of managing different policies for different terminal devices in a multi-network environment.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Allows for flexibility in configuring policies for different terminal devices, enhancing the user experience.
  • Enables better management and control of network resources by tailoring policies to specific device types.
  • Provides a more efficient and optimized network experience for users based on their device capabilities.


Original Abstract Submitted

This application provides a communication method and apparatus, to separately configure, for different terminal devices in different public land mobile networks PLMNs, different policies. The method includes: A core network element receives a registration request from a terminal device, and then sends a registration response to the terminal device based on first information and/or second information, where the registration response indicates the terminal device to set the first information. The terminal device sets the first information based on the registration response. The first information indicates a selection policy that is determined by the core network element and that is of selecting a CAG by the terminal device when the terminal device accesses a first PLMN, and the second information indicates a selection policy that is determined by the core network element and that is of selecting a CAG by the terminal device when the terminal device accesses the first PLMN.
