DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING EMERGENCY CALL SERVICE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORK - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17971888 titled 'DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING EMERGENCY CALL SERVICE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORK
Simplified Explanation
The patent application relates to a communication system (5G or 6G) that supports high data transmission rates. It describes a method for a user equipment (UE) to make an emergency call in a non-public network. Here are the key points:
- The UE receives information from an access and mobility management function (AMF) about supported non-public networks and whether they support emergency calls.
- The UE sends a registration request message to the AMF, indicating its request for an emergency call service in a non-public network.
- The UE receives a registration accept message from the AMF, which includes an emergency call number and information about whether the non-public network supports the emergency call service.
- Based on the information received, the UE performs the emergency call in the non-public network.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Emergency services: This method allows users to make emergency calls using non-public networks, which can be useful in situations where public networks are congested or unavailable.
- Private networks: Non-public networks can be used by organizations or industries that require secure and reliable communication, such as government agencies, healthcare facilities, or industrial plants.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Congestion in public networks: By enabling emergency calls in non-public networks, this method provides an alternative communication channel during emergencies, reducing the load on public networks.
- Security and reliability: Non-public networks can offer higher levels of security and reliability compared to public networks, ensuring that emergency calls are successfully made.
Benefits of this technology:
- Faster emergency response: By utilizing non-public networks, emergency calls can be made more quickly, improving response times and potentially saving lives.
- Enhanced communication capabilities: Non-public networks often have higher data transmission rates, allowing for better quality emergency calls with features like video or location sharing.
- Improved network efficiency: By offloading emergency calls to non-public networks, public networks can operate more efficiently, ensuring that other users' communication is not disrupted during emergencies.
Original Abstract Submitted
The disclosure relates to a fifth-generation (5G) or sixth-generation (6G) communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rates. A method by a user equipment (UE) configured to perform an emergency call in a non-public network is provided. The method includes receiving, from an access and mobility management function (AMF), information related to at least one supported non-public network and information indicating whether the at least one supported non-public network supports an emergency call, transmitting, to the AMF, a registration request message including information indicating that the UE requests an emergency call service in a non-public network, receiving, from the AMF, a registration accept message including an emergency call number, identifying whether the registration accept message includes information indicating that the non-public network supports the emergency call service, and performing the emergency call in the non-public network based on a result of the identification.
