METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROVIDING AUTHENTICATED NETWORK SLICE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17995846 titled 'METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROVIDING AUTHENTICATED NETWORK SLICE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method for accessing network slices by a terminal device. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:
- The method involves receiving a request from a terminal device to access one or more network slices.
- The terminal subscription information is received, which includes details about default network slices subscribed by the terminal.
- The method identifies if any of the network slices subscribed by the terminal are part of an authentication procedure.
- If all the network slices are part of the authentication procedure, they are added to a pending network slice list.
- An authentication procedure is performed based on either the pending network slice list or the default network slices.
- Based on the result of the authentication procedure, the method determines which network slices are available to the terminal.
Potential applications of this technology:
- This method can be used in telecommunications networks to provide secure access to network slices for terminal devices.
- It can be applied in 5G networks to enable efficient management and authentication of network slices for different devices.
Problems solved by this technology:
- The method solves the problem of managing and authenticating network slices for terminal devices.
- It ensures that only authorized network slices are accessed by the terminal, enhancing security and preventing unauthorized access.
Benefits of this technology:
- The method simplifies the process of accessing network slices by automating the authentication procedure.
- It improves the efficiency of network slice management by adding pending network slices to a list for further processing.
- The method enhances security by performing authentication based on the pending network slice list or default network slices.
Original Abstract Submitted
Provided is a method including: receiving a request for one or more first network slices to be accessed by a terminal; receiving terminal subscription information including information about one or more third network slices subscribed as a default; identifying whether one or more second network slices subscribed by the terminal included in the one or more first network slices are an authentication procedure target; when all of the one or more second network slices are the authentication procedure target, adding all of the one or more second network slices to a pending network slice list; performing an authentication procedure based on at least one of the pending network slice list or the one or more third network slices; and determining, based on a result of the authentication procedure, one or more network slices available to the terminal.
