METHOD FOR AUTHENTICATING ACCESS LAYER ON BASIS OF PUBLIC KEY INFRASTRUCTURE IN CONSIDERATION OF HANDOVER IN NEXT-GENERATION WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18035357 titled 'METHOD FOR AUTHENTICATING ACCESS LAYER ON BASIS OF PUBLIC KEY INFRASTRUCTURE IN CONSIDERATION OF HANDOVER IN NEXT-GENERATION WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure is about a communication system (5G or 6G) that supports higher data transmission rates compared to 4G systems like LTE. The system focuses on the operation method of a serving base station during handover for mutual authentication in an access stratum (AS) section.
- The serving base station receives a measurement report from a terminal.
- It confirms if the terminal meets the handover conditions based on the measurement report.
- If the terminal meets the handover conditions, it checks if the target base station, to which the terminal will be connected during handover, belongs to the same authentication area (AA) as the serving base station.
- It then transmits a handover command to the terminal, which is configured differently depending on whether the target base station and the serving base station belong to the same AA.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Mobile network operators can use this technology to enhance the handover process in their 5G or 6G communication systems.
- It can improve the efficiency and reliability of handovers between base stations, ensuring seamless connectivity for mobile devices.
Problems solved by this technology:
- The technology addresses the need for a smooth handover process during a mobile device's transition from one base station to another.
- It ensures that the handover is only initiated when the terminal meets the necessary conditions and the target base station belongs to the same authentication area.
Benefits of this technology:
- Faster and more reliable handovers result in improved user experience, especially during high-speed mobility scenarios.
- The technology enables efficient utilization of network resources by ensuring that handovers are only performed when necessary.
- It enhances the overall performance and capacity of the communication system by supporting higher data transmission rates.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting higher data transmission rates than 4G communication systems such as LTE. In a wireless communication system according to an embodiment of the present invention, an operation method of a serving base station for mutual authentication in an access stratum (AS) section during handover comprises the steps of: receiving a measurement report from a terminal; confirming whether the terminal meets handover conditions on the basis of the measurement report; if the terminal meets the handover conditions, confirming whether a target base station, to which the terminal is to be connected during handover, belongs to the same authentication area (AA) as the serving base station; and transmitting, to the terminal, a handover command that is configured differently according to whether the target base station and the serving base station belong to the same AA.
