APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING INTERWORKING OF NETWORK SLICES IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18153582 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING INTERWORKING OF NETWORK SLICES IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for a control entity to select a network slice based on subscriber information and slice supportability. The steps involved in the method are as follows:

  • Receiving a create session request message from a Serving Gateway (S-GW) in response to a Packet Data Network (PDN) connectivity request message transmitted by a terminal.
  • Transmitting a request message for subscriber information to a storage entity, including identification information of the terminal.
  • Receiving subscription data of the terminal from the storage entity, corresponding to the identification information of the terminal.
  • Selecting at least one network slice based on the subscription data of the terminal and slice information supportable by the control entity.
  • Transmitting a create session response message including information of the selected at least one network slice.
  • The subscription data of the terminal includes information about a subscribed network slice of the terminal and information regarding whether the subscribed network slice of the terminal is supported in an Evolved Packet Core (EPC).

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Network slicing in telecommunications networks.
  • Optimizing network resources based on subscriber preferences and supportability.
  • Providing customized services to subscribers based on their network slice selection.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient selection of network slices based on subscriber preferences and supportability.
  • Streamlining the process of creating sessions and connecting terminals to network slices.
  • Enhancing the overall user experience by providing tailored network services.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved network efficiency and resource allocation.
  • Enhanced user satisfaction through personalized network services.
  • Simplified management of network slices and subscriber information.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method of selecting, by a control entity, a network slice is provided. The method includes receiving a create session request message from a Serving Gateway (S-GW) in response to a Packet Data Network (PDN) connectivity request message transmitted by a terminal, transmitting, to a storage entity, a request message for subscriber information including identification information of the terminal, receiving, from the storage entity, subscription data of the terminal corresponding to the identification information of the terminal, selecting at least one network slice based on the subscription data of the terminal and slice information supportable by the control entity, and transmitting a create session response message including information of the selected at least one network slice, wherein the subscription data of the terminal includes information about a subscribed network slice of the terminal and information regarding whether the subscribed network slice of the terminal is supported in an Evolved Packet Core (EPC).
