PROXIMITY SERVICE COMMUNICATION METHOD, MANAGEMENT NETWORK ELEMENT, TERMINAL DEVICE, AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18154337 titled 'PROXIMITY SERVICE COMMUNICATION METHOD, MANAGEMENT NETWORK ELEMENT, TERMINAL DEVICE, AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an application that enables proximity service communication using a sidelink in a communication system. The application determines whether a terminal device can use a specific application through a sidelink based on its location information. This allows for more efficient use of sidelink communication resources.

  • Proximity service communication method using a sidelink
  • Communication apparatus for managing communication resources
  • Communication system that enables efficient use of sidelink communication
  • Determination of terminal device's eligibility for using a specific application through a sidelink based on its location information

Potential Applications

  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices that require proximity-based communication
  • Smart cities where devices can communicate with each other in close proximity
  • Industrial applications where machines and equipment need to communicate wirelessly

Problems Solved

  • Efficient allocation of sidelink communication resources
  • Avoiding unnecessary sidelink communication for devices located outside the designated geographic area
  • Preventing congestion and interference in the communication system

Benefits

  • Improved efficiency and reliability of proximity service communication
  • Optimal use of sidelink resources, reducing congestion and interference
  • Enhanced user experience with faster and more reliable communication


Original Abstract Submitted

This application provides a proximity service communication method, a communication apparatus, and a communication system. When a terminal device requests a communication resource corresponding to a first sidelink, a management network element may determine, based on location information of the terminal device, whether the terminal device is located in a geographic area in which the terminal device can use a first application through a sidelink, to determine whether to provide a proximity service parameter for the terminal device. This limits, at an application granularity, sidelink communication used by the terminal device.
