METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING ACCESS TRAFFIC STEERING FUNCTION IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18157757 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING ACCESS TRAFFIC STEERING FUNCTION IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure describes a communication method and system that combines 5G technology with Internet of Things (IoT) technology to support higher data rates and enable intelligent services in various domains such as smart homes, smart cities, and healthcare.

  • The method and system aim to converge 5G communication systems with IoT technology.
  • It supports higher data rates beyond what is possible in 4G systems.
  • It enables intelligent services in areas like smart homes, smart buildings, smart cities, smart cars, healthcare, digital education, smart retail, and security.
  • The disclosure proposes methods for registering a user equipment (UE) in an AMf that does not support ATSSS (registration procedure).
  • It suggests a method for an old AMF to identify the registration and release an MA PDU session.
  • It also suggests a method for the UE to identify the registration and release the MA PDU session in a wireless communication system.

Potential Applications

This technology has potential applications in various domains, including:

  • Smart homes: Enabling seamless connectivity and automation of devices within a home.
  • Smart cities: Facilitating efficient management of resources, infrastructure, and services in urban areas.
  • Healthcare: Supporting remote patient monitoring, telemedicine, and efficient healthcare delivery.
  • Smart retail: Enhancing customer experience through personalized services and targeted marketing.
  • Security and safety services: Enabling advanced surveillance systems and emergency response mechanisms.

Problems Solved

This technology addresses several challenges, including:

  • Supporting higher data rates: The system allows for faster and more reliable communication, enabling high-bandwidth applications.
  • Convergence of 5G and IoT: It integrates the capabilities of 5G networks with IoT technology, enabling seamless connectivity and intelligent services.
  • Registration in non-ATSSS supporting AMFs: The methods proposed in the disclosure allow for smooth registration and release of MA PDU sessions in such scenarios.

Benefits

The use of this technology offers several benefits, including:

  • Enhanced connectivity: Users can experience faster and more reliable communication, supporting high-bandwidth applications.
  • Intelligent services: The convergence of 5G and IoT enables the development of intelligent services in various domains, improving efficiency and convenience.
  • Seamless registration: The proposed methods ensure smooth registration and release of MA PDU sessions, even in scenarios where the AMF does not support ATSSS.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. The disclosure proposes, when a UE is registered in an AMf which does not support ATSSS (registration procedure), a method by which, an old AMF identifies the registration and releases an MA PDU session and a method by which the UE identifies the registration and releases the MA PDU session in a wireless communication system according to an embodiment.
