QUALITY OF EXPERIENCE INDICATION AND REPORTING IN MOBILITY MANAGEMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18257571 titled 'QUALITY OF EXPERIENCE INDICATION AND REPORTING IN MOBILITY MANAGEMENT

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes techniques for incorporating Quality of Experience (QoE) in mobility management. A User Equipment (UE) can provide a QoE report to the network when a triggering event occurs, such as mobility management or environmental changes. The QoE report includes metrics like latency, throughput, error rates, frequency, handover frequency, power consumption, etc. The network can then take actions to restore QoE, such as sending mobility management commands to the UE.

  • QoE report triggered by events like mobility management or environmental changes
  • Metrics in the QoE report include latency, throughput, error rates, frequency, handover frequency, power consumption
  • Network can take actions to restore QoE, like sending mobility management commands

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in:

  • Telecommunications
  • Mobile networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices

Problems Solved

This technology addresses issues such as:

  • Ensuring a high Quality of Experience for users
  • Efficient mobility management in networks
  • Optimizing network performance based on user feedback

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved user satisfaction
  • Enhanced network performance
  • Proactive management of QoE issues

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications include:

  • Mobile network operators
  • IoT service providers
  • Telecommunication equipment manufacturers

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of QoE reports in network management systems to optimize user experience and network performance.

Unanswered Questions

How does the network determine the appropriate action to take based on the QoE report?

The patent application does not provide specific details on how the network decides on the actions to be taken after receiving the QoE report. It would be interesting to know the algorithms or decision-making processes involved in this aspect.

What are the specific environmental triggers that can lead to a QoE report being generated?

The patent application mentions environmental triggers as one of the events that can trigger a QoE report. It would be helpful to understand the different types of environmental changes or conditions that can impact the user experience and lead to the generation of a QoE report.


Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques to incorporate quality of experience (QoE) in mobility management are disclosed. A user equipment (UE) may provide a QoE report to network (e.g., cell) upon detection of a QoE report triggering event (e.g., mobility management, environmental trigger, etc.). The QoE report may comprise information related to QoE metrics such as uplink (UL) latency, UL throughput, UL error rate, downlink (DL) frequency, DL throughput, DL error rate, handover (HO) frequency, beam switch frequency, UE power consumption, etc. The network may take actions such as sending a mobility management command if it is decided that QoE should be restored to the UE.
