USER EQUIPMENT SLICE-SPECIFIC CELL SELECTION AND RESELECTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18263487 titled 'USER EQUIPMENT SLICE-SPECIFIC CELL SELECTION AND RESELECTION

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure relates to wireless communication and how user equipment (UE) can make cell selection or reselection based on supported slice information received from a base station.

  • User equipment (UE) can receive supported slice information from a base station.
  • UE can perform cell selection or reselection based on the supported slice information.
  • The determination of high priority slices for the UE influences the cell selection or reselection process.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in:

  • 5G networks
  • Mobile communication systems
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices

Problems Solved

This technology helps in:

  • Efficient cell selection/reselection process
  • Prioritizing high priority slices for better network performance

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved network efficiency
  • Enhanced user experience
  • Optimal resource allocation

Potential Commercial Applications

This technology can be used in:

  • Telecommunication companies
  • Network equipment manufacturers
  • IoT device manufacturers

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of network slicing in 5G networks to allocate resources efficiently.

Unanswered Questions

How does the supported slice information impact the cell selection process in different network conditions?

The abstract does not provide specific details on how the supported slice information influences cell selection in varying network conditions.

What are the specific criteria for determining high priority slices for the UE?

The abstract does not mention the exact criteria used to identify high priority slices for the user equipment.


Original Abstract Submitted

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, supported slice information. The UE may perform, in connection with a determination that one or more intended slices for the UE include a high priority slice, at least one of cell selection or cell reselection based at least in part on the supported slice information. Numerous other aspects are described.
