METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING USER CONSENT IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18264964 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING USER CONSENT IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application abstract describes a method for providing user consent for UE in a 5G network by a UE. The method involves receiving a request message from a network apparatus to check if the UE can provide subscribed event information to a NWDAF, determining if consent can be provided, and sending a response message with a consent indication.
- Explanation of the patent application:
- - Method for obtaining user consent in a 5G network for providing subscribed event information to a NWDAF
- - Involves communication between network apparatus and UE to determine consent
- - UE sends a response message with a consent indication to allow the network apparatus to provide the information
- Potential Applications:
- Enhanced user privacy protection in 5G networks - Efficient management of event information subscriptions in network systems
- Problems Solved:
- Ensuring user consent is obtained before sharing event information - Streamlining the process of obtaining consent in a network environment
- Benefits:
- Improved user control over their data sharing preferences - Enhanced security and privacy measures in 5G networks
- Potential Commercial Applications:
- Optimizing User Consent Management in 5G Networks
- Potential Commercial Applications:
- Possible Prior Art:
- Prior art related to user consent management in network systems - Existing methods for obtaining user consent for data sharing in communication networks
- Unanswered Questions:
- How does this method handle user consent for different types of event information?
- The abstract does not specify how the method distinguishes between different types of event information and their associated consent requirements.
- What mechanisms are in place to ensure the security of user consent data during transmission?
- The abstract does not detail the security measures implemented to protect user consent data while being transmitted between the UE and network apparatus.
Original Abstract Submitted
The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. Embodiments herein is to provide a method for providing user consent for UE in a 5G network () by a UE (). The method includes receiving a request message from a network apparatus () to check with the UE () whether the network apparatus () can provide subscribed event information to a NWDAF (). The request message includes the subscribed event information and a consumer NF ID to obtain consent from the UE (). Further, the method includes determining, by the UE (), using the preconfigured data whether a consent can be provided for the subscribed event information to the NWDAF (). Further, the method includes sending, by the UE (), a response message to the network apparatus (), wherein the response message comprises a consent indication allowing the network apparatus () to provide the subscribed event information to the NWDAF ().
