APPARATUSES, METHODS, COMPUTER PROGRAMS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR SUPPORTING MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE ACCESS TO NETWORK SLICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18375946 titled 'APPARATUSES, METHODS, COMPUTER PROGRAMS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR SUPPORTING MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE ACCESS TO NETWORK SLICES

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes a method where a User Equipment (UE) determines whether to request access to a Mutually Exclusive Access to Network Slices (MEANS) group from a CM-IDLE state or from a CM-CONNECTED state.

  • User Equipment (UE) determines access to a Mutually Exclusive Access to Network Slices (MEANS) group.
  • Decision is made from either a CM-IDLE state or a CM-CONNECTED state.

Potential Applications

The technology described in this patent application could be applied in the telecommunications industry for managing access to network slices efficiently.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient management of access to Mutually Exclusive Access to Network Slices (MEANS) groups. 2. Streamlining decision-making process for User Equipment (UE) in different states.

Benefits

1. Improved network resource allocation. 2. Enhanced user experience with optimized access to network slices.

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing network resource allocation in 5G networks for improved performance and user satisfaction.

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to methods for managing access to network slices in telecommunications systems, but specific examples are not provided in this context.

Unanswered Questions

How does this method impact network efficiency in comparison to existing methods?

The efficiency of this method in comparison to existing methods in terms of network resource allocation and user experience is not explicitly discussed in the abstract.

What are the potential challenges in implementing this method in real-world network environments?

The abstract does not address the potential challenges that may arise in implementing this method in real-world network environments, such as compatibility issues or scalability concerns.
