Updating a background data transfer policy negotiated between an application function and a core network - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18461952 titled 'Updating a background data transfer policy negotiated between an application function and a core network
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for updating a background data transfer (BDT) policy in a telecommunication network. The method involves a Policy Control Function (PCF) receiving a notification of degraded network performance and determining that the negotiated BDT policy is affected by the degraded performance. The PCF then determines updated BDT policy information based on operator policies and sends it to the Application Function (AF).
- The method updates a BDT policy negotiated between an AF and a CN.
- It responds to degraded network performance by determining the impact on the negotiated BDT policy.
- The method provides updated BDT policy information, including candidate BDT policies and updated conditions.
- The updated BDT policy information is sent to the AF.
Potential Applications
- Telecommunication networks
- Mobile networks
- Network performance optimization
Problems Solved
- Updating BDT policies in response to degraded network performance
- Ensuring that negotiated BDT policies are not negatively affected by network issues
Benefits
- Improved network performance during degraded conditions
- Efficient utilization of network resources
- Enhanced user experience during network disruptions
Original Abstract Submitted
Embodiments include methods of updating a background data transfer (BDT) policy negotiated between an application function (AF) and a core network (CN) of a telecommunication network. Such methods can be performed by a Policy Control Function (PCF) of the CN and can include, in response to receiving a notification of degraded network performance of a network area, determining that the negotiated BDT policy is affected by the degraded network performance and an Application Service Provider (ASP) associated with the negotiated BDT policy requested a warning notification. Such methods can include determining, at least based on operator policies, updated BDT policy information for the negotiated BDT policy, wherein the updated BDT policy information comprises at least one of the following: at least one candidate BDT policy, and updated conditions for the negotiated BDT policy. Such methods can include sending the updated BDT policy information to the AF.
