METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING NOTIFICATION TO TARGET AF IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18482549 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING NOTIFICATION TO TARGET AF IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method performed by an application function (AF) in a wireless communication system. The method involves receiving a late notification message from a session management function (SMF) indicating a change of a data network access identifier (DNAI). The AF then determines whether an AF change is needed based on the late notification message and transmits a response message to the SMF. The response message includes information for changing to a target AF for a target DNAI, based on the result of identifying the need for AF change.

  • The method involves receiving a late notification message indicating a change of a DNAI.
  • The AF determines whether an AF change is needed based on the late notification message.
  • The AF transmits a response message to the SMF.
  • The response message includes information for changing to a target AF for a target DNAI.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems
  • Session management in wireless networks

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient handling of late notification messages indicating DNAI changes
  • Seamless transition between AFs in response to DNAI changes

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved network efficiency
  • Enhanced user experience with seamless AF transitions


Original Abstract Submitted

A method performed by an application function (AF) in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes receiving, from a session management function (SMF), a late notification message indicating a change of a data network access identifier (DNAI), identifying whether an AF change is needed based on the late notification message, and transmitting, to the SMF, a response message including information for change to a target AF for a target DNAI based on a result of identifying that the AF change is needed.
