COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR OBTAINING LOAD INFORMATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18496638 titled 'COMMUNICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR OBTAINING LOAD INFORMATION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a system where a second access network device determines load information and sends it to a first access network device. The first access network device then uses this information to make decisions such as energy saving operations or load balancing. The load information pertains to a cell in the second access network device associated with a first-type terminal device capable of accessing both network devices.

  • The system involves two access network devices belonging to different systems.
  • Load information is determined by the second access network device and sent to the first access network device.
  • The first access network device uses the load information to make decisions regarding energy saving or load balancing.
  • The load information is associated with a first-type terminal device capable of accessing both network devices.

Potential Applications

  • Network optimization
  • Energy efficiency improvements
  • Load balancing in network systems

Problems Solved

  • Inefficient network resource allocation
  • Lack of coordination between different access network devices
  • Energy wastage in network operations

Benefits

  • Improved network performance
  • Enhanced energy efficiency
  • Better resource utilization


Original Abstract Submitted

A second access network device determines first load information and sends the first load information to a first access network device. Correspondingly, the first access network device receives the first load information, and uses the first load information. For example, the first access network device determines, based on the first load information, whether to perform an energy saving operation or load balancing. The first load information indicates load that is in a cell of the second access network device and that is associated with a first-type terminal device, the first-type terminal device has a capability of accessing the first access network device and the second access network device, and the first access network device and the second access network device belong to different systems.
