RESUME REQUEST FOLLOWED BY RELEASE AND REDIRECT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18531793 titled 'RESUME REQUEST FOLLOWED BY RELEASE AND REDIRECT

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes methods and systems for resume request followed by release and redirect in a telecommunications network. The method involves sending a request to resume communication while in an RRC INACTIVE state, receiving an instruction to release and redirect from the base station without entering an RRC CONNECTED state, and performing cell selection in a Radio Access Technology to establish or resume communication with the selected cell.

  • User Equipment communicates within a telecommunications network.
  • Method involves sending a request to resume communication in an RRC INACTIVE state.
  • Instruction to release and redirect is received without entering an RRC CONNECTED state.
  • Cell selection in a Radio Access Technology is performed to establish or resume communication with the selected cell.

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in mobile telecommunications networks to improve communication efficiency and network handover processes.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient resume request and release in a telecommunications network. 2. Seamless handover between cells without entering a connected state.

Benefits

1. Improved network efficiency. 2. Enhanced user experience with smoother handover processes.

Potential Commercial Applications

The technology can be utilized by telecommunications companies to enhance the performance and reliability of their networks, leading to better customer satisfaction and retention.

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to handover processes in telecommunications networks, but specific examples are not provided in the abstract.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact battery life in mobile devices?

The abstract does not mention the potential impact of this technology on the battery life of User Equipment.

Are there any limitations to the number of cells that can be selected for communication?

The abstract does not address any limitations on the number of cells that can be selected for communication in the described method.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods and systems for resume request followed by release and redirect are herein provided. According to one aspect, a method performed by a User Equipment for communicating within a telecommunications network comprises: while in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) INACTIVE state, sending, to a base station, a request to resume communication, and, without entering an RRC CONNECED state, receiving, from the base station, an instruction to release and redirect; and in response to receiving the instruction to release and redirect, performing cell selection in a Radio Access Technology and attempting to establish or resume communication with the selected cell.
