SUPPORTING INFORMATION CENTRIC NETWORKING IN NEXT GENERATION CELLULAR NETWORKS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240023046 titled 'SUPPORTING INFORMATION CENTRIC NETWORKING IN NEXT GENERATION CELLULAR NETWORKS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes technology for an Information Centric Networking Gateway (ICN-GW) that can modify ICN messages received from user equipment in a 5G cellular network.

  • The ICN-GW can decode ICN messages received from the user equipment via a Next Generation NodeB (gNB) and an ICN Point of Attachment (ICN-POA).
  • The ICN-GW can modify the ICN message to produce a modified ICN message.
  • The ICN-GW can encode the modified ICN message to route it to a data network.

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in telecommunications, data networking, and content delivery systems.

Problems Solved

1. Efficient modification and routing of ICN messages in a 5G network. 2. Seamless integration of ICN technology with existing cellular networks.

Benefits

1. Improved data delivery and network efficiency. 2. Enhanced user experience with faster content retrieval. 3. Simplified management of ICN messages in a 5G environment.

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing content delivery networks, enhancing mobile data services, and improving network performance for service providers.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art may include patents or publications related to ICN technology, 5G networks, and network gateways.

Unanswered Questions

How does the ICN-GW ensure data security during message modification and routing?

The patent application does not provide details on the security measures implemented by the ICN-GW to protect data during the modification and routing processes.

What are the scalability limitations of the ICN-GW in handling a large volume of ICN messages?

The patent application does not address the scalability of the ICN-GW in managing a high volume of ICN messages in a 5G network.


Original Abstract Submitted

technology for an information centric networking gateway (icn-gw) operable to modify an icn message received from a user equipment (ue) in a fifth generation (5g) cellular network is disclosed. the icn-gw can decode the icn message received from the ue via a next generation nodeb (gnb) and an icn point of attachment (icn-poa). the icn-gw can modify the icn message to produce a modified icn message. the icn-gw can encode the modified icn message to route the modified icn message to a data network.
