Adaptive Public Land Mobile Network Management for Varying Network Conditions - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240137842 titled 'Adaptive Public Land Mobile Network Management for Varying Network Conditions

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure describes apparatuses and techniques of adaptive PLMN management for varying network conditions. In some aspects, a PLMN manager of a User Equipment (UE) searches, as part of a registration procedure, a data repository of PLMN information that includes a PLMN blocked from registration for a duration of time and determines that the PLMN is blocked due to a signal-related condition with a cell of the PLMN (e.g., weak signal). The PLMN manager then determines, during the duration of time, that the signal-related condition between the UE and the cell has improved. In response to the improvement, the PLMN manager unblocks the PLMN before expiration of the duration of time. By so doing, the UE may reattempt registration with the unblocked PLMN at least once before the duration of time expires, which may allow the UE to register more quickly and reestablish network services.

  • PLMN manager searches data repository for PLMN information during registration procedure
  • Determines PLMN is blocked due to signal-related condition with a cell
  • Improves signal-related condition between UE and cell
  • Unblocks PLMN before expiration of time duration
  • UE can reattempt registration with unblocked PLMN to reestablish network services

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in mobile networks, telecommunications, and IoT devices to improve network registration processes and enhance user experience.

Problems Solved

1. Faster registration process for users 2. Improved network connectivity and services for users

Benefits

1. Enhanced user experience 2. Efficient network management 3. Improved connectivity for IoT devices

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing network registration processes in mobile devices Enhancing network management in telecommunications companies Improving connectivity in IoT devices

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of signal strength indicators in mobile devices to determine network connectivity and optimize network registration processes.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact battery life of devices?

The article does not address the potential impact of this technology on the battery life of devices. It would be important to understand if the adaptive PLMN management has any effect on power consumption.

Are there any privacy concerns related to the data repository access during registration?

The article does not discuss any privacy implications of accessing the data repository during the registration process. It would be essential to consider any privacy concerns that may arise from this access.
