METHOD AND USER EQUIPMENT (UE) FOR SELECTING ACCESS NETWORK FOR ROUTING DATA OF THE UE: abstract simplified (18302409)

• This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18302409 Titled 'METHOD AND USER EQUIPMENT (UE) FOR SELECTING ACCESS NETWORK FOR ROUTING DATA OF THE UE'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a method for selecting the access network for routing data from a user's device. The method involves receiving a trigger indicating the need for network services, determining if the user's device is registered on both a 3GPP access network and a non-3GPP access network, and identifying the availability of network services in both networks. Based on this information, the method selects either the 3GPP access network or the non-3GPP access network for routing the data. The selection is based on the availability of network services or specific network parameters.

Original Abstract Submitted

A method of selecting access network for routing data of user equipment (UE) is provided. The method includes receiving trigger indicating a requirement of one or more network services. Further, the method includes determining that a UE is registered on a Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) access network and a non-3GPP access network simultaneously. The method includes identifying availability of one or more network services in the 3GPP access network and the non-3GPP access network. Thereafter, the method includes selecting one of, the 3GPP access network and the non-3GPP network, based on availability of one or more network services in one of, the 3GPP access network and the non-3GPP access network, or selecting one of, the 3GPP access network and the non-3GPP network based on one or more network parameters, when one or more network services are available in the 3GPP access network and the non-3GPP access network.
