First IMS Node, First Core Network Node, Second IMS Node, and Methods Performed Therein - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240137392 titled 'First IMS Node, First Core Network Node, Second IMS Node, and Methods Performed Therein
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method performed by an IP Multimedia System (IMS) node for handling a network function in a communication network. The IMS node requests contact information of a network function instance from a core network node, receives a response with the contact information, and communicates with another IMS node or core network node based on the received information.
- The IMS node requests contact information of a network function instance from a core network node.
- The IMS node receives a response with at least a part of the contact information for the network function instance.
- The IMS node communicates with another IMS node or core network node over a service-based interface using the received contact information.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in telecommunications networks to efficiently handle network functions and facilitate communication between different nodes.
Problems Solved
1. Streamlining the process of obtaining contact information for network function instances. 2. Enhancing communication and coordination between IMS nodes and core network nodes.
Benefits
1. Improved efficiency in network function management. 2. Enhanced interoperability between different nodes in a communication network.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing network function handling in telecommunications networks for improved performance and reliability.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be methods for communication between network nodes in a telecommunications network, but specific details may vary based on the unique aspects of this patent application.
Unanswered Questions
How does this method impact network performance and reliability in real-world telecommunications networks?
The article does not provide information on the practical implications of implementing this method in actual communication networks.
Are there any potential security concerns associated with sharing contact information between different nodes in a network?
The potential security implications of exchanging contact information between nodes are not addressed in the article.
Original Abstract Submitted
a method performed by a first ip multimedia system, ims, node (), for handling a network function in a communication network. the first ims node () requests a first core network node () for at least a part of contact information of a network function instance, and receives a response from the first core network node () with at least the part of the contact information for the network function instance. the first ims node () communicates with a second ims node () or a core network node over a service based interface, based on the received part of the contact information for the network function instance.
