First Network Node, Second Network Node and Methods in a Wireless Communications Network - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18031667 titled 'First Network Node, Second Network Node and Methods in a Wireless Communications Network
Simplified Explanation
This patent application describes a method for handling Quality of Service (QoS) parameters in a Multi Radio access technology—Dual Connectivity (MR-DC) network.
- The method involves a first network node sending a first indication to a second network node, which includes information about downgraded QoS levels and their respective parameters currently supported in the first network node.
- The first network node then receives a second indication from the second network node, which provides information about downgraded QoS levels and their respective parameters currently supported in the second network node.
- Based on this information, the first network node decides on one or more QoS parameters for the first radio resources to be provided to the User Equipment (UE) from the first network node in the MR-DC network.
Key points:
- The patent application focuses on improving QoS management in a MR-DC network.
- It introduces a method for exchanging information between network nodes to determine appropriate QoS parameters for radio resources provided to a UE.
- The method aims to ensure efficient utilization of network resources and enhance the user experience by optimizing QoS levels.
- This innovation can potentially lead to better network performance and improved QoS for UE devices in MR-DC networks.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method performed by a first network node for handling Quality of Service, QoS, parameters for respective first and second radio resources to be provided to a User Equipment, UE, in Multi Radio access technology—Dual Connectivity. The first network node sends () a first indication to the second network node. The first indication indicates a first set of downgraded QoS levels and their respective one or more QoS parameters currently supported in the first network node. The first network node receives () a second indication from the second network node. The second indication indicates the second set of downgraded QoS levels and their respective one or more QoS parameters currently supported in the second network node. The first network node decides () one or more QoS parameters for the first radio resources to be provided to the UE from the first network node in the MR-DC.
