NEGOTIATION AND NOTIFICATION OF PROTOCOL DATA UNIT (PDU) SET OR DATA BURST MARKING MECHANISMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18312551 titled 'NEGOTIATION AND NOTIFICATION OF PROTOCOL DATA UNIT (PDU) SET OR DATA BURST MARKING MECHANISMS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications.
- The system involves a two-step procedure where network entities negotiate available marking mechanisms for packet identification.
- An application function (AF) receives a notification of selected marking mechanisms for a traffic flow.
- The AF negotiates marking mechanisms with a network exposure function (NEF).
- The AF receives selected marking mechanisms from a session management function (SMF).
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, one or more network entities or functionalities may participate in a two-step procedure according to which the one or more network entities or functionalities negotiate a set of available marking mechanisms for identification of packets as belonging to a same protocol data unit (PDU) set or data burst and according to which an application function (AF) may receive a notification of one or more selected marking mechanisms that are to be used for a traffic flow. The AF may negotiate the set of available marking mechanisms with a network exposure function (NEF) and may receive an indication of the one or more selected marking mechanisms from a session management function (SMF).
