Communication Method and Communications Apparatus - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18325686 Titled 'Communication Method and Communications Apparatus'
Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes a communication method that involves transferring a terminal device from one area to another. The method includes sending a set of instructions from the current network element in the first area to the new network element in the second area. These instructions, known as a slice set, are specific to the home network of the terminal device. The new network element then uses this slice set to obtain a different set of instructions, known as a third slice set, that is specific to the second area. Overall, this method simplifies the process of transferring a terminal device between different network areas.
Original Abstract Submitted
A communication method includes sending, by a source mobility management network element in a first area, a first slice set for a home public land mobile network (PLMN) (HPLMN) of a terminal device to a target mobility management network element in a second area when handing over the terminal device from a source access network device in the first area to a target access network device in the second area, where the first slice set corresponds to a second slice set for the first area, and obtaining, by the target mobility management network element, a third slice set for the second area based on the first slice set.
