DEVICE AND METHOD FOR RECOVERING LOST INFORMATION IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18349534 titled 'DEVICE AND METHOD FOR RECOVERING LOST INFORMATION IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for managing sessions in a network system.
- The method involves sending a request message to a user plane function (UPF) based on the UPF and session configuration.
- A response message is received from the UPF.
- The method determines if there is any lost usage amount based on the response message.
- If there is lost usage amount, the method transmits recovered usage amount information to an online charging system (OCS).
- The response message may include current usage amount and cumulative usage amount information of the UPF.
Original Abstract Submitted
An operation method of a session management function (SMF) is provided. The method includes the steps of transmitting a request message to a user plane function (UPF) on the basis of the UPF and a session configuration, receiving a response message from the UPF, determining whether there is a lost usage amount on the basis of the response message, and, when there is a lost usage amount, transmitting recovered usage amount information to an online charging system (OCS), wherein the response message may include current usage amount information and cumulative usage amount information of the UPF.
