METHODS, NETWORK FUNCTION NODES AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA FOR EVENT SUBSCRIPTION MANAGEMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18450531 titled 'METHODS, NETWORK FUNCTION NODES AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA FOR EVENT SUBSCRIPTION MANAGEMENT

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure describes methods for managing event subscriptions in a network with NF nodes.

  • The method involves receiving a subscription request for an event from an event subscriber.
  • Upon receiving the request, a query request is sent to a second network function node to check if the event has already been subscribed by the user.
  • If the response from the second network function node indicates that the event has been subscribed, an updating request is sent to include the event subscriber in the subscriber list.

The method ensures efficient management of event subscriptions in the network.

  • Simplifies event subscription management in a network with NF nodes.
  • Allows event subscribers to request subscriptions for specific events.
  • Checks if the event has already been subscribed by the user.
  • Updates the subscriber list to include the event subscriber if the event has been subscribed.
  • Ensures efficient and accurate management of event subscriptions in the network.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure provides methods for event subscription management in a network comprising a set of NF nodes, and corresponding NF nodes. The method comprises receiving a subscription request of an event for a user from an event subscriber, in response to receipt of the subscription request, transmitting, to a second network function node, a query request for querying whether the event for the user has been subscribed; and if a response to the query request from the second network function node indicates that the event for the user has been subscribed, transmitting, to the second network function node, an updating request for updating a subscriber list of the event for the user by the second network function node to include the event subscriber into the subscriber list. The present disclosure further discloses a corresponding method which comprises receiving a query request from a first network function node for querying whether an event for a user has been subscribed, in response to reception of the query request, checking whether an indicator indicating the event for the user has been subscribed has been set, and transmitting a check result to the first network function node. The present disclosure further provides corresponding computer readable medium.
