COMMUNICATION CONNECTIVITY MANAGEMENT BASED ON UE MOBILITY CONTEXT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18408925 titled 'COMMUNICATION CONNECTIVITY MANAGEMENT BASED ON UE MOBILITY CONTEXT

The abstract of this patent application describes a system involving one or more processors that enable a user equipment (UE) to transmit messages indicating its capabilities and anticipated mobility events to a network entity. The system can also determine connectivity changes based on contextual information associated with the UE.

The system includes processors that execute instructions for the UE to transmit messages to a network entity.
The messages indicate the UE's capabilities and anticipated mobility events.
Contextual information associated with the UE is used to determine when mobility events are likely to occur.
The system can then transmit messages to the network entity indicating these mobility events.
Connectivity changes can be determined and implemented based on the anticipated mobility events.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in mobile communication systems to enhance network efficiency and user experience. - It can be applied in IoT devices to improve connectivity and data transmission.

Problems Solved: - Addressing the need for proactive network management based on anticipated mobility events. - Enhancing the overall performance and reliability of communication systems.

Benefits: - Improved network efficiency and resource allocation. - Enhanced user experience with seamless connectivity. - Proactive management of connectivity changes based on contextual information.

Commercial Applications: Title: Proactive Mobility Management System for Enhanced Connectivity This technology can be utilized by telecommunications companies to optimize network performance and provide better services to customers. It can also be integrated into IoT devices to ensure reliable and efficient data transmission.

Questions about Proactive Mobility Management System: 1. How does this system improve network efficiency based on anticipated mobility events? 2. What are the potential benefits of implementing proactive connectivity changes in communication systems?

Original Abstract Submitted

One or more processors are provided. The one or more processors include circuitry that executes instructions to cause a user equipment (UE) to perform operations. The operations include transmitting, to a network entity, a first message indicating a capability of the UE. The operations include determining, based on contextual information associated with the UE, an anticipated mobility event to occur during a time window. The operations include transmitting, to the network entity, a second message indicative of the mobility event. The operations include determining to make a connectivity change when the mobility event occurs. A network entity and a method are also provided.
