NETWORK VERIFICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240224098 titled 'NETWORK VERIFICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS

The patent application describes a method and apparatus for network verification, specifically focusing on determining whether a terminal device occupies a resource of a network slice.

Slice statistics network element receives a slice registration request message from a mobility management network element.
The request message includes an identifier of a terminal device and an identifier of a network slice.
The network element determines if the terminal device occupies a resource of the network slice.
Based on the determination, the network element decides whether to include the terminal device in statistics about accessing the network slice.

Potential Applications: - Network management systems - Telecommunications industry - IoT devices

Problems Solved: - Efficient resource allocation in network slices - Accurate statistics on terminal device usage

Benefits: - Improved network performance - Enhanced resource utilization - Better network slice management

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhancing Network Slice Management for Improved Performance" This technology can be used by telecom companies to optimize their network resources and provide better services to customers. It can also be integrated into IoT networks for efficient device management.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method improve network slice management efficiency? - This method allows for better resource allocation and accurate statistics, leading to improved network performance. 2. What are the potential implications of this technology in the telecommunications industry? - This technology can revolutionize network management systems, leading to more efficient operations and better service delivery.

Original Abstract Submitted

this application provides a network verification method and apparatus. the method may include: a slice statistics network element () receives a slice registration request message () from a mobility management network element (), where the slice registration request message () includes an identifier of a terminal device () and an identifier of a network slice. in response to the slice registration request message (), the slice statistics network element () determines whether the terminal device () occupies a resource of the network slice. the slice statistics network element () determines, based on a determining result, whether to count the terminal device () into statistics about a terminal accessing the network slice.
