SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INHOMOGENEOUS SLICE SUPPORT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240196316 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INHOMOGENEOUS SLICE SUPPORT
The patent application discusses systems and methods for supporting inhomogeneous slices in wireless devices, allowing for non-uniform slice availability.
- Signals indication of supporting non-uniform slice availability and receives information on how to act based on the indicated support.
- Enables the radio access network (RAN) and/or core network (CN) to handle legacy and new UE types effectively.
- Prevents unnecessary slice requests from legacy UEs by managing them appropriately.
- Allows new UEs to access non-uniformly available slices in a given cell/tracking area.
- Enhances the configuration of new UEs with information on allowed slices.
Potential Applications: - Telecommunications networks - Mobile devices - Internet of Things (IoT) devices
Problems Solved: - Efficient management of legacy and new UE types - Preventing unnecessary slice requests - Enhancing network performance and resource allocation
Benefits: - Improved network efficiency - Enhanced user experience - Better resource utilization
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Network Slice Support Technology for Wireless Devices" This technology can be utilized by telecommunications companies to optimize network performance, improve user experience, and efficiently manage network resources.
Prior Art: Readers can explore prior patents related to network slicing, wireless communication technologies, and network resource management.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in network slicing technologies, wireless communication standards, and network optimization strategies.
Questions about Network Slice Support Technology: 1. How does this technology impact network efficiency and resource allocation? 2. What are the potential implications of non-uniform slice availability in wireless networks?
Original Abstract Submitted
systems and methods for inhomogeneous slice support are provided. in some embodiments, a wireless device: signals an indication that it supports non-uniform slice availability and receives an information on how it may act based on the indicated slice support. in this way, some embodiments allow the radio access network (ran) and/or cn to correctly handle legacy and new ue types in a system where new ues may be able to support non uniform slice availability. these may enable the cn to manage the legacy ues in a way that their legacy behavior does not create unnecessary slice requests, e.g., for slices that are not available in a given cell. these systems and methods may allow new ues to be configured with information for allowed slices that are not uniformly available, and that the ue may access upon detection of information expressing availability of such slices in a given cell/tracking area.
