==VISUAL CONTROLS PROVIDING CONTEXT FOR KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS IN 5G NETWORKS - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17958079 titled 'VISUAL CONTROLS PROVIDING CONTEXT FOR KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS IN 5G NETWORKS

==Simplified Explanation==

The navigation tool described in the patent application is designed to work with a curated catalog of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for 5G mobile operators. It allows users to implement service assurance graphically using a unique ontological model of the operator's 5G network. The tool provides a visually-based context to the catalog, making it easier for users to select and work with KPIs in a meaningful way.

* The navigation tool is configured to interoperate with a curated catalog of KPIs for 5G mobile operators.
* Users can implement service assurance graphically based on a unique ontological model of the operator's 5G network.
* The tool provides visually-based context to the catalog, streamlining KPI selection and facilitating discovery, grouping, and connecting of KPIs in a meaningful way.

== Potential Applications ==
The technology can be applied in:
* Telecommunications industry for 5G network performance monitoring.
* Network management and optimization for mobile operators.

== Problems Solved ==
This technology addresses:
* Simplifying the process of selecting and working with KPIs for 5G networks.
* Providing a visual language to streamline service assurance implementation.

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this technology include:
* Improved user experience in managing 5G network performance.
* Enhanced visualization and understanding of KPIs for mobile operators.

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
This technology can be commercially applied in:
* Software development for network management tools.
* Consulting services for 5G mobile operators.

== Possible Prior Art ==
One possible prior art could be the use of visual languages in network management tools for other generations of mobile networks.

=== Unanswered Questions ===

=== How does the visual language used in the navigation tool enhance the user experience compared to traditional text-based interfaces? ===
The visual language in the navigation tool provides a more intuitive way for users to interact with and understand the KPIs in the catalog. It simplifies the process of selecting and working with KPIs, but the specific cognitive benefits compared to text-based interfaces are not explicitly mentioned in the abstract.

=== What specific aspects of 5G network performance can be expressed and monitored using the KPIs in the catalog? ===
While the abstract mentions that the KPIs in the catalog express essential aspects of 5G network performance, it does not provide specific examples or details on what these aspects are. Further information on the types of KPIs and metrics covered by the catalog would be helpful in understanding the scope of monitoring capabilities offered by the technology.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A navigation tool using a visual language is configured to interoperate with a curated catalog of KPIs that enables users associated with 5G mobile operators to implement service assurance in a graphical manner based on a unique ontological model of an operator's 5G network. The graphical navigation tool provides visually-based context to the catalog to streamline KPI selection while leveraging the cognitive benefits of the visual language to facilitate discovery, grouping, and connecting of the KPIs in a meaningful way to express essential aspects of 5G network performance.
