==COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, METHOD, AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18420401 titled 'COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, METHOD, AND APPARATUS

==Simplified Explanation==

The communication system, method, and apparatus described in the abstract involve deploying user service nodes (USNs) in edge clouds to provide services for terminal devices. A mapping system with distributed mapping nodes stores information about the USNs and terminal devices, forming hash rings for efficient data retrieval.

* User service nodes (USNs) are deployed in edge clouds to provide services for terminal devices.
* The USNs form hash rings corresponding to their respective edge clouds.
* A mapping system with distributed mapping nodes stores information about the USNs and terminal devices.
* The mapping nodes form hash rings corresponding to the mapping system for efficient data storage and retrieval.

== Potential Applications ==
The technology described in the patent application could be applied in various fields such as telecommunications, edge computing, and IoT networks.

== Problems Solved ==
This technology solves the problem of efficiently providing services for terminal devices by deploying USNs in edge clouds and using a mapping system for storing and retrieving information about the USNs and terminal devices.

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this technology include improved service delivery for terminal devices, efficient data storage and retrieval, and scalability for edge cloud deployments.

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
The technology could be commercially applied in telecommunications companies, edge cloud service providers, and IoT network operators to enhance service delivery and optimize resource utilization.

== Possible Prior Art ==
One possible prior art for this technology could be distributed computing systems that use hash rings for data partitioning and retrieval in a networked environment.

=== Unanswered Questions ===

== How does this technology handle data security and privacy concerns in the communication system? ==
The patent abstract does not provide information on how data security and privacy concerns are addressed in the communication system. 

== What are the potential challenges in implementing and scaling this communication system in real-world applications? ==
The abstract does not mention the potential challenges in implementing and scaling the communication system in real-world applications.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A communication system, method, and apparatus are provided. The communication system includes a first edge cloud deploying first group of user service nodes (USNs) that form a hash ring corresponding to the first edge cloud and a second edge cloud deploying a second group of USNs that form a hash ring corresponding to the second edge cloud. A USN is configured to provide a service for a terminal device corresponding to the USN. The communication system may further include a mapping system including one or more distributed mapping nodes that store information about the USNs on the first and second edge cloud. The information about a USN includes identification information of the USN and identification information of the terminal device corresponding to the USN. When the mapping system includes a plurality of distributed mapping nodes, the mapping nodes form one or more hash rings corresponding to the mapping system.
