DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SUPPORTING NETWORK FUNCTION OPENING SERVICE FOR TERMINAL IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240381068 titled 'DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SUPPORTING NETWORK FUNCTION OPENING SERVICE FOR TERMINAL IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
The abstract of this patent application describes an operation method of a Home Edge Configuration Server (HECS) that involves receiving a service provisioning request from a User Equipment (UE) in a visited Public Land Mobile Network (VPLMN), identifying available Visited Edge Configuration Servers (VECS) in the VPLMN, and transmitting a provisioning response message to the UE with information about the identified VECS.
- The method involves identifying at least one VECS available in the VPLMN when the UE is in roaming status.
- The UE then transmits a second service provisioning request message to one of the identified VECS based on the information provided.
- This process allows for efficient service provisioning for roaming UEs by leveraging available edge servers in the visited network.
Potential Applications: - Mobile network operators can use this method to optimize service provisioning for roaming users. - Edge computing providers can benefit from improved efficiency in serving roaming users.
Problems Solved: - Streamlining service provisioning for roaming users. - Enhancing the user experience by connecting them to the most suitable edge servers.
Benefits: - Improved network performance for roaming users. - Enhanced reliability and responsiveness of services. - Cost-effective utilization of edge computing resources.
Commercial Applications: "Optimized Service Provisioning Method for Roaming Users in Edge Networks"
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method improve the overall user experience for roaming users? 2. What are the potential cost savings for mobile network operators implementing this technology?
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on the latest advancements in edge computing technologies and their impact on mobile networks to enhance service provisioning for roaming users.
Original Abstract Submitted
according to an embodiment of the disclosure, an operation method of a home edge configuration server (hecs) includes receiving, from a user equipment (ue), a first service provisioning request including an identifier of a visited public land mobile network (vplmn) in which the ue is served, identifying at least one visited edge configuration server (vecs) available in the vplmn in case that roaming status of the ue is identified based on the identifier of the vplmn, and transmitting, to the ue, a provisioning response message including information about the identified at least one vecs, wherein a second service provisioning request message is transmitted to one of the at least one vecs, from the ue, based on the information about the at least one vecs.
