DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SIGNAL TRANSMISSION IN NETWORK ACCORDING TO SEPARATION OF UPF FUNCTION SPLIT IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240324051 titled 'DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SIGNAL TRANSMISSION IN NETWORK ACCORDING TO SEPARATION OF UPF FUNCTION SPLIT IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

The disclosure pertains to a method performed by a Session Management Function (SMF) device in a wireless communication system, specifically in the context of a 4th generation (4G) communication system like Long Term Evolution (LTE) and a 5th generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system designed to support higher data transmission rates than 4G systems.

  • Receiving a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session establishment request message from an Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF).
  • Transmitting a PDU session establishment response message to the AMF.
  • Transmitting a first session establishment request message to a User Plane Function (UPF) anchor.
  • Receiving a first session setup establishment message from the UPF anchor.
  • Transmitting a second session establishment request message to a Radio Access Gateway (RAG).
  • Receiving a second session establishment response message from the RAG, which includes a Central Unit (CU)-User Plane (UP) and a UPF edge.

Potential Applications: - Enhanced data transmission rates in 5G or pre-5G communication systems. - Improved session management in wireless communication networks.

Problems Solved: - Addressing the need for higher data transmission rates in modern communication systems. - Streamlining session establishment processes in wireless networks.

Benefits: - Faster and more efficient data transmission. - Enhanced network performance and user experience.

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Session Management in Next-Generation Communication Systems" This technology could find applications in telecommunications companies, network infrastructure providers, and IoT device manufacturers looking to leverage high-speed data transmission capabilities.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method improve data transmission rates in comparison to 4G systems? 2. What role does the SMF device play in optimizing session establishment in wireless networks?


Original Abstract Submitted

the disclosure relates to a 4th generation (4g) communication system such as long term evolution (lte), and a 5th generation (5g) or pre-5g communication system for supporting higher data transmission rates than 4g communication systems. a method performed by a session management function (smf) device in a wireless communication system is provided. the method includes receiving, by the smf device, a protocol data unit (pdu) session establishment request message from an access and mobility management function (amf), transmitting, by the smf device, a pdu session establishment response message to the amf, transmitting, by the smf device, a first session establishment request message to a user plane function (upf) anchor, receiving, by the smf device, a first session setup establishment message from the upf anchor, transmitting, by the smf device, a second session establishment request message to a radio access gateway (rag), and receiving, by the smf device, a second session establishment response message from the rag, wherein the rag includes a central unit (cu)-user plane (up) and a upf edge.
