MANAGING CONNECTIONS TO MULTIPLE CENTRALIZED UNITS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18271634 titled 'MANAGING CONNECTIONS TO MULTIPLE CENTRALIZED UNITS

Simplified Explanation:

The patent application describes a distributed unit (DU) in a radio access network (RAN) that establishes connections with centralized units (CU) in the RAN. The DU sends interface messages to establish connections with multiple CUs concurrently.

  • The DU in a RAN establishes connections with CUs.
  • The DU sends interface messages to establish connections with CUs.
  • The DU can maintain multiple connections with different CUs simultaneously.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • The DU can establish connections with multiple CUs in the RAN.
  • The DU can maintain multiple connections concurrently.
  • The use of interface messages to establish and maintain connections efficiently.

Potential Applications:

This technology can be applied in telecommunications networks to improve connection management and efficiency.

Problems Solved:

  • Efficient establishment and maintenance of connections in a RAN.
  • Improved network performance and resource utilization.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced network connectivity.
  • Better resource management.
  • Increased network efficiency.

Commercial Applications:

Potential commercial applications include telecommunications infrastructure providers, network equipment manufacturers, and mobile network operators.

Prior Art:

Readers can explore prior art related to connection management in radio access networks and distributed units.

Frequently Updated Research:

Stay informed about the latest research on connection management in radio access networks and distributed units.

Questions about Connection Management in Radio Access Networks:

1. How does the use of interface messages improve connection establishment in a RAN? 2. What are the advantages of maintaining multiple connections concurrently in a distributed unit?


Original Abstract Submitted

A distributed unit (DU) operating in a radio access network (RAN) for establishing a connection with a centralized unit (CU) operating in the RAN, (i) transmits (), to a first CU, a first interface message to establish a first connection between the DU and the first CU, and (ii) transmits (), to a second CU via the first CU, a second interface message to establish a second connection between the DU and the second CU via the first CU, to maintain the first connection and the second connection concurrently.
