Method and Apparatus for UE Reachability Event Enhancements - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18277010 titled 'Method and Apparatus for UE Reachability Event Enhancements
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method implemented by a network node in a communication network for managing User Equipment (UE) reachability events. The method involves receiving subscriptions for UE reachability events, sending subscriptions to other network nodes, and sending reachability reports to event subscribers.
- Receiving first subscription for UE reachability event from event subscriber
- Sending second subscription for UE reachability event to another network node
- Sending UE reachability report to event subscriber
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in telecommunications networks to efficiently manage and report UE reachability events.
Problems Solved
1. Efficient management of UE reachability events 2. Clear indication of reporting mode for events
Benefits
1. Improved network performance 2. Enhanced event reporting capabilities
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing network operations in telecommunications companies
Possible Prior Art
No known prior art at this time.
Unanswered Questions
How does this method impact network efficiency?
This method helps streamline the reporting and management of UE reachability events, potentially improving overall network efficiency.
What are the implications of direct versus indirect reporting modes for UE reachability events?
The choice between direct and indirect reporting modes may have different implications for event handling and network resource utilization.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method implemented by a first network node in a communication network is provided. The method comprises: receiving a first subscription for subscribing a first User Equipment UE reachability event of a UE from an event subscriber, wherein the first subscription comprises a first indicator for indicating whether the first UE reachability event is to be reported in a direct mode or an indirect mode; sending a second subscription for subscribing a second UE reachability event to a second network node that is registered in the first network node, the second subscription comprises a second indicator for indicating that the first UE reachability event is to be directly or indirectly reported to the event subscriber according to the first indicator; and sending a first UE reachability report to the event subscriber.
