USER EQUIPMENT (UE) AND COMMUNICATION CONTROL METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18284200 titled 'USER EQUIPMENT (UE) AND COMMUNICATION CONTROL METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application related to providing information to a User Equipment (UE) in a 5G system for connecting to and registering with a non-public network (NPN). It addresses the issue of the UE not holding information about the NPN and the unclear network selection and connection mode when connecting to an Operator Network (ON).

  • Communication means implemented to provide NPN information to a UE in a 5G system.
  • Means for determining network selection and connection mode when the UE connects to an ON.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in telecommunications, specifically in 5G networks, to improve the connection process for UEs when registering with non-public networks.

Problems Solved

1. Lack of information regarding non-public networks for UEs in a 5G system. 2. Unclear network selection and connection mode when connecting to an Operator Network.

Benefits

1. Enhanced user experience with smoother network registration. 2. Improved efficiency in network selection for UEs. 3. Streamlined connection process for UEs in 5G systems.

Potential Commercial Applications

"Enhancing Network Selection and Connection Mode for UEs in 5G Systems"

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to network selection and connection modes for UEs in different generations of mobile networks, such as 4G or 3G systems.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact network efficiency in 5G systems?

This article does not delve into the specific metrics or data related to the efficiency improvements brought about by the technology.

Are there any potential security implications with the implementation of this technology?

The article does not address any security concerns that may arise from the communication means and network selection processes described.


Original Abstract Submitted

Although a user equipment (UE) needs to connect to and register with a non-public network (NPN) in a 5G system (5GS), the UE does not hold information regarding the NPN, and network selection to be performed and a connection mode of the UE are unclear in a case that the UE connects to and registers with an ON. Communication means for providing NPN information to a UE in a case that the UE needs to connect to and register with an NPN in the 5G system (5GS) is implemented and means for determining network selection to be performed and a connection mode of the UE in a case that the UE connects to and registers with an ON is provided.
