PROXIMITY SERVICES DISCOVERY USER EQUIPMENT IDENTIFIER PROVISIONING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18284887 titled 'PROXIMITY SERVICES DISCOVERY USER EQUIPMENT IDENTIFIER PROVISIONING
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for operating a network function in a communication network, involving the transmission of information between network functions regarding changes in user equipment identifiers.
- The method initiates the transmission of information from one network function to another.
- The information indicates that the first network function is to be subscribed to receive notifications of changes in user equipment identifiers.
- The method involves receiving the user equipment identifier from the second network function.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in telecommunications networks to improve the efficiency of proximity services discovery for user equipment.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of efficiently notifying network functions of changes in user equipment identifiers.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved communication network efficiency and streamlined proximity services discovery processes.
Potential Commercial Applications

The article does not discuss any security implications of sharing user equipment identifiers between network functions.
Original Abstract Submitted
There is provided a method of operating a first network function in a communication network. The method includes initiating transmission of first information towards a second network function. The first information is indicative that the first network function is to be subscribed to receive a notification of a change in a proximity services discovery user equipment identifier (PDUID) for a user equipment (UE) from the second network function. The method includes receiving the PDUID for the UE from the second network function.
