ENHANCEMENT OF USER EQUIPMENT LOCATION FOR NON-3GPP ACCESS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18287639 titled 'ENHANCEMENT OF USER EQUIPMENT LOCATION FOR NON-3GPP ACCESS
The abstract describes a method for determining the location of a User Equipment (UE) accessing a network via non-3GPP access. The UE establishes connections with both network and non-network entities, transmitting the non-network entity's ID to the network entity. When requested, the UE provides location information for the non-network entity to the network entity.
- The UE establishes connections with network and non-network entities.
- It transmits the ID of the non-network entity to the network entity.
- Upon request, the UE provides location information for the non-network entity to the network entity.
Potential Applications: - Location tracking for UEs accessing networks via non-3GPP access. - Enhanced network management and optimization. - Improved security measures for network access.
Problems Solved: - Determining the location of UEs accessing networks via non-3GPP access. - Efficient communication between network and non-network entities.
Benefits: - Enhanced network security. - Improved network management. - Better user experience for UEs accessing networks via non-3GPP access.
Commercial Applications: Title: Location Tracking Technology for Non-3GPP Network Access This technology can be used in telecommunications, IoT devices, and network security industries to enhance location tracking and network management for UEs accessing networks via non-3GPP access.
Questions about Location Tracking Technology for Non-3GPP Network Access: 1. How does this technology improve network security for UEs accessing networks via non-3GPP access? - This technology enhances network security by providing accurate location information for non-network entities connected to UEs, enabling better monitoring and control over network access. 2. What are the potential implications of this technology for IoT devices connected to networks via non-3GPP access? - This technology can improve location tracking and management for IoT devices, enhancing overall network efficiency and security.
Original Abstract Submitted
Aspects presented herein may enable a location of a UE accessing a network via non-3GPP access to be determined or estimated. In one aspect, a UE establishes a connection with at least one network entity and a non-network connection entity. The UE transmits, to the at least one network entity, an ID of the non-network connection entity when connected to the at least one network entity. The UE receives, from the at least one network entity, a request for a location of the non-network connection entity. The UE transmits, to the at least one network entity, an indication of location information for the non-network connection entity.
