INFORMATION INDICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18423942 titled 'INFORMATION INDICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

Embodiments of this application provide an information indication method and apparatus. The method includes: A CP indicates, to a UP by using first information, a maximum number of EHC contexts that can be established by the UP for UE, a DRB of the UE, or a PDU session of the UE in a downlink direction, so that the UP can establish a proper number of EHC contexts for the UE, the DRB of the UE, or the PDU session of the UE in the downlink direction based on the maximum number. This resolves a problem that a UP in an access network device in a split architecture cannot establish a proper number of EHC contexts for the UE because the UP does not know a capability of the UE.

  • Explanation:
 - CP indicates maximum number of EHC contexts to UP using first information.
 - UP establishes proper number of EHC contexts for UE, DRB, or PDU session based on maximum number.
    • Potential Applications:

This technology can be applied in 5G networks, network slicing, and virtualized network functions.

    • Problems Solved:

This technology solves the problem of a UP in a split architecture not being able to establish a proper number of EHC contexts for the UE due to lack of knowledge about the UE's capability.

    • Benefits:

The technology ensures efficient resource allocation and improves network performance by enabling the establishment of an optimal number of EHC contexts.

    • Potential Commercial Applications:

Commercial applications include telecommunications companies, network equipment manufacturers, and providers of network optimization solutions.

    • Possible Prior Art:

One possible prior art could be methods for resource allocation in wireless networks based on user equipment capabilities.

      1. Unanswered Questions:
        1. How does this technology impact network scalability?

This article does not specifically address the impact of this technology on network scalability.

        1. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in existing network infrastructures?

The article does not discuss the potential challenges in implementing this technology in existing network infrastructures.
