METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONDITIONAL HANDOVER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18558010 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONDITIONAL HANDOVER

The apparatus described in the patent application is designed to handle requests from multiple master nodes for the conditional handover process of a user equipment.

  • The apparatus identifies the user equipment involved in the handover process from each request received.
  • It then determines if multiple requests pertain to the same user equipment, streamlining the process.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in telecommunications networks to efficiently manage handover processes for user equipment. - It can improve the overall performance and reliability of network handovers.

Problems Solved: - Streamlines the conditional handover process for user equipment. - Reduces the chances of errors or delays in handover procedures.

Benefits: - Enhanced efficiency in managing handover requests. - Improved user experience with smoother transitions between network nodes.

Commercial Applications: Title: "Efficient Handover Management System for Telecommunications Networks" This technology can be utilized by telecommunications companies to optimize handover processes, leading to better network performance and customer satisfaction.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the apparatus determine if multiple requests concern the same user equipment?

  - The apparatus compares the identifications of the user equipment from each request to make this determination.

2. What are the key advantages of streamlining the conditional handover process for user equipment?

  - Streamlining the process reduces errors, delays, and improves overall network performance.


Original Abstract Submitted

An apparatus comprising means for receiving requests from a plurality of master nodes to be included added as a secondary node into as part of a conditional handover process for a user equipment: means for obtaining, from each of said requests, an identification of the user equipment involved in the conditional handover process: and means for determining, based on said identifications of the user equipment, that a plurality of said requests concern the same user equipment.
