RAN PAGING AND RAN AREA IDENTIFIER EXCHANGE BETWEEN BASE STATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18596043 titled 'RAN PAGING AND RAN AREA IDENTIFIER EXCHANGE BETWEEN BASE STATIONS

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a method where a first base station communicates with a second base station to send a paging message to a wireless device in a radio resource control inactive state.

  • A first base station receives a cell identifier and a second radio access network (RAN) area identifier from a second base station.
  • The first base station receives a packet for a wireless device in an RRC inactive state.
  • A RAN paging message is sent to the second base station based on the received packet.
  • The RAN paging message is triggered when the first RAN area identifier of the first base station matches the second RAN area identifier.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Inter-base station communication for paging wireless devices.
  • Efficient handling of RRC inactive state devices.
  • Utilization of RAN area identifiers for targeted paging.

Potential Applications:

  • Mobile network paging optimization.
  • Enhanced communication between base stations.
  • Improved resource allocation in wireless networks.

Problems Solved:

  • Efficiently paging wireless devices in RRC inactive state.
  • Streamlining inter-base station communication.
  • Enhancing network resource management.

Benefits:

  • Reduced paging delays for wireless devices.
  • Enhanced network performance and resource utilization.
  • Improved overall user experience in wireless networks.

Commercial Applications: Optimized paging solutions for telecom operators to improve network efficiency and user experience.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does this technology improve the efficiency of paging in wireless networks? 2. What are the potential implications of inter-base station communication for network optimization?


Original Abstract Submitted

A first base station receives from a second base station: a cell identifier of a cell of the second base station; and a second radio access network (RAN) area identifier of the cell. A packet for a wireless device in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state is received. A RAN paging message is sent to the second base station in response to receiving the packet. The RAN paging message is based on a first RAN area identifier of the first base station being identical to the second RAN area identifier.
