Electronic Devices with Proactive Cellular Connection Management - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240357489 titled 'Electronic Devices with Proactive Cellular Connection Management

The communications system described in the patent application involves a data collection server (DCS) that gathers contextual information from a group of user equipment (UE) devices. This information is then stored in a database for analysis. The UE devices can proactively determine the best network configuration for communicating with a cellular network based on their local context and information from the database. This proactive approach helps optimize performance without the need for reactive network adjustments.

  • Data collection server (DCS) receives contextual information from UE devices
  • Contextual information is aggregated into a database
  • UE devices can identify optimal network configurations proactively
  • UE devices generate local contextual information
  • UE devices request database entries based on geographic tiles
  • UE devices select optimal network configurations using local context and requested entries
  • UE devices transmit requests to base stations for communication under optimal configurations
  • Proactive selection of network configurations optimizes performance without reactive adjustments

Potential Applications: - Enhanced network performance in cellular communications - Improved user experience in mobile networks - Efficient utilization of network resources

Problems Solved: - Suboptimal network configurations in cellular communication - Inefficient use of network resources - Lack of proactive network optimization solutions

Benefits: - Enhanced network performance - Improved user experience - Efficient resource utilization

Commercial Applications: Title: "Proactive Network Configuration Optimization in Cellular Communications" This technology can be applied in telecommunications companies to improve network efficiency and user experience. It can also be utilized in IoT devices to ensure seamless connectivity.

Questions about Proactive Network Configuration Optimization in Cellular Communications: 1. How does proactive network configuration optimization differ from reactive adjustments? Proactive network configuration optimization involves preemptively selecting the best network configuration based on current context, while reactive adjustments occur in response to network performance issues.

2. What are the key advantages of using user equipment assistance information (UAI) in radio resource control (RRC) signals? UAI in RRC signals helps UE devices make informed decisions about network configurations, leading to optimized performance and improved user experience.


Original Abstract Submitted

a communications system may include a data collection server (dcs) that receives contextual information from a set of ue devices. the dcs may aggregate the contextual information into a database. a given ue may proactively identify an optimal network configuration to use in communicating with a cellular network. the ue may generate local contextual information. the ue may request a set of entries from the database corresponding to a set of geographic tiles overlapping or neighboring its location. the ue may select the optimal network configuration based on its local contextual information and the requested entries. the ue may transmit a request to a base station to perform communications under the optimal network configuration using user equipment assistance information (uai) of a radio resource control (rrc) signal. proactive selection of the network configuration may optimize performance given the current ue operating context without requiring reactive network configuration adjustments.
