NETWORK SLICING-BASED RANDOM ACCESS METHOD AND APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240163777 titled 'NETWORK SLICING-BASED RANDOM ACCESS METHOD AND APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for receiving downlink control information and random access response in a communication system.

  • Explanation:
 * Receiving downlink control information with identifiers of slices or slice groups, and random access resource configuration indexes.
 * Receiving a random access response for a requested slice or slice group based on the information received in the downlink control information.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various communication systems where efficient resource allocation and access control are required.

Problems Solved

1. Efficiently managing random access requests in a communication system. 2. Ensuring proper allocation of resources based on requested slices or slice groups.

Benefits

1. Improved resource utilization. 2. Enhanced system performance. 3. Streamlined access control mechanisms.

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing resource allocation in 5G networks for improved connectivity and user experience.

Possible Prior Art

No prior art known at this time.

Unanswered Questions

How does this method handle multiple random access requests simultaneously?

The method described in the abstract focuses on receiving a random access response for a single requested slice or slice group. It is unclear how the system would handle multiple requests at the same time.

What impact does this method have on network latency?

While the abstract describes a method for efficient resource allocation, it does not address the potential impact on network latency. It would be important to understand how this method affects latency in a communication system.


Original Abstract Submitted

in accordance with an embodiment, a method includes: receiving downlink control information comprising at least one piece of information of the following: an identifier of a first slice, an identifier of a first slice group, a random access resource configuration index corresponding to the first slice, or a random access resource configuration index corresponding to the first slice group; and receiving a random access response in response to a second slice or a second slice group that the terminal requests to access corresponding to the at least one piece of information comprised in the downlink control information, where the random access response corresponds to the first slice, the first slice group, the random access resource configuration index of the first slice, or the random access resource configuration index of the first slice group.
