MULTI-ACCESS EDGE COMPUTING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240259772 titled 'MULTI-ACCESS EDGE COMPUTING

The abstract describes systems, methods, and instrumentalities for enabling a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) to participate in multi-access edge computing (MEC) services. The WTRU may be constrained in terms of computation, storage, and networking resources.

  • The WTRU can expose an interface to an MEC application on the device, allowing the application to register with a network device such as an MEO host at the edge of a mobile communication network and join an MEO service.
  • A transport can be established between the WTRU and the MEO host to facilitate the provision of the MEC service, with the ability to modify or delete the transport based on mobility events and load conditions of the WTRU.

Potential Applications: - Enhancing the capabilities of constrained wireless devices to access edge computing services. - Improving the efficiency and performance of MEC applications on mobile devices.

Problems Solved: - Addressing limitations in computation, storage, and networking resources on wireless devices. - Facilitating seamless integration of MEC services on constrained devices.

Benefits: - Increased access to edge computing services for a wider range of devices. - Enhanced performance and efficiency of MEC applications on constrained wireless devices.

Commercial Applications: "Enabling Constrained Wireless Devices for Multi-Access Edge Computing Services: Market Implications and Commercial Uses"

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve the user experience on constrained wireless devices? 2. What are the potential cost savings for businesses implementing MEC services on constrained devices?


Original Abstract Submitted

described herein are systems, methods, and instrumentalities associated with enabling a wireless transmit/receive unit (wtru) to participate in multi-access edge computing (meg) services. the wtru may be a constrained wtru, for example, in terms of computation, storage, and/or networking resources available to the wtru. a function may be implemented on the wtru to expose an interface to an meg application on the wtru, through which the meg application may register with a network device such as an meo host located at the edge of a mobile communication network and join an meo service provided by the meg host. a transport may be established between the wtru and the meg host to facilitate provision of the meg service, and the transport may be modified and/or deleted, for example, based on mobility events at the wtru and/or load conditions of the wtru.
