METHOD FOR UE PARAMETER UPDATE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240251241 titled 'METHOD FOR UE PARAMETER UPDATE

The patent application describes an apparatus that obtains a subscription permanent identifier and a root session key for authentication purposes. It then generates an Authentication and Key Management for Applications (AKMA) key based on the root session key, along with a temporary identifier for the AKMA key using routing indicator values from a Unified Data Management (UDM) function.

  • The apparatus initiates a re-registration process for updating the temporary identifier based on a second routing indicator value without requiring a full re-registration, using the subscription permanent identifier and the second routing indicator value.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Obtaining a subscription permanent identifier for authentication.
  • Generating an AKMA key based on a root session key.
  • Creating a temporary identifier for the AKMA key using routing indicator values.
  • Updating the temporary identifier without a full re-registration process.

Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in secure authentication systems for various devices and applications that require key management and secure data transmission.

Problems Solved: This technology addresses the need for efficient and secure authentication processes without the need for repeated full re-registrations.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced security through unique identifiers and key management.
  • Streamlined authentication processes.
  • Improved user experience with reduced re-registration requirements.

Commercial Applications: This technology can be utilized in industries such as telecommunications, IoT devices, and secure data transmission services to enhance security and streamline authentication processes.

Prior Art: Readers can explore prior art related to authentication processes, key management systems, and secure data transmission technologies to understand the evolution of this innovation.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in authentication technologies, key management systems, and secure data transmission protocols to leverage the latest developments in the field.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does this technology improve the efficiency of authentication processes? 2. What are the potential implications of this innovation in the telecommunications industry?


Original Abstract Submitted

an apparatus comprising means for obtaining a subscription permanent identifier for said apparatus in a primary authentication process; means for obtaining a root session key; means for generating an authentication and key management for applications (akma) key based on said root session key; means for generating a temporary identifier for the akma key at least partly based on a first routing indicator value obtained from a unified data management (udm) function; means for initiating, in response to receiving a request from the udm function to update the temporary identifier for the akma key using a second routing indicator value without a request to re-register the temporary identifier for the akma key updated based on the second routing indicator value, a re-registration process of the temporary identifier for the akma key using at least said subscription permanent identifier and the second routing indicator value.
