METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SUPPORTING HANDOVER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240259886 titled 'METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SUPPORTING HANDOVER
The present disclosure discusses a method and system for integrating a 5th-generation (5G) communication system with Internet of Things (IoT) technology to support higher data rates and enable intelligent services in various sectors.
- This innovation allows for the convergence of 5G communication technology and IoT-related services such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security, and safety services.
- The method described involves supporting handover by receiving messages from a central unit control plane entity of a target base station, receiving data packets from a source base station, and discarding packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) service data units (SDU) based on the received data packet's PDCP sequence number (SN) according to the indication of the message.
Potential Applications:
- Smart home automation systems
- Connected car technologies
- Healthcare monitoring devices
- Smart city infrastructure
- Digital education platforms
Problems Solved:
- Seamless handover between base stations in a 5G network
- Integration of high-speed data transmission with IoT devices
- Efficient management of data packets in a converged network
