NETWORK SLICING BASED VPLMN PRIORITIZATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240284320 titled 'NETWORK SLICING BASED VPLMN PRIORITIZATION
Simplified Explanation: The patent application discusses systems and methods for prioritizing network slicing based on visited or non-public networks in a roaming scenario for wireless communication devices.
- The method involves obtaining Steering of Roaming (SoR) information for the device, which includes a prioritized list of networks based on requested network slices and subscriptions.
- This information is then sent to the wireless communication device to optimize its network connectivity.
- Various embodiments of network functions, wireless communication devices, and methods of operation are also disclosed in the application.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Prioritization of network slicing based on visited or non-public networks in a roaming scenario.
- Optimization of network connectivity for wireless communication devices through Steering of Roaming (SoR) information.
- Enhanced network performance and user experience in different network environments.
Potential Applications: The technology can be applied in telecommunications, mobile networks, and IoT devices to improve network efficiency and user experience.
Problems Solved:
- Addressing network congestion and performance issues in roaming scenarios.
- Enhancing network selection and connectivity for wireless communication devices.
- Improving the overall quality of service for users in diverse network environments.
Benefits:
- Enhanced network performance and reliability.
- Improved user experience with optimized network connectivity.
- Efficient utilization of network resources in roaming scenarios.
Commercial Applications: Potential commercial applications include telecommunications companies, network operators, and device manufacturers looking to enhance network performance and user satisfaction in roaming scenarios.
Prior Art: Research on network slicing, network prioritization, and roaming optimization in wireless communication devices can provide insights into similar technologies and approaches.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in network slicing, network optimization, and roaming technologies to leverage the latest innovations in wireless communication networks.
