METHOD FOR CONFIGURING EVOLVED PACKET SYSTEM NON-ACCESS STRATUM SECURITY ALGORITHM AND RELATED APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18232227 titled 'METHOD FOR CONFIGURING EVOLVED PACKET SYSTEM NON-ACCESS STRATUM SECURITY ALGORITHM AND RELATED APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

This patent application describes a method and apparatus for configuring a security algorithm in a communication system.

  • The method involves determining if a selected security algorithm has been successfully provided to a terminal device.
  • If the algorithm has not been successfully provided, it is provided to the terminal device again.
  • This ensures that the security algorithm is properly configured for the terminal device.
  • The invention improves the reliability and effectiveness of the security algorithm configuration process.


Original Abstract Submitted

This application discloses a method for configuring an EPS NAS security algorithm, and a related apparatus in the field of communication technologies. In the technical solution provided in this application, an access and mobility management function entity needs to determine whether a selected EPS NAS security algorithm has been successfully provided to a terminal device, and after determining that the selected EPS NAS security algorithm has not been successfully provided to the terminal device, the access and mobility management function entity provides the selected EPS NAS security algorithm to the terminal device again. According to the technical solution provided in this application, it is ensured that the access and mobility management function entity can successfully configure the EPS NAS security algorithm for the terminal device.
