METHOD FOR SUPPORTING HANDOVER AND CORRESPONDING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18449644 titled 'METHOD FOR SUPPORTING HANDOVER AND CORRESPONDING APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

- The patent application is about a communication method and system that combines 5G technology with Internet of Things (IoT) technology. - It aims to support higher data rates than the previous 4G system and enable intelligent services in various areas such as smart home, smart city, and healthcare. - The application specifically focuses on a method for a base station to support a smooth transition from an evolved packet system (EPS) to a 5G system. - The disclosed methods address the issue of data forwarding when a user equipment (UE) moves between an LTE system and a 5G system. - These methods ensure that data loss is avoided and the continuity of services is maintained during the handover process.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. The present application provides a method of a base station for supporting an inter-system handover from an evolved packet system (EPS) system to a 5th generation (5G) system. Disclosed methods solve the data forwarding problem during the movement of a UE between an LTE system and a 5G system, so that the loss of data is avoided and the continuity of services is ensured.
