摘要:
A method for User Equipment (UE) power management in a wireless communication system is provided. A connection manager of the communication system receives a power management policy from a third party entity. The policy directs setting of a power management scheme according to status information of the UE. The third party entity is functionally separate from the UE and a network domain associated with the connection manager. Status information is received from the UE. A power management instruction is transmitted towards the UE to modify power management parameters stored in the UE.
摘要:
Systems and methods for operating network slices in a communication network such as a 5th generation wireless communication network are provided. Mobile device attach requests can be handled in which an appropriate network slice is selected for attaching the mobile device to. Customer service requests can be handled using existing network slices or by instantiating new network slices as needed. Mobile devices can be associated to new network slices due to roaming. Network slices can be monitored and scaled as required to maintain performance. Cloud resource assignment, mobile device power management, traffic engineering and flow management operations are also disclosed.
摘要:
A method for managing network slice enabled traffic on a communications network is disclosed. The network slice is instantiated on the communications network for providing connectivity resources to a network operator using the communications network. The method comprises measuring a traffic level indicative of the traffic enabled by the network slice; and adjusting the traffic enabled by the network slice in accordance with the traffic level and a network operator enabled function associated with the network slice.
摘要:
The present application provides a method and system for the operation of a management plane function to co-ordinate management of slice and slice-related resources within a communications network.
摘要:
Systems and methods are disclosed for unified data management in a communication network. According to embodiments, the unified data management methods and systems can provide management of some control plane data, for example data that may be shared by multiple network functions (NF). According to embodiments, virtualization of the data storage if further provided.
摘要:
A method for managing a communications network includes providing a parent network manager in a parent domain of the communications network, and providing a child network manager in a child domain of the communications network. The parent network manager comprises at least one of a parent Service Oriented Network Auto Creation (SONAC) function and a parent MANagement and Orchestration (MANO) function. The child network manager comprises at least one of a child Service Oriented Network Auto Creation (SONAC) function and a child MANagement and Orchestration (MANO) function. The parent and child network managers cooperate to optimize management of the parent and child domains of the communications network.
摘要:
A system for managing a network comprising an Operator Domain. The system comprises a hierarchical system of management functions; and a respective service catalogue associated with each management function. The service catalogue storing information of services that can be provided by the management function to at least one higher level management function.
摘要:
A telecom connectivity service provider (TCSP) and a method for allocating an infrastructure resource to a virtual network operator (VNO). A TCSP control element sends to a downstream control element, a request for a portion of the infrastructure to be allocated to the TCSP by an infrastructure provider (InP) and receives a response from the downstream control element providing access to and control of the allocated infrastructure. The TCSP control element can pool the allocated infrastructure with other resources allocated to the TCSP and/or communicate with an upstream control element for providing access to and control of the allocated infrastructure to the VNO. The downstream control element is a local InP control element or a downstream TCSP control element. The upstream control element is a VNO control element or an upstream TCSP control element.
摘要:
There is disclosed a system for transmitting data to users. The system includes nodes interconnected by at least one data network. The nodes are organized hierarchically to comprise a root node and at least two child nodes. The data transmission characteristics of communication with each of the child nodes are different. The root node is configured to: receive data transmission preferences of a particular user; receive data to be transmitted to the particular user; and transmit a selected subset of the data to at least one of the child nodes. The subset selected based on at least the received data transmission preferences and the data transmission characteristics, to permit the particular user to obtain data from the child nodes according to the data transmission preferences. The at least one of the child nodes being configured to: receive data from the root node; and transmit at least part of the received data to the user.
摘要:
A system for managing a network comprising at least one network slice instance including at least one network slice subnet instance. The system comprises a network slice management function associated with each network slice instance, the network slice management function configured to manage its associated network slice instance; and a network slice subnet management function associated with each network slice subnet instance, the network slice management function configured to manage its associated network slice subnet instance.
