Publication number: 20240179210Abstract: There is provided a method for handling execution of a service in a network. The method is performed by a first network node. The first network node is a first network function (NF) node of a service consumer or a first service communication proxy (SCP) node that is configured to operate as an SCP between the first NF node and second NF nodes of a service producer for providing the service. The method is performed in response to an event that signals that the service is to be executed. The method comprises, if a first configuration criterion of the first NF node and/or a second configuration criterion of at least one of the second NF nodes is met, identifying (102) that network traffic for executing the service is to be distributed among the second NF nodes according to a capacity of one or more of the second NF nodes.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 13, 2022Publication date: May 30, 2024Inventors: Maria Cruz Bartolome Rodrigo, Aldo Bolle

Patent number: 11064457Abstract: According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a method of paging policy differentiation in a 5G telecommunications network is provided. A User Plane Function (UPF) receives downlink data for a target User Equipment (UE), and provides a data notification to a Session Management Function (SMF), the data notification comprising a Quality of Service (QoS) indicator, which the SMF uses to determine QoS Information (QoSI) that is sent to an Access Management Function (AMF). The AMF determines whether a paging policy selection should be performed by the AMF or by a Radio Access Node (RAN) that serves the target UE: if by the AMF, the AMF selects a paging policy based on the QoSI and sends a paging message to the RAN, which pages the UE; if by the RAN, the AMF provides paging policy information to the RAN, which selects a paging policy and pages the UE accordingly.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2018Date of Patent: July 13, 2021Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ)Inventors: Aldo Bolle, Qian Chen, Paul Schliwa-Bertling, Stefan Rommer
