A method to support device management in next-generation five-way wireless connectivity, where Internet of Things (IoT) devices and base stations are configured to communicate with IoT devices (FIG. 4A).

Abstract

The invention relates to supporting 5G NR connectivity for Internet of Things (IoT) devices by adding one or more 5G MR network channel support information elements to the connection monitoring object of the Lightweight Machine-to-Machine (LwM2M) protocol, and using specific 5G parameters to add support for non-standalone (NSA) 5G and / or standalone (SA) 5G objects for the LwM2M protocol. Specifically, the patent refers to a method for supporting device management in Fifth Generation wireless connectivity, where Internet of Things (IoT) devices and base stations are configured to communicate with other IoT devices.
