Solution Overview

Problem

In existing 5G wireless networks, mission critical users are unable to identify the correct group member for task delegation due to the lack of sharing of functional aliases during conference notifications.

Innovation Solution

A method and system that enables a server to share functional aliases of group members in a conference event package through a SIP NOTIFY message, allowing client devices to process and display this information on the user interface, enabling users to select appropriate participants based on roles.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If functional alias information is not shared in conference notifications, then the notification system remains simple and lightweight, but users cannot identify correct group members for task delegation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefunctional alias informationVSAvoidconference notification system
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The functional alias information is prepared and attached to the endpoint identifier in advance within the conference event package before notification is sent. This preliminary preparation ensures that when the notification is delivered, all necessary identification information is already available, eliminating the need for additional lookup operations or complex post-processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The functional alias acts as an intermediary information element that bridges the gap between the endpoint identifier and the human-readable role description. By introducing this intermediate layer in the notification payload, the system enables users to understand member roles without requiring complex querying mechanisms or additional system infrastructure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If functional alias is included in SIP NOTIFY message, then users can identify group members' roles for task delegation, but the message structure becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetask delegationVSAvoidSIP NOTIFY message structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The functional alias information element is nested within the existing endpoint message structure of the SIP NOTIFY message. By placing the functional alias as a child element of the endpoint identifier structure, the solution leverages the existing message framework without requiring fundamental changes to the protocol structure, thus minimizing complexity while adding functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

3Productivity

If functional alias information is provided for all group members, then task delegation becomes accurate and efficient, but the information overhead in conference package increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetask delegation efficiencyVSAvoidinformation overhead
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The functional alias information is extracted only for those endpoint identifiers that require role identification for task delegation purposes. Rather than universally adding functional aliases to all members regardless of need, the solution selectively includes this information where it enables accurate task delegation, thereby minimizing unnecessary information overhead while maintaining productivity benefits.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

AI summary

The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. Embodiments herein provide a method for handling functional alias in a conference event package in a wireless network by a server. The method includes detecting a group call associated with a group in the wireless network. Further, the method includes providing a SIP NOTIFY message comprising an ID of each member of a plurality of members of the group, and an IE indicating the functional alias bound by each member of the plurality of members with the group. Further, the method includes sending the SIP NOTIFY message to a client device corresponding to each member of the plurality of members of the group.
