Context Service Delivery via Dedicated Channel and Location Authentication
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing solutions fail to effectively identify and differentiate users with access rights to context services within a predefined service area from those with general service access rights, limiting the ability to provide tailored services based on user location and access permissions.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that determine a user's service profile and location within a predefined service area, assigning a dedicated communication channel and authenticating users to deliver context services only to those within the area, with options for full or partial service delivery based on location, using a wireless communication network and data network infrastructure.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If general network access is provided to all users, then network coverage and accessibility are improved, but the ability to differentiate and restrict access to dedicated services based on user rights and location deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the network service into two distinct layers: a public access layer that provides general network coverage to all users, and a dedicated service layer that is segmented by user rights profiles and geographic location. This segmentation allows simultaneous provision of universal access and controlled access to specific services, resolving the contradiction between network accessibility and service access control.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by assigning different service delivery qualities to different users based on their location within the context area and their rights profile. Users with appropriate rights and location receive enhanced dedicated services with higher quality, while other users receive only general services, thus maintaining both broad accessibility and controlled service differentiation.
2Reliability
If dedicated services are restricted to specific users and areas, then service security and authorization control are improved, but the complexity of user identification and service delivery deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a universal rights profile structure that can be applied across different users and services. The rights profile serves multiple functions: identifying user authorization level, determining service eligibility, and controlling access rights. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate complex identification systems for each service, thereby lowering overall system complexity while maintaining robust access control.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a rights profile as an intermediary element between the user and the dedicated service. Rather than directly complex user identification, the system uses the rights profile as a mediator that encapsulates authorization information, simplifying the interaction between users and services while ensuring secure access control through standardized profile-based authentication.
3Measurement precision
If location-based service delivery is implemented, then service precision and user experience are improved, but the requirement for location determination and service differentiation deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent determines user location and rights profile in advance before service delivery, and makes preliminary decisions about service eligibility and type. This preliminary action allows the system to prepare appropriate service configurations based on user context, reducing the need for complex real-time service differentiation mechanisms during actual service delivery.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamic service delivery that adapts to user location and rights profile. The service delivery system dynamically adjusts the type and quality of services provided based on real-time user context, allowing precise location-based service differentiation without requiring static complex configurations for every possible user-scenario combination.
Data Source
AI summary
A method for delivering to a user a dedicated service restricted to a predefined service area includes, performing an access request to a dedicated service. The dedicated service is delivered from a server through a data network between a user device and the server. The method also includes determining a service profile associated with the user, and assigning to the user device a dedicated communication channel for the dedicated service. The method further includes starting a communication session with the server through the data network according to the assigned dedicated communication channel, and performing an authentication request to the server. If the service authenticates the user successfully, the position of the user is obtained, and the dedicated service is delivered to the user device.
