Edge Interworking Service for Synchronized Dual Registration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Dual registration in certain wireless communication networks often fails to operate effectively due to synchronization issues between primary and secondary registration systems, leading to desynchronization of expiration times and potential security credential exposure.
Innovation Solution
The method involves coordinating dual registration by transmitting request messages with application profiles, security information, and requested registration areas to edge interworking services, which then coordinate with primary and secondary registration systems to set synchronized expiration times and allowed registration areas, ensuring secure and synchronized dual registration.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If dual registration is performed in wireless communication networks, then service coverage and connectivity options are improved, but synchronization between primary and secondary registration systems deteriorates leading to desynchronized expiration times
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms where the network side device receives expiration time information from both primary and secondary registration systems, compares these times, and sends coordination instructions to adjust expiration times. This continuous feedback loop ensures that expiration times remain synchronized across multiple registration systems, resolving the contradiction between expanded service coverage and maintained synchronization stability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent dynamically adjusts expiration time parameters based on real-time comparisons between primary and secondary registration systems. When desynchronization is detected, the system modifies expiration time parameters through coordination instructions sent to relevant registration systems, ensuring consistent expiration behavior across the dual registration architecture while maintaining broad service coverage.
2Ease of operation
If dual registration is performed to enhance connectivity, then user access to services is improved, but security credential exposure risk increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a network side device as an intermediary that manages communication between user equipment and both primary and secondary registration systems. This intermediary coordinates security credential handling, ensuring that credentials are transmitted and validated through controlled channels, thereby maintaining ease of user access while preventing security credential exposure through centralized security management.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary security checks and credential validations before establishing dual registration. The network side device verifies security parameters and coordinates authentication procedures in advance, ensuring that security credentials are protected from exposure while enabling smooth user access to services through pre-established secure channels.
3Stability of the object's composition
If expiration times are coordinated between registration systems, then synchronization is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service mechanisms where registration systems automatically exchange and compare expiration time information with the network side device without requiring complex manual coordination. The system autonomously detects expiration time mismatches and executes adjustments through standardized protocols, achieving synchronization while minimizing the complexity of coordination mechanisms through automated self-managed processes.
