Managed Entity Adaptation for Dynamic Wireless Service Requirements
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current wireless communication systems face challenges in dynamically adapting managed entities to meet changing service requirements for applications, such as varying quality of service (QoS) and network slice configurations, which can lead to suboptimal performance and user experience.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that obtain an association of a management service with an application, receive trigger event reports, and determine adaptations to managed entities, such as network slice instances or functions, to transmit adjustments to a management service producer, enabling dynamic configuration and optimization of service parameters.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If managed entity configurations are used in current wireless communication systems, then network management is maintained, but the systems cannot dynamically adapt to changing service requirements leading to suboptimal performance
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic adaptation by enabling the managed entity configuration to be modified in real-time based on changing service requirements. The system allows trigger events to initiate configuration changes, transforming the static managed entity configuration into a dynamic one that can adapt to varying QoS parameters, network conditions, and application demands without requiring complete reconfiguration or system redesign.
2Productivity
If static managed entity configurations are used, then system stability is maintained, but performance becomes suboptimal when service requirements change
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms through trigger events that monitor service requirements, QoS parameters, and network conditions. When changes are detected, the feedback loop initiates configuration adaptation of the managed entity. This feedback-driven approach automates the complexity of configuration management, allowing the system to maintain high performance without manually managing the complexity of dynamic reconfiguration.
3Reliability
If managed entity adaptation is implemented, then optimal quality of service is achieved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the adaptation mechanism into distinct functional components: trigger event detection, configuration determination, and configuration application. This segmentation allows each component to be independently managed and optimized. The trigger events are separated from the configuration management logic, enabling the system to achieve QoS optimization without monolithic complexity, as each segment can be implemented and maintained independently.
