Network Paging Policy Based on Device Mobility Category
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current wireless access networks face inefficiencies in managing diverse user equipment (UE) devices with varying mobility patterns, leading to unnecessary network resource usage due to uniform paging practices across different mobility categories.
Innovation Solution
Implementing a tailored network paging policy based on UE device mobility categories, where a subscriber profile management device registers and stores mobility categories, and a computer device in the network uses this information to determine the appropriate base stations to send paging messages, optimizing the number of cells to page based on the device's mobility category.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If uniform paging practices are applied to all UE devices regardless of mobility category, then network coverage and reliability are maintained, but network resource usage increases unnecessarily
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by tailoring paging parameters specifically to high mobility UE devices rather than applying uniform paging to all devices. The network configures dedicated paging parameters including increased paging repetition factors, extended paging intervals, and modified paging message structures for high mobility devices, while maintaining standard paging for other devices. This localized optimization ensures reliable coverage for high mobility devices without unnecessarily consuming network resources for devices with different mobility characteristics.
2Device complexity
If standardized paging procedures are used for all devices, then network operation is simplified, but paging efficiency decreases for devices with specific mobility patterns
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamics by introducing mobility category-based paging parameter configuration that adapts to different UE mobility patterns. The network dynamically selects appropriate paging parameters based on the UE's mobility category, with high mobility devices receiving customized paging configurations including adjusted timing, repetition patterns, and message structures. This dynamic adaptation improves paging efficiency for high mobility devices while maintaining manageable network operation through automated category-based parameter selection.
3Productivity
If mobility category-specific paging parameters are configured, then paging efficiency improves for high mobility devices, but network complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-configuring mobility categories and their associated paging parameters in advance. The network maintains a predefined set of paging parameter profiles corresponding to different mobility categories, allowing rapid parameter selection without complex real-time calculations. When a high mobility device is identified, the network retrieves and applies the appropriate pre-configured parameter set, improving paging efficiency while managing network complexity through预先 prepared configurations.

AI summary
A computer device may include a processor configured to detect a condition to page a user equipment (UE) device, retrieve mobility category information associated with the UE device from a mobility database, and use the retrieved mobility category information to determine a paging policy. The computer device may be further configured to select a number of base station cells to which the computer device is to send a paging message based on the determined paging policy and page the UE device using the selected number of base station cells.
