Private Sub-Network Data Transmission via Dedicated Bearers
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Transmitting data flows over cellular networks can be costly due to excess network resource usage and individual client device access charges, especially when providers offer more resources than needed.
Innovation Solution
Implementing a private network within a service provider network to transmit data between client devices and a central application device, which provides sufficient network resources without excess, thereby reducing network load and costs by isolating client device data from the public network.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of energy
If data flows are transmitted over the cellular network using public network resources, then data transmission is enabled, but network costs increase and network load increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the cellular network into a public network portion and a private network portion. The private network is created by allocating dedicated network resources (bearers) within the cellular network infrastructure, separating data transmission paths for different types of traffic. This allows data flows to be transmitted over the private network without consuming public network resources, reducing network load and costs while maintaining transmission capability.
2Loss of energy
If individual client devices access the cellular network directly, then data transmission is enabled, but access costs increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple client devices into a single private network group with shared network resources. Instead of each client device accessing the cellular network individually and paying separate access costs, the private network consolidates access through shared bearers, reducing individual access costs while maintaining ease of operation through centralized management.
3Reliability
If the cellular network provides greater network resources than needed, then data transmission reliability is improved, but network cost efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by allocating network resources specifically for the private network within the cellular network infrastructure. Dedicated bearers are created with appropriate resource allocations tailored to the specific needs of the private network, ensuring sufficient reliability for data transmission while avoiding the waste of providing excessive resources across the entire public network. This localized resource allocation optimizes both reliability and cost efficiency.

AI summary
A first device may receive data associated with a second device from within a first network and independently of a second network. The second device may include a sensor or an application to form or process a data record. The first device may establish a bearer between the first device and a particular user device, of multiple user devices, in accordance with a bearer policy; and provide the data towards the particular user device via a first sub-network, of multiple sub-networks, of the second network and via the bearer. The first sub-network may be independent of a second sub-network of the multiple sub-networks. The second sub-network may permit user device data to be transmitted between the multiple user devices. The first sub-network and the second sub-network may consume different levels of network resources.
