5G QoS Configuration via Core Network Intermediary
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In 5G networks, distinguishing and configuring different Quality of Service (QoS) resource types, such as Guaranteed Bit Rate (GBR), Non-Guaranteed Bit Rate (Non-GBR), and delay critical GBR, is challenging for access network devices, affecting transmission efficiency.
Innovation Solution
A method where the core network device sends configuration information to the access network device to uniquely determine the QoS resource type, allowing targeted QoS provisioning, including using identification or description information to specify the QoS type, and adjusting configurations based on feedback for supported resource types.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the access network device manually distinguishes and configures different QoS resource types, then service transmission can be performed, but the device complexity and configuration difficulty increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The core network device acts as an intermediary that generates and sends configuration information to the access network device. This configuration information includes identification or description fields that uniquely determine the QoS resource type, thereby mediating the complexity from the access network device to the core network device where centralized control resides.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces specific parameters (identification information or description information) in the configuration data that enable the access network device to automatically determine QoS resource types. By changing the parameter structure of configuration information, the system transforms manual configuration into automated parameter-based configuration, reducing operational complexity.
2Reliability
If multiple QoS resource types are supported with detailed configurations, then service quality improves, but the time required for configuration and processing increases
Solution Approach 1:
The core network device performs preliminary actions by pre-generating configuration information that includes predetermined identification or description information for different QoS resource types. This preparation work is done in advance, allowing the access network device to quickly determine the appropriate QoS type without time-consuming manual analysis when services need to be deployed.
Solution Approach 2:
The access network device sends feedback information to the core network device regarding supported resource types. The core network device uses this feedback to adjust and optimize configuration information, creating a closed-loop system that reduces iterative configuration time while maintaining service quality through continuous optimization.

AI summary
Disclosed in embodiments of the present application are a service configuration method and a related product, the method comprising: a core network device sending first configuration information to an access network device, the first configuration information being used to indicate one quality of service (QoS) resource type to be selected from among multiple QoS resource types, and the QoS resource type indicated by the first configuration information being used on the access network device to transmit a first service; the multiple QoS resource types comprise a guaranteed bit rate (GBR) type, non-GBR type and a delay-critical GBR type. An access network device embodied in the present application can alone determine a QoS resource type, thereby increasing service transmission efficiency.
