Sensing Service QoS Configuration for User-Plane Reliability
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current communication systems face challenges in configuring appropriate Quality of Service (QoS) parameters for user-plane connections to meet the stringent transmission requirements of sensing services, which involve large volumes of data with specific precision, accuracy, and latency needs.
Innovation Solution
Determine QoS parameters based on the requirements of sensing services, such as precision and accuracy, to ensure effective transmission over the user plane by involving network elements like the sensing network element, PCF, or UDR, to configure QoS settings for terminal devices.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If QoS parameters are configured for user-plane connection to meet sensing service requirements, then transmission quality is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by pre-configuring QoS parameters in the network before sensing data transmission begins. The network element determines appropriate QoS parameters based on sensing service requirements and configures them in advance, ensuring transmission quality is maintained without requiring complex real-time adjustments during data transfer
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a network element as an intermediary that mediates between the sensing service requirements and the user-plane connection configuration. This intermediary network element determines and configures QoS parameters, simplifying the overall system by centralizing the complex configuration task in a dedicated component rather than distributing complexity across multiple devices
2Reliability
If QoS parameters are configured to ensure large volume sensing data transmission, then transmission reliability is improved, but signaling overhead increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the QoS configuration function from the general signaling process and handles it separately through dedicated network elements. By separating the QoS parameter determination and configuration from the main data transmission signaling, the patent reduces signaling overhead while ensuring transmission reliability through targeted QoS configuration for sensing services
Data Source
AI summary
A first network element includes a transceiver, a memory and a processor. The memory is configured to store a program, and the processor is configured to invoke the program in the memory to cause the first network element to perform: transmitting a QoS parameter associated with a first sensing service to a second network element. The QoS parameter is determined based on a requirement parameter of the first sensing service.
