Terminal Triggering Method for Network Burden Reduction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current communication solutions lead to increased network burden when a terminal is unable to set up a data connection with a server, as the server repeatedly sends trigger requests, causing unnecessary signaling load.
Innovation Solution
A terminal triggering method where the terminal determines if it can set up a data connection with the server and sends indicating information to suspend subsequent trigger requests, using a back off timer and application list to manage access point congestion.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the server repeatedly sends trigger requests to the terminal when data connection setup fails, then the server can ensure data delivery, but the network burden and signaling load increase
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal provides feedback to the server about its data connection setup capability through indicating information. When the terminal determines it cannot set up a data connection, it sends indicating information to the server, which then stops sending trigger requests. This feedback mechanism allows the server to adapt its behavior based on terminal status, ensuring reliable data delivery only when the terminal is capable of receiving data, thereby avoiding unnecessary network burden from repeated trigger requests.
2Loss of energy
If the terminal sends indicating information to suspend trigger requests, then the network burden is reduced, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal autonomously determines its own data connection setup capability and makes the decision to send indicating information to the server. The terminal uses its own judgment about whether it can set up a data connection, and based on this self-assessment, it controls the sending of indicating information to suspend or allow trigger requests. This self-service approach simplifies the overall system by eliminating the need for complex centralized control mechanisms.
3Measurement precision
If the terminal uses back off timer and application list to manage access, then the access control precision is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal pre-configures a back off timer and an application list before attempting data connection setup. The application list identifies which applications are allowed to trigger data connections, and the back off timer controls the timing and frequency of connection attempts. By preparing these control mechanisms in advance, the terminal can precisely manage access to data connections based on application priority and timing requirements, achieving fine-grained access control without requiring complex real-time decision-making mechanisms.

AI summary
The present invention discloses a terminal triggering terminal and a related device, where, the terminal triggering method includes: receiving, by a network device, a trigger request message sent by a server to a terminal, where, the trigger request message is configured to trigger the terminal to set up a data connection with the server; sending, when the network device determines that the terminal is unable to set up a data connection with the server, indicating information used to indicates data gateway overload or indicating information used to indicate that an access point name corresponding to the server is congested, so that the server suspends sending a subsequent trigger request message to the terminal. Implementation of the embodiments of the present invention rectifies a defect of the prior art, according to which when a terminal is unable to set up a data connection with a server, the server repeatedly sends a trigger request message to the terminal, increasing a network burden.
