Application: Connecting to virtualized mobile core networks (Patent ID: US20240196452A1)

The patent filed by InterDigital Inc. describes a 5G Network Architecture that utilizes virtualization and network slicing. The user equipment (UE) interacts with an underlay network to establish connections to virtual network slices. Procedures are defined for assigning new slice instances to a UE, changing a UE Profile, and changing a UE's assigned slice instance. The method involves sending initial connection messages from the UE to an underlay network function, receiving response messages with new temporary identifiers and slice identifiers, and determining connections to default slices based on service descriptors and capabilities of the UE. The network node interfaces with the slices, routes control plane packets, and triggers profile changes based on subscription updates or user-initiated events.

The patent also includes methods for handling profile change requests, sending new slice requests, and receiving new slice responses. The UE is provisioned to check for available access points and services before accessing network services, and can receive broadcasts with service identifiers. Additionally, the patent describes scenarios where initial connection messages may not include service descriptors, and the network node determines slice identifiers based on subscription information associated with default indications. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive approach to managing connections, profiles, and slice instances in a 5G network architecture using virtualization and network slicing.
