Application: Server, requesting entity, and methods therefor (Patent ID: US20240107424A1)
The patent filed by NEC Corp. describes a system where a first server in an edge data network attempts to identify a second server based on selection criteria, including the congestion state of servers in the network. If the second server is identified, information is sent to the requesting entity; otherwise, a rejection message is sent. This system aims to provide suitable selection criteria for identifying an edge server efficiently.
The patent further details a radio terminal that sends an Edge Application Server (EAS) discovery request to an edge server and receives a response indicating rejection due to congestion, along with information on the waiting period before a new request can be made. The radio terminal may include an Edge Enabler Client (EEC) and the edge server an Edge Enabler Server (EES) located in an Edge Data Network (EDN). Additionally, methods for the radio terminal and edge server are outlined, emphasizing the communication process and congestion management within the network. These innovations aim to streamline server discovery and selection processes in edge data networks, enhancing overall network efficiency and performance.
