Method for network resource allocation based on service information
A patent application (Publication Number: US20240040657A1) describes a method for managing communication between a User Equipment (UE) and a base station in a wireless network. The method involves receiving a request message from the UE over a Primary Cell (PCell) to perform an action with respect to a Secondary Cell (SCell), determining the specific action based on service information, executing the action at the base station, and sending a connection reconfiguration message to the UE to instruct it on the specific action to be performed. The service information can include signal measurements or Quality of Service (QoS) requirements between the UE and the base station.
Furthermore, the patent application details the specific actions that can be performed on the SCell, such as adding, releasing, activating, deactivating, or modifying it. The request message is transmitted as a Radio Resource Control (RRC) layer message, with the service information potentially including an SCell activation cause parameter. The connection reconfiguration message, typically an RRC Connection Reconfiguration Message, is sent to the UE using medium access control (MAC) layer signaling. The application also covers computer-readable storage mediums and devices configured to implement the described method, providing a comprehensive approach to managing SCell communication in wireless networks.
