Instantiating a slice of a 5G or other next generation service network in an underserved area
摘要
說明書
To facilitate establishing a communication session, the slice component 118 can initiate, establish, or facilitate establishing (e.g., generating) a communication connection between a communication device (e.g., 110) and the communication network 102 (e.g., a network device of the communication network 102 via a mobile network (NW) device 124 (e.g., mobile network node device) of the slice component 118, for example, when the movable component 120 and associated slice component 118 are located (e.g., travel to be located) in proximity to (e.g., within a defined distance of) the communication device (e.g., 110). For instance, the movable component 120, and associated slice component 118, can move to a location that is sufficiently in proximity to the communication device (e.g., 110) to enable a communication connection to be established between the communication device (e.g., 110) and the slice component 118 (e.g., the mobile network device 124 of the slice component 118) using a desired communication technology(ies) and associated communication protocol(s). The communication technology(ies), and associated communication protocol(s), can be virtually any communication technology and associated protocol, such as, for example, any of the wireless communication technologies (and associated communication protocols) disclosed herein.
The mobile network device 124 also can establish a connection with the network node device 104 of the communication network 102 to facilitate establishing the communication connection between the communication device (e.g., 110) and the communication network 102 and associated network slice component 122 (e.g., via the mobile network device 124 and the network node device 104).
