Abstract
A method or enabling compression context setup for Internet-of-Thing, IoT, devices in a communication network is presented. The method is performed in an application server node for IoT devices, and includes sending a get context message to a gateway node, the get context message requesting a compression context setup includes compression details for an IoT device, receiving an indication of the requested compression context setup for the IoT device from the gateway node, and compressing and decompressing messages sent to and from the IoT device based on the received indication. An IoT device, a gateway node, an application node, a computer program and a computer program product thereof are also presented.
Claims18
A method of operating an application server node for Internet-of-Thing (“IoT”) devices to enable compression context setup for the IoT devices, the method comprising:
- transmitting a get context message to a gateway node in a Low Power Wide Area (“LPWA”) network that includes the application server node and the IoT devices, the get context message requesting a compression context setup comprising compression details for an IoT device of the IoT devices, the compression context setup comprising at least one of:
- application layer compression details for the IoT device;
- and
- Internet Protocol (“IP”) layer compression details for the IoT device;
- receiving an indication of the compression context setup for the IoT device from the gateway node, the indication comprises a pointer to a context storage node storing compression details for the IoT device;
- and
- compressing or decompressing a message communicated with the IoT device based on the indication.
An application server node for enabling compression context setup for Internet-of-Thing (“IoT”) devices, the application server node comprising:
- processing circuitry;
- and
- a memory coupled to the processing circuitry and having instructions stored therein that are executable by the processing circuitry to cause the application server node to perform operations comprising:
- transmitting a get context message to a gateway node in a Low Power Wide Area (“LPWA”) network that includes the application server node and the IoT devices, the get context message requesting a compression context setup comprising compression details for an IoT device of the IoT devices, the compression context setup comprising at least one of:
- application layer compression details for the IoT device;
- and
- Internet Protocol (“IP”) layer compression details for the IoT device;
- receiving an indication of the compression context setup for the IoT device from the gateway node, the indication comprises a pointer to a context storage node storing compression details for the IoT device;
- and
- compressing or decompressing a message communicated with the IoT device based on the indication.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored therein that are executable by processing circuitry in an application server node for Internet-of-Thing (“IoT”) devices to cause the application server node to perform operations to enable compression context setup for the IoT devices, the operations comprising:
- transmitting a get context message to a gateway node in a Low Power Wide Area (“LPWA”) network that includes the application server node and the IoT devices, the get context message requesting a compression context setup comprising compression details for an IoT device of the IoT devices, the compression context setup comprising at least one of:
- application layer compression details for the IoT device;
- and
- Internet Protocol (“IP”) layer compression details for the IoT device;
- receiving an indication of the compression context setup for the IoT device from the gateway node, the indication comprises a pointer to a context storage node storing compression details for the IoT device;
- and
- compressing or decompressing a messages communicated with the IoT device based on the indication.
