Abstract
A network management method and a network entity are provided. In the method, a detection result is obtained. One of multiple network slices is switched to another according to the detection result. The detection result is a result of detecting an image. Each network slice provides a network resource. The image is accessed through the network resource. Accordingly, a network setting parameter could be dynamically adjusted to save energy.
Claims18
A network management method, comprising:
- obtaining a detection result, the detection result being a result of detecting an image;
- switching one of a plurality of network slices to another, according to the detection result, each of the network slices providing a network resource, and the image being accessed through the network resource, wherein the network slices comprise a first network slice and a second network slice, wherein the network resource provided by the second network slice is superior to the network resource provided by the first network slice;
- defining an environment, wherein the environment comprises the network slices and a sensing network, wherein the sensing network uses network resources provided by the network slices, and the image is accessed through the sensing network;
- inputting an observation result of the environment into a policy for determining a setting parameter of the network resources provided by the network slices, wherein a reward of the environment determines the policy, the observation result means the network slices, the policy is a transition function, and the reward is an evaluation of the setting parameter;
- and
- adjusting the policy according to the reward.
