Abstract
A method performed a 5G media streaming uplink (5GMSu) application provider, comprises discovering an address of a 5GMSu application function (AF). The method comprises establishing a provisioning session with the 5GMSu AF for a 5GMSu session. The method comprises transmitting, during the provisioning session to the 5GMSu AF, a selection of one or more 5GMSu features. The method comprises receiving, from the 5GMSu AF, address information related to the 5GMSu session. The method comprises transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), a service announcement including the address information related to the 5GMSu session. The method comprises receiving, from the UE, content in the uplink streaming session according to the address information.
Claims20
A method performed by at least one processor in a 5G media streaming uplink (5GMSu) application provider, comprising:
- discovering an address of a 5GMSu application function (AF);
- establishing a provisioning session with the 5GMSu AF for a 5GMSu session;
- transmitting, during the provisioning session to the 5GMSu AF, a selection of one or more 5GMSu features;
- receiving, from the 5GMSu AF, address information related to the 5GMSu session;
- transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), a service announcement including the address information related to the 5GMSu session;
- and
- receiving, from the UE, content in the 5GMSu session according to the address information.
A method performed by at least one processor in a 5G media streaming uplink (5GMSu) application function, comprising:
- establishing a provisioning session with a 5GMSu application provider for 5GMSu session;
- receiving, during the provisioning session from the 5GMSu application provider, a selection of one or more 5GMSu features for the 5GMSu session;
- and
- transmitting, to the 5GMSu application provider, address information related to the 5GMSu session.
A 5G media streaming uplink (5GMSu) application provider server, comprising:
- at least one memory configured to store program code;
- and
- at least one processor configured to read the program code and operate as instructed by the program code, the program code including:
- discovering code configured to cause the at least one processor to discover an address of a 5GMSu application function (AF),
- establishing code configured to cause the at least one processor to establish a provisioning session with the 5GMSu AF for streaming 5GMSu session,
- first transmitting code configured to cause the at least one processor to transmit, during the provisioning session to the 5GMSu AF, a selection of one or more 5GMSu features,
- first receiving code configured to cause the at least one processor to receive, from the 5GMSu AF, address information related to the 5GMSu session,
- second transmitting code configured to cause the at least one processor to transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a service announcement including the address information related to the 5GMSu session, and
- second receiving code configured to cause the at least one processor to receive, from the UE, content in the 5GMSu session according to the address information.
A 5G media streaming uplink (5GMSu) application function server, comprising:
- at least one memory configured to store program code;
- and
- at least one processor configured to read the program code and operate as instructed by the program code, the program code including:
- establishing code configured to cause the at least one processor to establish a provisioning session with a 5GMSu application provider for a 5GMSu session;
- receiving code configured to cause the at least one processor to receive, during the provisioning session from the 5GMSu application provider, a selection of one or more 5GMSu features for the 5GMSu session;
- and
- transmitting code configured to cause the at least one processor to transmit, to the 5GMSu application provider, address information related to the 5GMSu session.
