Abstract
A method for activation or deactivation, for a terminal, of a virtual subset of a telecommunications network referred to as a “network slice”, dedicated to a service. The telecommunications network includes comprising a plurality of network slices. The method includes at least: acquiring at least one piece of context data of a user; and activating or deactivating at least one network slice among the plurality of network slices on the basis of the previously acquired piece of context data.
Claims11
A method for activation or deactivation, for a terminal, of a virtual subset of a telecommunications network referred to as a “network slice”, dedicated to a service, the telecommunications network comprising a plurality of network slices, the method being implemented by the terminal and comprising at least:
- a) acquiring at least one piece of context data of a user, and
- b) activating or deactivating at least one network slice among the plurality of network slices, on the basis of the previously acquired piece of context data.
A terminal for activation and or deactivation of a virtual subset of a telecommunications network referred to as a “network slice”, dedicated to a service, the telecommunications network comprising a plurality of network slices, the terminal comprising:
- a context data reader configured to acquire at least one piece of context data of a user, and
- an activation/deactivation member configured to activate or deactivate at least one network slice among the plurality of network slices, on the basis of the previously acquired piece of context data.
A device for supervising access for activation and or deactivation of a virtual subset of a telecommunications network referred to as a “network slice”, dedicated to a service, the telecommunications network comprising a plurality of network slices, the device for supervising access being in communication with a plurality of terminals and comprising:
- a context data reader configured to acquire at least one piece of context data of a user,
- the device for supervising access being configured to activate or deactivate a network slice for the plurality of terminals on the basis of the previously acquired piece of context data.
(canceled)
A non-transitory storage medium readable by a terminal, on which code instructions of a computer program are stored, which when executed by a terminal configure the terminal to implement a method for activation or deactivation, for the terminal, of a virtual subset of a telecommunications network referred to as a “network slice”, dedicated to a service, the telecommunications network comprising a plurality of network slices, the method comprising at least:
- a) acquiring at least one piece of context data of a user, and
- b) activating or deactivating at least one network slice among the plurality of network slices, on the basis of the previously acquired piece of context data.
