Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure relate to service continuity for applications in wireless communications. An apparatus such as a first network equipment (NE) (e.g., a Vertical Application Layer (VAL) server) transmits to a second NE (e.g., a Network Slice Capability Exposure (NSCE) server), a first request message for a service operation, the first request message including a first resource Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for a first Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) POST method and one or more first data types pertaining to a network slice. The service operation, for instance, includes an indication of service continuity for an application. The first NE receives, from the second NE, a first response message including an updated network slice.
Claims20
A first network equipment (NE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- at least one memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and operable to cause the first NE to:
- transmit, to a second NE, a first request message for a service operation, the first request message comprising a first resource Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for a first Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) POST method and one or more first data types pertaining to a network slice, the service operation comprising an indication of service continuity for an application;
- and
- receive, from the second NE, a first response message comprising an updated network slice.
A second network equipment (NE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- at least one memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and operable to cause the second NE to:
- receive, from a first NE, a first request message for a service operation, the first request message comprising a first resource Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for a first Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) POST method and one or more first data types pertaining to a network slice, the service operation comprising an indication of service continuity for an application;
- transmit, to a third NE, a second request message for the service operation comprising a second resource URI for a second HTTP POST method and one or more second data types pertaining to a network slice;
- receive, from the third NE, a second response message comprising an updated network slice;
- and
- transmit, to the first NE, a third response message comprising the updated network slice.
A third network equipment (NE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- at least one memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and operable to cause the third NE to:
- receive, from a second NE, a second request message for a service operation comprising a second resource Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for a second Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) POST method and one or more second data types pertaining to a network slice, the service operation comprising an indication of service continuity for an application;
- and
- transmit, to the second NE, a second response message comprising an updated network slice.
A method performed by a first network equipment (NE), the method comprising:
- transmitting, to a second NE, a first request message for a service operation, the first request message comprising a first resource Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for a first Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) POST method and one or more first data types pertaining to a network slice, the service operation comprising an indication of service continuity for an application;
- and
- receiving, from the second NE, a first response message comprising an updated network slice.
