- the repository node used in the present disclosure may indicate the NRF described above.
- the network node used in the present disclosure may indicate the NWDAF service consumer described above.
- the data analytics node used in the present disclosure may indicate the NWDAF described above.
- a and/or B and/or C includes any and all combinations of one or more of A, B, and C, including A, B, C, A and B, A and C, B and C, and a combination of A and B and C.
- A/B/C includes any and all combinations of one or more of A, B, and C, including A, B, C, A and B, A and C, B and C, and a combination of A and B and C.
- any reference to an element herein using a designation such as “first, “ “second, “ and so forth does not generally limit the quantity or order of those elements. Rather, these designations can be used herein as a convenient means of distinguishing between two or more elements or instances of an element. Thus, a reference to first and second elements does not mean that only two elements can be employed, or that the first element must precede the second element in some manner.
- any one of the various illustrative logical blocks, units, processors, means, circuits, methods and functions described in connection with the aspects disclosed herein can be implemented by electronic hardware (e.g., a digital implementation, an analog implementation, or a combination of the two) , firmware, various forms of program or design code incorporating instructions (which can be referred to herein, for convenience, as "software” or a “software unit” ) , or any combination of these techniques.
- a processor, device, component, circuit, structure, machine, unit, etc. can be configured to perform one or more of the functions described herein.
- IC integrated circuit
- DSP digital signal processor
- ASIC application specific integrated circuit
- FPGA field programmable gate array
- the logical blocks, units, and circuits can further include antennas and/or transceivers to communicate with various components within the network or within the device.
- a general-purpose processor can be a microprocessor, but in the alternative, the processor can be any conventional processor, controller, or state machine.
- a processor can also be implemented as a combination of computing devices, e.g., a combination of a DSP and a microprocessor, a plurality of microprocessors, one or more microprocessors in conjunction with a DSP core, or any other suitable configuration to perform the functions described herein. If implemented in software, the functions can be stored as one or more instructions or code on a computer-readable medium. Thus, the steps of a method or algorithm disclosed herein can be implemented as software stored on a computer-readable medium.
- Computer-readable media includes both computer storage media and communication media including any medium that can be enabled to transfer a computer program or code from one place to another.
- a storage media can be any available media that can be accessed by a computer.
- such computer-readable media can include RAM, ROM, EEPROM, CD-ROM or other optical disk storage, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium that can be used to store desired program code in the form of instructions or data structures and that can be accessed by a computer.
- unit refers to software, firmware, hardware, and any combination of these elements for performing the associated functions described herein. Additionally, for purpose of discussion, the various units are described as discrete units; however, as would be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art, two or more units may be combined to form a single unit that performs the associated functions according to embodiments of the present disclosure.
- memory or other storage may be employed in embodiments of the present disclosure.
- memory or other storage may be employed in embodiments of the present disclosure.
- any suitable distribution of functionality between different functional units, processing logic elements or domains may be used without detracting from the present disclosure.
- functionality illustrated to be performed by separate processing logic elements, or controllers may be performed by the same processing logic element, or controller.
- references to specific functional units are only references to a suitable means for providing the described functionality, rather than indicative of a strict logical or physical structure or organization.
