Machine type communication monitoring framework for 3GPP systems
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method performed by a node in a third generation partnership project (3GPP) network, the method comprising:
- receiving machine-type communication (MTC) monitoring event data conveyed by an MTC interworking function (MTC-IWF) for a services capability server (SCS) and an application server (AS), the monitoring event data including information to configure the node for a monitoring event and to specify an action to be taken by the node in response to the monitoring event;
configuring the node for reporting the monitoring event; and
generating a report of the monitoring event for the SCS.

Abstract
A 3GPP monitoring architecture framework provides monitoring event configuration, detection, and reporting for machine-type and other mobile data applications using a machine type communication interworking function (MTC-IWF) that communicates monitoring event configuration, detection, and reporting messages through existing interfaces, such as Tsp, T4, and T5 interfaces.

7. A non-transitory computer-readable media having instructions that, when executed by a processor, causes a machine-type communication interworking function (MTC-IWF) in third-generation partnership project (3GPP) network system to:
-
receive from a services capability server (SCS) a diameter-protocol-based message including attribute value pairs (AVPs) defining monitoring event data including a request to establish, activate, deactivate, or trigger report delivery of a monitoring event on a 3GPP destination node; send to a home subscriber service (HSS) or home location register (HLR) over an S6m interface, a subscriber-information-request message requesting authorization for configuring the monitoring event on a 3GPP network element corresponding to the 3GPP destination node; receive from the HSS/HLR a subscriber-information-answer message authorizing the MTC-IWF to configure the monitoring event on the 3GPP network element corresponding to the 3GPP destination node; and determine, based on the monitoring event data, the 3GPP network element that corresponds to the 3GPP destination node. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)
