Method of executing a service for a service consumer, as well as a corresponding network node and a computer program product

A method of executing a service for a service consumer, said service consumer being registered in a home telecommunication network and currently residing in a visited telecommunication network, said method comprising the steps of retrieving a list of available services within the home telecommunication network that said service consumer is allowed to access, wherein said SDVN function and said home NRF both reside in said home telecommunication network, receiving a service operation message requesting an operation execution within a particular service for said service consumer in said visited telecommunication network, determining that said home network is able to provide for said requested particular service based on said retrieved list of available service, and selecting one or more service instances for executing said operation within said particular service for said service consumer.

Automated roaming service level agreements between network operators via security edge protection proxies in a communication system environment

Techniques for automated management of a service level agreement between a first communication network and a second communication network are provided. For example, one of the communication networks is a visited network while the other is a home network whereby the service level agreement is a roaming agreement. In one example, a message is received at a first communication network from a second communication network, wherein at least a portion of the message relates to the service level agreement between the first communication network and the second communication network. An automated verification of information in the message is performed at the first communication network to determine compliance with the service level agreement. The message receiving step is performed by a security edge protection proxy function of the first communication network and the automated verification performing step is performed by a service level agreement management function of the first communication network.

Rich user experience for service upgrades

A wireless telecommunications device user's home telecommunications service provider determines that the user is traveling or about to travel to a foreign jurisdiction where telecommunications services are provided by a different telecommunications service provider, and proactively provides the user with options for selecting or upgrading telecommunications service and receives a selection from the user before the user leaves the home jurisdiction or ceases contact with the home service provider. When the user arrives in the foreign jurisdiction, upgraded service per the user's selection is established or soon ready to become active. The home service provider can determine the user's travel based on one or more of the user's electronic communications, calendar entries, current location, trending geographical movement, or patterns of past travels.

Transportation system used by individuals having a visual impairment utilizing 5G communications

A computer-implemented system and method for a transportation system comprises, using a processor associated with a service, initializing information collectors and response monitors by loading configurations, user settings, and data structures to capture device information from a plurality of devices that each run a virtual agent (VA). Fifth generation (5G) communication links are established between 5G server orchestration service instances (SOSIs) and respective VAs on the devices. Captured live status information by the SOSIs is received from various devices. A 5G dynamic ad-hoc network (DAHN) connects a user device of a user having visual impairment and a vehicle stop device, the DAHN creation being triggered by the user device entering a stop device boundary. An SOSI receives user-vehicle stop information after the connecting to the DAHN. Control information is transmitted to the vehicle device VA related to the user when the user device is located within the stop boundary.

First node, second node, third node and methods performed thereby for handling roaming information

A method, performed by a first node is described, the method being for handling roaming information. The first node operates in a first communications network. The first node determines a set of network resources predicted to be required by a group of subscribers while roaming in a second communications network. The first node then initiates providing an indication of the determined set of resources to a second node in the second communications network. The second node receives the indication and determines whether or not an allocation of the set of resources meets a criterion. The second node then initiates performing an operation based on the determination. A third node determines data regarding a roaming behavior of the group of subscribers and provides information based on the determined data, to the first node.
