MUMBAI, India, April 20 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411074367 A) filed by Rakuten Symphony, Inc., Tokyo, on Oct. 1, 2024, for 'system and method for slice aware mobility decisions.'

Inventor(s) include Chandrashekar, Subramanya; and Chhawchharia, Manjari.

The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Disclosed herein is an apparatus. The apparatus is configured to receive, from at least one of a gNodeB-Distributed Unit (gNB-DU) of a gNB or a gNodeB-Centralized Unit (gNB-CU) of one or more neighbouring gNBs, measured throughput absorption capacity information corresponding to each of a plurality of slices within each of a plurality of cells of the gNB or the one or more neighbouring gNBs in a periodic manner. The apparatus is configured to receive, from the at least one of the gNB-DU of the gNB or the gNB-CU of the neighbouring gNBs, predicted throughput absorption capacity information corresponding to each of the plurality of slices within each of the plurality of cells in the periodic manner. The apparatus is configured to determine whether to prepare one or more candidate cells for implementing one or more mobility solution mechanisms based on the received measured and predicted throughput absorption capacity information."
