Nvidia patents 5G system that shares network performance data

Nvidia describes a method using software commands to let different parts of a 5G network share performance data. Specifically, it allows devices in the main network core to request and receive measurement data from devices in the transport network.

Why it mattersThis could help network operators fine-tune 5G connections by allowing different network sections to coordinate based on real-time performance metrics.

In the filing’s own words

Apparatuses, systems, and techniques including APIs, subscription services, and controllers to enable one or more fifth generation new radio (5G-NR) networks to share information. For example, a processor comprising one or more circuits can perform an API or subscription service to cause a device in a radio access network (RAN) to share its analytic data with a device in a transport network, and said device in said transport network can use said analytic data to adjust its network settings to improve performance.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. One or more processors, comprising: circuitry to, in response to an application programming interface (API) call: indicate one or more devices, within one or more fifth generation new radio (5G-NR) core networks, with which one or more devices, within one or more 5G transport networks, are to share analytic information including one or more performance measurements of the one or more 5G transport networks; and cause the analytic information to be shared from the one or more devices within the one or more 5G transport networks to the indicated one or more devices within the one or more 5G-NR core networks.
