Patent ID: 10085229

Abstract:
The present disclosure discloses a method and system for triggering a Machine Type Communication MTC device. The method includes that: an MTC server sends a Bootstrapping Server Function entity BSF a request message including information on a GBA-PUSH Information GPI request and information on a triggering request; the BSF generates GPI and adds parametric information of a triggering instruction in the GPI according to the information on the triggering request through a GPI request processing flow, and sends the GPI including the parametric information of the triggering instruction to the MTC server; the MTC server sends the GPI including the parametric information of the triggering instruction to an MTC device to be triggered; and the MTC device is triggered according to the parametric information of the triggering instruction in the received GPI. With the present disclosure, secure triggering of an MTC device is implemented, and it is ensured that a secure connection can be established between the MTC device and an MTC server.
