Patent ID: 11856068

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of things (IoT). A method, by a network data analytics function (NWDAF), for a user equipment (UE) data collection is provided. The method includes the steps of receiving, from a service consumer network function (NF), a request for requiring the UE data collection via an application function (AF) for analytics; discovering the AF that provides the UE data collection based on AF profiles of the AF; transmitting, to the AF, a request for a subscription to the AF for the UE data collection for the analytics including at least one event identifier (ID), at least one event filter related to the at least one event ID, and a target of event reporting; and receiving, from the AF, a notification on a processed data collected according to the subscription.
