Flexible parameter cache for machine type connections
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for improving parameter cache in a communication system, the system enabling Machine Type Communication, MTC, connection between at least one MTC device (10) and at least one MTC server (11), via a Packet Data Network, PDN, connection. The communication system for at least a first MTC connection performing the steps of: a Gateway, GW (17), in the communication system establishing (23) a new Gx session with a Policy Control Node, PCN (15), the PCN (15) performing (24) session binding with the GW (17), The method is particularly characterized in that the communication system further performs the step of: when the first MTC connection has been inactive for a certain time period, the GW (17) as part of a cache upload procedure sends (25) a first set of PDN connection parameters to the PCN (15) and releases memory resources associated with this first set of PDN connection parameters.
