Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a Radio Access Network (RAN) node for telecommunication networks, enabling dynamic interaction with a Network Repository Function (NRF). The RAN node may register its capabilities and configurations through a detailed RAN profile, including parameters such as supported services, protocols, frequencies, location, and energy efficiency. It may query the NRF to discover and select other RAN or Core Network (CN) nodes based on these parameters, facilitating optimized mobility, handovers, and resource management. The RAN node may support subscription-based notifications for updates about relevant nodes, allowing proactive configuration and reduced handover delays. It may establish secure communication with discovered nodes using endpoint and protocol information obtained from the NRF. The present disclosure may enhance scalability, flexibility, and efficiency by reducing reliance on traditional CN components for endpoint resolution. It may support modern network functionalities like Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) and advanced service-based architectures, ensuring compatibility with future telecommunication systems.
