Abstract
Methods and apparatus for biometric data maintenance, access and distribution across two or more experiential and/or network domains. In one embodiment, a 5G NR-based network architecture is provided which allows ultra-low latency and effectively user-imperceptible biometric data use for e.g., authentication and maintenance of user state across multiple domains via multiple constituent user devices (e.g., UEs). The network architecture includes both (i) a distributed biometric database (BDB) model wherein relevant biometric data for individuals/UEs is intelligently cached in various portions of the distributed database, and (ii) centralized and local BAEs (biometric analytics entities) which manage the aforementioned intelligent caching, as well as network configuration using one or both of 5G NR network 'slicing' and CU/DU split options to optimize end-user biometric-related applications such as those providing identification/authentication, AR functions, VR functions or yet others.
