Abstract:
A call session control function (“CSCF”), of an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (“IMS”) core network, may receive a set of authentication credentials that do not include IMS authentication credentials; and may use the set of authentication credentials, which do not include IMS authentication credentials, to authenticate a user device for the IMS core network.
Abstract:
A reporting server receives reports on content items being accessed by a plurality of UE devices through a first multicast/broadcast single frequency network (MBSFN). The reporting server determines, for each content item being accessed, which of the UE devices is accessing the content item. The UE devices are then grouped by the accessed content items such that at least one content item is accessed by a first group of UE devices and not accessed by a second group of UE devices. The reporting server then sends data representing the first and second groups to a broadcast video provisioning system (BVPS) with a recommendation to split the MBSFN into second and third MBSFNs. In another implementation, the reporting server receives reports from fourth and fifth MBSFNs and recommends joining the fourth and fifth MBSFNs to form a sixth MBSFN if broadcast bandwidth requirements are met.
Abstract:
A first network device may receive an instruction to transmit a data flow and select a particular second network device based on a selection rule. The particular second network device providing may provide to an external network. The first network device may identify a path to the particular second network device. The particular path may include one or more third network devices that are different from the first network device. The first network device may provide the data flow to the particular second network device via the path to cause the particular second network device to transmit the data flow towards a destination device.
Abstract:
A network device may receive, from a user device, a connection request. The connection request may correspond to a request to access a first network. The network device may determine a network congestion level associated with the first network. The network device may determine priority class information associated with the user device. The network device may selectively provide access to the first network based on the network congestion level and the priority class information. The network device may selectively provide access to a second network when access to the first network is denied.
Abstract:
A method and system and may receive an information request from a user device. An establishment list may be transmitted to the user device in response to the information request, wherein the establishment list includes at least one subscribing establishment. An establishment selection may be received and an establishment option associated with the establishment selection may then be transmitted to the user device. An option selection may then be received from the user device and an establishment record may be updated in response to the selected option, wherein the user device and the subscribing establishments have a pre-existing relationship within the establishment record.
Abstract:
A mobile device may obtain wireless network connectivity from a local telecommunications provider by replacing a card in a mobile device associated with the user. In one implementation, a method may include receiving identification information relating to a mobile device; determining, based on the identification information, that the mobile device is compatible with a wireless network; transmitting, based on the determination that the mobile device is compatible with the wireless network, a Voice over Long Term Evolution (VoLTE) client application to the mobile device, the VoLTE client application providing functionality, for the mobile device, relating to usage of VoLTE services in the wireless network; and communicating, with the mobile device and the VoLTE client application, to provide one or more VoLTE services to the mobile device.
Abstract:
A method, a network device, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are described in relation to an IAB backhaul sharing among co-located radio sites service. The IAB backhaul sharing among co-located radio sites service may include a traffic balancing service that performs access link bandwidth management and allocation to integrated access and backhaul (IAB) nodes based on bandwidth assessment of IAB backhaul links and bandwidth demands of IAB nodes. The service may further include a scheduling service that includes localized scheduling and load balancing at each IAB node of user traffic based on an allocated bandwidth provided by the traffic balancing service. The scheduling service may include an integrated schedule between co-located radio sites associated with the IAB node.
Abstract:
A device may receive channel data associated with a channel provided between a network and a user device, and may calculate, based on the channel data, key performance indicator data that includes a plurality of key performance indicators for the channel. The device may multiply the plurality of key performance indicators by factors to generate factored key performance indicator data that includes a plurality of factored key performance indicators. The device may apply weights to the plurality of factored key performance indicators of the factored key performance indicator data to generate factored weighted key performance indicator data that includes a plurality of factored weighted key performance indicators. The device may calculate a quality indicator for the channel based on the factored weighted key performance indicator data, and may perform one or more actions based on the quality indicator for the channel.
Abstract:
A method may include transmitting multiple antenna beams to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and determining a location of the UAV. The method may also include identifying a network slice to service the UAV, assigning the identified network slice to the UAV and performing antenna beam management for the UAV while the UAV is in flight.
Abstract:
A device of a network may receive a session configuration message for an application session associated with an application of a user equipment (UE) that provided the session configuration message. The device of a network may identify, from the session configuration message, a quality of service (QoS) profile for the application session. The device of a network may determine that the application is authorized to use a network slice of the network that satisfies one or more QoS thresholds of the QoS profile. The device of a network may identify resources of the network that can be configured to satisfy the one or more QoS thresholds. The device of a network may instantiate the resources for communication of application data of the application session. Instantiating the resources may enable the UE to communicate the application data via the network slice using the resources.
