Abstract: In a Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) system, high-power customer premises equipment (HP-CPE) transmits a registration request to a spectrum access system (SAS), which determines a CPE device type for the HP-CPE and transmits a positive registration response to the HP-CPE. The HP-CPE transmits a grant request to the SAS, which transmits a positive grant response to the HP-CPE. The HP-CPE transmits a heartbeat request to the SAS, which relies on the CPE device type to approve the heartbeat request without relying on a corresponding Coordinated Periodic Activity among SASs (CPAS) process, and transmits a positive heartbeat response to the HP-CPE. In one method, the SAS determines the CPE device type using a database that maps FCC model numbers to device types. In another method, the registration request contains a field with the CPE device type. Both methods enable immediate HP-CPE authorization without the delay of a CPAS process.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for registering and authenticating a client device with a wireless-enabled network. In one embodiment, the apparatus and methods provide an alternate wireless connectivity link to register an installed high-power fixed wireless apparatus (FWA) or Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) with a managed wireless network infrastructure, such as one utilizing “quasi-licensed” CBRS (Citizens Broadband Radio Service) wireless spectrum or another shared access approach. In one variant, the alternate wireless link comprises a mobile cellular channel established via an application program executing on a mobile device. In another variant, an Internet of Thing Network (IoT) is used for the alternate link. In one implementation, spectrum grants are communicated back the FWA/CPE via the alternate link to enable subsequent CBRS-band high-power operation.

Abstract: An LTE network extension (LNE) system includes an LTE access gateway (LAG) and a provisioned database. A plurality of LTE access radios in the LNE system broadcast the same shared PLMN ID (sPLMN ID). The sPLMN ID corresponds to a plurality of service provider core networks, each with a different PLMN. The provisioned database includes information identifying which networks are allowed to use the LNE system and includes service provider network address information. An LTE access radio, transmitting the sPLMN ID detects an attach request from a UE, and forwards the attach request to the LAG, which decides if access is to be allowed, based on a service provider home network PLMN included in an IMSI in the attach request and information in the provisioned database. If access is allowed, the LAG serves as a proxy between the LTE access radio and the UE's service provider home network.

Abstract: Various embodiments comprise systems, methods, architectures, mechanisms and apparatus for enabling dynamic configuration of CBSD devices with CBRS spectrum grants defined/sized using enhanced SAS channel assignment capabilities supporting low bandwidth channels/applications (e.g., IoT services) in the shared spectrum while minimizing spectrum wastage. Existing CBSD-SAS call flow message exchange and registration data specifications are modified in accordance with various embodiments to provide support for radio types having spectrum requirements less than the nominal minimum channel size.

Abstract: Methods and systems for providing an enhanced proximity services. The method includes monitoring, by a proximity controller provisioned in a preferred network, dual subscriber identification module (SIM) dual subscriber (DSDS) devices operating in the preferred network, detecting, by the proximity controller, a DSDS device operating in a non-preferred network, wherein the DSDS devices and the DSDS device are configured to switchably operate in one of the preferred network or the non-preferred network based on coverage, locating, by the proximity controller, from the monitored DSDS devices a DSDS device proximate to the DSDS device operating in the non-preferred network, and enabling, by the proximity controller, the proximate DSDS device and the DSDS device operating in the non-preferred network to establish a sidelink communication channel between the proximate DSDS device and the DSDS device operating in the non-preferred network for offloading data communications from the non-preferred network to the preferred network.

Abstract: A system, method and apparatus for registering a wireless station such as a CBRS transmitter establishes registration parameters including location and channel information for avoiding interference from other wireless stations in close proximity. A network address of the wireless station is employed to identify location information in GPS coordinates by referencing a subscriber database with billing or service address information. Registration proceeds with the mapped GPS address and a frequency or channel subject to little or no interference with nearby wireless station by ensuring sufficient geographic and bandwidth separation.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, one or more Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) service devices (CBSDs) may be migrated from their current Spectrum Access System (SAS) to a new SAS, where at least one existing PAL or GAA spectrum grant is transferred from the current SAS to the new SAS without waiting for a timer associated with the existing spectrum grant to expire. CBSDs may be migrated one at a time or multiple CBSDs of a single service provider may be migrated in a single process where the multiple CBSDs are identified by a shared organization ID associated with the service provider. In either case, a migrating CBSD can continue to use its previously existing spectrum grants after migrating to the new SAS without significant delay.

Abstract: According to one configuration, a system includes provisioning hardware and a wireless station that supports communications with one or more communication devices. The wireless station receives a first notification from the provisioning system. The first notification indicating that the wireless station is assigned to a first allocation management resource. The first allocation management resource operable to allocate wireless resources for use by the wireless station to support wireless communications. The wireless station communicates with the first allocation management resource to receive allocation information indicating the wireless resources allocated for use by the wireless station. In response to receiving a second notification that the wireless station has been reassigned to a second allocation management resource, the wireless station communicates with the second allocation management resource instead of the first allocation management resource to receive the allocation information.
