Abstract: A device receives instructions to update a field that defines a coverage area within a network. The device updates, based on receiving the instructions, the field to include a set of identifiers that are associated with a group of base stations within the coverage area. The device determines that a user equipment (UE), that is connected to the network, qualifies for the expanded data usage permissions based on account information associated with the UE including a particular identifier that allows the UE to utilize the expanded data usage permissions. The device provides, to another device, a request for data usage information that reflects the expanded data usage permissions. The device causes the data usage information to be applied to the UE.

Abstract: A network device receives, from a base station included in a network, location information associated with a user equipment included in the network. The network device determines, based on the location information, a cell type associated with a cell that is associated with the base station. The network device transmits, based on determining the cell type, a notification to a second network device included in the network, where the second network device, based on receiving the notification, determines a policy rule associated with the cell type, and where the second network device transmits the policy rule.

Abstract: A device obtains and stores presence reporting area (PRA) data, including an area identifier, an event start time, and an event end time. The device receives, at a first point in time, an indication that a user device is present in an area identified by the area identifier. The device determines whether the first point in time is at or between the event start time and the event end time, and selectively reports a presence of the user device in the area based on a result of determining whether the first point in time is at or between the event start time and the event end time.

Abstract: A method is provided for enforcing quality of service parameters. A gateway receives a request for data usage from a mobile device. The gateway sends, to a controller, inquiry for allowed bit rate. Upon receiving a first bit rate value, the gateway sends, to a charging system, request for quota. In response to receiving the quota, the gateway provides data to the mobile device based on the first bit rate value. The gateway provides data to the mobile device until the quota is exhausted. Once a data usage threshold is reached, the gateway receives, from the controller, a second bit rate value. In response to receiving the second bit rate value, the gateway provides data to the mobile device based on the second bit rate value, until an activation-time is reached. When the activation-time is reached, the gateway resets the allowed bit rate to the first bit rate value.

Abstract: A system described herein may provide a mechanism for accurately tracking data usage across multiple User Plane Function (“UPF”) devices in a telecommunications network. For example, different types of traffic may be handled by UPFs (e.g., may be dropped or forwarded), and the UPFs may be able to report the dropping of specific types of traffic, without needing to perform deep packet inspection (“DPI”). Header information may be passed from an upstream UPF to a downstream UPF with the traffic, where the header information indicates rules and/or policies that were applied by the upstream UPF. The downstream UPF may identify the rules and/or policies from the upstream UPF, and may use this information when reporting usage to a Session Management Function (“SMF”).

Abstract: A method is provided for performing RAN-usage-based tracking in a wireless core network. The method includes receiving a connection authorization request from a radio access network (RAN); obtaining a plan code for a communication device associated with the connection authorization request; associating, based on the plan code, the communication device with a RAN-usage-based plan; and sending, in response to the associating, tracking instances of RAN usage by the communication device to a usage-tracking server device.

Abstract: A network device enables account-level data speed enforcement over a wireless core network. The network device obtains an account identifier for a user device requesting a session, wherein the account identifier applies to multiple user devices. The network device stores the account identifier associated with a user device identifier for the user device and an access point name (APN) identifier for the session. The network device associates the account identifier with an account aggregate maximum bit rate (AMBR) value and stores, in a memory, an entry including the account identifier, the user device identifier, and the APN identifier. The network device calculates, a per-APN AMBR value for the session, wherein the per-APN AMBR value includes a portion of the account AMBR value, and sends, to a packet data network (PDN) gateway (PGW) device, the per-APN AMBR value for the session requested by the user device.

Abstract: Subscription status notification techniques are provided. A request is received by at least one server from a user equipment (UE) to attach to a wireless packet data communication network. The server determines whether the UE is associated with an enterprise identified by a service provider of the network as a sponsor of a data service through the network, based on an account of the UE stored on the server. Upon determining that the UE is associated with the enterprise, a notification message is sent from the server to the UE, through an information element field within an existing message in a bearer channel of the network. The UE is configured to control access to the network responsive to the subscription status in the notification message. The UE permits access to a sponsored data service associated with the enterprise sponsor regardless of the UE's ability to access non-enterprise associated data services.
Abstract translation: 提供订阅状态通知技术。 来自用户设备（UE）的至少一个服务器接收到请求以附加到无线分组数据通信网络。 服务器基于存储在服务器上的UE的帐户来确定UE是否与由网络的服务提供商识别的企业通过网络与数据服务的赞助商相关联。 在确定UE与企业相关联时，通过网络的承载信道中的现有消息内的信息元素字段将通知消息从服务器发送到UE。 UE被配置为响应于通知消息中的订阅状态来控制对网络的访问。 UE允许访问与企业赞助商相关联的赞助数据服务，而不管UE是否访问非企业关联数据服务的能力。

Abstract: A Unified Data Repository (UDR) may be included in a first network with a first Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) identifier (ID). The UDR may include a resource that comprises data at a child node. The resource may have a name corresponding to a second PLMN ID. The UDR may include one or more processors configured to: receive a call, from a network function located in a second network with the second PLMN ID, to access the data; and send a response to the call.
