Abstract:
A system may receive user device information that includes a location associated with the user device and an identifier of a base station associated with the location and receives load information associated with the base station. The system may determine, based on the user device information and the load information, whether congestion is predicted and perform traffic throttling in response to determining the congestion is predicted. A schedule for adjusting the traffic throttling is determined and the traffic throttling is adjusted based on the schedule.
Abstract:
A base station includes an antenna to receive a first frequency band associated with first signals carrying machine-to-machine (M2M) data, and a second frequency band associated with second signals carrying user equipment (UE) data; a radio frequency interface to connect to the antenna, and configured to receive the first signals and the second signals; at least one digital front end to generate, based on the first signals, first time-aligned symbols, generate, based on the second signals, second time-aligned symbols, store the first time-aligned symbols at a first portion of a buffer, and store the second time-aligned symbols at a second portion of the buffer; and a processor to convert, based on contents stored at the first portion of the buffer, the first time-aligned symbols into the M2M data, and convert, based on contents stored at the second portion of the buffer, the second time-aligned symbols into the UE data.
Abstract:
A server device may receive content that was transmitted using a broadcast technique; track a quantity of user devices that have entered a particular area after the content has been received by the server device; determine, based on the tracking, that the quantity of user devices meets or exceeds a threshold quantity; and redistributing, by the server device and based on the determining, the content to one or more of the user devices that have entered the particular area after the content has been received by the server device.
Abstract:
A system may receive, from a base station, information indicating that a network congestion level associated with the base station satisfies a threshold, the network congestion level being a measurement of traffic associated with a network, and the network including the base station. The system may determine, based on the network congestion level satisfying the threshold, traffic flow information for a plurality of traffic flows associated with the base station. The system may identify a congestion-causing traffic flow, of the plurality of traffic flows, based on the traffic flow information. The system may provide information identifying the congestion-causing traffic flow.

Abstract:
In a network containing a macro base station and wireless access points within the range of the macro base station, information from wireless access points are used to change the quantity of almost blank subframes delivered by the macro base station, adjust the cell range extension area of one or more of the wireless access points, or provide instructions to alter the number of wireless access points. The information is analyzed. The analysis allows determination of a capacity gain associated with using the wireless access points within an area associated with the macro base station and whether the capacity gain provides at least a threshold amount of gain permitting the macro base station and the wireless access points to provide service to mobile devices within the area.
Abstract:
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which an inter-operator mobility service is provided. The service may provide provisioning decisions and configurations that may include core devices that are shared between users of a first entity and users of a second entity, or are dedicated to the users of the second entity to support a network slice and/or access to an application service for end devices associated with the second entity. The service may manage access and use of radio frequencies associated with the first and second entities based on subscription information and location of the end devices associated with first and second entities. The service may further include enabling inter-network handovers associated with end devices associated with end devices associated with the second entity.
Abstract:
An edge device may obtain, via a base station, one or more respective requests from one or more user devices to access content. The edge device may determine a total number of the one or more user devices and may determine that the total number of the one or more user devices satisfies a threshold. The edge device may determine, based on the total number of the one or more user devices satisfying the threshold, a latency requirement associated with the content and may determine whether the edge device can satisfy the latency requirement. The edge device may selectively cause, based on determining whether the edge device can satisfy the latency requirement, the edge device or a different edge device to send the content to the one or more user devices via the base station.
Abstract:
Systems and methods provide a short data, low latency service using a Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) network. A network device receives, in a core network, an attach request from an end device and detect whether a packet size range for data transmissions from the end device is within a configured size threshold. The network device directs, when the packet size is within the configured size threshold, routing of the data transmissions via a control plane function of an edge network to a local instance of an application server in the edge network. The network device directs, when the packet size is over the configured size threshold, routing of the data transmissions via a user plane function of the edge network to a local instance of an application server in the edge network.
