摘要:
Methods, devices, and storage mediums for receiving, by an ingress network-to-network interface device, a signaling message to establish a communication session; adding an identifier that identifies the ingress network-to-network interface device; transmitting the signaling message that includes the identifier to another device of a network with which the ingress network-to-network interface device belongs; selecting an egress network-to-network interface device based on the identifier and a minimum path criterion between the ingress network-to-network interface device and the egress network-to-network interface device; and transmitting the signaling message to the egress network-to-network interface device.

A network controller may receive a communication session request from a user device via a network gateway. The communication session request may include a request to establish a communication session between two or more devices. The network controller may also determine that a communication session corresponding to the communication session request requires a network boarder controller, access a data structure that associates network gateways with network border controllers according to distance, and use the data structure to identify a network border controller that is located nearest to the network gateway. The network controller may establish a communication session comprising a data transport path between the network gateway and the network border controller, of a plurality of network border controllers, nearest to the network gateway.

A method may include receiving a request from an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem, where the request relates to an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem service associated with user equipment. The method may further include obtaining location or time zone information associated with the user equipment from an access network; providing the obtained location or time zone information to the Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem; and providing the obtained location or time zone information to an on-line or off-line charging system.

Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications, for various telemetry applications, such as meter reading, alarm applications or the like, utilize data communication service via a public mobile/wireless communication network, such as the short message service (SMS). However, such M2M communications may involve a large number of clients. To avoid the need to assign a telephone number, such as a mobile directory number (MDN) or the like, to each of the many remote M2M clients, routing through the network is based on another type of MSID (Mobile Station Identifier), such as the MIN (Mobile Identifier Number) or the IMSI (International Mobile Station Identifier) of the client. SMS messages transmissions originating at a client use a short code for the M2M application address, and SMS messages intended to terminate at a client use the MIN or IMSI as the routing address for the M2M device.
摘要:
A method may include receiving, at an application server, a session initiation protocol (SIP) message including a public user identifier (ID) associated a user. The public user ID corresponds to a plurality of user devices. The method also includes determining an applicable order of alerting at least one of the plurality of user devices. The method further includes identifying at least one available user device associated with the user, based on a terminal identifier (ID) associated with each at least one available user device. The method includes selecting a user device from the at least one available user device based on the applicable order of alerting. A SIP invite message, including a terminal ID for the selected user device, is generated. The method includes sending the SIP invite message to the selected user device based on the applicable order of alerting, and receiving a response to the SIP invite message.
摘要:
A calling device may obtain a first calling security parameter by registering with a network and obtain a second calling security parameter in response to causing an application authentication architecture of the network to verify that that the calling device is authorized to access a network service corresponding to a communication application stored by the calling device. The calling device may communicate the first and second calling security parameters to a called device and receive first and second called security parameters from the called device in response to communicating the first and second calling security parameters. The calling device may generate a security key based on the first calling security parameter, the second calling security parameter, first called security parameter, and the second called security parameter, and use the security key to encrypt or decrypt communication between the calling device and the called device.
摘要:
Exemplary inter-network profile repository interworking systems and methods are disclosed. An exemplary system includes an interface facility that interfaces with a home subscriber server (“HSS”) of a long term evolution (“LTE”) communications network and a home location register (“HLR”) of an alternate communications network, the HSS and the HLR maintaining separate profiles associated with a user device configured to access the LTE communications network and the alternate communications network. The exemplary system further includes a synchronization facility communicatively coupled to the interface facility and that synchronizes profile data associated with the user device across the separate profiles maintained by the HSS and the HLR. Corresponding systems and methods are also disclosed.

A method may include receiving a telephone number mapping query associated with a call from a calling party to a called party. The method may also include identifying, based on the query, first routing information that identifies a call session control component to process the call, and second routing information that identifies a border control component. The method may further include forwarding the first routing information to the querying device, and forwarding the second routing information to the querying device when the query originated from outside a network servicing the called party.
摘要:
A system includes a first device, in a first network; a second device, in a second network; and a policy rules and charging function (PCRF) database that associates Internet Protocol (IP) addresses assigned to user equipment (UE) devices with PCRF devices; where the first device is to identify a plurality of policy rules and charging function (PCRF) devices in the first network, select a PCRF device from the plurality of PCRF devices based on a selection rule, and provide information about the selected PCRF device to the second device; and where the second device is to receive a request to set up a communication session associated with a UE device; determine an IP address associated with the UE device; identify a PCRF device, based on the determined IP address, by accessing the PCRF database, and send session information associated with the communication session to the identified PCRF device.
