Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for automated recovery to re-provision a subscriber of a communication network are provided. A communication session establishment request for a user equipment of a subscriber to utilize a communication network may be received. Subscriber location information, session management subscription data, and policy data associated with the subscriber may be retrieved. A subscriber not found response may be received from a charging component as a response to a charging subscriber request for the charging component to track network and service utilization by the user equipment due to a prior failure to register the subscriber with the charging component. Accordingly, an automated self-healing action may be performed to re-provision the subscriber with the charging component for registering the subscriber for network and service utilization tracking by the charging component

Abstract: A real-time network consumption tracking service is provided. A charging function (CHF) device receives transaction records of network consumption by user equipment (UE) devices in a wireless network and generates individual event messages based on each of the transaction records. Each of the individual event messages includes a detailed record based on one of the transaction records. The CHF device associates each of the individual event messages with a message bus topic, formats each of the individual event messages for publication on the message bus, and publishes each of the formatted individual event messages to the message bus. The message bus is accessible to external systems that generate dynamic network consumption data sets based on the formatted individual event messages.

Abstract: A network device may provide, to a content server device, an upload policy for uploading data, and may receive a notification indicating that the user device is attached to a network associated with a network identifier. The network device may receive a request identifying data to be uploaded by a user device to the content server device, and may determine a time window, a data size, and the network identifier associated with the upload policy and the network. The network device may determine whether the request complies with the time window, the data size, and the network identifier, and may determine whether a quantity of tokens associated with the network identifier is zero. The network device may provide, to the user device, a response indicating approval of the data to be uploaded, and may receive an indication that uploading the data is complete.

Abstract: A method is provided for performing RAN-usage-based tracking in a wireless core network. The method includes obtaining a plan code for a communication device connecting to a radio access network (RAN); associating, based on the plan code, the communication device with a RAN-usage-based plan; and reporting, after the associating, a tracking instance of RAN usage by the communication device.

Abstract: A system described herein may track usage, on a per-User Equipment (“UE”) basis, in systems that provide for simultaneous connectivity to a given UE via multiple base stations. A cycle cutoff time may be determined, a master base station (to which the UE is connected) may be notified of the cycle cutoff time, and the master base station may notify one or more secondary base stations (to which the UE is connected) of the cycle cutoff time. The master base station and/or the one or more secondary base stations may track usage, of the UE, until the cycle cutoff time, and may report the usage such that the usage via each of the base stations may be able to be determined.

Abstract: Systems and methods allow a mobile carrier to inform a content provider of data flow restrictions associated with a subscriber's account so that the carrier and the content provider can cooperate to limit data flows without resorting to the inefficiencies of throttling by the carrier. A network device for the carrier network sends, to a third-party content platform, a client message including a first dedicated subscription parameter extension. The first extension indicates one or more subscription parameters for a data flow between user equipment and the third-party content platform. The network device receives, from the third-party content platform, a server message including a second dedicated subscription parameter extension. The second extension confirms the third-party content platform will abide by the subscription parameters. The network device generates, based on the subscription parameters, a policy enforcement rule for the data flow that relies on cooperation of the third-party content platform.

Abstract: A system described herein may provide an interface between a Session Management Function (“SMF”) and a charging system in a wireless telecommunications system. The charging system may generate triggers which cause the SMF to monitor traffic associated with user equipment (“UE”) and alert the charging system when certain trigger conditions have been satisfied. The triggers may be modified during a communication session between the UE and the wireless telecommunications system. The triggers may be configured on a per-subscriber or a per-price plan level basis. The SMF may also cache a number of satisfied trigger conditions before notifying the charging system, which may result in an efficient use of networking and/or processing resources. The unification of “offline” and “online” charging events, by virtue of the interface, may also result in an efficient use of networking and/or processing resources.

Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which destination device identifiers associated with network devices are subject to a validation process before an end device attempts to establish a communication session with a network device. Based on an outcome of the validation process, a data flow subsequently established by the end device may be subject to a rule provided under a data usage plan subscribed to by the end device or another rule.
