Abstract:
A method and system and may receive an information request from a user device. An establishment list may be transmitted to the user device in response to the information request, wherein the establishment list includes at least one subscribing establishment. An establishment selection may be received and an establishment option associated with the establishment selection may then be transmitted to the user device. An option selection may then be received from the user device and an establishment record may be updated in response to the selected option, wherein the user device and the subscribing establishments have a pre-existing relationship within the establishment record.
Abstract:
A call session control function (CSCF) receives, from a first user device engaged in a call with a second user device, a first Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) signaling message piggybacked with first data related to a voice quality of an inbound direction of the call at the first user device. The CSCF receives, from a second user device engaged in the call with the first user device, a second SIP signaling message piggybacked with second data related to a voice quality of an inbound direction of the call at the second user device. The CSCF extracts the first data related to the voice quality from the first SIP signaling message, and extracts the second data related to the voice quality from the second SIP signaling message. A charging collection function (CCF) determines a bi-directional voice quality of the call based on the first data and the second data.
Abstract:
A device is configured to receive an authentication credential from a user device, and is configured to authenticate the user device based on the authentication credential. The device is configured to transmit, based on authenticating the user device, a first application for establishing a tunnel that permits the user device to access a second application using an Internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) network architecture. The device is configured to establish, based on the first application, a tunnel for transferring IMS traffic to or from the user device, and is configured to transfer the IMS traffic to or from the user device, using the tunnel, where transferring the IMS traffic permits the user device to access the second application.
Abstract:
A method for endpoint device service scaling may include identifying, at a repository device, an endpoint device that is attached to a network; and determining, at the repository device, whether the endpoint device is connected to an external display. The method may include determining, at the repository device, profile data associated with the external display in response to determining that the endpoint device is connected to an external display; and identifying, at the repository device, a connection that provides network access to the endpoint device. The method may further include specifying a service based on at least one of the profile data or the identified connection.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for network slice selection during an initial connection. A wireless station receives, from a core network device, network slice data for each network slice available via the wireless station, wherein the network slice data includes a slice identifier and corresponding slice characteristics for each network slice. The wireless station receives, from a user equipment (UE) device, a registration request message that indicates a network slice characteristic required by an application being executed on UE device. The wireless station selects, based on the network slice data from the core network device and the network slice characteristic from the UE device, one of the slice identifiers for servicing the UE device.
Abstract:
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a mobile edge computing handover service is provided. The mobile edge computing handover service provides for the prospective provisioning of a target mobile edge computing network based on mobility information pertaining to an end device. The mobile edge computing handover service includes managing the provisioning of the application or service, content, and context information in relation to a source mobile edge computing network and the target mobile edge computing network.
Abstract:
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a mobile edge computing service is provided. The mobile edge computing service provides for the hosting of a function of an application in a mobile edge computer network, and another function of the application to be hosted in a network external from the mobile edge computer network. The mobile edge computing service includes an on-boarding service that obtains subscription information and policies. The mobile edge computing service also includes network resource availability and security measure verifications.
Abstract:
A system may be configured to identify that a user device is connected to a first radio access network (“RAN”), via a first technology; and to identify that the user device is capable of accessing a second RAN, via a second technology. The system may further be configured to instruct the user device to concurrently connect to the second RAN and the first RAN, send or receive a first type of traffic via the first RAN, and send or receive a second type of traffic via the second RAN.
Abstract:
Systems and method are provided to reduce redundant data transfers for service profiles within a wireless core network. A network device in the core network receives, from a mobility management entity (MME), a user profile request. The user profile request includes a user identifier for an end device. The network device determines that a user profile corresponding to the user identifier includes a shared service profile and determines, when the user profile includes a shared service profile, whether the MME has stored the shared service profile. When the MME has not stored the shared service profile, the network device sends, to the MME, the shared service profile and a shared profile identifier for the shared service profile. The network device sends, to the MME, a response to the user profile request, the response including the user identifier and the shared profile identifier for the shared service profile.
Abstract:
A computer device may include a memory configured to store instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to receive a service request from a user equipment (UE) device via a wireless access network; identify a Short Message Service Inter-Working Function (SMS-IWF) device associated with the UE device; and determine that the identified SMS-IWF device is associated with a link failure. The processor may further be configured to instruct the UE device to detach based on determining that the identified SMS-IWF device is associated with a link failure; receive a re-attach request from the UE device, in response to instructing the UE device to detach; and assign a functioning SMS-IWF device to the UE device, in response to receiving the re-attach request.
