    Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, obtaining a preliminary transmission received from a first wireless access terminal of a wireless network, at a mobile terminal, wherein the obtaining of the preliminary transmission occurs before a successful completion of an attachment process between the mobile terminal and the first wireless access terminal, and wherein access to a network resource by the mobile terminal via the wireless network requires a successful completion of the attachment process. A physical relationship is determined between the mobile terminal and the first wireless access terminal according to the preliminary transmission, resulting in a determined physical relationship. The determined physical relationship is compared to a predetermined threshold value to obtain a comparison result and successful completion of the attachment process is prevented based on the comparison result indicating a suspect condition. Other embodiments are disclosed.

    Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, deploying UAVs to a geographic area based on a need to offload traffic from a terrestrial base station, instructing the base station to enforce a UE served by the base station to determine a DoA of a received pilot signal emitted from each neighboring cell and to provide determined DoAs in a measurement report to the base station, obtaining the report from the base station, wherein the report includes DoA information for a plurality of neighboring cells, analyzing the DoA information to determine, for each neighboring cell of the plurality of neighboring cells, a probability of that neighboring cell being an aerial cell, resulting in determined probabilities, and controlling an ability of the base station to perform a handover of the UE to one or more of the plurality of neighboring cells based on the probabilities. Other embodiments are disclosed.

    Abstract: An architecture to dynamically create fifth generation technology based geofences around defined areas to ensure the safe operation of user equipment (UE). A method can comprise determining that first serving cell equipment is servicing an aerial user equipment determining that the first serving cell equipment has enabled beamforming, determining that a first beam of a group of beams is being used to service the aerial user equipment, determining a second beam of the group of beams that the first serving cell equipment will use to service to the aerial user equipment, determining that a handover event from the first serving cell equipment to a second serving cell equipment will occur, and causing the first serving cell equipment to adjust an emitted power level associated with the second beam.

    Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, obtaining first data associated with a plurality of user equipment devices that are communicating with at least one access point of a wireless terrestrial network, wherein the first data indicates a respective location of each user equipment device, a respective in-use wireless frequency that each user equipment device is using for communicating with the at least one access point, and one or more respective potential wireless frequencies that each user equipment device is capable of using for wireless communication; obtaining second data associated with a satellite access point of a wireless non-terrestrial network, wherein the second data indicates a current location of the satellite access point, a future predicted location of the satellite access point, and one or more wireless satellite frequencies that will be available for use by the satellite access point when at the future predicted location in order to communicate with one or more of the user equipment devices; and selecting, based upon the first and second data, at least one user equipment device of the plurality of user equipment devices to offload its data communication to the satellite access point. Other embodiments are disclosed.
