    Abstract: Various embodiments disclosed herein provide for a compressed user equipment (UE) capability message that can indicate to a mobile network the various capabilities of the UE. In particular, the carrier aggregation and dual connectivity capabilities are compressed as disclosed herein. In traditional implementations, each carrier aggregation and dual connectivity combination and implementation that is supported is explicitly indicated in the message. As disclosed herein, rather than listing explicit combinations, the UE capability message can be compressed by instead listing boundary values of several different parameters which can be used by the network to derive the carrier aggregation and dual connectivity combinations. The UE capability message can also list the boundary values for LTE (Long Term Evolution), NR (New Radio, or 5G), and Dual Connectivity separately within the message to reduce ambiguity.

    Abstract: Facilitating fast return to stand alone advanced networks (e.g., 5G, 6G, and beyond) after voice fall back is provided herein. Operations of a method can comprise receiving, from a first network device and by a second network device, a connection request that comprises an indication of a fall back procedure. The fall back procedure can be an “RRC release and redirect” or an “IRAT Handover.” The method also can comprise facilitating control of the voice communication for the mobile device and triggering a release of the control of the mobile device from the second network device based on a determination that the voice communication has completed. The fast return procedure can be either a “RRC release and redirect’ or an “IRAT handover.” Further, the method can comprise redirecting the mobile device to a third network device selected based on a capability of the mobile device.

    Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, transmitting a first message to a first network node, wherein the first message identifies a total count of resources available to a processing system across a plurality of carriers, transmitting a second message to a second network node that causes the second network node to obtain the total count of resources from the first network node, connecting the processing system to the first network node to receive first services in accordance with a first portion of the total count of resources, and connecting the processing system to the second network node to receive second services in accordance with a second portion of the total count of resources. Other embodiments are disclosed.

    Abstract: Control parameters can be used to enable or disable new radios (NR) of mobile devices and preserve battery life. For example, the control parameters can comprise a scan timer and a sleep timer. A mobile device can decode a network message, turn on an NR, and enable the scan timer. If an NR cell is available, the mobile device can enter LTE-NR dual connectivity mode in response to the network message. Conversely, when the scan timer expires, the mobile device can turn off the NR radio, and enable the sleep timer to preserve the mobile device battery. When the sleep timer expires, the mobile device can turn on the NR radio and enable the scan timer.

    Abstract: A system for displaying a wireless service icon receives a message from a network device of a wireless network to which a mobile device is attempting to connect, wherein the message comprises layer indication data representative of a functionality of the network device of the wireless network and an index value associated with first frequency bands supported by the network device and based on a type of the mobile device, analyzing the layer indication data and the index value. The system can further comprise in response to determining a condition associated with the index value is satisfied based on a result of the analyzing, determining whether a frequency band allocated to the mobile device is included in the first frequency bands and in response to the frequency band allocated to the mobile device being determined to be included in the first frequency bands, generating first display data.
