    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems to provide, to a wireless communication device (WCD), a mapping between a first unsupported message type and a first supported message type. One embodiment takes the form of a method that involves a base station transmitting in a coverage area, for receipt by a given WCD configured to send a first unsupported message type to the base station, a mapping that correlates the first unsupported message type with the first supported message type. As a result of transmitting the mapping, the base station receives, from the given WCD, a message of the first supported message type in the place of a message of the first unsupported message type.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for allocating frequencies based on group delay variation considerations include a base station that operates in a frequency range comprising a first set of frequency groups and a second set of frequency groups, where frequency groups of the first set are less susceptible to group delay variation based impairments than the frequency groups of the second set. In response to a requirement to transmit data between the base station and a particular UE, the base station determines whether the particular UE is receiving wireless service directly from the base station or via a relay associated with the base station, and when the particular UE is receiving wireless service via the relay, the base station allocates one or more frequency groups from the first set of frequency groups to use for transmitting data between the base station and the particular UE to satisfy the requirement.

    Abstract: Systems, computer-readable media, and methods for selecting channel bandwidths to a user equipment (UE) device for carrying out a communication session. Selection of the channel bandwidth can be based on a data-usage tendency of the UE device. The data-usage tendency can indicate a data-usage rate of the UE device or a set of user equipment devices similar to the UE device. The channel bandwidth can comprise a plurality of subcarriers. Two or more of the subcarriers can be adjacent to one another or be separated by one or more subcarriers of a channel bandwidth assigned or assignable to another UE device for another communication session. A processor that selects the channel bandwidth can further base its selection on a service plan associated with the UE device and load conditions of frequency bands of a radio access network.

    Abstract: A base station may be configured to emit a plurality of beams in a given coverage area, where each beam defines a different respective sub-coverage area of the given coverage area and serves wireless communication devices (WCDs) located in the respective sub-coverage area. While emitting these beams, the base station may detect that there is a threshold number of highly-mobile WCDs located in the given coverage area. In response, the base station may activate a global beam that serves WCDs located anywhere in the given coverage area. In turn, the base station may assign at least one highly-mobile WCD located in the given coverage area to the global beam.

    Abstract: System and methods for switching operating modes of a radio access node to increase data throughput for a user-equipment device are described. The radio access node can detect operating conditions to trigger switching from one operating mode to another. In a first operating mode, the radio access node can transmit non-bearer data, such as synchronization signals, to a UE device using a particular forward-link air interface resources. In response to detecting the defined condition(s), the radio access node can switch to a second operating mode in which the radio access node begins transmitting bearer data using the particular forward-link air interface resources used to transmit the non-bearer data while operating in the first operating mode. Upon detecting other operating condition(s), the radio access node can switch back to operating in the first operating mode. The radio access node can be configured as an eNodeB.

    Abstract: A base station dynamically controls whether or not to serve a WCD on an in-band carrier defined within occupied bandwidth of a host carrier, with the dynamic controlling being based on whether the base station is operating in a capacity-mode on the host carrier, such as whether the base station has beamforming enabled on the host carrier and/or the base station is serving one or more relay nodes on the host carrier. If the base station is operating in a capacity-mode on the host carrier, then the base station could responsively transition a WCD from being served on the in-band carrier to instead being served on a guard-band carrier defined within a guard-band of the host carrier, or to being served on another carrier that is not an in-band carrier defined in the occupied bandwidth of the host carrier.

    Abstract: During the operation of a radio access network (RAN), the RAN will determine a measure of capacity of a frequency channel based on a modulation quality (Rho) of the frequency channel and will intelligently manage use of the frequency channel based on the determined Rho. Through this process, the RAN may thereby attempt to serve each WCD with an appropriate level of service by reducing a maximum load level for the frequency channel. In response to a WCD attempting to register on a frequency channel, the RAN may determine if registering the WCD would cause a current load level to exceed the maximum load level of the frequency channel. If registering would cause a current load level of the frequency channel to exceed the maximum load level, the RAN may cause the WCD to register on a different frequency channel. If not, the RAN may allow the registration.
