Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for dynamically disabling beamforming functionality of one or more frequency bands. For example, a frequency band may have beamforming enabled. One or more user devices may be connected to the frequency band having beamforming enabled for access to a wireless telecommunications network. User devices connected with the frequency band may be at various locations of a network cell of the wireless telecommunications network (e.g., a cell center, middle cell, cell edge). Fading information may be received by one or more of the user devices connected with the frequency band. One or more fading channel measurements of the first frequency band may be above a threshold. In some embodiments, a fading channel measurement of the first frequency band is higher than another available frequency band having beamforming enabled. As such, beamforming of the first frequency band can be dynamically disabled.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for dynamically adjusting a 4G LTE reference signal power level to match a 5G New Radio (NR) coverage footprint to avoid voice over 4G fallback failures for 5G subscribers. Initially, a subscriber making a voice call while in NR coverage may be directed to fall back to LTE in a process known as voice over evolved packet system fallback (VoEPSFB). If the LTE signal strength is worse due to non-optimal settings of the LTE reference signal, the subscriber experiences call setup failure. After the call setup failure, the UE transitions back to the gNodeB. Since the gNodeB knows the UE attempted to fall back to LTE (as well as how soon the UE transitioned back to the gNodeB), a notification is triggered that instructs the LTE base station to increase its reference signal power level.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for performing channel estimation in a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) based cellular radio technology (e.g., 4G, 5G). Initially, the reference transmission receive power (RSRP) is reported for each antenna element, rather than as a single RSRP. This enables the base station to understand the channel condition for each MIMO transmission/reception. Using that understanding, the base station can determine the radio-frequency (RF) power level per antenna port to provide more enhanced transmission towards a specific UE, resulting in a better service experience. In other words, more accurate channel estimation based on actual RF conditions of a particular UE can be derived so the base station can tune to the actual need of the UE.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media herein generate an E911 location report based on an uncertainty associated with a device-based hybrid (DBH) location received from a UE device. The uncertainty may be compared to an uncertainty threshold value to determine which values to include in a location report sent to a PSAP. A civic address associated with a UE device may be included in a location report where the uncertainty is sufficiently low, thus a location report can be sent to a PSAP with the most relevant and accurate information so that first responders can more effectively locate a distressed caller.
