Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for advertisement-supported wireless offloading are disclosed. According to one aspect, a system for advertisement-supported wireless offloading includes an offload controller for controlling mobile device offloading, the controller including a network interface for sending and receiving messages in a telecommunications network and a control module for detecting a subscriber offload request, causing an advertisement to be sent to the subscriber's mobile device, determining whether the subscriber did or did not accept the advertisement, and providing a response to the offload request based on whether the subscriber did or did not accept the advertisement.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media system for collecting and distributing session initiation protocol (SIP) event watcher entity subscription information in a communications network are disclosed. According to one aspect, the method includes receiving, at a first notifier server from a watcher entity client, a first subscription request for SIP event information associated with one or more watched entity clients. The method also includes receiving, at a watcher information (WINFO) entity, SIP event subscription information that includes an identifier indicating that the first notifier server serves the watcher entity client, storing the SIP event subscription information in the WINFO entity, detecting the unavailability of the first notifier server. The method further includes sending an instruction message, based on the identifier in the stored SIP event subscription information, to direct the watcher entity to generate a second subscription request associated for the SIP event information.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for dynamically configuring customer premises equipment (CPE) in a converged network are disclosed. According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein comprises a method performed at a mobility offload gateway that includes receiving cell site change notification message from a mobile network, determining, based on the change notification message, whether user equipment (UE) can be offloaded to a Wi-Fi network, and in response to determining that the UE can be offloaded, dynamically configuring consumer premises equipment (CPE) associated with the identified Wi-Fi network to support a predetermined quality of service (QoS) for the UE.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for distributing policy rules from a data content network to user equipment in a mobile network are disclosed. In one example, the method includes obtaining, by a mobile offload gateway (MOG) located in a core data content network, at least one mobile policy rule associated with a mobile subscriber. The method further includes transmitting, from the MOG, the at least one mobile policy rule to a user equipment (UE) located outside of the core data content network, wherein the UE is associated with the mobile subscriber and configuring the UE to function in accordance to the at least one mobile policy rule.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for dynamically controlling congestion in a radio access network are disclosed. According to one aspect, a system for dynamically controlling congestion in a radio access network includes a policy and charging rules function (PCRF) for receiving, from a node for communicating with user equipment via a radio access network, admission requests, and, in response to receiving the admission requests, installing, on the node, subscriber-specific policies to control congestion in the radio access network.

Abstract: According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a system for controlling local breakout using a policy infrastructure. The system includes a policy and charging rules function (PCRF) configured to receive an admission request associated with a subscriber from an evolved node B (eNode B) and, in response to the admission request, to install a subscriber-specific policy on the eNode B for implementing local breakout at the eNode B for the subscriber.

Abstract: The subject matter described herein includes methods, systems, and computer readable media for providing a PCRF with an integrated openflow controller. According to one system, a policy and charging rules function (PCRF) is configured to determine policies to apply to network sessions or users. An openflow controller is integrated with the PCRF and configured to provide instructions to telecommunications network elements in an openflow protocol to implement the policies.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media system for collecting and distributing session initiation protocol (SIP) event watcher entity subscription information in a communications network are disclosed. According to one aspect, a system includes one or more notifier servers for receiving subscription requests for SIP event information associated with a plurality of watched entities from a plurality of watcher entities.

Abstract: According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a method for caching call session control function (CSCF) data at a Diameter signaling router (DSR). The method includes steps occurring at a DSR network node comprising a communication interface, a processor, and a memory. The steps include receiving, via the communication interface, a Diameter message associated with a network subscriber. The steps also include identifying, by the processor, a CSCF associated with the network subscriber based on the Diameter message. The steps further include storing, in the memory, a record associating the CSCF and the network subscriber.
