Abstract: Cross-optimization in wireless mobile networks. In an embodiment, a demand map is received for each of a plurality of networks. The demand map represents demand at a plurality of geographic locations in at least one cell of the network. Based on the demand maps, an optimal transfer of demand is generated between the plurality of networks at one or more of the plurality of geographic locations at which the plurality of networks overlap. Then, one or more parameters, to be used by at least one of the plurality of networks in a handover procedure, is determined, so as to produce the optimal transfer of demand between the plurality of networks at the one or more geographic locations at which the plurality of networks overlap.

Abstract: Application management for a mobile device. In an embodiment, identifier(s) of a mobile device are received over a network. A determination is made as to whether the mobile device has installed a software application based on the identifier(s). When the mobile device is not determined to have installed the software application, a Short Message Service (SMS) message is initiated for providing access to the software application to the mobile device. The access to the software application is provided to the mobile device via the SMS message. After the software application is provided to the mobile device, a determination is made as to whether the mobile device has installed the software application, and, when the mobile device is not determined to have installed the software application, reminder(s) are initiated to the mobile device. Each reminder may comprise an SMS message.

Abstract: Optimized offloading of wireless devices to alternative wireless networks. In an embodiment, a sector is determined to be busy based on measurement report(s) associated with the sector, wherein the measurement report(s) indicate at least one performance characteristic of the sector. When the sector is determined to be busy, it is determined whether sector(s) of an alternative network, which overlaps with the sector of the home network, are busy based on at least one performance characteristic of the sector(s) of the alternative network. When the sector of the home network is determined to be busy and the sector(s) of the alternative network are not determined to be busy, transmission of an instruction to offload wireless device(s), connected to the home network within the sector of the home network, to at least one of the sector(s) of the alternative network, is initiated.

Abstract: Techniques for using measurements made by UEs to improve network performance are described. In one aspect, RF parameters of cells may be determined by taking into account mobility of the UEs. Mobility information for the UEs may be determined based on measurement report messages (MRMs) sent by these UEs for handover. RF parameters such as antenna down-tilt, antenna orientation, antenna pattern, and/or pilot power of the cells may be determined based on the mobility information for the UEs. In another aspect, the RF parameters of cells may be dynamically adjusted based on loading conditions of cells. In yet another aspect, the location of a UE may be determined based on an MRM sent by the UE for handover. The MRM may include timing measurements for multiple cells. The location of the UE may be determined based on the timing measurements.
