Publication number: 20230276215Abstract: The technologies described herein are generally directed to using portable situational awareness equipment with communication resources deployed to facilitate communications at a remote incident area, in a fifth generation (5G) network or other next generation networks. For example, a method described herein can include identifying a remote incident area associated with an incident. The method can further include, based on the incident, estimating a deployment location for portable network equipment within the remote incident area, resulting in an estimated deployment location. Further, the method can include, based on the estimated deployment location and estimated signal propagation at locations within the remote incident area, selecting a placement location for communication equipment to facilitate communication with the portable network equipment.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 25, 2022Publication date: August 31, 2023Inventors: Brad Runco, Jeff Bartlett, Christopher San Gaspar

Publication number: 20230247387Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a network device that comprises a processing system including a processor and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations. The operations include obtaining timing advance data regarding a communication device served by the network; the timing advance data is collected by a network element coupled to the network device, and the network element communicates with the communication device using control-plane signaling. The timing advance data is processed using location data regarding the network element to determine a geolocation of the communication device. The geolocation is stored at a storage device; the network device and storage device are included in a secure portion of the network. The geolocation is provided to equipment of a network customer accessing the secure portion of the network via a secure interface. Other embodiments are disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2023Publication date: August 3, 2023Applicants: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P., AT&T Mobility II LLCInventors: Jeff Bartlett, Jordan Alexander, Thomas Becker

Publication number: 20230224692Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a device in which a processing system detects installation of a subscriber identity module (SIM) on a communication device configured for connection to the network; the SIM includes a radio policy manager (RPM) provided by the network operator to manage network policies. The system also monitors connection of the communication device to the network and communications between the SIM and a processor of the communication device. The RPM determines whether the communication device is compliant with the network policies; if the communication device is not compliant with the network policies, the RPM causes the connection of the communication device to the network to be disabled. Other embodiments are disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2023Publication date: July 13, 2023Applicants: AT & T Intellectual Property I, L.P., AT & T Mobility II LLCInventors: Jeff Bartlett, Jordan Alexander, Robert Holden
