Abstract: A system for hiding an internal topology of a network having plurality of client and server entities is provided herein. The system comprises a topology hiding node that coordinates communication between systems in two distinct networks: Home Public Land Mobile and Visited Public Land Mobile. The topology hiding node includes long term storage and a short term storage which includes a change list. A real identity of one system entity is represented by at least one virtual identity allocated from a group of at least two virtual identities, when communicating with the other system entities, and the relation between the virtual identities and the real identities of a current communication session is recorded in the change list and stored in short term storage and the relation between the virtual identities and the real identities of a previous communication sessions is stored in the long term storage.

Abstract: This technology discloses a controlling and steering device for maintaining national connection between a mobile device of a subscriber and a mobile network. The system comprises: a tracing module, a steering logic module and a communication module. The tracing module is configured to: (i) periodically sample a mobile device of a subscriber or a location of the mobile device; and (ii) check amount of data sent and received from the mobile device is below a specified threshold. The steering logic module is configured to determine if a national connection between a mobile device of a subscriber via a Mobility Management Entity (MME) and a mobile network via a Home Subscriber Server (HSS) is permitted and wherein the communication module is arranged to send and receive messages from HSS to MME and from MME to HSS.

Abstract: A method, non-transitory computer readable medium and device that determines a provider of wireless communication services includes receiving a request for wireless communication services from a computerized mobile device of a roaming user. A type of request for wireless communication services is identified. A mobile network operator is determined according to type of requested wireless communication service, location of the user, time, and availability of the requested wireless communication service. The mobile network operator is at least one of Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) or local network operator. Active elements in the determined mobile network operator are calculated. A check is made of which network elements in a home network of the user should be addressed. The home network of the user is a network of a provider of a wireless communication service where the user is registered.

Abstract: A system, computer readable medium and method of load balancing of requests between Diameter-enabled network devices is disclosed. Processing occurs at a signal controller in communication with a first Diameter-enabled network device and a second Diameter-enabled network device, request handling capacity of at least the second Diameter-enabled network device. One or more tokens are allocated for inbound requests from the first Diameter-enabled network device to the second Diameter-enabled network device. The second Diameter-enabled network device is notified of the one or more allocated tokens for handling a corresponding number of requests from the first Diameter-enabled network device. Transmission of the corresponding number of requests from the first Diameter-enabled network device to the second Diameter-enabled network device is coordinated by the signal controller.

Abstract: A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and device that optimizes establishing connections to and facilitating offers of roaming services, the method includes adding, by a diameter roaming gateway controller device, a domain name of a packet data network gateway in the home network system to an update location answer received in response to an update location request from a home subscriber system in a home network system associated with a roaming mobile computing device. The update location answer is sent, by the diameter roaming gateway controller device, to a mobility management entity in a visited network. Redirect information is added, by the diameter roaming gateway controller device, to a credit control answer received from the policy charging and rules function element in the home network system in response to a credit control request message generated by a packet data network gateway in the home network system.
