  • Publication number: 20240356597
    Abstract: The technologies described herein are generally directed to providing, based on a paging message, radio resources to facilitate a transition to active mode by idle user equipment in a fifth generation (5G) network or other next generation networks. An example method can include identifying an idle mode activation message. The method can further include, based on the activation message, predicting that the user device is going to request an active connection. Further, the method can include prioritizing allocation of antenna resources to the user device over different user devices in an idle state, based on a prediction that the user device will transition to an active state before the different user devices. Further, the method can include, based on the prioritizing, directing a base station to cause a beamformed signal to a predicted location of the user device to accept the active connection.

  • Patent number: 12099592
    Abstract: A single sign-on system using blockchain is disclosed. The single sign-on system may interconnect various organization systems over a peer-to-peer network, with each organization system having a blockchain node and an application programming interface (API). The blockchain node invokes and uses a smart contract to write registration credentials to the blockchain during a registration process. During a login process, the blockchain node invokes the smart contract to determine whether login credentials match stored login credentials in the blockchain. In response to matching login credentials, the API may generate a single sign-on token that can be used by a user device to access one or more organization systems connected over the network.

  • Patent number: 12093909
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for implementing scheduled transactions within a payment network. A computing device first determines that a trigger has occurred for a scheduled transaction for a first payment network. Then, the computing device identifies a network identifier for the recipient and a participant identifier for a recipient of the scheduled transaction. Next, the computing device determines, based at least in part on the network identifier, that the recipient of the scheduled transaction is associated with a second payment network. Subsequently, the computing device generates a payment request representing the scheduled transaction, the payment request comprising the network identifier for the recipient and the participant identifier for the recipient. Then, the computing device forwards the payment request to a global transaction router of a supernetwork.
