  • Patent number: 12127232
    Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting and mitigating the effects of time of flight interference of a radio frequency (RF) signal are provided. A wireless communication network may determine, based on one or more parameters being sufficiently different than a baseline value, that time of flight interference is occurring based on the undesirable propagation of a first cell's downlink signals into a second cell's coverage area. In response to the determination, the network may identify an offending base station and modify the RF transmission characteristics of the offending base station to prevent or mitigate the impact of the interference event on the RF signal's propagation.

  • Patent number: 12115937
    Abstract: Aspects provided herein provide methods, apparatus, and a non-transitory computer storage medium storing computer instructions for vehicle disturbance alerting in a network. The method begins with receiving a vibration alert from a sensor installed in a vehicle. The sensor may be an accelerometer, gyroscope, or motion-capable sensor and is in communication with a low power radar sensor that is also installed in the vehicle. A low power radar sensor is activated in response to the vibration alert. At least one radar signature is received from the low power radar sensor. The radar signature is then compared with at least one driver radar signature. The driver radar signature is recorded when a driver occupies a driver seat position and operates the vehicle. Based on the comparison, a determination is made whether to issue a vehicle disturbance alert.

  • Patent number: 12120518
    Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting false base stations are provided. A computing device transmits a request for a verification message to a base station. An encrypted verification message comprising a base station identifier and a signature encrypted using an encryption key associated with the base station is received by the computing device. The computing device decrypts the signature included in the encrypted verification message utilizing a decryption key associated with the computer system. Based on the decrypted signature, the computing device determines that the encryption key does not correspond to the decryption key. Based on determining that the encryption key does not correspond to the decryption key, the computing device stores the base station identifier in a data store in association with a false base station indicator.

  • Patent number: 12114255
    Abstract: A User Equipment (UE) receives wireless network services from a first wireless network slice and a second wireless network slice over a non-Third Generation Partnership Project (non-3GPP) link. A Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) client authenticates with a 3GPP network over the non-3GPP link and establishes a first N1 signaling link for the first wireless network slice over the non-3GPP link. The 3GPP client authenticates with the 3GPP network over the non-3GPP link and establishes a second N1 signaling link for the second wireless network slice over the non-3GPP link. The first user application exchanges data with the first wireless network slice over the non-3GPP link. The second user application exchanges data with the second wireless network slice over the non-3GPP link. The 3GPP client maintains both N1 signaling links when both user applications are exchanging their data with the wireless network slices over the non-3GPP link.

  • Patent number: 12114256
    Abstract: A wireless communication network serves User Equipment (UE) based on co-location and Received Signal Strength (RSS). A serving wireless access node selects itself for an uplink and downlink when no candidate wireless access nodes are co-located with the serving node. The serving node selects a candidate node for the uplink and downlink when the candidate node is co-located with the serving node and has an RSS level that exceeds a first threshold. The serving node selects itself for the uplink and selects a candidate node for the downlink when the candidate node is co-located with the serving node and has an RSS between the first threshold and a second threshold. The UE may trigger access node selection by entering idle mode. The serving node may condition the selection of a candidate node on whether the candidate node supports a wireless network slice for the UE.

  • Patent number: 12113683
    Abstract: Immutable archiving of remote controlled user equipment telemetry-command (TC) data for wireless communications networks systems and applications is provided. In some embodiments, one or more applications executing on the UE report selected TC data to a TC data archiving function. TC data is both captured and preserved by the TC data archiving function in a manner that establishes sufficient integrity for the data for the purpose of establishing an immutable record comprising at least the operating state of a remote operated UE, and commands that a controller UE was sending to the remote operated UE. Determining the TC data selected for archiving may be based on an inflection criteria. In some embodiments, a session block sequence is generated using a distributed application (DApp), and TC data is reported to the TC data archiving function using the session block sequence.

  • Patent number: 12108378
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media herein dynamically modify the beam patterns used by an antenna array to communicate with user devices in a sector. A set of metrics are monitored and used to generate time-averaged beam quality values for a default beam pattern and then compared to a time-averaged beam quality of a subset of beams within the default beam pattern. If the time-averaged beam quality for the subset of beams exceeds a percentage of the time-averaged beam quality of the default beam pattern, the antenna array is re-assigned to communicate via a second beam pattern.

  • Patent number: 12108295
    Abstract: A wireless communication network serves a wireless User Equipment (UE) over a higher-priority Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) and a lower-priority PLMN. The UE switches between the higher-priority PLMN at a wireless access node and the lower-priority PLMN at another access node. A network controller detects the excessive PLMN-switching and signals the UE to avoid the higher-priority PLMN until the wireless UE returns from idle mode. The wireless access node exchanges additional communications with the wireless UE over the lower-priority PLMN until the wireless UE enters the idle mode. The wireless access node may exchange additional communications with the wireless UE over the higher-priority PLMN after the UE returns from idle mode.
