Abstract: A slice manager associated with a network access point of a telecommunication network can manage combinations of network slices and bandwidth parts for user equipment (UE). The bandwidth parts can have independently set numerologies, such as subcarrier spacing values. The UE can be configured to use one or more active bandwidth parts at a time, such that the slice manager can instruct the UE to use multiple active bandwidth parts simultaneously with respect to the same network slice or multiple network slices.

Abstract: After a user equipment (UE) selects, out of multiple supported frequency bands, an anchor layer to use to camp on a base station of a telecommunication network, the base station can select a new anchor layer for the UE. The base station can use information about itself, neighboring base stations, and/or the UE to determine which anchor layer would best allow the UE to achieve an experience goal, such as a highest throughput, lowest latency, highest coverage availability, or other goal.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for provisioning a feature associated with a brand of a wireless communication network may include loading a trigger condition in a catalog for triggering the feature, wherein an in-memory cache of the catalog is accessible by a network provisioning engine of the wireless communication network. At the network provisioning engine, the method may further include receiving, from a billing system computer, a transaction request for a subscriber having a rate plan associated with the brand, using a brand indication in the transaction request to locate the in-memory cache of the catalog, and determining whether the transaction request meets the trigger condition. If the transaction request meets the trigger condition, the method may further include determining a network node for provisioning the feature, and sending instructions to the network node to provision the feature in the subscriber's rate plan.

Abstract: A telecommunication network associated with a wireless telecommunication provider can be configured to dynamically switch the primary cell (PCell) used by user equipment (UE) for carrier aggregation (CA) in 5G cellular networks. Instead of remaining anchored to an initially selected PCell, a different PCell may be dynamically selected based on different network conditions. The network conditions may include network congestion, network capacity, uplink speed, location of the UE, an activity of the UE (e.g., is the UE uploading or planning to upload data), and the like. As an example, the PCell may be selected from an n41 (2.5 GHz) cell and an n71 (600 MHz) cell. When the UE is close to the n41 cell, the n41 cell may be selected. When the UE is moving away from the cell center and toward the cell edge, the PCell may be switched from the n41 cell to the n71 cell.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques that enable a supplemental voltage to be delivered to a Remote Radio Unit (RRU) to compensate for a voltage loss that occurs between a primary Direct Current (DC) power source and the RRU. A supplemental voltage controller is described that captures current environmental metadata associated with an operation of the RRU and calculates an RRU voltage at the RRU. In doing so, the supplemental voltage controller may generate a supplemental voltage control signal that supplements the RRU with a supplemental DC voltage.

Abstract: When a first radio of a UE has an air-interface connection with an access node on a first carrier and the UE encounters a trigger for the UE to scan for and report to the access node coverage on a second carrier, a second radio of the UE, rather than the first radio of the UE, will conduct the scanning, and the first radio of the UE will then report to access node over the air-interface connection on the first carrier a result of the scanning conducted by the second radio. Optimally, the first radio of the UE thus need not tune away from its air-interface connection with the access node in order for the UE to scan for target coverage on the second carrier. And the process could thereby help avoid the interruption of communication between the UE and the access node on the air-interface connection over the first carrier.

Abstract: Systems and methods for avoiding radio frequency (RF) interference are discussed herein. To protect incumbent stations of a communications network, a wireless carrier can direct signals transmitted by network sites away from the proximal incumbent sites or can prevent transmitting signals from the network sites in the direction(s) of the proximal incumbent sites. The disclosed systems and methods can prevent interference by not transmitting the network signal in a direction of a proximal incumbent site without any prior information about the incumbent stations relative to proximal network sites (e.g., location, height, or the like). The disclosed systems and methods can transmit test signals, receive confirmation signals, and analyze confirmation signals to determine the direction(s) in which to not transmit network signals.

Abstract: Systems and methods for selectively routing an unanswered communication session to a voicemail system based at least on a voicemail system identifier (FQDN) mapped to a voicemail pilot number (present within the voicemail routing profile) are described herein. The system generates the voicemail routing profile in response to a provisioning request that identifies one or more messaging services, including a voicemail service, that are to be provided to a user profile. The voicemail profile is stored within a database that is accessed to obtain the voicemail routing profile when a user device registers with a communication network and is associated with the user profile. The system utilizes internal lookup tables and repository functions to identify the voicemail system associated with the user profile and the voicemail routing profile in response to a communication session being unanswered.

Abstract: In a multi-HSS domain, in which some HSSs support a custom route advance (RA) logic and others do not, a P-CSCF may receive a request for service from a UE associated with one of the HSSs, and send the request to an assigned S-CSCF (S-CSCF1) associated with the UE. Upon failing to receive a response from the S-CSCF1 within a preset time period, the P-CSCF may send the request to the I-CSCF. Based on information included in the request, the I-CSCF may discover an address of a second S-CSCF (S-CSCF2) from the associated HSS and sending the request to the S-CSCF2 based on the discovered address of the S-CSCF2, or send a message indicative of the requested service being unavailable to the P-CSCF.
