  • Patent number: 11909782
    Abstract: A system described herein may provide a technique for Embodiments described herein provide for the use of machine learning, artificial intelligence, and/or other techniques for network-implemented spam call detection. Calls may be screened prior to notifying a called User Equipment (“UE”) that a call has been placed to the called UE. A Machine Learning Spam Detection Component (“MLSDC”) may screen a call, such as a voice call, by initiating a call session between the MLSDC and a calling UE, from which the call was requested. Via the established call session, the MLSDC may receive communications, such as voice communications, from the UE, and may determine a measure of likelihood that the call request is associated with spam by using machine learning or other techniques to compare the received communications against one or more models that indicate attributes of calls that have been identified as spam.

  • Patent number: 11877334
    Abstract: A wireless client device communicates, to an access point over a secure channel, a mapping of a dynamic device address to a stable device address. By communicating the mapping, the access point is able to determine that packets received from two different device addresses originate from a common device. The access point is then able to maintain an association between the originating device and other network resources assigned or allocated to the originating device, such as IP addresses or infrastructure station address, which is used to identify the originating device to other devices outside the network in some embodiments.

  • Patent number: 11831375
    Abstract: Aspects relate to mechanisms for wireless communication devices to report sub-band (SB) channel state information (SB-CSI). A UE receives a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission from a base station. The UE transmits either an acknowledgement (ACK) transmission or a negative acknowledgement (NACK) transmission to the base station in response to a reception of the PDSCH transmission. The UE determines whether to transmit a sub-band (SB) channel state information (SB-CSI) report to the base station based on whether the ACK transmission is transmitted to the base station or whether the NACK transmission is transmitted to the base station.

  • Patent number: 11824950
    Abstract: Provided are a method and apparatus for updating subscription information. The method includes steps described below. After a second NF transfers first subscription information to a third NF, where the first subscription information includes a first correlation identity allocated by the second NF to a first NF, the third NF allocates a second correlation identity to the first NF, and the third NF receives update subscription information of the first NF, where the update subscription information includes the second correlation identity. By using the above scheme, the issue of the lack of an update scheme of the subscription information adaptable a new system in the related art is resolved, and the update scheme of the subscription information adaptable the new system is proposed, for example, when across-NF registration of the user terminal is generated, the subscription message is updated between the new third NF and the first NF in time.

  • Patent number: 11785633
    Abstract: A real-time slice manager at a base station of a telecommunication network can manage radio resources allocated to network slices. The real-time slice manager can receive input factors associated with one or more network slices, including loading information, latency information, radio conditions, and other input factors. If the real-time slice manager determines that a network slice is not meeting a goal, such as a goal defined in a Service Level Agreement (SLA), the real-time slice manager can locally adjust radio resources allocated to one or more network slices, and/or treatment of network slices in a transport link or core network, to increase the likelihood that the network slice will meet the goal. The real-time slice manager can thus dynamically manage network slices at the base station to efficiently use available radio resources, manage network functions in the core network and/or transport link, and meet goals for the network slices.
