Abstract: A device receives sensor data for a group of user equipment (UE) that are located within or on a structure. The device determines, based on a set of measured barometric pressures identified by the sensor data, a set of relative altitudes that identify altitudes of the group of UEs relative to each other. The device determines, based on at least a portion of the sensor data and relative altitude data that identifies the set of relative altitudes, and for each UE of the group of UEs, a floor on which the UE is located. The device causes, based on determining respective floors on which the UEs of the group of UEs are located, a data structure to store a mapping of each UE to the respective floors. The device performs one or more actions based on the mapping.

Abstract: In multicarrier networks mobile devices can be distributed amongst carriers based on different criteria. However, prioritization may cause certain devices to end up on a carrier that is not optimal for the network. When there is a deployment of different types of cells (e.g., macro cells, small cells, etc.), the cells can use the same frequency. Consequently, a priority value contained within a system information broadcast message can override the mobile default cell transition procedures and thus select a neighboring cell based on additional criteria. Thus, small cells can be deployed to offload traffic from macro cells in spite of the small cells and macro cells operating in the same frequency band.

The location reporting control message comprises a list of CAG identifiers. The AMF receives, from a second base station, a location report message notifying the change of the CAG area. The AMF sends, to the network function, an event exposure notify message indicating the change of the CAG area.

A light weight model (LWM) for an object involved in the state transition is received and is personalized based on at least one of the sensor data and one or more preferences related to the user to generate a personalized model (PM) for the object, which is then sent to the user device.

Abstract: Mobile networks may be configured to broadcast wireless emergency alert (WEA) messages to receiving mobile devices. A mobile device within the network may receive a WEA message including data defining a geographic region associated with the message. Using the data defining the geographic region for the WEA message, the mobile device may perform location-based geofencing techniques to determine whether to present a notification in response to the WEA message. In various examples, a mobile device may calculate an offset distance based on a transgression parameter and may determine a second geographic region using the offset distance. The mobile device also may determine its current location and compare the location to the second geographic region to determine whether to present the WEA message, thereby limiting and/or minimizing the negative effects of potential undershoot and overshoot errors caused by inaccurate location determinations by mobile devices.
