Abstract: A communications system is to communicate with an application server storing a plurality of applications. The communications system includes a mobile wireless communications device configured to store at least one application from among the plurality of applications, the at least one application having stored version information associated therewith. An intermediate server is configured to update the mobile wireless communications device by at least obtaining respective current version information for associated current versions of the plurality of applications and obtaining the stored application version information from the mobile wireless communications device for the at least one stored application. The stored application version information is compared with the current version information for the at least one stored application.

Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for a user equipment device (UE), manufacturer server, and/or cellular network to perform radio capability signaling. A new type of UE radio capability identifier is provided which may allow a network to distinguish between similar UEs that have or have not implemented a capability update. In order to perform a forced capability update, a manufacturer may issue information about the update to a cellular network (and receive acknowledgement of the information) prior to pushing the update to UEs. In response to an unforced capability update, a cellular network may maintain multiple UE radio capability identifiers for similar UEs which have or have not implemented the update. A UE radio capability identifier may be adjusted dynamically in response to temporary changes in the UE's capability.

Abstract: A computer that dynamically generates a customized second document is described. During operation, the computer receives information specifying activation of a hosted field in a document associated with a third party, where the information specifies a willingness to receive one or more messages from the computer and specifies a telephone number. In response, the computer dynamically generates the customized second document that includes information about one or more transactions (such as one or more upcoming events) of interest to an individual associated with the telephone number. Then, the computer sends a message to an address corresponding to the telephone number, where the message includes a link to the customized second document. Next, when the computer receives information specifying activation of the link from an electronic device, the computer provides information specifying the customized second document to the electronic device for display on the electronic device.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods related to reducing or making more efficient handovers from one cell to another cell in a communications network. The method includes receiving mobility data for a device being serviced by a first cell, classifying the device based on the mobility data to yield a classification and making a handoff decision when handing off the device from the first cell to a second cell based at least in part on the classification. An example of the mobility data is a speed at which the device is moving or time a device is in a cell.

Abstract: The disclosed technology includes at least one method performed by a system of a telecommunications network. The system can establish a communications link between the wireless device and a network access node (NAN) of the 5G network. While connected over a non-mmW band, the wireless device autonomously schedules data downloads to occur when the wireless device is on an mmW band. The system then receives a request from the wireless device to perform the data downloads, which can be enabled by a packet gateway (PGW) upon receiving a confirmation by the NAN that the wireless device can connect over the mmW band. Otherwise, the PGW denies the wireless device's request to perform the data downloads, which can be enforced by the NAN.

Abstract: A text message communication is received from an operator device. A telephone number is assigned to a contact center agent device to enable the contact center agent device to use the telephone number to participate in a text message communication. Use of the telephone number by other devices is restricted while the telephone number is assigned to the contact center agent device. At a conclusion of the text message communication, the telephone number is released from the contact center agent device to enable one of the other devices to use the telephone number to either continue the same text message communication or to participate in a different text message communication.

In one example, a user send a request to a possible connection that identifies a distance range. The distance range represents a proposed distance at which the user and the connection will receive a notification when the user and connection are within that agreed-upon distance.

Abstract: In a case where a public key of a communication device is obtained, a terminal device may send a first request signal in which the public key is used to the communication device and execute a first-type communication in conformity with the first communication scheme with the communication device. The first-type communication may include sending first connection information for establishing a first wireless connection between the communication device and the access point to the communication device. In a case where the first-type communication has been failed, the terminal device may send a second request signal to the communication device and execute a second-type communication in conformity with the second communication scheme with the communication device. The second-type communication may include communicating second connection information for establishing a second wireless connection between the terminal device and the communication device with the communication device.

Abstract: Systems and methods described herein provide deployment optimization service. A network device in a network receives an order for virtual network function (VNF) deployments at network edge locations. The network device maps a radio access network (RAN) topology for the network edge locations. The network device identifies time windows to perform the VNF deployments, based on the order, historical transport and RAN utilization data, and the RAN topology. The network device selects an optimal time window to perform the VNF deployments based on stored policy rules and pushes software images for the VNF deployments to an image repository in a geographical region near the network edge locations. The network device analyzes, for the optimal time window, real-time network data for a pre-emptive condition. The network device pre-empts the VNF deployments when a pre-emptive condition is identified and initiates the VNF deployments when no pre-emptive condition is identified.

Abstract: An improved system and method for defining an event based upon an object location and a user-defined zone and managing the conveyance of object location event information among computing devices where object location events are defined in terms of a condition based upon a relationship between user-defined zone information and object location information. One or more location information sources are associated with an object to provide the object location information. One or more user-defined zones are defined on a map and one or more object location events are defined. The occurrence of an object location event produces object location event information that is conveyed to users based on user identification codes. Accessibility to object location information, zone information, and object location event information is based upon an object location information access code, a zone information access code, and an object location event information access code, respectively.

Abstract: A wireless communication network serves a wireless data service to a wireless User Equipment (UE). In the wireless communication network, a network controller receives a service request from the wireless UE. The network controller responsively indicates the service request to a Unified Data Management (UDM). The UDM receives the indication. The UDM identifies provisioned service values for the wireless UE. The UDM retrieves updated service values for the wireless UE. The UDM identifies a set of the provisioned service values that correspond to the updated service values. The UDM generates new provisioned service values by overriding the set of the provisioned service values based on the updated service values. The UDM transfers new provisioned service values to the network controller. The network controller receives the new provisioned service values. The network controller serves the wireless UE based on the new provisioned service values.
