Abstract: When an access node is providing a UE with carrier-aggregation service on a PCell in combination with one or more SCells and the UE engages in a voice call including uplink voice communication on the PCell, the access node will determine that there is a threshold high level of IMD on the uplink resulting from concurrent downlink transmissions, and the access node will responsively swap the UE's PCell with one of the UE's one or more SCells. In a representative implementation, the decision to swap these carriers in the UE's connection could be based on a further determination that the level of IMD on the uplink of the SCell is not threshold high.

Abstract: A method for synchronizing Customer Relationship Management data between a Software as a Service (“SaaS”) CRM provider and a mobile device. This method enables both read and write access from the mobile device whether a network connection to the SaaS provider is available or not. The method involves creating a local mobile device database to track portions or all of the SaaS provider database. In the case where a network separation occurs and the device and SaaS databases diverge, the synchronization method may be used to make the mobile device database and the SaaS database consistent and coherent again. In one embodiment, multiple local database tables are used to represent a single SaaS CRM table to facilitate synchronization, and a status indicator is used to visually and quickly convey status to the mobile user.

Abstract: A wireless communication utilizes robust header compression efficiently with improved improvements in packet data convergence protocol configuration for increasing channel throughput. A user equipment (UE) receives a configuration indicating a first listing of header generic options that are supported between the UE and a first base station. The UE obtains a first packet including a first uncompressed header that indicates header parameters. The UE determines whether the header parameters in the first uncompressed header corresponds to at least one header generic option in the first listing of header generic options. The UE communicates the first packet that may have a first compressed header based on a first header compression profile or an uncompressed header depending on whether the header parameters in the first uncompressed header corresponds to at least one header generic option in the first listing of header generic options.

Abstract: Methods and systems for calibrating the return and forward links of a satellite communication system are provided according to embodiments of the invention. The phase and/or amplitude variations caused by the return and forward links are calculated and/or estimated to aid in beamforming, such as ground-based beamforming. Calibration earth stations, distributed within one or more beam patterns, may be used to transmit calibration codes to the gateway to calibrate the return link. Return links variations may be estimated using a weighted minimum mean square algorithm at the gateway. Forward links may be calibrated with calibration codes transmitted from the gateway through a hybrid matrix to at least one calibration station. Forward calibration links may also calibrate for temperature-dependent signal variations such as diplexer variations at the satellite.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method to route a call from a roaming UE on a 5G network. The system receives from a UE belonging to a home network an indication of a call to a dialed number. The call requires information associated with the UE that is not available to the first wireless telecommunication network, because the UE is roaming on a visitor network. The indication of the call includes a unique identifier of the visitor network. The system can determine based on the unique identifier that the UE is roaming and send a request to the visitor network to provide instructions on how to route the received call. Upon obtaining the instructions on how to route the received call, the system routes the received call.

Abstract: According to one or more embodiments of the disclosure, a first tunnel router may receive a reservation request to establish a deterministic path between a first node and a second node. The first tunnel router may determine, based on the reservation request, a destination address of the second node. The first tunnel router may identify, based on the destination address of the second node, a second tunnel router associated with the second node. The first tunnel router may encapsulate a deterministic packet sent by the first towards the second node into a tunnel packet, wherein a multicast address in a header of the tunnel packet is set to the destination address of the second node. The first tunnel router can forward the tunnel packet along the deterministic path. The multicast address in the header of the tunnel packet causes nodes to send the tunnel packet according to the deterministic path.
