Abstract: Network services exchange data packets with mobile terminals wirelessly connected to a network. The network receives reports from a subset of the mobile terminals. The reports indicate network services used by the reporting mobile terminals. Various corresponding methods include the network associating one or more first data packets with one of the network services based on the reports. The first data packets originate from, or are addressed to, the reporting mobile terminals. The network derives or adapts, based on data included in the first data packets, one or more rules for identifying the network service based on data included in second data packets. The second data packets are different from the first data packets.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for permitting, establishing, monitoring and controlling VOIP calls based on messages from outside parties, outside party availability information, institution's call restriction information, and/or account holder preferences. In one example, a message from an outside party app on an outside party computing device is receive by an inmate app on an inmate device. The inmate device displays the message at the inmate calling app including a request for the inmate to call the outside party device during a time period. When the inmate initiates a call to the outside party the call is permitted or not permitted based on determining whether the call is within the specified time period.

Abstract: A method is provided for transmitting a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) in a wireless communication system supporting multiple antennas. The method is performed by a user equipment (UE) having a first antenna port and a second antenna port, and configured for using a multiple-antenna transmit mode for transmission using multiple antennas and a single-antenna transmit mode for transmission using a single antenna. The UE determines that the multiple-antenna transmit mode is to be used for transmitting the PUCCH, and determines a transmit power offset value to be added to a transmit power of the PUCCH depending on a PUCCH format to be used for transmitting the PUCCH using the first and second antenna ports. The UE transmits the PUCCH by using a first PUCCH resource through the first antenna port, and transmits the PUCCH by using a second PUCCH resource through the second antenna port.

Abstract: A method, wireless device and computer program product for expanding the coverage of a cellular network. A wireless device (e.g., cellular telephone) is able to communicate with a base station in a cell of the cellular network over a non-cellular interface via another wireless device in a cell through the use of multi-hopping. A wireless device may request permission to communicate with the base station over a non-cellular interface via hopping off another wireless device when its signal strength is below a threshold. Alternatively, a wireless device may receive a request to communicate with the base station over a non-cellular interface via hopping off the wireless device that sent the request when that wireless device has excess capacity in its bandwidth with the base station.
