  • Patent number: 11825384
    Abstract: A user equipment transmits a request to configure a first network to transmit complementary content associated with multicast or broadcast content received at the user equipment from a second network. In some cases, the request is transmitted in response to the user equipment detecting that a quality of a signal received from the second network is below a threshold. In response to receiving the request, the first network is configured to transmit the complementary content. The complementary content is transmitted from the first network concurrently with transmitting the multicast or broadcast content from the second network. The user equipment combines the complementary content received from the first network with the multicast or broadcast content received from the second network.

  • Patent number: 11777861
    Abstract: Periodic requests for to Packet Flow Description, PFD, data updates on all Application Ids generate a constant background load in several network function nodes, even if applications have not been updated. There is provided a mechanism to optimize PFD management updates in a telecommunication network, whereby PFD data for a selected number of applications are stored and updated permanently, whilst PFD data for other applications are only temporarily stored so that storage and updates are released when these other applications are not in use. A list of permanent Application Ids is configured for the most frequently used applications. When a control rule specifies an Application Id not included in the list of permanent Application Ids, the specified Application Id is included in a list of temporary Application Ids, which are periodically checked and, when not used, are removed from the list of temporary Application Ids.
