Abstract: A system described herein may identify sets of seed parameters that are each associated with a respective User Equipment (“UE”) of a group of UEs. The system may generate, based on the seed parameters for each UE, a respective set of UE usage metrics for each UE, and may generate a set of aggregate UE usage metrics based on the generated sets of UE usage metrics. The system may compare the aggregate UE usage metrics to a measure of network capacity; determine an amount of time that a measure of UE usage exceeds the measure of network capacity; determine that the amount of time, that the measure of UE usage exceeds the measure of network capacity, exceeds a threshold amount of time; and modify network configuration parameters based on determining that the amount of time, that UE usage exceeds the network capacity, exceeds the threshold amount of time.

Abstract: A network device may receive a first frequency, time, and phase synchronization from a first occupied bandwidth (OBW) portion provided by the network device, and may utilize the first frequency, time, and phase synchronization when providing first services to the first OBW portion. The network device may receive a second frequency, time, and phase synchronization from a second OBW portion provided by the network device, and may utilize the second frequency, time, and phase synchronization when providing second services to the first OBW portion.

Abstract: A device may receive user equipment (UE) data identifying a UE and a location of the UE, network data identifying base stations and locations of the base stations associated with the UE, and radio frequency transmit characteristics of the UE. The device may calculate a signal range of the UE based on the UE data, the network data, and the radio frequency transmit characteristics of the UE. The device may process the UE data, the network data, the signal range of the UE, and triggers, with a model, to determine that the radio frequency transmit characteristics of the UE should be modified. The device may cause the UE to modify the radio frequency transmit characteristics of the UE based on the model determining that the radio frequency transmit characteristics of the UE should be modified.

Abstract: A computer device may include a memory configured to store instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to receive a request from a user equipment (UE) device to resolve a Domain Name System (DNS) query for a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) and determine that the URL corresponds to a malicious URL. The processor may be further configured to select to not resolve the DNS query in response to determining that the URL corresponds to a malicious URL and send an indication to the UE device that the URL corresponds to a malicious URL.

Abstract: A system described herein may identify traffic associated with a User Equipment (“UE”) that is connected to a first network. The UE may maintain a plurality of UE identities via one or more SIM (“Subscriber Identification Module”) cards, Universal Integrated Circuit Cards (“UICCs”), etc. The system may determine, based on one or more policies, that the traffic is not authorized via the first network. In some situations, the traffic may not be authorized if the first network does not support a type, service, etc. of the traffic. The system may identify a second network, based on the one or more policies, via which the traffic is authorized, and may indicate the second network to the UE. The UE may automatically (e.g., without user intervention) switch to a particular UE identity that is associated with the second network, and may output the traffic via the second network using such UE identity.

Abstract: A system described herein may provide for an interface, such as a midhaul interface, between one or more radio elements of a radio access network (“RAN”), such as a Distributed Unit (“DU”) and/or a radio unit (“RU”), and higher layer functions of the RAN, such a Central Unit (“CU”). The interface may provide for the DU to be communicatively coupled to multiple CUs, which may be associated with multiple distinct core networks. The system may route uplink traffic, received from User Equipment (“UEs”) via the RU and the DU, to an appropriate CU. The system may resolve conflicting instructions, for the DU, received from different CUs. The resolution may be performed based on relative priority levels of the CUs or other factors. The system may provide for granular monitoring of traffic parameters on a per-CU basis, thus preserving the privacy of different core networks.

Abstract: A system described herein may serve as an interface between one or more radio units (“RUs”) of a wireless network and one or more Distributed Units (“DUs”) of the RAN. The system may maintain information associating a set of RUs with a particular DU. The system may determine that a particular RU of the set of RUs should be disassociated from the particular DU, such as based on load metrics associated with the particular DU exceeding one or more thresholds. The system may disassociate the particular RU from the particular DU by modifying the information associating the set of RUs with the particular DU. The modified may indicate that the particular RU is no longer associated with the particular DU. The system may accordingly facilitate communications between the modified set of RUs, not including the particular RU, and the particular DU.

Abstract: In some implementations, a network device may determine that a user equipment (UE) is operating in coverage of a boundary cell associated with overlapping coverage provided by a first cell and a second cell. The network device may determine that a first time division duplex (TDD) slot pattern associated with the first cell differs from a second TDD slot pattern associated with the second cell. The network device may determine a boundary region TDD slot pattern to be used for communications with the UE within the coverage of the boundary cell based on at least one of the first TDD slot pattern or the second TDD slot pattern. The network device may communicate with the UE using the boundary region TDD slot pattern.

Abstract: In some implementations, a user equipment (UE) may determine that the UE is operating in a time division duplex (TDD) boundary region in which the UE receives or measures signals from two or more cells or other UEs. The UE may determine that a first TDD slot pattern associated with at least one of a first cell or a first other UE differs from a second TDD slot pattern associated with at least one of a second cell or a second other UE. The UE may determine a boundary region TDD slot pattern to be used for communications within the TDD boundary region based on at least one of the first TDD slot pattern or the second TDD slot pattern. The UE may communicate with a network device using the boundary region TDD slot pattern.

Abstract: An extended reality (XR) support system establishes a communicative link between an XR presentation system and a multi-access edge compute (MEC) system operating on a cellular network. The XR support system identifies a parameter associated with a computing task to be performed in connection with an XR experience presented by the XR presentation system. The XR support system also identifies a condition associated with a capability of the XR presentation system or the MEC system to perform the computing task. Based on the identified parameter and the identified condition, the XR support system selects at least one of the XR presentation system or the MEC system to perform the computing task and then directs the selected system to perform the computing task. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

Abstract: An on-board diagnostic test for an exhaust gas oxygen sensor includes sensing the output of the oxygen sensor and summing the output over a specified period to determine the length of the trace of the sensor voltage versus time. Such length over a given time period indicates the activity of the sensor. This data is compared to a threshold to determine if the exhaust gas oxygen sensor meets certain performance requirements.
