  • Patent number: 11943820
    Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a Wi-Fi admission control and prioritization service is provided. The Wi-Fi admission control and prioritization service may be included in a Wi-Fi access device. The Wi-Fi admission control and prioritization service may include the Wi-Fi access device reserving Wi-Fi data connections for priority users. An end device may transmit priority information to the Wi-Fi access device during a Wi-Fi connection establishment procedure. The Wi-Fi access device may use one of the reserved data connections to establish a Wi-Fi connection with the end device. The priority information may include a non-Wi-Fi access control class value that indicates the end device is of a high priority. The Wi-Fi access device may provide quality of service and prioritization, which is in correspondence to the priority information, to traffic of the end device that traverses the Wi-Fi access device.

  • Patent number: 11910472
    Abstract: A system described herein may provide a technique for providing high priority access to one or more particular priority cells implemented by a base station of a radio access network (“RAN”) associated with a wireless telecommunications network. A first group of User Equipment (“UEs”) may be High Priority Access (“HPA”) UEs, and a second group of UEs may be non-HPA UEs. In response to triggering events, system broadcast messages and/or Radio Resource Control (“RRC”) release messages may be used to cause HPA UEs to connect to the priority cells, and may cause non-HPA UEs to connect to other (e.g., non-priority) cells implemented by the base station.

  • Patent number: 11799939
    Abstract: A system described herein may provide for the prioritization of Session Initiation Protocol (“SIP”) messages, transmitted by a User Equipment (“UE”), based on a priority class indicator (“PCI”) included in a registration message (e.g., a SIP REGISTER message) from the UE. The PCI may be included in a contact header, a SIP contact Uniform Resource Identifier (“URI”), and/or some other portion of the registration message. A Universal Integrated Circuit Card (“UICC”) may store information indicating the priority class (e.g., in an Access Control Class (“ACC”) Elementary File (“EF”)). One or more network components, such as a Call Session Control Function (“CSCF”) may prioritize SIP messages from the UE based on the priority class indicator included in the registration message by the UE.

  • Patent number: 11671394
    Abstract: A system described herein may provide for the prioritization of Session Initiation Protocol (“SIP”) messages, transmitted by a User Equipment (“UE”), based on a priority class indicator included in the SIP messages by the UE. A Universal Integrated Circuit Card (“UICC”) may store information indicating the priority class (e.g., in an Access Control Class (“ACC”) Elementary File (“EF”)). One or more network components, such as a Call Session Control Function (“CSCF”) and/or a Messaging Application Server (“MAS”) may prioritize the SIP message based on the priority class indicator included in the SIP message by the UE.

  • Patent number: 11122092
    Abstract: Systems and methods implement prioritized IP Multimedia System (IMS) registration procedures for Emergency and Priority Service users. A network device in an IMS network, receives, from a user equipment device, a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Register message that includes a priority indication. The network device detects the priority indication in the SIP Register message and provides, based on the priority indication, priority registration for the user equipment device when the network device is in an overloaded condition.
