Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for determining network scanning rates for electronic devices. For instance, a system can receiving a first indication that a mobile device has established a connection with a satellite. The system can determine a scanning rate for the mobile device to scan at based on whether the mobile device is located/moving close to or far from network coverage. The system can also determine the scanning rate based on a geographic region associated with the satellite, the satellite's association with a telecommunications network, a velocity of the satellite, a velocity or location of the mobile device, and the like. The system transmits instructions to the mobile device to scan for network coverage at a first rate and can determine a new rate for scanning based on the mobile device connecting to another satellite or network access node, the mobile device's position/velocity, and the like.

Abstract: System and methods for providing antenna identifiers to base stations with reference signals for use in adjusting mobile device antenna configurations are described. A mobile device may transmit an antenna identifier with a reference signal value to a base station. The base station uses the reference signal value to determine an quality of the channel over which the reference signal value was received. If the quality of the channel is poor, the base station generates instructions that include the antenna identifier for the mobile device. These instructions may cause the mobile device to adjust the indicated antenna to improve the antenna's performance. The base stations sends these instructions to the mobile device for implementation, resulting in improved performance and throughput for the mobile device.

Abstract: A carrier network may provide UE capability message handling with reduced network traffic using a UE capability repository. For example, a Mobility Management Entity (MME) may receive, from a user equipment (UE), a token associated with UE capability information of the UE, transmit, to a UE capability repository, a request for UE capability information of the UE based at least in part on the token, receive, from the UE capability repository, the UE capability information of the UE associated with the token, and perform operations with the UE based on the UE capability information of the UE associated with the token.

Abstract: Techniques for configuring user equipment that has been suspended or deactivated are discussed herein. In some examples, the techniques can include remotely configuring the user equipment (UE) in response to the UE attempting to access a network while the UE includes a subscriber identity module (SIM) that is suspended or deactivated. When a suspended UE attempts to access a network, a message may be routed to a network node, which can respond (or cause the network to respond) with a cause code or a device profile. In some examples, the UE may activate a device profile stored in the device based on the cause code or the UE can configure itself based on the received device profile. In this manner, a suspended device can be prevented from accessing a network but may remain functional for many other uses as well as for emergency communications.

Abstract: The present technology relates to satellite loss prediction using timing advance values. In aspects, a wireless device receives a first timing advance value from a satellite, followed by a series of second timing advance values over a period of time. The device determines the rate of change of the second timing advance values. Using this rate of change, the wireless device predicts a specific time at which a third timing advance value, equal or similar to the first timing advance value, will be received. The device then outputs an indication that it will lose access to the satellite at the predicted time. In doing so, a user of the wireless device can prepare for loss of the satellite.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for voice call optimization. Methods include receiving a request to initiate a voice call from a wireless device configured to connect to a WLAN of a wireless gateway device. In response to receiving the request, the method includes determining an organizationally unique identifier (OUI) of the wireless gateway device and searching a database containing organizationally unique identifiers (OUIs) for the OUI of the wireless gateway device. The method further includes executing the voice call over a cellular network without using the wireless gateway device upon finding the OUI of the wireless gateway device in the database.

Abstract: Described herein are a user equipment (UE) and base station configured to activate slot aggregation for the UE. The UE is configured to determine that one or more performance indicators of uplink quality meet an activation threshold for slot aggregation and, in response, to transmit a packet repeatedly to the base station in consecutive slots. The base station can also be configured to determine that one or more performance indicators of uplink quality from the UE meet an activation threshold for slot aggregation. In response, the base station may schedule consecutive slots for transmission of a packet from the UE to the base station.

Abstract: Described herein is a network node configured to receive a request for a location of a user equipment (UE) from a related party having a pre-established relationship with the UE or to receive an indication from the UE that it is in a lost mode. The network node is further configured to send a network-initiated location request (NILR) to the UE in response to receiving the request for the location or the indication, to receive the location of the UE from the UE in response to the NILR, and to provide the location of the UE to the related party.

Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to a pull-through winding method, and a manufacturing fixture, or mandrel, that guides the layup of material in the pull-through winding method, for fabrication of a three-dimensional load bearing structure. These systems and methods allow fibers of material of the 3D load bearing structure to be pulled as straight as possible during winding, and maintained as straight as possible during curing, to take full advantage of properties associated with the fiber or filament-based materials used in these structures, including, for example, carbon fiber material. The manufacturing fixture includes a plurality of pull-through slots at end portions thereof, that provide for the pulling of the fiber-based material, and the application and maintenance of tension in the material that maintains the alignment of the fibers as the material is wound, cured and hardened.

Abstract: Described herein is a user equipment (UE) configured to determine an occurrence of a triggering event associated with a data saving profile and, in response, activate the data saving profile. The data saving profile includes rules for at least two of stopping background data, limiting short message service (SMS) retries, early timeouts, stopping incoming calls or redirecting incoming calls to voicemail, blocking video streaming, limiting connection attempts, restricting use of the UE as a personal hotspot, or restricting use of certain access point names (APNs) or data network names (DNNs). The UE then applies the rules of the data saving profile to at least one of incoming data or outgoing data. The applying of the rules limits some data transmissions without stopping all data transmissions.

Abstract: A telecommunication network limits bandwidth usage for devices associated with lower service priority levels, thus conserving physical resources for use by devices with higher service priority levels. Low priority devices can include mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) devices, roaming devices, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and/or the like. The telecommunication network enforces the limited bandwidth usage if a low priority device is capable of using channel subdivisions (e.g., bandwidth parts (BWPs)), and this device capability is communicated during a UE capability exchange that occurs during a registration process. Core network functions provide a policy that specifies a limited channel bandwidth for a capable low-priority device to a network node of the telecommunication network to which the wireless device is communicably coupled. The network node configures the wireless device to use the limited channel bandwidth according to the policy.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and process nodes for managing bandwidth in a telecommunications network include or implement operations of receiving a connection request from a wireless communication device capable of communication in a first band having a first frequency and in a second band having a second frequency; receiving a capability report from the wireless communication device; and in response to a determination that the capability report meets a criteria, assigning the wireless communication device to communicate in the second band.

Abstract: In a method and system for performing a multi-dimensional search of video content, a displayed three-dimensional interactive grid may include a plurality of cells populated with video content in the form of named chapters and subchapters associated with each chapter, forming headers of the cells in a two-dimensional multiple column by multiple row arrangement. The cells may include containers of video content associated with each subchapter, representing the third dimension of the grid, with each container including one or more nodes of video snippets. A multi-dimensional search of the video content may be enabled to select a node and/or container. Selection may initiate a hierarchical search to display at least one or more new containers related to the selected node or container that are accessible in the presently displayed three dimensional interactive grid or in one or more different grids related to the video content of the selected node.

Abstract: The system establishes a connection to a wireless device on a cellular network. The system allocates bandwidth between a pair of coupled bandwidth resources for the wireless device. The system determines, based on usage of at least the wireless device and at least one key performance indicator (KPI), cellular network usage for a geographic area. The system calculates a usage trend over a predetermined time period. The system adjusts the allocation of bandwidth of the first bandwidth resource for the wireless device based on the usage trend. The first bandwidth resource is prioritized over the second bandwidth resource by reducing an amount of bandwidth allocated to the second bandwidth resource and proportionally increasing an amount of bandwidth allocated to the first bandwidth resource. The system readjusts the allocation of bandwidth of the first bandwidth resource for the wireless device based on an update to the usage trend.

Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for dynamically selecting network scanning rates for electronic devices. For instance, a system select a scanning rate for a mobile device to scan at. The system can access a programmable table that stores scanning rates in association with identifiers of mobile networks and/or access nodes the mobile device can connect to. The scanning rates may vary based on whether the associated mobile network is (1) associated with the mobile device (e.g., the “home” network), (2) associated with a mobile network in a partnership with the home mobile network, and (3) associated with a mobile network not in a partnership with the home mobile network. The scanning rates may also vary based on the associated access node being terrestrial (e.g., located on the surface of the earth) or extraterrestrial (e.g., located beyond the surface of the earth), such as a satellite.
