  • Patent number: 10172045
    Abstract: A system and method for implementing fallback on a wireless device for circuit switched fallback from a first network that does not provide a circuit switched domain service is presented. A paging message is received from the first network. The paging message instructs the wireless device to implement circuit switched fallback to a circuit switched network. The paging message is inspected for information indicative of a service associated with the paging message, and a channel type suitable for the service is determined from the information indicative of the service. A request message for initiating the establishment of a radio connection is transmitted. The request message identifies the suitable channel type, and the service is used on the circuit switched network.

  • Publication number: 20180310270
    Abstract: A method for improving reliability of Voice over LTE (VoLTE)/Video over LTE (ViLTE) calls includes detecting, by a User Equipment (UE) camped on a first Radio Access Technology (RAT), a problem with a radio connection on the first RAT at a first time. After detecting the problem with the radio connection, the UE blocks Non-Access Stratum (NAS) registration on a second RAT in a time period between the first time and a second time later than the first time. The second RAT is different than the first RAT.

  • Patent number: 9642030
    Abstract: Some aspects of what is described here relate to systems, devices, and computer-implemented methods for capturing data related to a mobile device in a wireless network. In one example, a method may include receiving, at a mobile device, data capture configuration information from a wireless network, the data capture configuration information indicating a data type to be captured from the mobile device in an off-network environment. Thereafter, in response to detecting the off-network environment at the mobile device, a data element is stored in a local memory of the mobile device. The data element corresponds to the data type indicated by the data capture configuration information. The data element is sent to the wireless network, for instance, when the mobile device has access to the wireless network.

  • Patent number: 9622160
    Abstract: Some aspects of what is described here relate to systems, devices, and computer-implemented methods for capturing data related to a mobile device in a wireless network. In one example, a method may include receiving, at a first mobile device, data capture configuration information from a wireless network. The data capture configuration information indicates a target mobile device from which data is to be captured during group communication between the first mobile device and the target mobile device. Thereafter, in response to detecting a group communication between the first mobile device and the target mobile device, a data element is stored in a local memory of the first mobile device. The data element includes information from the group communication between the first mobile device and the target mobile device. The data element is sent to the wireless network.
