  • Patent number: 11937312
    Abstract: A serving gateway device (SGW) can cause establishment of a requested connection to a first PDN for a user device. The SGW can cause suspension of the connection to the first PDN and establishment of a requested connection to a second PDN for the user device based on a requested connection to a second PDN for a user device. The SGW can cause termination of the connection to the second PDN based on the respective end time associated with the second PDN, and cause restoration of the connection to the first PDN after the connection to the second PDN is terminated.

  • Patent number: 11564270
    Abstract: An Internet of Things (IoT) device may receive a network configuration profile including one or more parameters relating to a scan interval and a mode priority of the IoT device indicating a priority for a first IoT network over a second IoT network. The IoT device may scan for an availability of the first IoT network. Based on determining that the first IoT network is unavailable, the IoT device may scan for an availability of the second IoT network. Based on determining that the second IoT network is available, the IoT device may initiate a network connection with the second IoT network. While connected to the second IoT network, the IoT device may scan for the availability of the first IoT network. Based on determining that the first IoT network is available, the IoT device may initiate a network connection with the first IoT network.

  • Patent number: 11096240
    Abstract: A base station may cause a user equipment (UE) to be connected to a network, wherein an attach request message, that is used to connect the UE to the network, includes one or more eligibility parameters for a connection release service. The base station may determine, based on the one or more eligibility parameters, that the UE is to receive the connection release service. The base station may provide, to the UE, a connection release message that is provided based on determining that the UE is to receive the connection release service. The base station may receive, from the UE, a connection release acknowledgement message that indicates that the connection release message has been received by the UE. The base station may perform one or more actions associated with changing a state of the UE based on receiving the connection release acknowledgement message.

  • Patent number: 9762583
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed to provide protection against Unsolicited Communication (UC) in a network, such as, without limitation, an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS). A communication may originate from a sending device and may be intended for delivery to a receiving device. A network may determine authentication information associated with the sending device. The network may send the authentication information to a receiving entity to evaluate if the communication is unsolicited using the authentication information. If the communication is determined to be acceptable, a connection associated with the communication may be allowed.

  • Publication number: 20140341109
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a converged gateway (CGW) may be disclosed. A policy may be by the CGW to make routing decisions (e.g. segregation and/or aggregation of flows or traffic associated with data) for various interfaces and/or radio access technologies (RATs) that may be included in a LAN, device, and/or communication system. The policy may be locally stored within the CGW. Dynamic flow management, load balancing, offloading, PDF context establishment, prioritization, detection of devices, and the like may also be provided and/or implemented in the CG W and may be used to route flows and/or traffic associated with data.
