Abstract: A wireless communication network uses Multi-User Multiple Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO). Network circuitry stores geographic data that indicates geographic containers. Transceiver circuitry wirelessly receives network signaling from User Equipment (UEs) located in the geographic containers. The network circuitry processes the network signaling to determine UE MU-MIMO correlation factors between the UEs and associate the UE MU-MIMO correlation factors with the geographic containers. The network circuitry processes the UE MU-MIMO correlation factors associated with the geographic containers to determine container MU-MIMO correlation factors between the geographic containers. The network circuitry selects UEs for MU-MIMO based on their container MU-MIMO correlation factors. The transceiver circuitry wirelessly transfers MU-MIMO signals to the UEs that were selected based on their container MU-MIMO correlation factors.

Abstract: A wireless communication network serve User Equipment (UEs) over Fifth Generation New Radio (5GNR) and Long Term Evolution (LTE). A 5GNR access node receive user data for wireless delivery to the UEs and splits the user data into LTE and 5GNR portions. The 5GNR access node transfers the 5GNR portion to the UEs over 5GNR links and transfers the LTE portion to an LTE access node over X2 links. The LTE access node transfers the LTE portion to the UEs over LTE links. The 5GNR access node identifies X2 link quality. When the X2 link experiences low quality, the 5GNR access node transfers user data to the UEs over 5GNR links without splitting the data to LTE. When the X2 link status has adequate quality, then the 5GNR access node starts splitting user data to LTE again.

Abstract: A Long Term Evolution (LTE) access node to serve User Equipment (UEs) with a wireless Carrier Aggregation (CA) data communication service. A data processing system schedules CA Primary Component Carriers (PCCs), CA intra-band Secondary Component Carriers (SCCs) and CA inter-band SCCs for the UEs. A wireless transceiver wirelessly exchanges user data with the UEs based on the scheduling to serve the UEs with the CA PCCs, the CA intra-band SCCs, and the CA inter-band SCCs. The data processing system detects that a number of the UEs exceeds a UE threshold, and in response, identifies the UEs that use an LTE channel for their CA inter-band SCCs but not for their CA PCCs. The data processing system disables the LTE channel for the UEs that use the LTE channel for their CA inter-band SCCs but not for their CA PCCs.

Abstract: A wireless access point controls Discontinuous Reception (DRX) parameters for User Equipment (UE). The wireless access point wirelessly exchanges wireless communications with a plurality of UEs comprising High Power UEs (HPUEs) and non-HPUEs. The wireless access point determines a number of the HPUEs and determines a number non-HPUEs experiencing RF interference above an RF interference threshold. The wireless access point compares the number of non-HPUEs experiencing RF interference above the RF interference threshold to the number of HPUEs and when the number of non-HPUEs experiencing RF interference above the RF interference threshold exceeds the number of HPUEs, then the wireless access point modifies the DRX parameters for the HPUEs to a low DRX parameter setting. The wireless access point wirelessly transmits an instruction to the HPUEs indicating the modification of the DRX parameters for the HPUEs to the low DRX parameter setting.

The wireless access point exchanges wireless communications with a plurality of User Equipment (UEs) comprising Device-to-Base Station (D2BS) UEs and D2D UEs, determines geographical locations for each of the D2BS UEs and the D2D UEs, and processes the geographical locations for each of the D2BS UEs and the D2D UEs with a neighbor distance threshold to identify which of the D2BS UEs neighbors the D2D UEs and which of the D2BS UEs do not neighbor the D2D UEs. The wireless access point monitors a Radio Frequency (RF) interference for the neighbor D2BS UEs and the non-neighbor D2BS UEs, determines that a difference between the RF interference of the neighbor UEs and the non-neighbor D2BS UEs is above an RF interference threshold, and transmits an instruction to the D2D UEs neighboring the neighbor D2BS UEs to decrease a transmission power amount.

Abstract: Systems and methods of operating multimode 3G/4G communications devices in an overlapping 3G/4G coverage area (e.g., WiMAX or LTE/CDMA-EvDO) include determining a loading condition of the 3G and 4G base stations. If the 3G and 4G base stations are lightly loaded, one or more 4G Channel Quality Indicators (CQI) are compared with one or more corresponding 3G Data Rate Control (DRC) indices to determine which of the 3G and 4G networks allows a higher data throughput. The dual mode communications device is handed off to a 4G base station associated with the 4G coverage if the 4G network allows the higher data throughput; otherwise, the dual mode communications device is handed off to a 3G base station. User priorities, application categories, and/or MIMO and diversity modes may be used to determine handoff if the base stations are more than lightly loaded.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for using DRCLocks for conducting call admission control. In an embodiment, an access node provides service to a plurality of access terminals on a carrier in a coverage area, where the plurality of access terminals does not include a first access terminal. The access node receives a request for new service on the carrier in the coverage area from the first access terminal over an air interface, and responsively determines whether an aggregate-DRCLock condition is met. If the aggregate-DRCLock condition is met, the access node denies the request for new service.

Abstract: A method includes communicating data to a plurality of user equipment (UE) in a cell using a plurality of beamforms. Each of the plurality of beamforms has a main lobe and side lobes, where the main lobe is directed toward a corresponding UE of the plurality of UE. For each beamform of the plurality of beamforms, a position of the beamform is determined. Furthermore, it is determined that one or more small cells of the plurality of small cells are available to serve the corresponding UE based on determining that the one or more small cells are positioned within the main lobe of the beamform using the determined position of the beamform and one or more positions of the one or more small cells. Based on the one or more small cells being determined as available to serve the corresponding UE, beamforming is disabled to the corresponding UE from the cell, thereby preventing the side lobes of the beamform from interfering with other radio communications in the cell.

The access node measures, over at least the packet-data network, each packet-transport metric in a set of one or more packet-transport metrics. The access node sets a DRCLock for at least one of the access terminals based at least in part on the one or more measured packet-transport metrics.

Abstract: Systems and methods of operating multimode 3G/4G communications devices in an overlapping 3G/4G coverage area (e.g., WiMAX or LTE/CDMA EvDO) include determining if a number associated with temporarily-disabled sectors of an available sector set of the multimode device while the device is operational with a 3G base station is at least equal to a threshold number. If the number is at least equal to the threshold number, a scan for a sector in the 4G network to handover the operation of the multimode device from the 3G base station associated with the 3G coverage to a 4G base station associated with the 4G coverage is initiated. A scan for a fixed period of time for a new available sector in the 3G network to be added in the available sector set may be initiated; and, if a new available sector is added to the sector set, it may be redetermined if the number associated with the temporarily-disabled sectors is at least equal to the threshold number, before initiating the scan for a sector in the 4G network.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for receiving at a network gateway a message generated in response to a content request, wherein the content request was generated by a client device in response to invocation of an invalid bookmarked link on a browser.
