Publication number: 20230308878Abstract: An access point impersonation protection system (“the system”) can scan for wireless network signals to detect a wireless network provided by a malicious access point. The system can collect a network feature associated with the wireless network. The system can analyze the network feature and can provide analysis results to a machine learning classifier. The machine learning classifier can assign a classification to the access point. The classification can be a benign classification indicative of the access point being benign. The classification can be a malicious classification indicative of the access point being malicious. The network feature can be an active time, an SSID name, a vendor, a model, a signal strength, an authentication requirement, or a combination thereof. The system can alert upon identifying a malicious access point and apply counter measures to prevent the malicious access point from causing harm to nearby devices.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 24, 2022Publication date: September 28, 2023Applicant: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Yaron Koral, Shraboni Jana, Kaustubh Joshi

Publication number: 20230292180Abstract: The disclosed technology is directed towards load balancing baseband units in a communications network. A baseband physical layer 1 unit’s functions are disaggregated into Layer 1 (L1) distributed units and radio units, instead of deploying full-fledged baseband units at a service’ provider’s service areas (cells). A load balancer scales up the number of active distributed units based on increased actual demand, and scales down the active distributed units based on decreased demand. The L1 distributed units and radio units can be software-defined network functions, and need not be collocated, whereby the distributed units can be in the cloud or hub remotely located relative to the radio units deployed at the service areas. Examples of load balancing can be load balancing of transmitted data per carrier, per subcarrier, per user equipment, per transmission time interval (TTI / slot), per bearer, or per channel.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 17, 2023Publication date: September 14, 2023Inventors: Minsung Jang, Aleksandr Zelezniak, Kaustubh Joshi

Publication number: 20230283524Abstract: Described is pooling baseband units into a hub and mapping radio units associated with the hub to baseband units of the group based on respective resource capacity data of the respective baseband units and an estimated resource usage data of a device that couples to a baseband unit. In one alternative, estimated peak resource usage data of a radio unit over an operation interval is used to select a baseband unit, generally based on which baseband unit of the pool has the least remaining resource capacity, to which the radio unit is mapped for the operation interval. In another alterative, estimated peak resource usage data resource (usage and duration) of a user equipment session is used to dynamically map the user equipment session to a baseband unit, generally selected by which baseband unit of the pool has the least remaining resource capacity.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 4, 2022Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: Gueyoung Jung, Aleksandr Zelezniak, Kaustubh Joshi, Shankaranarayanan Puzhavakath Narayanan

Publication number: 20230276354Abstract: Described is allocating and deallocating baseband unit resources of a distributed unit based on anticipated and/or actual demand for the resources. For example, when user equipment transitions to a connected state, a corresponding message can be detected and used to determine whether sufficient baseband unit resources are needed to handle the traffic of the newly connecting user equipment. If not, additional baseband unit resources are allocated. When user equipment transitions to an inactive state, the corresponding command can be detected and used to determine whether the baseband unit resources are still needed for other traffic. If not, baseband unit resources are deallocated; that is, if a distributed unit's resources are no longer needed, the distributed unit's resources are deactivated to reduce resource consumption. Deallocation can be performed by changing the resources to a power conservation (e.g., sleep) state, with allocation performed by changing such resources back to an active state.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 25, 2022Publication date: August 31, 2023Inventors: Aleksandr Zelezniak, Kaustubh Joshi, Shankaranarayanan Puzhavakath Narayanan, Gueyoung Jung

Publication number: 20230208908Abstract: A system can include a gateway, a plurality of network function nodes, and a distributed load balancer including load balancer nodes each having a flow table portion stored thereon. The load balancer nodes can form a node chain having a tail and head nodes. A load balancer node can receive a packet from the gateway. In response, the load balancer node can generate a query, directed to the tail node, that identifies the packet and a network function identifier associated with a network function node that is proposed to handle a connection. The tail node can determine whether an entry for the connection exists in a flow table portion associated with the tail node. If not, the tail node can initiate an insert request for writing the entry for the connection via the head node. The entry can then be written to all load balancer nodes in the node chain.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 6, 2023Publication date: June 29, 2023Applicant: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Abhigyan, Kaustubh Joshi, Edward Scott Daniels

Publication number: 20230209429Abstract: The described technology is generally directed towards a cellular network area optimizer. The area optimizer observes cellular network conditions at multiple radio access network (RAN) nodes within a target area.

Publication number: 20230070425Abstract: An eNodeB or other cell access point device can receive demand data from mobile devices served by the cell. The demand data can represent an estimate of demand over a future period for network resources (e.g., bandwidth). The cell can aggregate this demand data and determine aggregation data for the time period or for various intervals of the time period, then transmit the aggregation data to the mobile devices. The aggregation data can operate as a collaborative approach to scheduling traffic. For example, data (e.g., delay tolerant data) can be shifted (e.g., delayed for a few seconds) based on an examination of the aggregation data in conjunction a determined priority of the data. Such can be applicable to data traffic not traditionally thought of as delay tolerant such as streaming video or web browsing, and can be accomplished without negatively impacting the quality of service or experience of the client.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 11, 2022Publication date: March 9, 2023Inventors: Kaustubh Joshi, Rajesh Krishna Panta, Cong Shi
