  • Patent number: 11736432
    Abstract: A wireless User Equipment (UE) generate a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) message that comprises a SIP header and a user message. The SIP header indicates a priority QoS and the user message indicates a message destination. The wireless UE wirelessly transfers the SIP message to a wireless network and the wireless network transfers the SIP message to a message network. In response to the priority QoS indicated in the SIP header, the message network generates and transfers another SIP message using the priority QoS. The other SIP message comprises another SIP header and the user message.

  • Patent number: 11140117
    Abstract: A wireless communication device transfer a high-priority message with a high-priority Quality-of-Service (QoS). Device circuitry receives a request for the high-priority message, and in response, signals a radio to wirelessly attach to a wireless network using a high-priority-attachment Establishment Cause. The circuitry generates a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) message that includes the high-priority message and that indicates the high-priority-attachment Establishment Cause. The radio wirelessly attaches to the wireless network using the high-priority-attachment Establishment Cause. The radio wirelessly transfers the SIP message that indicates the high-priority-attachment Establishment Cause and that includes the high-priority message to the wireless network. The wireless network transfers the SIP message to a message network using the high-priority QoS responsive to the high-priority-attachment Establishment Cause used for wireless attachment.

  • Patent number: 9363656
    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein provide systems, methods, and software for monitoring wireless communication devices within a geographic area of interest. In one example, a method of operating a location analytics system includes identifying a geographic area of interest. The method further includes identifying wireless sectors within the geographic area of interest, and identifying wireless communication devices within the wireless sectors. The method also includes generating mapping information for the geographic area of interest based on the identification of the wireless communication devices, and providing the mapping information to emergency action system to provide information to the devices.

  • Patent number: 7703142
    Abstract: An authorization system is described that includes a first interface, a processing system, and a second interface. The first interface is configured to receive an authorization instruction from an enterprise and receive an authorization request from a user device. The authorization instructions indicate authorization parameters. The user device transfers the authorization request each time the application is selected for execution. The authorization instructions are based on a license obtained by the enterprise for an application and wherein a user device operated by a user has the application. The processing system is configured to process the authorization request and authorization parameters to determine if the execution of the application is authorized. The second interface is configured to transfer an authorized message to the user device if the execution of the application is authorized and transfer an unauthorized message to the user device if the execution of the application is not authorized.

  • Patent number: 7310659
    Abstract: An instant message (IM) interface configured to extend a target application over an IM link of a communication network is provided according to the invention. The IM interface includes a communication interface configured to transfer a reply IM to an originating application. The IM interface further includes a processing system configured to obtain data from the target application and provide an output form to a messaging Application Programming Interface (messaging API). The output form is provided from a set of Forms Definition Language (FDL) forms. The messaging API is substantially protocol-dependent and the set of FDL forms is protocol-independent. The processing system is further configured to generate the reply IM in an originating application protocol using the data, the output form, and one or more protocol-specific libraries of the messaging API. The reply IM is an originating application protocol-specific IM.
