  • Patent number: 10264485
    Abstract: A device may: receive, from a first network device, an indication that a user equipment device (UE) has established an Internet Protocol (IP) session through a network; subscribe to a notification service, at the first network device, that indicates whether the UE is reachable; determine that quality-of-service (QoS) for the UE needs to be modified; send a first request, to the first network device, to modify a bearer for the UE in response to the determination that the QoS for the UE needs to be modified; receive a first reply, from the first network device, that the QoS for the UE has failed because the UE is unreachable; receive a notification, from the notification service at the first network device, that the UE is reachable; determine whether the QoS for the UE still needs to be modified in response to the notification; and send a second request to the first network device in response to determining whether the QoS for the UE still needs to be modified.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8848562
    Abstract: A method includes receiving an indication of current quality of service for a transmission received by user equipment from a base station. The method includes identifying target quality of service values for the transmission. A current FEC value and a current MCS value is identified for the transmission. An adjusted FEC value and an adjusted MCS value is determined based on the current FEC value and the current MCS value, the indication of current quality of service, and the target quality of service values. The method includes outputting the adjusted FEC value to a broadcast multicast service center for the transmission. The method also includes outputting the adjusted MCS value to the base station.
