Publication number: 20240040342Abstract: A system and method are described that are carried out by a mobility management component for providing enhanced short message service (SMS) memory handling in the absence of a user equipment (UE) signaling capability to indicate that an SMS memory is available after the UE issues a signal indicating an SMS memory unavailable error condition to the mobility management component. The method includes receiving the signal indicating an SMS memory unavailable error condition from the UE. In accordance with receiving the signal, an SMS memory error condition timer is set for the UE and issues an SMS memory failure message to temporarily cause suspension of sending SMS messages, via a short message service center (SMSC), to the UE. In response to expiration of a time period after the setting the SMS memory error condition timer, the mobility management component issues an SMS memory available message to resume SMS message delivery to the UE.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 27, 2022Publication date: February 1, 2024Inventors: Vyacheslav Lemberg, Narothum Saxena, Michael S.

Patent number: 10887857Abstract: An affective computing server (ACS) is described herein that is incorporated into a mobile wireless network management infrastructure. The ACS is configured to carry out a method over a mobile wireless network for maintaining a comfort status of a user of a wearable device. The ACS registers the wearable device associated with the user. The ACS receives, via a mobile wireless technology link, a user comfort status profile (UCSP) message issued by the wearable device, where the UCSP message includes at least a parameter value indicative of the comfort status of the user. The ACS processes the UCSP message to render a comfort control request based upon the UCSP. The ACS causes a sending of the comfort control request over a mobile wireless technology to an actuator (e.g. a heating/air conditioning system) for affecting a change in the comfort status of the user of the wearable device.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2018Date of Patent: January 5, 2021Assignee: United States Cellular CorporationInventors: Sebastian Thalanany, Narothum Saxena, Michael S.

Patent number: 10880763Abstract: A computer-automated maintaining a physical configuration of an antenna operating within radio access network (RAN) of a mobile wireless network is described. A feature subset of a covering set of features for the antenna is specified. A centroid is generated for the antenna, wherein the centroid comprises a current long-term values of the feature subset obtained by processing multiple data sets for the feature subset over a relatively long time period. An antenna change detection decision is rendered, wherein the rendering an antenna change detection decision comprises first applying a current short-term values of the feature subset, which are representative of a current status of the antenna, to the centroid to render a current distance from centroid. In accordance with detecting an antenna change event during the applying, an antenna change event notification is issued that corresponds to the detected antenna change event.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2020Date of Patent: December 29, 2020Assignee: United States Cellular CorporationInventors: Mario Vela, David Brent Amos, Michael Reed Hobson, Kenneth Wotring, Zachary Wozich, Michael S.
