Abstract: A mobile vehicle communications system and a method of using that system to provide over-the-air (OTA) data from a vehicle backend system to a target vehicle. The method includes the steps of: receiving wireless carrier system (WCS)-associated data from a plurality of vehicles that are associated with the backend system; in response to the receiving step, determining a preferred geographic communication region from among a plurality of geographic communication regions, wherein the determination includes determining that the preferred geographic communication region meets or exceeds a quality of service (QoS) threshold that at least some of the remaining plurality of geographic communication regions do not meet or exceed; and in response to the determining step, transmitting the OTA data from the backend system to the target vehicle when the target vehicle is within the preferred geographic communication region.

Abstract: A system and method of provisioning a wireless device that uses cellular communication protocols. The method carried out by the system includes: establishing a wireless communications session with the wireless device at a remote facility; transmitting provisioning information from the remote facility to the wireless device via the wireless communications session; and including a computer readable instruction with the provisioning information commanding the wireless device to contact the remote facility when the wireless communications session has been interrupted and the transmission of provisioning information is not complete.
