Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for implementing differentiated mobility schemes are provided. In an example, a communication device may be identified as being connected with a first base station. A selection criterion may be identified based upon a characteristic associated with the communication device. A mobility scheme may be selected from a set of mobility schemes based upon the selection criterion. One or more thresholds of the mobility scheme may be communicated to the communication device.

Abstract: A method for fraud control of a transaction account based on geolocation includes: storing, in an account database, an account profile including data related to a transaction account including a first profile rule associated with a first geographic area and a second profile rule associated with a second geographic area different from the first; receiving an authorization request for a first transaction involving a first payment card, the request including a first geographic location; receiving an authorization request for a second transaction involving a second payment card, the request including a second geographic location; determining validation for each authorization request, wherein each is determined to be valid if the geographic location is in a geographic area corresponding to the first geographic area or the second geographic area; and transmitting the determination of validation for each authorization request to a payment network for processing of the associated payment transaction.

Abstract: A method for determining a confidence level for provisioning of a token to a mobile device includes: storing device fingerprint data associated with a mobile device; receiving location data, the data including geographic locations of the mobile device; receiving a confidence level request, the request including a supplied device fingerprint and current location of the mobile device; identifying an area of validity for the mobile device based on the geographic locations; identifying an area of validity for the transaction account based on a location associated with each of a plurality of transactions involving the account; identifying a confidence level based on a correspondence between the supplied device fingerprint and the stored device fingerprint data, the current location and the area of validity for the mobile device, and the current location and the area of validity for the transaction account; and transmitting the confidence level for the confidence level request.

Abstract: A method of operating a predictive data cache includes receiving a request for telematics service from a telematics service requester, determining the subject matter of the request, querying a predictive data cache to determine if the predictive data cache includes a service response to the subject matter of the request and, if the predictive data cache includes the service response, then providing the service response to the requester and updating the predictive data cache using the subject matter of the request. The subject matter can include one or more of: an event description, an event period, or an event location based on the request.

Abstract: A system and a method for improving wireless communications between a call center and a vehicle. The system and method can reduce the number of wireless connections needed between a call center and a vehicle by using multimedia messaging service (MMS) messages to convey information therebetween. This obviates the need for the call center to make an initial wireless connection simply to alert the vehicle that it wishes to communicate. Instead, the system and method can convey information or push down content to the vehicle on a very first connection, which can reduce wireless connections and improve reliability.

Abstract: A method for managing data transmissions in a subscriber pool involves receiving a telematics unit call at a call center on a channel other than a packet data channel, and from the call and at the call center, recognizing that the packet data channel is unavailable in a predetermined coverage region. A notification is transmitted to the telematics unit and/or to a plurality of telematics units in the predetermined coverage region indicating that the packet data channel is unavailable for a predetermined time. In response to the notification, a vehicle data upload setting is reset in the telematics unit and/or each of the plurality of telematics units to an alternate channel such that primary connection attempts made by the telematics unit and/or each of the plurality of telematics units are via the alternate channel during the predetermined time. A system for managing such data transmissions is also disclosed.
