  • Publication number: 20260128954
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed comprising techniques for modular synthetic modeling, such as receiving a user request from a virtual world environment for transmitting data using synthetic network services of a digital twin network, determining a network user identifier of a subscribing user of a telecommunications network that is associated with a virtual user identifier of the user request, accessing a service modality configuration of the digital twin network that maps a data payload of the user request to a set of available synthetic network services, selecting a synthetic network service of the digital twin network for transmitting the data payload, transmitting the data payload of the user request via the selected synthetic network service of the digital twin network, and applying a corrective adjustment to a runtime configuration of the synthetic network service in response to at least one monitored KPI exceeding a tolerance threshold.

  • Publication number: 20260122577
    Abstract: Method and system for reducing greenhouse gas emissions of a terrestrial wireless telecommunications network are disclosed. The system monitors a current energy consumption metric of the terrestrial network, predicts an energy consumption metric of the terrestrial network in a future time period based on at least one triggering event, and determines an available capacity metric of a non-terrestrial network in the future time period. When the energy consumption metric of the terrestrial network is greater than a first threshold and the available capacity metric of the non-terrestrial network is greater than a second threshold, the system causes the terrestrial network to enter an energy conservation mode of operation by transferring a first call or a first data session from a RAN cell of the terrestrial network to the non-terrestrial network and further causes the RAN cell to enter a low power mode of operation.

  • Publication number: 20260122578
    Abstract: Devices, methods, and systems for reducing greenhouse gas emissions of a wireless network are disclosed. In one embodiment, the device can monitor network resource utilization of a RAN cell and predict its future network resource utilization based on at least one factor. The device can determine the future network resource utilization of a non-terrestrial network (NTN). When the network resource utilization of the RAN cell is less than a first threshold and network resource utilization of the NTN is less than a second threshold in the future time period, the device can initiate an energy conservation procedure. The energy conservation procedure can comprise sending an instruction to a first wireless device connected to the RAN cell to transfer a first call or a first data session from the RAN cell to the NTN and sending an instruction to the RAN cell to enter a low power mode of operation.

  • Publication number: 20250386195
    Abstract: A wireless device receives a signal from a purported non-terrestrial network (NTN) and initiates verification of the legitimacy of the purported NTN. The wireless device detects an actual angle of arrival of the signal from the purported NTN and determines an expected angle of arrival of the signal from a legitimate NTN known to the wireless device, based on the device’s current location orientation, or speed. The purported NTN is legitimate if the actual angle of arrival of the signal is within a threshold deviation of the expected angle of arrival of the signal, and the purported NTN is fraudulent if the actual angle of arrival of the signal is not within the threshold deviation of the expected angle of arrival of the signal.

  • Publication number: 20250350963
    Abstract: A system coupled to a telecommunications network is disclosed. The system receives a request to implement a configuration change on a network access node from an Operation Support System (OSS). The system determines a time window in which to implement the change based on availability of the network access node and a data model, which is built based on detected service events of wireless devices and functional dependencies with network access nodes. The time window has a period sufficient to complete the configuration change and is at a time that mitigates disruption to services for wireless devices served by the network access node. The change is orchestrated on the network access node during the time window. The orchestration is dynamically adjustable in real time based on a state of the network access node including the functional dependencies with network access nodes of the telecommunications network.

  • Publication number: 20250344067
    Abstract: The system determines a list of active telecommunication network devices at a location and measures a standard activity level for each active telecommunication network device at the location. The system generates a profile for each active telecommunication network device at the location and records the data of each profile on a blockchain. The system monitors a network for deviations from the standard activity level and detects unexpected activity at the location. The system compares the unexpected activity to the standard activity level recorded on the blockchain and determines the source of the unexpected activity based on the source's Internet Protocol address and the comparison of the unexpected activity level to the standard activity level. The system determines a list of security vulnerabilities caused by the decommissioned telecommunication network device being active on the network and executes a predetermined decommissioning procedure on the source of the unexpected activity.

  • Patent number: 12464379
    Abstract: A system of a telecommunications network comprising an automatic user equipment (UE) degradation optimization (AUDiO) Optimizer is disclosed. The AUDiO Optimizer collects network performance metrics or network events associated with a UE and retrieves a user profile that includes information indicating the network activity of the subscriber. The AUDiO Optimizer also obtains information about network events or performance metrics associated with the network. Then it determines a threshold performance degradation of the UE based on this information and, in response to the determination, performs an AUDiO action including automatically causing restart of the UE, applying a service credit to an account of the subscriber, or communicating a service degradation-related communication to the subscriber.

  • Patent number: 12401573
    Abstract: A computerized method analyzes proposed orders for network sites and generates associated order recommendations. A system configuration order (SCO) manager receives a proposed order from an ordering platform and generates a proposed site configuration using the proposed order and a current site configuration of the site. In some examples, the current site configuration is obtained from a network configuration manager associated with the site. The SCO manager generates a recommended site configuration using a configuration recommendation model and the proposed site configuration as input to the configuration recommendation model. A component difference between the recommended site configuration and the proposed site configuration is identified and an order recommendation is generated using the identified component difference. The generated order recommendation is then provided to the ordering platform.

  • Publication number: 20250142435
    Abstract: The system obtains an event report identifying a UE, and a location of the UE. The system obtains a primary service plan provided to the UE, and a second service plan, where the second service plan is available to the UE at the location of the UE. The system obtains a first measurement of a parameter indicating a first QoS provided to the UE, and a second measurement of the parameter indicating a second QoS provided to multiple UEs, where the multiple UEs are proximate to the UE. The system compares the first and the second measurement to determine whether the first QoS is lower than the second QoS. Upon determining that the first QoS is lower, the system confirms that the second service plan is likely to improve the QoS. Upon confirming, the system sends a request to change the primary service plan to the second service plan.
