Abstract: Methods, media, and systems are provided for dynamic session trace management for user equipment (UE). For example, a first node is identified for a first UE, the first node being associated with a default trace processor. In some embodiments, the first node is identified based on a setup communication with the first UE. A trace profile for the first UE may generated. The trace profile may indicate a primary trace processor for the first UE. Based on the default trace processor of the first node being different than the primary trace processor, the first node is instructed to utilize the primary trace processor for trace reports associated with the first UE. In some embodiments, the primary trace processor may identify a location for the first UE using the trace reports. The trace reports may be received from a plurality of nodes and maintained by the primary trace processor.

Abstract: Detecting and remediating fraud on a wireless communications network is described. Trace reports corresponding to nodes and user equipment may be received. Two or more user equipment and associated with a common user may be indicative of fraud. Two or more user equipment may be instructed to identify their precise location, such as via a minimization of drive-testing system of the node and/or UE. Upon receiving a first precise location associated with a first user equipment and a second precise location associated with a second user equipment, and accessing a historical record of the common user, a comparison may be performed. Based upon this, one or more user equipment may be identified as fraudulent. Various remedial actions may be instructed related to at least one of the first node or the first user equipment.

Abstract: A system for updating a preferred nodes list for a wireless device in a wireless network includes a server in communication with a plurality of nodes each configured to deploy a radio air interface to provide wireless services to wireless devices. The server includes a processor configured to instruct, in response to a trigger, a first node to send a message to a wireless device connected to the first node. The message instructs the wireless device to contact the server for an updated preferred nodes list. The processor receives a request for the updated preferred nodes list from the wireless device, and provides the updated preferred nodes list to the wireless device. The updated preferred nodes list enables the wireless device to change from connecting to the first node included in the preferred nodes list to connecting to a second node included in the updated preferred nodes list.

Abstract: A method, system, and media are provided for transmitting messages to a recipient through a communications network. Network condition measurements are obtained and communication gateways that execute temporal shifting agents are identified. A message is received from a first device and a header of the message is parsed to determine that (i) a temporal shifting message is being received and (ii) a second version of content is contained within the temporal shifting message. Upon parsing the temporal shifting message, embodiments update a previously stored first version of content with the second version of content. The second version of content is then transmitted to the recipient based on the obtained measurements for network conditions.

The RE transfers RF test results for the geographic azimuths to the wireless communication network.

Abstract: A user's access to online content is controlled based at least in part on the type of access network utilized to access the content. When a request is received from a user via an access network to access online content, the access-network type and the content type are determined. A determination of a portion of the content to communicate to the user is made based on one or more policies that control access to the identified content type when transmitted via the identified access-network type, and the determined portion of the content is communicated to the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide for triggering an action based on detection of one or more user devices. One or more signals from at least one user device are detected by at least one sensor in a target area. A sensor can be in operable communication with a location server to which the signals are relayed. Based on the signals detected, a determination is made as to whether the one or more signals exceed a predetermined threshold for signal strength in the target area. Based on a set of signals exceeding the predetermined threshold for signal strength, the location server triggers an action that corresponds to the target area.

Abstract: A wireless relay controls wireless scanning in a wireless data communication network. The wireless relay performs a 360-degree wireless signal scan, and attaches to a source wireless access point responsive to the wireless signal scan. The wireless relay reports results from the wireless signal scan to a relay information server responsive to the attachment. The wireless relay receives attachment data from the relay information server responsive to the reporting. If the wireless relay loses connectivity to the source wireless access point, then the wireless relay determines reattachment attributes based on the attachment data, and performs another wireless signal scan based on the reattachment attributes.
