  • Publication number: 20240129056
    Abstract: A base station can select orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) numerologies that define subcarrier spacing values based on attributes associated with one or more services that a user equipment (UE) is using. The base station can use the selected OFDM numerologies for transmission associated with the services. When the UE is using multiple services simultaneously, the base station can select the same or different OFDM numerologies for the multiple services.

  • Patent number: 11924669
    Abstract: A slice manager associated with a network access point of a telecommunication network can manage combinations of network slices and bandwidth parts for user equipment (UE). The bandwidth parts can have independently set numerologies, such as subcarrier spacing values. The UE can be configured to use one or more active bandwidth parts at a time, such that the slice manager can instruct the UE to use multiple active bandwidth parts simultaneously with respect to the same network slice or multiple network slices.

  • Publication number: 20240064525
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media herein provide for adjustment of a spectrum sharing allocation between devices operating on 5G and/or 6G technologies. An inter-operator scheduler receives common signals associated with 5G and/or 6G devices and determines time and/or frequency divisions and configurations to a shared technology spectrum to allocate spectrum resources. In response to determining an allocation of the shared spectrum, the shared spectrum can be efficiently shared among 5G and 6G devices in a dynamic and flexible manner.

  • Patent number: 11902961
    Abstract: Various systems, methods, and devices relate to determining a delay associated with a device; calculating a guard time based at least in part on the delay; and scheduling a wireless resource to include a downlink interval, an uplink interval, and the guard time between the downlink interval and the uplink interval. By calculating the guard time based at least in part on the delay associated with the device, spectrum efficiency can be enhanced, and latency can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 11902862
    Abstract: A service type symbol may be presented on a display of a communication device to indicate a type of service supported or unsupported on the communication device over a network to which the communication device is presently connected. The communication device may determine a value of a parameter, may determine, based at least in part on the value of the parameter, a service type symbol from a set of multiple different service type symbols to present on a display of the communication device, and may present the symbol on the display. Service type symbols might include, among others, a video symbol corresponding to a video streaming service, a voice symbol corresponding to a voice calling service, a basic data symbol corresponding to a basic data service.

  • Publication number: 20230336949
    Abstract: Systems and methods for registering a location tracking device affixed to an item or other merchandise with a cellular or mobile network provider associated with the purchaser are described herein. In some cases, user equipment in physical proximity to the location tracking device may establish a connection with the location tracking device to facilitate the registration process between the network provider and the location tracking device. Once the registration is complete, the location tracking device may establish a direct connection with the cellular or mobile network of the network provider such that the network provider is able to monitor the location of the location tracking device.

  • Patent number: 11792694
    Abstract: When initiating a Voice-over-IP (VoIP) communication session between an originating device (MO) and a terminating device (MT) on a packet-switched network, network components associated with the MO may encounter a failure when preparing resources for the session, such as a failure to establish a dedicated bearer with the MO. This might typically cause the system to abort the session. Instead, the network components are configured to detect the failure and to initiate a handover to a circuit-switched communication network so that the session may be conducted through the circuit-switched communication network. The failure may be detected by a component of a Long-Term Evolution (LTE) Radio Access Network (RAN) of the network, by a Mobility Management Entity (MME) of the network, or by some other network component. Single Radio Voice Call Continuity (SRVCC) procedures may be used to implement the handover.

  • Publication number: 20230319658
    Abstract: System and methods for smart cell selection and reselection are described. A mobile device may attempt to camp on a cell in a tracking area that has advertised a particular frequency band. If the mobile device is unable to recognize an information element identifying a different subset of the advertised frequency band than that supported by the mobile device, the mobile device will store a record of the tracking area and the advertised frequency band and compare future cell information broadcasts to the entry, avoiding attempts to operate within cells in the same tracking area advertising the same frequency. In this way the mobile device conserves resources by avoiding actions in incompatible cells and avoids storing information about many cells by only storing the tracking area information.

  • Patent number: 11729798
    Abstract: Determining when to display a Fifth Generation (5G) service indicator is described herein. In an example, a network can compare capabilities supported by a user equipment (UE) with capabilities available to the UE (e.g., in a geographic area of the UE) to determine whether the UE can display the 5G service indicator. In some examples, such capabilities can be determined based at least in part on E-UTRAN New Radio-Dual Connectivity (EN-DC) combinations of frequency bands.

  • Patent number: 11664923
    Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques that enable a Radio Frequency (RF) signal controller and optional digital signal translator to use the existing telecommunication infrastructure of a business or residential establishment to deliver wireless communication services to the business or residential establishment. The data signal controller may transceive a first data signal via a first signal interface, determine if/how to process the first data signal to generate a second data signal that is suitable to be transported into the establishment via legacy telecommunications infrastructure.
