Abstract: System for monitoring of IoT data traffic between an IoT device connected via a cellular network and a server using Internet Protocol (IP), where the IP addresses are dynamically assigned and thus do not identify the devices. The system uses a device on the cellular network that extracts cellular identification of an IoT device involved in a data communication session and IP identification of the data communication session. The device matches the cellular identification with the IP identification. A database has device security profiles for IoT devices which can be retrieved per device via the cellular identification. Then, an enforcement unit identifies the session using the IP address and allows traffic only if the traffic conforms with the device security profile which was retrieved using the cellular identification.

Abstract: Component for insertion into a cellular communication network to reduce redundant signaling on the network or between the network and other networks, comprises: an extractor, to extract signaling passing the insertion point towards a destination, modify the signaling and reinsert the signaling for sending onwards. The extractor comprises a signal part remover to remove a part determined to be present at the destination; and an inserter for inserting a flag into the signaling to indicate the removal. The modified signal is sent on to the destination where a complementary component reads the flag and reinserts the extracted part from a database of its own. Location update activity often involves redundant transfer of user profiles, which the components herein can save.

Abstract: CSFallback controller allows a long term evolution (LTE) supporting telephone handset to communicate over a network that does not support LTE voice calls, using circuit-switch fallback (CSFallback). The CSFallback controller comprises a visited side signaling output to provide visited side signaling to respond to a mobile terminated call to an mobile handset supporting LTE by locating said handset and an MSC currently serving said handset, using an emulation of HLR signaling for locating the handset and the MSC and a home side signaling output, to provide home side signaling to an HLR associated with the handset. The home side signaling is an emulation of signaling from a serving MSC. The controller transfers the call for handling by the identified currently serving MSC.

Abstract: The invention provides a method and a system for enabling communication with a device (206) of a party operating in a hybrid network. The hybrid network combines an Internet-protocol based network (202) and a non-internet-protocol based network (203), wherein the device is an Internet-protocol based device (206). The method includes contacting a first registry being (209) a member in the non-Internet-protocol based network (203) for registering the device in the non-internet-protocol based network. The method also includes contacting a second registry (210) being a member in the Internet-protocol based network (202), for registering the device in the Internet-protocol based network.

Abstract: A system installed at a roaming mobile network, comprises: a signaling relay enabled to monitor, intercept and modify mobile network signaling messages between the roaming network and the home network, a controller application for the signaling relay, said controller configured to instruct the signaling relay to replace an identity of a roaming user with a local network subscriber identity, thereby to enable registration of the roaming user with the local network for receiving at least one local mobile service as a local user, the roamer retaining a pre-existing registration with a respective home mobile network for receiving at least one other roaming mobile service, wherein authentication of the mobile device with the roaming network uses authentication data of the home network registration.

Abstract: Apparatus for local access to data while roaming with a mobile telephony device at a roaming network. The apparatus is located at the roaming network and comprises a filter having a data packet or packet header inspection unit for inspecting packet information or headers to identify data packets addressed from the roaming telephony device for use via a home network data packet gateway, and a packet diverter for diverting at least some of the identified packets to a local data packet gateway; the filter setting up a diversion tunnel for additional packets of the same session for directly routing all packets of the identified session to the local data packet gateway. Mobile devices are today programmed to send data to their home network for browsing via the home network data packet gateway. The filter allows data to be redirected to the roaming network so that Internet browsing and like data uses can be carried out directly by the roaming user at less cost and greater efficiency and quality of service.

Abstract: Apparatus located at a first mobile telephony network, said network comprising a detector for detecting at least one of roaming registration signals and session management signals of roaming mobile telephony users of said first mobile telephony network who are roaming at another mobile telephony networks; and an analytics unit, associated with said detector, for analyzing said detected signals per individual roaming users, and identifying, from said signals, any one of a plurality of predefined cost saving behaviors of respective individual roaming users. The analytics unit provides an identification output for any of said individual roaming users who is identified to be engaging in one of said predefined cost saving behaviors.

Abstract: Gateway apparatus for interworking between source and destination communication networks, to solve issues of absence of mutual recognition between the source and destination networks when communication within the networks uses internet protocol (IP). The apparatus comprises a source network front end emulator for emulating front end IP server components of the source network to the destination network; and a destination network front end emulator for emulating front end IP server components of the destination network to the source network. The apparatus, by virtue of the emulators, mediates communications between the source and destination networks.

Abstract: A client for inclusion in a mobile telephony apparatus barred from international roaming usage, to allow roaming operation thereof according to conditions determined at a home network, the client being configured with: an activation unit configured to switch said client between active and passive states, and a call control unit, operative in said active state, to communicate with a predetermined node at said home network, to facilitate control of said mobile telephony apparatus using said home network determined conditions. There is also provided a server component at the home network to support the client. The system allows CAMEL type services when a prepaid roaming user is roaming in a non-CAMEL enabled network, and even allows these services to be provided when the home network lacks CAMEL enablement.
