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.

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.

Abstract: The wireless device transmits, using a message session relay protocol (MSRP), a request to a network node of a telecommunication network. The request indicates a content type of RCS poll on a telecommunication network. The request includes poll text and a poll type. The request for an RCS poll causes a display of the RCS poll via a messaging interface native to an operating system of the wireless device. The wireless device generates the request in an extensible markup language format. The poll text includes a question and at least two responses. The poll type includes a single-choice response or a multi-choice response poll. The wireless device receives, using the MSRP, from the network node, a poll response. The poll response causes a display of the poll response via the messaging interface native to the operating system of the wireless device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for proactive sleeping cell detection and mitigation. Aspects herein proactively detect when network cells are degrading based on cell performance metrics comprising cell signal, cell utilization, etc. When cells are identified as degrading but not yet classified as a sleeping cell, proactive traffic re-allocation can be initiated such that traffic of the degrading cell is transferred to a different cell. Once the traffic is re-allocated (i.e., all traffic of the degrading cell has been moved off of the degrading cell), corrective action(s) can be initiated to prevent the cell from continued degradation and future classification as a sleeping cell. Upon completion of the corrective action(s), the traffic can be moved back to what was the initial cell that was previously degrading.

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.

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.

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.

Abstract: Described herein are techniques, devices, and systems for utilizing subscriber and user equipment (UE) related content to generate limitations of rich communications service (RCS) capabilities as antispam security measures. The RCS capabilities limitations can be utilized to strip RCS capabilities from possible malicious UEs. The UEs can be identified as the possible malicious UEs by scanning telecommunications networks for behavior of the UEs that is identified as being possible malicious behavior. Stripping the RCS capabilities can include downgrading capabilities of the possible malicious UEs from RCS capabilities to short messaging service (SMS)/multimedia messaging service (MMS) capabilities. Communications associated with the possible malicious UEs being identified as malicious UEs can be monitored and analyzed to restrict communication of communications identified as malicious messages.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for preventing user equipment from communicating with non-approved third-party sites, such as simulators or IMSI catchers. Using criteria to determine whether signals are associated with approved sources, such as a base station, or non-approved sources, such as bad actors, embodiments are able to identify bad actors and prohibit attempted connections. User equipment (UE) can use a blacklist, or graylist, of sites to avoid, which conserves time and resources. Because a UE avoids third-party sites, the UE communicates with approved network devices and is able to successfully access emergency services.

Abstract: System and methods for modifying terrestrial coverage devices to provide mobile network coverage using information provided by one or more non-terrestrial coverage devices. Information gathered by one or more NTC devices (e.g., satellites) about user equipment (UE) serviced or detected by the NTC devices may be used by a mobile network to modify one or more characteristics of terrestrial coverage (TC) devices (e.g., base stations). A coverage agent receives UE information gathered about one or more UEs serviced or detected by the NTC device and provides the UE information to a coverage analyzer. The coverage analyzer uses the UE information to determine if partial or full network coverage can be shifted from the NTC device to the TC device by reconfiguring the TC device, potentially offloading some of the workload handled by the NTC device onto the TC device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for mitigating malicious attacks by IMSI-catchers. IMSI-catchers act as “fake” towers to intercept mobile device traffic and obtain private user data. These unauthorized devices pose a serious risk to user privacy. Aspects herein detect the presence of IMSI-catchers using RF footprints of cell sites to detect changes in RF footprint metrics that indicate the presence of IMSI-catchers. Once detected, beamforming techniques can be used to target a specific area surrounding the IMSI-catcher with a high-powered beamform that emits at a power level higher than the IMSI-catcher in order to reacquire any user devices that may have unknowingly connected to the IMSI-catcher.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for automatic PLMN serving system reselection based on E911 PSAP termination failures. For example, a UE may initiate a call for emergency services on a network provided by a cell site simulator. When the connection fails, metrics corresponding to the termination failure are communicated to the PLMN the next time the UE connects to a legitimate network. The fraudulent cell sites may be communicated by the UE to other UEs via peer-to-peer communication and/or added to an FPLMN list to prevent other UEs from connecting to networks provided by the fraudulent cell sites.
