Abstract: A system, method, and node providing a predefined Quality of Service (QoS) level to an Over The Top (OTT) service provider in a telecommunications network. A User Equipment (UE) initiates an IP-based application session (e.g., Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) session) with the OTT service provider by sending an application-dependent message toward an OTT application server. The method begins with a proxy node in the telecommunications network intercepting the application-dependent message. The proxy node then modifies the application-dependent message by adding a subscriber identification to the header of the application-dependent message. The proxy node forwards the modified application-dependent message to the OTT application server. The OTT application server then sends a request having the subscriber identification to the telecommunications network with a QoS requirement for the HTTP session. Next, a network policy node determines an appropriate QoS level for the subscriber.

Abstract: A Media Proxy, method, and Emergency Notification Service (ENS) system for providing emergency media content during an emergency to end-user devices currently engaged in active media sessions in a service provider's wireless or wireline network. The Media Proxy interrupts all currently active media sessions of all users located in the geographic area of an active emergency and inserts relevant emergency data such as detailed broadcast video or audio alerts by replacing the media in the currently active session with the emergency data.

Abstract: A system, method and node of providing identity correlation for an Over The Top (OTT) service in a telecommunications network. The method includes the steps of providing user information to a database associated with the OTT service and sending an identification cookie to a User Equipment (UE) of the user. The UE may then request access to a web site. The identification cookie within the UE is read and correlated with the user information stored in the database. Data from the web site is then presented to the UE based on the user information.
