Abstract: A method, a network device, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are described in relation to an radio access management service. The radio access management service may include calculating a predicted total resource allocation value for a prospective access and transmission grant associated with a prospective time window, and a value indicating a number of end devices that can be supported. The service may generate and transmit an access and transmission grant message directed to end devices, based on the value, in which the message may include both random access response information and contention resolution information.

Abstract: A device may include a processor. The processor may be configured to: assign, within a first wireless network, an access point name (APN) to a first gateway for a shared network. The first wireless network includes the first gateway. A second wireless network includes a second gateway for the shared network, and the second gateway is assigned the APN within the second network.

Abstract: A device may receive data relating to a site plan and image data relating to a network device. The device may determine a device identifier based on the image data, associate the device identifier with the site plan based on a common attribute between the network device and the site plan, and cause a certificate to be generated based on an authentication request to a network controller. The authentication request may cause the network controller to generate the certificate based on the device identifier and/or the site plan. The device may cause an Internet protocol (IP) address to be assigned to the network device based on the certificate, a location of the network device, and/or another related parameter, cause a node configuration to be generated based on the IP address, the device identifier, and/or the site plan, and provision the network device according to the node configuration.

Abstract: At least one network device receives a first network address of a first small cell wireless station that has been registered as an authorized wireless station for network access to a target network. The at least one network device adds the first network address of the first small cell wireless station to a small cell wireless station data structure that lists a plurality of network addresses associated with a plurality of authorized small cell wireless stations, and validates, upon power-up of the first small cell wireless station, the first small cell wireless station against the small cell wireless station data structure to selectively establish a first tunnel, between the first small cell wireless station and a gateway connected to the target network, to enable network access to the target network.

Abstract: A system may use optical character recognition (“OCR”) techniques to identify license plates or other textual information associated with vehicles. Based on this OCR information, the system may determine additional information, such as users associated with the vehicles. The system may further obtain other information, such as history information associated with the vehicles and/or the users (e.g., via an “opt-in” data collection service). Ad content may be selected based on trends associated with the users and/or vehicles, and may be presented via “smart” billboards (e.g., billboards that may dynamically display different content).

Abstract: A mobile device may receive user input for requesting personal information for a subject in proximity of a mobile device and based on the user input, selecting one of available functions. The functions may include a first function for obtaining personal information using a first identifier. The functions may also include a second function for obtaining the personal information using the first identifier. The mobile device may output the personal information as an image to a display or as speech to speaker.

Abstract: Techniques described herein may allow for the granting and revoking of temporary access, for User Equipment (“UE”) devices, to a wireless network. Multiple UEs may be registered with a group, where only a limited quantity of UEs in the group may be active at a given time. Once granted access, a UE device may have limits on the access, such as a maximum duration and/or a data limit. When a particular UE device, in a group, requests access to the network, a Group Device Authentication Server (“GDAS”) may determine whether to grant the access, based on how many other UEs in the group (if any) currently have access. The GDAS may also revoke the access once granted (e.g., once the maximum duration has been reached).

Abstract: Systems described herein ensure authorized communications between application servers and machine-type communications (MTC) devices. The systems store a subscriber profile for an MTC device, the subscriber profile including application server (AS) configuration information designating application servers that are authorized to connect with the MTC device. The systems receive a non-IP data delivery (NIDD) registration request from an application server, wherein the NIDD registration request includes an identifier for the MTC device. The systems obtain, from the application server, a first identifier for the application server, and retrieve, based on the NIDD registration request, the AS configuration information from the subscriber profile.

Abstract: Parking guidance is provided to a user of a mobile device requesting information on parking spots at a requested location for a requested time. In response to receiving a parking information request, parking spots having locations proximate to the requested location and having availability at the requested time are identified in a database of parking spot information of a parking management server. A notification of the identified parking spots is transmitted to the user device from which the information request was received. In response to receiving a reservation request identifying a parking spot to be reserved from the user device, the database is updated to identify the identified parking spot as being unavailable at the requested time. Additionally, a notification of the reservation request is transmitted to a parking manager associated with the identified parking spot, the notification identifying the particular parking spot and the requested time.

Abstract: Femtocells are often used to extend the coverage of wireless telecommunication networks, but do not typically incorporate mechanisms that allow their location to be easily ascertained. As described herein, a system may determine the locations of femtocells, based on the locations of user devices that attach to, detach from, handover between, and/or detect the femtocells. A map (such as a three-dimensional map) may be generated based on the determined locations of femtocells. The locations of femtocells may be used, for example, in emergency broadcast situations, in order to ensure that messages are distributed as completely as possible in a given region.
