  • Publication number: 20220345882
    Abstract: A data communication network serves a user application in User Equipment (UE) over a Virtual Private Network (VPN) Gateway (GW), Application Function (AF), and Network Exposure Function (NEF). The user application in the UE transfers user data to a VPN application in the UE. The VPN application in the UE transfers the user data over a VPN to the VPN-GW for delivery to the NEF. The VPN-GW receives user data over the VPN and transfers the user data to the AF for delivery to the NEF. The AF receives the user data for delivery to the NEF and generates an Application Programming Interface (API) call with the user data. The AF transfers the API call to the NEF. The NEF receives the API call and responsively exposes the user data. The user data may comprise user signaling, and the UE may exchange user data with external systems over the VPN GW responsive to the user signaling.

  • Publication number: 20220346089
    Abstract: A wireless access node serves wireless User Equipment (UEs) and wireless Integrated Access and Backhaul Mobile Terminations (IAB MTs). A radio exchanges access communications with the UEs over a frequency channel. The radio receives an IAB request from one of the IAB MTs, and in response, a controller allocates the frequency channel into a UE subchannel and an MT subchannel. The radio now exchanges access communications with the UEs over the UE subchannel and exchanges backhaul communications with the wireless IAB MT over the MT subchannel. The controller reallocates the frequency channel when an IAB MT is added to give the new IAB MT its own MT subchannel. The controller reallocates the frequency channel when an IAB MT is removed to increase the size of the UE subchannel.

  • Publication number: 20220277325
    Abstract: An online host for conducting a promotion campaign is presented. Online behaviors of subscribers exposed by the promotion campaign are tracked for determining conversion counts for the promotion campaign. For exposed subscribers whose online behaviors are not sufficiently available to the online host to determine conversion counts (non-measurable subscribers), a machine learning model is trained to predict conversion counts based on online behaviors that are conducted on internet locations under control of the online service, and further trained to determine an estimated error rate regarding the predicted conversion counts.

  • Publication number: 20220232435
    Abstract: User circuitry within a wireless User Equipment (“UE”) in need of a network slice or a handoff between cells identifies a slice service type. The user circuitry processes an uplink interference threshold of a target cell based on the slice service type. The user circuitry identifies a preferred operating frequency band based on the slice service type and the uplink interference threshold of the target cell. The user circuitry transfers a service request for a wireless data service having the slice service type over the preferred operating frequency band to network circuitry. The network circuitry wirelessly exchanges data with a wireless access node associated with the target cell over the preferred operating frequency band to establish a packet data unit session comprising the slice service type.
