A method performed by a gateway node for handling application data traffic of a session between a UE and an application server in a wireless communications network is provided. Upon establishing the session, the gateway node obtains from a policy node, an identity identifying one or more rules provisioned for the UE. The identity is associated with the session and with a UP based API to be used for the session. The gateway node receives through the UP based API, a message from the UE. The message comprises the identity and a flow identifier identifying the application data traffic related to the identity. The message requests the one or more rules to be enforced by the gateway node. Upon detecting application data traffic associated with the flow identifier, the gateway node enforces the one or more rules, according to the obtained identity, for the detected application data traffic between the UE and the application server.

A spam call prevention apparatus 11 includes: a response unit 111 configured to convey, to a phone terminal of a sender of a call, a response that, in a case where the call from the sender is evaluated as a spam or a fraud by a receiver of the call, the sender is billed a sum of money corresponding to a probability of being evaluated as the spam or the fraud; a notification unit 112 configured to notify, when the sender has requested, in responding to the response, the call to the receiver, a phone terminal of the receiver of a request for returning an evaluation result of evaluating the call from the sender after the call between the sender and the receiver has ended; and a determination unit 114 configured to determine, when the call from the sender has been evaluated as the spam or the fraud in the evaluation result, the sum of money corresponding to the probability of being evaluated as the spam or the fraud, as a sum of billing.

Techniques and systems for recovering a communication session from a dedicated bearer failure are disclosed. For example, a P-CSCF node can determine that a dedicated bearer associated with a communication session has failed, and, in response, send a SIP message to a UE associated with the communication session, the SIP message causing the UE to refrain from sending SIP requests using a SIP INVITE method. The process may further include identifying a first network node associated with an identifier of the UE, the first network node comprising one of a PGW or a SMF, and sending an instruction to the first network node to dissociate the dedicated bearer from the communication session. This causes a new attach procedure to be performed by the UE to recover the session without session failure.

A device may create a list of identifiers for base stations that support a fixed wireless service for a user device. The device may receive a first identifier of a first base station associated with a first attach request of the user device. The device may enable the fixed wireless service for the first base station for the user device when the first identifier is included in the list of identifiers. The device may disable the fixed wireless service for the first base station for the user device when the first identifier is not included in the list of identifiers.

The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods for ephemeris signaling in wireless networks.

A computer-implemented billing method including displaying, on a video call screen, video data related to a counterpart terminal with which a video call is connected, recognizing reaction information input from the counterpart terminal based on the video data related to the counterpart terminal displayed on the video call screen, and generating billing data related to the recognized reaction information of the counterpart terminal based on a billing policy may be provided.

An information processing system includes: an image display apparatus provided in a space and configured to display an image; a sensor apparatus carried by a user who is present in the space and configured to output a signal for detecting position information of the user in the space; and an information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus includes circuitry configured to store a plurality of pieces of position information of a plurality of users including the user, who are in present in the space, in association with the plurality of users, the plurality of users being detected based on signals output from a plurality of sensor apparatuses including the sensor apparatus, and control environment effect production that supports communication between the plurality of users by the image displayed by the image display apparatus, based on each of the plurality of pieces of position information of the plurality of users.

A mobile communications system includes switching between communication paths based on the quality of service. A VoIP service is coupled to a mobile network and a wireless local-area network (WLAN) via a wide-area IP network. A plurality of mobile communications devices are associated with VoIP telephone numbers. A public switched telephone network (PSTN) is coupled to the plurality of mobile communications devices and coupled to the VoIP service. A quality of service server is coupled to the plurality of mobile communications devices via the wide-area IP network for determining the quality of data channels to a mobile communications device via the mobile network and to the mobile communications device via the WLAN. A voice call is carried over one of the mobile network, the WLAN, and the PSTN depending on the quality of the data channels.

An intelligent interface responds to an order received in a text messaging session by initiating payment from an electronic wallet. An IP network interface receives requests including a source phone number, message content and the destination phone number. From the requests, an order program receives an order destined to a client establishment associated with the destination phone number. A response is generated with payment options from an electronic wallet associated with the source phone number. A reply generator generates a reply including the source phone number as a destination, the destination phone number as a source and the response. Selection of one of the payment options in the response causes the order program to process the payment for the order from the electronic wallet and forward the order to the client establishment.
