The method includes: acquiring configuration information of at least one working area; working in a first working area according to the configuration information, the first working area being among the at least one working area indicated by the configuration information; and performing an operation of changing the first working area in a case that a trigger event is satisfied.

An application acceleration method includes identifying a data packet to be transmitted by an application running on a mobile terminal as a data packet to be accelerated to an application server, and determining network communication qualities of a first network transmission path to an access node via a wireless LAN communication network and a second network transmission path to the access node via a mobile network. The method further includes selecting a network transmission path based on network communication quality from the first network transmission path and the second network transmission path, and transmitting the data packet to the access node via the selected network transmission path such that the access node transmits the data packet to the application server through the network acceleration channel. Apparatus and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium counterpart embodiments are also contemplated.

A process for changing networks for a plurality of wireless devices includes storing in a database current wireless network distribution information for the plurality of wireless devices and storing in the database charge rates for the current wireless network distribution information for the plurality of wireless devices. The process further includes analyzing with the processor the current wireless network distribution information for the plurality of wireless devices and the charge rates for the current wireless network distribution information for the plurality of wireless devices to determine a change in distribution of wireless networks for one or more of the plurality of wireless devices and sending with the processor a command to modify wireless network settings for the one or more of the plurality of wireless devices. A system is disclosed as well.

A system includes a base station and a server. The server includes a communication interface, a memory, and an electronic processor communicatively connected to the memory. The communication interface is configured to communicate with one or more base stations including the base station. The electronic processor is configured to receive location information of a third-party communication device that has received interference, determine whether the third-party communication device is located within a threshold distance from the base station based on a first interference radius associated with the base station, and output one or more resolution options to resolve interference between the base station and the third-party communication device in response to determining that the third-party communication device is located within the threshold distance from the base station.

A communication method, an apparatus, and a system in which a first session management function entity based on information of a terminal group determines user plane function entities accessed by terminals in a terminal group, and the first session management function entity determines a target user plane function entity based on the user plane function entities, where the target user plane function entity is used to perform communication between terminals in the terminal group. According to the method, the terminals in the terminal group are redirected to a same user plane function entity, namely, the target user plane function entity, so that communication between the terminals in the terminal group is locally implemented in the target user plane function entity. This shortens a communication path, and reduces a communication latency.

In one embodiment, a network assurance service that monitors a wireless network identifies a set of wireless network anomalies detected in the wireless network that are associated with a set of one or more network measurements. The network assurance service classifies the set of wireless anomalies as radio-related or backend-related. The network assurance service, when the set of wireless anomalies are classified as radio-related, determines that the wireless anomalies are recurring for a particular wireless access point in the network. The network assurance service initiates a change to the wireless network in part to move clients in the wireless network from the particular wireless access point to another wireless access point in the network.

A communication device determines whether a PHY data unit is to be transmitted in a first frequency band from among multiple frequency bands in which a WLAN communication protocol permits operation. The multiple frequency bands also include a second frequency band. The communication device determines whether the PHY data unit is to include a PS-Poll frame, and whether a BSS color is currently disabled for the WLAN. In response to i) determining that the PHY data unit is to be transmitted in the first frequency band, ii) determining that the PHY data unit is not to include a PS-Poll frame, and iii) determining that the BSS color is not currently disabled for the WLAN: the communication device determines that a TXOP duration subfield in a PHY preamble of the PHY data unit cannot be set to a value defined by the WLAN communication protocol for indicating a TXOP duration that is unspecified.
