Application programming interface (API) to provide network metrics and network resource control to users
Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing network application programming interface (“API”), and, more particularly, API to provide network metrics and network resource control to users. In some embodiments, a computing system might receive customer network telemetry data from a first network via a gateway API, might receive service provider network telemetry data from a second network(s) via a network API, might compile the customer network telemetry data and the service provider network telemetry data, might receive a request from a user to access information regarding network services associated with the user, might filter the compiled customer network telemetry data and the compiled service provider network telemetry data to isolate first telemetry data and second telemetry data, respectively, might provide the user with access to at least one of the first telemetry data or the second telemetry data, and might provide the user with options to control network resources.
MESSAGE EXCHANGE SYSTEM
Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for selecting a routing provider that is best suited to deliver each individual message. The message exchange system selects a routing provider based on customer criteria provided by the customer, bids provided by the routing providers and/or performance of the routing providers. The message exchange system ranks the bids based on a ranking value calculated for each bid based on the cost value associated with the bid, the quality score of the associated routing provider and the customer criteria. The message exchange system selects a bid based on the resulting ranking values. For example, the message exchange system selects the bid that is ranked the highest based on the ranking values. The message exchange system then transmits the message to its intended recipient via the routing provider associated with the selected bid.
Service Design Center for Device Assisted Services
A technique involves modular storage of network service plan components and provisioning of same. A subset of the capabilities of a service design system can be granted to a sandbox system to enable customization of service plan offerings or other controls.
ASSOCIATING VEHICLE USER EQUIPMENT WITH CUSTOMER MOBILE ACCOUNTS
A server device can, in response to a mobile device request, facilitate presentation of a login page via a mobile device. The login page can prompt for access credentials to a user account associated with mobile communications services and associated with a user identity, wherein a displayed link by an in-vehicle user equipment enabled the mobile device to request the login page. Based on a receipt of the access credentials from the mobile device, the server device can facilitate displaying a prompt, via the mobile device, for entry of an activation code, wherein the activation code was displayed by the in-vehicle user equipment along with the displayed link. The server device can receive a submitted code from the mobile device, and in response to the submitted code being determined to match the activation code, pairing the in-vehicle user equipment with the user account.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FAIRLY CHARGING TALK TIME OF VIDEO CALL THAT INTRODUCES NEW PERSON
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.
CHARGING APPARATUS, METHOD, SYSTEM, AND NON-TRANSITORY MEDIUM
User identification information for identifying a user of a first terminal connecting to a communication network of a virtual communication operator via a communication network of a first communication operator is specified, and, based on the user identification information, charging for communication of the first terminal and charging for a service that the virtual communication operator is enabled to provide to the user identified by the user identification information are managed.
Access point connection method and terminal
Embodiments of this application relate to the communications field, and provide an access point connection method and a terminal, so as to preferentially connect to a traffic-free access point, reduce traffic consumption of a user, and improve video experience of the user. The method specifically includes: A terminal first obtains a charging type of each of at least one AP, where the AP charging type includes a traffic-free AP and a traffic-charged AP; and then the terminal selects an AP for connection based on the charging type of each of the at least one AP and an AP connection priority. A connection priority of the traffic-free AP is higher than that of the traffic-charged AP. This application is used to connect to an AP by a terminal.
Telecom information processing system and method thereof
The disclosed telecom information processing system and method thereof allows a telecommunications provider to enable its business and organisational customers to view, report on and analyse the expenses that have been billed (historical invoicing periods) or will be billed (real-time outstanding invoicing period) to the customer for their usage of telecommunications services (typically call charges and/or data charges and/or other charges) as agreed in their contractual arrangements, by directly ingesting call data records (CDRs) and data usage records from the network and calculating the correct invoicing based on records held in the software invention, defining those contractual arrangements.
TOLL-FREE NUMBERS METADATA TAGGING, ANALYSIS AND REPORTING
A method for predicting fraudulent call activity is provided. The method includes receiving one or more datasets indicating call activity corresponding to a phone number, and analyzing the one or more datasets to identify unusual call activity. The method further includes generating a fraud prediction, based at least in part on the identified unusual call activity, that the phone number will be used for fraud.
TOLL-FREE TELECOMMUNICATIONS AND DATA MANAGEMENT PLATFORM
A method for identifying a fraudulent phone number is provided. The method includes receiving a user report dataset indicating fraudulent activity corresponding to a phone number, and responsive to receiving the user report dataset, identifying a record in a database corresponding to the phone number. The method further includes tagging the record to identify the phone number as being associated with fraudulent activity.
