Disclosed herein are various embodiments to prevent, detect, or take action in response to the moving a device credential from one device to another, the improper configuration of a service processor, a missing service processor, or the tampering with a service processor in device-assisted services (DAS) systems.

The present application at least describes a computer-implemented method including a step of setting, via a service layer residing on a server outside of an underlying 3GPP network, a trigger in the underlying 3GPP network, where the trigger defines an QoS parameter change in the underlying 3GPP network. The underlying 3GPP network is configured with functionality to send a notification to the service layer upon detecting the QoS parameter change. The computer-implemented method also includes a step of receiving, from the underlying 3GPP network, the notification the detected QoS parameter change has occurred. The computer-implemented method further includes a step of performing, at the service layer residing on the server a service layer operation in response to the received notification.

The present invention discloses methods and systems for communicating at a cellular router between a first wireless communication module and a first subscriber identity module (SIM). The cellular router receives a first request from a first wireless communication module and encapsulates the first request in a first modified request. The cellular router then sends the first modified request to a first SIM card in a first communication apparatus and waits for a first modified reply. While waiting for the first modified reply the cellular router sends at least one halt message to the first wireless communication module after a first time threshold. After receiving the first modified reply, the cellular router decapsulates the first modified reply to retrieve a first reply and sends the first reply to the first wireless communication module where the first modified reply is a reply to the first modified request.

A network access system providing network access to a mobile terminal or other device via an untrusted access point such as a wireless access point in an untrusted network. The access point registers with a service gateway, and the wireless terminal connects with the access point and receives a first network address for use with the service gateway. The terminal registers with the service gateway via the access point, and a context identity is maintained at the service gateway, associating the terminal with the access point for the duration of the connection. The terminal can then access a wider network through the service gateway. The service gateway may maintain billing and reward data associated with the context identity.

A system and method of performing automated reconciliation of devices and features in telecom expense management systems prior to running programs to optimize expense relative to usage or procuring new lines. The reconciliation accessing and carrier systems and devices and using enterprise configurable rules and live data from end point management systems. The system ensures accurate and up to date data is available for processing by downstream robotic process automation systems that perform the procurement/modification of plans and devices.

Product offering systems are provided. Product offering systems may include sending an offer to a customer that possesses a mobile computing device and has agreed to receive offers for products via the mobile computing device. Agreeing to receive offers would result in the unique data about the customer being available to offer provider. Unique customer data may include data related to the customers wireless service provider or from a financial account in a financial institution, and collecting customer data about the customer, wherein the customer data comprises financial data and personal data. Product offering systems may further include registering a wireless computing device of the customer to able the device to receive the offer, and determining opportunities to send the offer to the customer by monitoring the customer and the customer data. Product offering systems may also include sending the offer to the customer's registered device based on the determination of opportunities.

This disclosure relates to decentralized computing networks, architectures and techniques for collecting, analyzing, and processing data over multiple channels. A decentralized computing network comprises a plurality of computing nodes, each of which is dedicated to analyzing and processing events for a particular channel corresponding to a geographic region. Each node of the decentralized computing network can operate independently to process channel analysis data for a corresponding channel. The decentralized configuration of the nodes enables efficient processing of data collected over large geographic areas, increases the reliability of the system, and facilitates easy scaling of the system. Other embodiments are disclosed herein as well.

Methods and devices for supporting charging relating to a group transmission in a wireless communication network. The group transmission involving a group of wireless devices configured to, via one or more direct communication links between each other, participate in transmission of user data between a source wireless device and the network. It is obtained, for each one of wireless devices of the group, a data amount indicator indicating how much data the wireless device has been involved in transmitting as part of the group transmission. It is provided one or more reports based on the obtained data amount indicators to one or more core network nodes.

Method and device(s) for supporting charging relating to a group transmission in a wireless communication network, said group transmission involving a group of wireless devices configured to, via one or more direct communication links between each other, participate in data transmission between a source wireless device and the wireless communication network. Data is transmitted on a device specific group bearer in a core network of the wireless communication network, which second data relates to the group transmission and to a wireless device of the group. Said device specific group bearer being configured specifically for data transmission usage relating to the wireless device when the data transmission is part of the group transmission.

A method for subscriber tier plan adjustment including: monitoring traffic flow for one or more subscriber of a plurality of subscribers on an operator's network; determining a bandwidth requirement for each of the one or more subscribers; determining a recommended tier plan for each subscriber based on the subscribers' bandwidth requirement; and providing the recommended tier plan for each of the subscribers to a network operator. A system for subscriber tier plan adjustment including: a learning module configured to monitor traffic flow for one or more subscribers of a plurality of subscribers on a network and determine a bandwidth requirement of each of the one or more subscribers; an analysis module configured to determine a recommended tier plan for each of the subscribers based on each subscriber's bandwidth requirement; and a notification module configured to provide the recommended tier plan for each subscriber.
