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.

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 system includes at least one mobile communication network for granting user equipment (UE) subscribed to the network a corresponding data quota comprising a corresponding amount of mobile data the UE can exchange with the network it is subscribed to. The system further includes a broker platform for making available for at least one mobile communication network a corresponding set of further data quotas, the broker platform further receiving a data amount request of a corresponding additional data quota for a UE subscribed to a corresponding network. In response to the received data amount request, the broker platform selects a further data quota from the set of further data quotas corresponding to the network the UE is subscribed to, and provides the additional data quota to the UE through the network the UE is subscribed to by exploiting at least a part of the selected further additional data quota.

Examples disclosed herein involve receiving a request from a calling device to establish a communication session between a mobile device and the calling device, the mobile device assigned a virtual telephone number, retrieving location information corresponding to a location of the mobile device from a location register, and sending a redirect to a session border controller (SBC) to establish the communication session between the calling device and the mobile device based on the location information.

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 communication device for use in a system including a database storing a unique identifier and position information for every mobile communication terminal is provided with an acquisition unit that acquires, based on the unique identifier of a mobile communication terminal serving as a communication destination, the position information of the mobile communication terminal serving as the communication destination from the database, and acquires an IP address of a router accommodating the mobile communication terminal serving as the communication destination, based on the acquired position information, and a communication unit that transmits a packet having the IP address in a header.

Methods and apparatuses to manage service user discovery and service launch object placement on a device. A method comprising: obtaining information to assist in identifying a portion of a user interface of a wireless device, the wireless device communicatively coupled to a network system over a wireless access network; determining a differentiating attribute of the identified portion of the user interface; obtaining one or more service launch objects for placement in the identified portion of the user interface; and sending configuration information to the wireless device over the wireless access network to assist the wireless device in placing the one or more service launch objects in the identified portion of the user interface.

The present invention may include a computer identifies an event in an area. The computer predicts a demand for one or more cloud services for the event. The computer identifies a vehicle in an area of the event, where the vehicle have a dynamic vehicle cloud server and the computer caches the one or more cloud services for the event to the dynamic vehicle cloud server.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a non-transitory, machine-readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processing system including a processor, facilitate performance of operations including receiving a call; selecting a next carrier to handoff the call; generating a call data record (CDR) for the handoff to the next carrier; encrypting the CDR using a call encryption key, thereby creating an encrypted CDR; encrypting the encrypted CDR using a committee encryption key, thereby creating a double encrypted CDR; recording the double encrypted CDR to a blockchain; and sending the call encryption key to the next carrier. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Charging interval authorizations according to the techniques disclosed herein provide for credit reservation and charging of whole charging intervals across two or more credit containers(36) in or linked to a subscriber account (34), without the need for redefining the charging interval size, even where the types of credit units differ between or among the credit containers (36) used to authorize the charging interval. Among the various advantages, the disclosed techniques preserve the original charging interval size, which may be defined for reasons of signaling efficiency, while simultaneously allowing the reservation or consumption of credit units from credit containers (36) having insufficient remaining credit for authorization of the full charging interval.
