Indication of Attributes of Backhaul Connections of Access Points
Embodiments include methods and devices enabling an access point to indicate an attribute of the backhaul connection of the access point. Embodiments include methods and devices for notifying a user of a computing device of backhaul connection attributes of available access points.
Managing Power Resources of an Internet of Everything (IoE) Device
Embodiments include systems and methods for managing power resources of an Internet of Everything (IoE) device. A processor of the IoE device may monitor an uplink interference over time. The device processor may calculate wireless communication parameters based on the monitored uplink interference over time, and may store in a memory the calculated wireless communication parameters. The device processor may calculate a transmit power based on one or more stored wireless communication parameters associated with a transmit time, and may transmit to a communication network a request to establish a communication link using the calculated transmit power.
RELIABILITY OF VoLTE/ViLTE CALLS
A method for improving reliability of Voice over LTE (VoLTE)/Video over LTE (ViLTE) calls includes detecting, by a User Equipment (UE) camped on a first Radio Access Technology (RAT), a problem with a radio connection on the first RAT at a first time. After detecting the problem with the radio connection, the UE blocks Non-Access Stratum (NAS) registration on a second RAT in a time period between the first time and a second time later than the first time. The second RAT is different than the first RAT.
METHOD OF MOVING VIRTUAL ENTITY IN VIRTUAL NETWORK AND SERVICE PROVIDING METHOD USING THE SAME
Provided is to technology for moving a virtual entity in a virtual network. A method of moving a virtual entity implemented in a virtual network includes providing a service to a user terminal located at a first position by using a virtual entity implemented in a first host located in a first virtual network and when a position of the user terminal is changed, moving the virtual entity to another host capable of providing the service at a close distance to the position-changed user terminal.
Enhanced Wireless Communications and Power Systems for a Venue
Systems for providing enhanced wireless communications and power at venues are provided. In one embodiment, the system includes a first communication device that receives audio from a user (such as a coach on a sideline), generates a wireless signal, and transmits the wireless signal to a second communication device via an antenna system (e.g., an antenna system mounted on an overhead camera) that relays the signal. The second communication device (which could be worn by a player during a sporting event) receives the wireless signal and plays the audio. In another embodiment, the wireless signal is broadcast to a plurality of communications devices worn by players. Also provided is a power and communication system for use at a seat at the venue, which provides power for a user's mobile device as well as wired and wireless network (e.g., Internet) connectivity at the seat.
ACCESS POINT RADIO FREQUENCY ADJUSTMENT
In some examples, a method for Access Point (AP) radio frequency adjustment can include receiving, for a given AP in a wireless network, data regarding: (a) radios of a first set of neighboring APs that are available to serve, at a first frequency, a wireless client associated with the given AP, and (b) radios of a second set of neighboring APs that are available to serve, at a second frequency, the wireless client. The method can further include determining, for a radio of the given AP and based on the received data, a frequency redundancy for a set of wireless clients in the wireless network automatically adjusting a frequency of the radio of the given AP based on the determined frequency redundancy.
DETERMINATION OF HOME ROUTING CAPABILITY OF A NEUTRAL HOST NETWORK
A neutral home network (NHN) may support home-routed traffic between a user equipment (UE) and a network of a mobile network operator (MNO) associated with the UE. The NHN may transmit an access point name (APN) that indicates a public land mobile network (PLMN) identifier (ID) to the UE. If the NHN supports home-routed traffic, the NHN may transmit an APN that indicates an MNO PLMN ID. If the NHN does not support home-routed traffic, the NHN may transmit an APN that indicates an NHN PLMN ID. From the APN, the UE may determine whether the NHN supports home-routed traffic. If the NHN supports home-routed traffic, the UE may transmit a packet data network (PDN) connectivity request to the NHN. If the NHN does not support home-routed traffic, the UE may establish a tunnel to the MNO network through Internet access provided by the NHN.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SERVICE PROVIDER SPECIFIC REMOTE ACCESS VIA NEUTRAL HOST NETWORKS
Present systems and methods provide ways to provide access services to connecting wireless devices particularly for (but not limited to) neutral host networks. Steps include executing authentication between a connecting wireless device and a service provider, receiving an address of a remote gateway from the service provider, and providing access service for the wireless device including forwarding data received from the wireless device to the indicated remote gateway address in forwarding wireless device associated data received from the remote gateway address to the wireless device. Other ways are also disclosed.
CONFIGURATION OF ACCESS POINTS IN A COMMUNICATION NETWORK
Network components can be configured in order to allow multiple communication devices of transient users, such as hotel guests, to automatically connect to the network infrastructure. A device of the user may specify network access information that is known by all of the user's devices to configuration functionality that in turn configures the network components, such as one or more wireless access points in order to advertise the network details that are already known by the user's multiple devices.
SYSTEM, METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SENSOR VIRTUALIZATION IN MOBILE DEVICES
A method and system for virtualizing mobile device sensors includes requesting from a first mobile device a virtual connection with a mobile device having a specific type of sensor, receiving a response from a second mobile device having the sensor, establishing a trusted temporary communication connection between the first and second mobile devices, sending a control signal from an application program on the first mobile device to the second mobile for operating the sensor on the second mobile device and receiving device sensor data from the sensor on the second mobile device. The operating system of the first mobile device is coupled with the application program by a virtual machine monitor running on the first mobile device such that the first mobile device is a host machine and the second mobile device is a guest machine.
