20140126469 | LIMITING OF PACKET DATA NETWORK CONNECTION REQUESTS FOR WIRELESS DEVICES - Packet data network (PDN) connection requests from a mobile device may be limited by the mobile device. In one implementation, the mobile device may track an amount of successful PDN connection requests issued by the mobile device over a cellular network and maintain a timer value relating to an amount of time over which the successful PDN connection requests have been tracked. The mobile device may determine an allowable number of PDN connection requests and compare the amount of successful PDN connection requests to the allowable number of PDN connection requests. The mobile device may determine, based on the comparison, whether to block a PDN connection request from being issued to the cellular network. | 05-08-2014 |
20150092590 | CATEGORY 1 M2M DEVICE DATA TRANSMISSION VIA A LONG TERM EVOLUTION NETWORK - A scheduler device may receive machine-to-machine (M2M) transmission information associated with a data transmission between a base station and a category 1 M2M device. The scheduler device may determine other transmission information associated with the base station. The other transmission information may include information associated with another data transmission between the base station and another device which is not a category 1 M2M device. The scheduler device may generate a resource assignment schedule associated with the category 1 M2M device and the other device. The resource assignment schedule may be based on the M2M transmission information and the other transmission information. The resource assignment schedule may identify a set of resources to be allocated to the category 1 M2M device during an increment of time. The scheduler device may provide the resource assignment schedule. | 04-02-2015 |
20150117184 | MANAGEMENT OF ACCESS NETWORK RETRY ACROSS POWER CYCLE - A device creates a list of permanent evolved packet system (EPS) mobility management (EMM) failure events associated with the device, where the list includes information associated with one or more permanent EMM failure events encountered by the device. The device stores the list of permanent EMM failure events, provides an attach request message to an access network, and receives, from the access network, a reject message as a response to the attach request message. The device performs a power cycle based on receiving the reject message, and erases, based on the power cycle, a forbidden public land mobile network (PLMN) list and a forbidden tracking area list maintained by the device. The device repopulates the forbidden PLMN list and the forbidden tracking area list with information included in the list of permanent EMM failure events. | 04-30-2015 |
20150181549 | MOBILE DEVICE LOCATING USING LONG TERM EVOLUTION SIGNALS - The described examples provide a system and methods for identifying a location of a mobile device within an indoor venue using cellular communication signals obtained while the mobile device is within the indoor venue. An array of antennas arranged within the indoor venue detects cellular communication signals transmitted by the mobile device. The detected cellular communication signals have detectable and measurable signal parameters that allow the location of the mobile device within the indoor venue and an identifier of the mobile device to be determined. The determined identifier of the mobile device may also be used to identify the mobile device subscriber. The mobile device indoor location information may be used to update an anonymized subscriber profile associated with the mobile device subscriber. | 06-25-2015 |
20150245267 | SWITCHOVER SERVICE FOR NETWORK SELECTION FALLBACK - A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium having instructions to receive channel information from a node of a first network, wherein the channel information indicates a channel to use to access a second network when a switchover is invoked, wherein the first network and the second network operate according to different communicative standards; store the channel information; attempt to establish a session with another device via the first network; determine whether an establishment of the session via the first network is successful; and invoke the switchover, wherein the switchover includes using the channel information to attempt to establish a same session via the second network, in response to a determination that the establishment of the session via the first network failed. | 08-27-2015 |
20150341779 | Systems and Methods for Providing Modem Behavior-Based Setup for User Devices - Systems and methods are described for enabling a mobile device to connect with a data network, based on the type of account associated with the mobile device. The system transmits a first signal to the data network and receives one or more network codes in response. The network codes may correspond to a type of SIM card associated with the mobile device. The system may display one or more setup screens on the mobile device based on the received network codes. The setup screens may guide the user of the mobile device to access the data network using an existing account, or setup a new account to access the data network. | 11-26-2015 |
20150341897 | DUAL REGISTRATION COORDINATION FOR TUNE AWAY - A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium having instructions to receive tune away data from a multimode mobile device and to adjust network processes based on the tune away data including downlink scheduling, uplink scheduling, and handover procedures. | 11-26-2015 |
20160073284 | Device Assisted Multi-Step Adaptive Discontinuous Reception (DRX) Operations Using Power Preference Indicator - Examples of power conservation management for user equipment based on the operating state of the user equipment are provided. A user equipment may implement a power managing application that monitors the activity of the user equipment, such as the number of applications open on the user equipment, the data usage requirements for each open application, data delay tolerances for each application and/or a level of user interaction with the device at a given moment. Based on the level of activity and the data requirements, the managing application on the user equipment is able to make a discontinuous reception profile setting recommendation selected from more than two discontinuous reception profiles to the mobile communications network entity. In response to the discontinuous reception profile setting recommendation, the network entity may modify the connection status with the user equipment. | 03-10-2016 |
20160073300 | DEVICE STATE DERIVATION - Systems and methods for device state derivation are described. Some implementations include receiving, from a mobile station at a state derivation server, current connectivity characteristics of one or more radio access technologies (RATs) that are serviced by a modem of the mobile station, analyzing the one or more connectivity characteristics to determine one or more of: whether the mobile station is tuning away from a particular RAT to access another RAT or a duration for which the mobile station is tuning away from the particular RAT to access the other RAT, based on the analyzing, determining a current connectivity state of the mobile station, and displaying the current connectivity state at a user interface of a computing device associated with the state derivation server. | 03-10-2016 |
