Problems solved by technology

[0006] When demand exceeds these transmission capacities, traditional wireless networks, such as network 10 shown in Figure 1, can degrade user experience, for example by dropping service, delaying downloads, or providing unusable data

Embodiment Construction

[0016] Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are merely representative for purposes of describing example embodiments. Example embodiments may be embodied in many alternative forms, and should not be construed as limited to only the example embodiments set forth herein.

[0017] Here, a "network operator" or "network" is defined as a network that includes, for example, 4G, CDMA, Wi-Fi, GSM, WiMax, 802.11, infrared, EV-DO, Bluetooth, GPS satellite, and / or any other suitable wireless technology or Any communication scheme that transmits at least some information wirelessly in at least a portion of a network of protocols.

[0018] Similarly, herein a "mobile station", "mobile device", "user equipment", "mobile user", "network user", or "subscriber" is a device capable of receiving or transmitting wireless data from / to a wireless network, includin...

Abstract

Methods determine data spots in a network by identifying a transmission resource and its characteristics so as to determine geography of a data spot. Users are then directed to, locate, and/or move to the data spot and retrieve desired content. Users may be directed to the determined data spot, with a map or compass. Transmission resources include ad hoc hotspots for need by sideloading network users in a communicative proximity. Methods may match characteristics of the requesting network user with determined transmission resources to position a data spot. Example methods may be configured based on amounts of network resources consumed, third-party costs to a user, maximizing user experience by providing nearer and faster data spots, and/or any other desired criteria. Different portions of the methods may be performed by the network, the user, and/or third-parties, to reduce network burden while supplying users with desired content through data spots.

Description

Background technique [0001] Cellular, Wi-Fi, radio, and other wireless / mobile communication networks have traditionally allowed individual users connected to the network to send and receive a variety of data, services, and media, including near-end and remote content such as voice, SMS, html, Email, IPTV, Internet radio, streaming video, and more. Such information is traditionally obtained over a network, via a home proxy or other centralized, network-controlled element with a high-bandwidth connection to a media provider (eg, the Internet) or stored content. Services and / or media are then distributed from centralized network elements to individual users via existing wireless connections between users and the network, ie in a "vertical" fashion. [0002] FIG. 1 is a view illustrating a conventional wireless network architecture for conventional vertical data exchange. As shown in FIG. 1 , subscribers to a wireless network 10 are communicatively connected to one or more under...
