25 results about "Mobile broadband" patented technology

Mobile broadband is the marketing term for wireless Internet access through a portable modem, USB wireless modem, or a tablet/smartphone or other mobile device. The first wireless Internet access became available in 1991 as part of the second generation (2G) of mobile phone technology. Higher speeds became available in 2001 and 2006 as part of the third (3G) and fourth (4G) generations. In 2011, 90% of the world's population lived in areas with 2G coverage, while 45% lived in areas with 2G and 3G coverage. Mobile broadband uses the spectrum of 225 MHz to 3700 MHz.

Systems and methods for broadcast signal utilization to improve mobile broadband services

A broadcast service network (separate from a cellular network) includes broadcast service signal (BSS) nodes that broadcast signals to receivers of user equipment (UE). The BSS may provide broadcast service information to user equipment, such as the emergency notifications, even when the user equipment is out of range of the cellular network. Further, the broadcast service signals may provide information that improves the user equipment's search and access time for connecting to the cellular network (e.g., a cellular service station) and / or that assists the user equipment in locating a nearby region of cellular network coverage. In addition, the BSS may be wake-up signals configured to activate the receiver when the receiver is in a sleep or inactive mode. In some embodiments, the BSS may be pointer signals configured to direct the user equipment to a broadcast service channel to receive the broadcast service information.

Ultra-lean localization and doppler procedures for 5G and 6G

5G and especially 6G are intended to accommodate high-speed mobile user devices and access points such as wireless devices on trains and airplanes, while retaining enhanced mobile broadband eMBB service. Therefore, new resource-efficient, low-complexity procedures are needed for measuring and correcting the Doppler frequency shift. To assist user devices, a base station or access point can periodically broadcast a current geographical location of the base station or access point in a localization message. In some embodiments, the geographical location data can be included in a periodically broadcast system information message, such as unused space of a SSB (synchronization signal block) message or an SIB1 (first system information block) message. User devices can then determine a vector toward the base station or access point relative to the user device location and velocity, and thereby calculate a Doppler correction without a frequency scan or other overhead, according to some embodiments.

Network load balancing based on device type or history

Solutions are disclosed that perform network load balancing based on device type and / or history. Current “fair” criteria, such as round-robin selection, that select user equipment (UEs) for off-loading to lower-bandwidth frequency layers do not take into account bandwidth usage history and device type, even though human users using enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) devices are typically more delay-sensitive than fixed wireless access (FWA) UEs, even while an FWA may consume as much network bandwidth as 10 eMBBs. Example solutions determine UE device type and / or bandwidth usage history, and prioritize certain UEs (e.g., eMBB) for higher-bandwidth frequency layers than other UE types (e.g., FWA) and / or UEs that have a history of heavy bandwidth use. This enhances the user experience for a larger number of delay-sensitive users.
