Utility
Use of MU-MIMO grouping efficiency as a basis to control configuration of dual-connectivity service
7 Mar 23
When a first access node is considering setup of dual-connectivity service for a UE, the first access node could take into consideration the MU-MIMO grouping efficiency respectively of each of one or more candidate second access nodes, in order to decide whether to set up the dual-connectivity service for the UE and/or to decide which of the multiple second access nodes to use for the UE's dual-connectivity service.

Utility
Prediction of handover trigger as basis to control primary-uplink-path switching for dual-connected device
28 Feb 23
A method and system for controlling uplink-path switching of a user equipment device (UE) when the UE has at least two co-existing air-interface connections including a first air-interface connection with a first access node and a second air-interface connection with a second access node, and where one of the first and second air-interface connections defines a primary uplink path of the UE.

Utility
Use of network signaling (NS) values to cooperatively control spectral emission and additional functionality such as uplink/downlink subcarrier shifting
28 Feb 23
A method and system to help prevent legacy devices that do not support a service feature such as uplink-downlink subcarrier shifting from connecting with an access node on a carrier where the service feature should be applied.

Utility
Use of group delay variation as a basis to control configuration of dual-connectivity service
21 Feb 23
When a first access node is considering setup of dual-connectivity service for a UE, the first access node could take into consideration a group delay variation of each of one or more candidate second access nodes, in order to decide whether to set up the dual-connectivity service for the UE and/or to decide which of the multiple second access nodes to use for the UE's dual-connectivity service.

Utility
Use of per-connection frequency bandwidth as basis for dynamic control of air-interface communication with dual-connected device
14 Feb 23
A method and system for controlling data split of a dual-connected user equipment device (UE) when the UE has at least two co-existing air-interface connections including a first air-interface connection with a first access node and a second air-interface connection with a second access node.

Utility
Method for generating and using a 2D barcode
7 Feb 23
A method of generating and using a 2D barcode to provide an authenticated service subscriber with an adapted offer comprising monitoring and identifying, by a monitoring application associated with a first service provider, a social network for keywords related to a negative subscriber interaction with a second service provider; engaging a subscriber associated with the negative interaction by the first service provider; generating a one-time use 2D barcode associated with an offer and comprising embedded subscriber information; storing the barcode in a data store; sending the barcode to a mobile device; presenting and scanning the barcode; decoding the information by an offer application; authenticating the identity of the subscriber; adapting the offer based on the subscriber information; searching an inventory data store associated with a physical retail location of the first service provider; locating and presenting the adapted offer; and marking the barcode as expired in the barcode data store.

Utility
Dynamic carrier reconfiguration in response to predicted uplink intermodulation distortion
27 Dec 22
When an access node is providing a UE with carrier-aggregation service on a PCell in combination with one or more SCells and the UE engages in a voice call including uplink voice communication on the PCell, the access node will determine that there is a threshold high level of IMD on the uplink resulting from concurrent downlink transmissions, and the access node will responsively swap the UE's PCell with one of the UE's one or more SCells.
