Abstract: A computer-implemented method of controlling Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) for delivering a payload (120) to an intended delivery location (130-2) comprising the steps of: identifying a first AV (110-1) for retrieving a payload from a first location (130-1); determining a second location (140-1) to which the first AV is capable of travelling with the payload from the first location; instructing the first AV to retrieve the payload from the first location and to deliver the payload to the second location; communicating a wireless communication (160) requesting assistance from another AV to deliver the payload from the second location, wherein the wireless communication is in the form of a system information message; in response to the wireless communication, identifying a second AV (110-2) for retrieving the payload from the second location; and instructing the second AV to retrieve the payload from the second location and to deliver the payload to the intended delivery location (140-3).

Abstract: A method of selecting competitors for a multi-user competitive activity being performed over a telecommunications network, in which a first UE and a second UE are in communication with the telecommunications network, and the telecommunications network providing at least one network slice, wherein the method comprises the steps of: identifying a network slice onto which the first UE is allocated; identifying a network slice onto which the second UE is allocated; determining that the first UE and the second UE are intending to participate in the multi-user competitive activity; and selecting the first UE and the second UE to participate in the multi-user competitive activity in dependence on the identified network slices onto which the first UE and the second UE is allocated.

Abstract: A method of controlling an Autonomous Vehicle (AV) 110, comprising the steps of: detecting a fault in a first AV 110-1; in response to detecting said fault, transmitting a communication for alerting an AV of the fault, wherein said communication is a device-to-device wireless communication; receiving said communication at a second AV 110-2; identifying the second AV as being capable of retrieving at least part of the first AV and delivering said at least part to an intended destination; and instructing the second AV to perform the retrieving and delivering.

Abstract: This invention provides a method, and a network node for implementing the method, for establishing a multi-domain network slice in a telecommunications network, the telecommunications network being an internetwork of a first network domain and second network domain, in which the first network domain and second network domain are of different network types being one of an access network, backhaul network and a core network, wherein a network node includes a network slice database storing data on a plurality of network slices established in the first and second network domains, the method comprising the steps of: the network node receiving data indicating a change to the plurality of network slices established in the first and second network domains and, in response, updating the network slice database; the network node receiving a request from the first network to establish a multi-domain network slice across the first and second network, the multi-domain network slice using a first network slice on a first set of network nodes of the first network and a second network slice operating on a second set of network nodes of the second network, wherein the request includes requirement data for the multi-domain network slice; the network node identifying the second network slice by: retrieving, from the network slice database, network slice capability data for the second network slice, the network slice capability data indicating the second network slice's capability for one or more metrics, comparing the retrieved network slice capability data for the second network slice with requirement data for the multi-domain network slice, and selecting the second network slice based on the comparison; and the network node responding to the request with an identifier for the second network slice.

Abstract: In a LTE network user devices can access voice application service via Voice over LTE (VoLTE) and Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi). To detect faults in the data link associated with an evolved packet data gateway for providing access by the user device to the LTE network from a non-trusted network which will affect VoWiFi capability, a packet data gateway monitors the status of ePDG and if a fault is detected, the user device is notified that it should connect to voice services via VoLTE.

Abstract: A mobile terminal (11) transmits data to a base station (1) of a first network relating to neighbour base stations (13) of a second network. The base station (1) transmits the neighbour data to a network management processor (12) controlling the mobile communications system, which maintains a mapping data store (27) associating the base station with the neighbour base stations. The mapping facilitates a dual attachment process which allows connection of terminals to both networks, thus facilitating transfer of connection between networks.

Abstract: A telecommunications mobility management system is arranged to allocate a mobile unit to different switching routes for different classes of service, for example to allow services capable of operation over packet-switched and circuit-switched to be managed separately. Separate location updates are transmitted to a register, and flagged for selective retrieval by a routing function when an incoming connection request is made, the appropriate switch ID being selected according to the class of service to which the connection request relates.
