    Abstract: System and method for collecting and analyzing information on application-level activity and other user information on a mobile data network. A platform non-intrusively and transparently monitors data activity on a mobile data network in real-time so that user-level information can be reported to an operator. The platform comprises a plurality of collectors, a data manager, and a report manager. The collectors communicate with network routers to almost all network data. The collectors inspect the data for IP addresses and correlate them to user mobile phone numbers. The data manager receives the data and augments it with information obtained by querying carrier information. The data manager stores the data and monitors it to see if it satisfies a set of defined real-time reports. The report manager then works with the data manager to develop and test new reports based on operator instructions for a specific report.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for real-time, multi-dimensional reporting and analyzing of data on application level activity and other user information on a mobile data network. A report manager communicates with a data manager to develop and test real-time reports about aggregate and user-level network usage. The data manager provides a database of non-aggregate, user-specific event data and a set of tables specifying combinations of monitored variables satisfying a set of defined reports. The report manager comprises a report generation module, which receives operator instructions for aggregate usage information. The report module determines whether the requested information can be satisfied by combinations of monitored aggregate variables, or whether it must be retrieved from a non-aggregate, user-specific, event data database. Furthermore, the report module is responsive to operator instructions to add a test report to the set of defined real-time reports.

    Abstract: The invention provides a system and method for sharing anonymous user profiles with a third party. In one aspect of the invention, the system shares user profiles with content servers on a mobile data network so that they may select content responsive to the user's profile. The system provides a store of user profiles for associating profile information with either a source IP address or mobile phone number, where the profile includes information on the user and the user's network usage. The system detects a user's transaction request and inspects it for either an IP address or phone number, which it uses to retrieve the appropriate profile. The system subsequently applies predetermined opt-out policies to determine how much of the user profile may be provided in response to the profile request. The system then returns the profile information such that the user's identity is masked.

    Abstract: A femtocell is integrated into a core network so as to securely and efficiently deliver one or more mobile services to an end user on an existing mobile device over a broadband connection. This integration can be into a basic Internet Protocol (IP)-based network, or an IMS-based network. In an illustrated embodiment, a femtocell is integrated to a SIP- or IMS-based network using a “convergence” server. The convergence server preferably is a SIP-based fixed mobile convergence (FMC) application server that provides an all-IP approach to core network integration for femtocells. The convergence server provides a number of high level functions including secure access of an end user mobile device into the core network through the femtocell (which involves authenticating the femtocell as well as a specific end user mobile device), single number voice and messaging services (by updating an end user's location to be the femtocell), mobility (to support handover between the femtocell and macro cell networks), delivery of supplementary services (such as call waiting, call hold, caller ID, three-way calling, and the like) on the femtocell network, and the delivery of new and advanced services (such as home landline routing, mobile TV, multimedia downloads and the like).

    Abstract: Automated HTTP-based user authentication in a public WLAN environment is facilitated across heterogeneous network access servers (NASs). Each of a set of network access servers has a given authentication protocol, and these protocols typically differ from one another. According to the invention, each authentication protocol has a unique “signature.” According to the invention, a “smart” client that is executable on a given wireless device seeking access to the public WLAN environment is provided with a set of signatures. These signatures are used by the client to determine the appropriate access protocol to use with respect to a given NAS that is controlling access to the WLAN. The client may also have the capability of discovering an unknown authentication protocol “on-the-fly” as it attempts to obtain wireless access. The set of signatures is updated in the client from time-to-time without requiring the client software to be recompiled. The present invention thus provides a generic mechanism by which a client can work with any NAS.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for storing data on application-level activity and other user information to enable real-time multi-dimensional reporting about a user of a mobile data network. A data manager receives information about application-level activity from a mobile data network and stores the information to provide dynamic real-time reporting on network usage. The data manager comprises a database, data processing module, and analytics module. The database stores the application-level data for a predetermined period of time. The data processing module monitors the data to determine if it corresponds to a set of defined reports. If the data is relevant, the processing module updates the defined reports. The analytics module accesses the database to retrieve information satisfying operator queries about network usage. If the operator chooses to convert the query into a defined report, the analytics module creates a newly defined report and populates it accordingly.
