Abstract: A VoWiFi service monitor monitors the logical data path to the ePDG of a MNO as an indication of whether VoWiFi service is possible for subscribers of the MNO network. Due to the standard configuration of UEs in preferring WLAN connectivity over LTE cellular connectivity, if the VoWiFi service is unavailable the UEs will not automatically switch to VoLTE while a WLAN connection is available between the UE and a hub. When a change in the status of an ePDG is detected, the VoWiFi service monitor informs any connected hubs. The hubs receive notifications from the VoWiFi service monitor and for each notification determine whether the ePDG status change affects one or more of the VoWiFi capable UEs connected to the hub. If at least one such device is affected by the change, the hub notifies the affected UE with instructions to handover from VoWiFi to VoLTE.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method (300) of operating a telecommunications network (110-1), said telecommunications network comprising a plurality of nodes (150), and the method comprising the steps of: storing: a set of historic reconfiguration instructions, said instructions having been used to reconfigure the telecommunications network; first status information from each of the plurality of nodes, wherein said first status information is received prior to reconfiguring the telecommunications network according to a given historic reconfiguration instruction; and second status information from each of the plurality of nodes, wherein said second status information is received after reconfiguring the telecommunications network according to the given historic reconfiguration instruction; receiving a new reconfiguration instruction (310); prior to reconfiguring the telecommunications network according to the new reconfiguration instruction, identifying from the set a similar historic reconfiguration instruction having a similarity to the new reconfiguration instruction within a tolerance threshold; comparing the first and the second status information associated with the identified similar historic reconfiguration instruction so as to determine whether the identified similar historic reconfiguration instruction resulted in a detrimental effect to performance of the telecommunications network; in dependence on whether the identified similar historic reconfiguration instruction resulted in a detrimental effect, calculating a success confidence metric for the new reconfiguration instruction, said metric representing a probability that a reconfiguration instruction does not result in a detrimental effect to performance of the telecommunications network (320); and if the success confidence metric is: greater than a predetermined threshold value, reconfiguring the telecommunications network according to the new reconfiguration instruction (350); or less than a predetermined threshold value, preventing reconfiguration of the telecommunications network according to the new reconfiguration instruction (360).

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 establishing a telecommunications service between a client and a server. The method comprises receiving a request at a first domain for the telecommunications service and providing, by the first domain, a first function for establishing part of the telecommunications service. A process is repeatedly performed until a path is established between the client and the server via a plurality of domains comprising the first domain. The process comprises a domain identifying and instructing a subsequent domain to provide a further function for establishing the telecommunications service, and using the subsequent domain as the domain for a subsequent iteration of the process. The telecommunications service is established between the client and server via the plurality of domains
