Abstract
A mobile gateway may provide access to one or more networks based on a variety of configurable parameters, constraints, etc. A Mobile Gateway Management System (“MGMS”) may maintain different sets of rules, parameters, etc. associated with multiple different mobile gateways, such that a network may be able to determine whether to provide access to a particular mobile gateway based on location parameters, temporal parameters, account parameters, or other parameters. When access is granted to the network based on the parameters, the mobile gateway may serve as an interface between one or more User Equipment (“UEs”) and the network.
Claims20
A device, comprising:
- one or more processors configured to:
- identify one or more models that correlate sets of access parameters, for access to a particular network, to one or more respective sets of mobile gateway parameters;
- receive a request, associated with a particular mobile gateway, to access the particular network;
- identify, based on the request, a particular set of mobile gateway parameters associated with the particular mobile gateway;
- compare the particular set of mobile gateway parameters, associated with the particular mobile gateway, to the sets of mobile gateway parameters included in the one or more models;
- identify a particular set of access parameters, associated with the one or more models, based on the comparing;
- determine whether to provide access in response to the request based on the identified particular set of access parameters;
- and
- selectively perform, based on the determining, one of:
- deny the request for the particular mobile gateway to access the particular network, or
- grant the request for the particular mobile gateway to access the particular network, wherein the mobile gateway provides connectivity between one or more User Equipment (“UEs”) and the particular network when the request to access the particular network is granted.
8 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable medium, storing a plurality of processor-executable instructions to:
- identify one or more models that correlate sets of access parameters, for access to a particular network, to one or more respective sets of mobile gateway parameters;
- receive a request, associated with a particular mobile gateway, to access the particular network;
- identify, based on the request, a particular set of mobile gateway parameters associated with the particular mobile gateway;
- compare the particular set of mobile gateway parameters, associated with the particular mobile gateway, to the sets of mobile gateway parameters included in the one or more models;
- identify a particular set of access parameters, associated with the one or more models, based on the comparing;
- determine whether to provide access in response to the request based on the identified particular set of access parameters;
- and
- selectively perform, based on the determining, one of:
- deny the request for the particular mobile gateway to access the particular network, or
- grant the request for the particular mobile gateway to access the particular network, wherein the mobile gateway provides connectivity between one or more User Equipment (“UEs”) and the particular network when the request to access the particular network is granted.
