Abstract
A mobile device can be configured to connect to a telecommunications network via a wireless fidelity network device. The mobile device can register with a channel of a base station, which can indicate where the mobile device is located in relation to the base station. Additionally, the mobile device can communicate with other mobile devices via the wireless fidelity network device. In response to an indication that the mobile device is no longer connected to the wireless fidelity network device, notifications can be sent to the mobile device or other mobile devices regarding additional communication.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- facilitating, by a first network device comprising a processor, transmitting request data related to a registration request to use a channel of a base station device;
- facilitating, by the first network device, connecting to a second network device, resulting in a connection between the first network device and the second network device;
- facilitating, by the first network device, receiving internet protocol address data associated with an internet protocol address of the second network device;
- facilitating, by the first network device, transmitting the internet protocol address data to a location register;
- in response to a condition associated with a distance between the first network device and the second network device being determined to have been satisfied, terminating, by the first network device, the connection;
- and
- in response to a third network device attempting a communication with the first network device, facilitating, by the first network device, receiving an indication of a missed communication from the third network device via the channel of the base station device.
A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
- receiving, from a first mobile device, request data associated with a request to use a channel of a base station device;
- in response to the receiving the request data, facilitating a registration of the first mobile device with the base station device;
- connecting the first mobile device to a network device;
- in response to the connecting the first mobile device to the network device, receiving internet protocol address data associated with an internet protocol address of the network device;
- transmitting a first communication from a second mobile device to the first mobile device via the network device;
- based on a condition associated with a distance between the first mobile device and the network device being determined to have been satisfied, terminating the transmitting of the first communication between the second mobile device and the first mobile device;
- and
- in response to a third mobile device attempting a second communication with the first mobile device, sending an indication of a missed communication, from the third mobile device, via a channel of the base station device.
A machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
- determining a first mobile device has been registered with a channel of a base station device;
- based on a defined proximity of the first mobile device to a network device, receiving internet protocol address data associated with an internet protocol address of the network device;
- transmitting communication data associated with a first communication attempt from a second mobile device to the first mobile device via the network device;
- in response to a condition associated with a distance between the first mobile device and the network device being determined to have been satisfied, terminating the transmitting of the communication data between the second mobile device and the first mobile device;
- and
- in response to a second communication attempt from a third mobile device to the first mobile device, sending an indication of a missed communication, from the third mobile device, via the channel of the base station device.
