Abstract
A telecommunications network having enhanced or optimized quality of service (QoS) based on user behavior is described herein. A user behavior profile is generated by tracking the user's use of network services with corresponding location and metric information (e.g., QoS metrics). When a user equipment (UE) of the user connects to a network site, the user behavior profile is compared to a network profile site. The network site alters or adjusts one or more operating parameters to optimize delivery of a network service based on the user behavior profile. The user behavior profile is dynamic as it is continuously or repeatedly updated one or more records of interaction.
Claims20
A telecommunications network, comprising:
- a user equipment having an associated user behavior profile, the user behavior profile including a record of an interaction of the user equipment with a network service of the telecommunications network;
- a user optimization module programmed to:
- receive the user behavior profile associated with the user equipment,
- detect or predict the user equipment is moving towards a new network site geographic region, the new network site having a new network site profile,
- in response to detecting or predicting that the user equipment is moving towards the new network site geographic region, acquire the new network site profile,
- compare the user behavior profile to the new network site profile,
- based on the comparison of the user behavior profile to the new network site profile, identify a feature or characteristic of an operating parameter of the new network site to alter, and
- generate an instruction to cause the new network site to alter the identified feature or characteristic of the operating parameter of the new network site before or as the user equipment moves into the new network site geographic region.
A system for managing a telecommunications network, comprising:
- a user equipment having an associated user behavior profile, the user behavior profile including a record of an interaction of the user equipment with a network service of the telecommunications network;
- a user optimization module programmed to:
- receive the user behavior profile associated with the user equipment and a current network site profile for a current network site to which the user equipment is coupled,
- detect or predict the user equipment is moving towards a new network site geographic region, the new network site having a new network site profile,
- in response to detecting or predicting that the user equipment is moving towards the new network site geographic region, acquire the new network site profile,
- compare the user behavior profile to the new network site profile and the current network site profile,
- based on the comparison of the user behavior profile to the new network site profile and the current network site profile, identify a feature or characteristic of an operating parameter of the new network site to alter,
- generate an instruction to cause the new network site to alter the identified feature or characteristic of the operating parameter of the new network site before or as the user equipment moves from a geographic region of the current network site into the new network site geographic region.
