Patent ID: 11089065

Abstract:
A 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) notification message may be received at a translation application at a core network of a wireless carrier network. The 3GPP notification message may include an indication of a loss of connectivity or a communication failure for an Internet-of-Things (IoT) device. The 3GPP notification message is translated by the translation application into a logically equivalent non-3GPP reachability status communication that indicates the IoT device is unreachable. The non-3GPP reachability status communication is sent by the translation application to a server of the wireless carrier network to trigger the server to queue one or more communication messages that are destined for the IoT device in a server queue. Likewise, another 3GPP notification message may be translated into an additional non-3GPP reachability status communication that causes the release of the one or more communication messages to the IoT device.
