Systems and methods for acquiring network control data of a user equipment in cellular networks

Abstract:

A device of a network may receive, from a network device of the network, data identifying a radio access technology (RAT) type associated with a user equipment of the network, an extended discontinuous reception (eDRX) timer associated with the user equipment, and a power saving mode (PSM) timer associated with the user equipment. The device may store the data identifying the RAT type, the eDRX timer, and the PSM timer, and may provide, to an application server, a notification that includes the data identifying the RAT type, the eDRX timer, and the PSM timer. The data identifying the RAT type, the eDRX timer, and the PSM timer may cause the application server to control or troubleshoot the user equipment.
