REGISTRATION NOTIFICATION FOR MOBILE DEVICE MANAGEMENT
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- at least one memory that stores computer-executable instructions; and
at least one processor, communicatively coupled to the at least one memory, that facilitates execution of the computer-executable instructions to at least;
offer an incentive to a mobile device for handing off from a wireless network to a femto access point;
determine that the mobile device has attached to the femto access point; and
send a firmware update to the mobile device through the femto access point.

Abstract
System(s) and method(s) are provided for notification of registration of a mobile device with femto coverage for firmware content management. An attachment component that administers location of mobile devices or a femto access point (AP) conveys a notification to a network platform that manages firmware content updates when a mobile device for which firmware update is available hands off from wireless macro coverage onto femto coverage through the femto AP. The notification is triggered in response to firmware update notification received by the attachment component, or an update flag received by the femto AP. Upon reception of the notification, to exploit wireline bandwidth, the network platform delivers firmware content(s) update through backhaul link to the femto AP to which the mobile device is registered. Femto APs not provisioned to serve a mobile device can be incentivized to authorize the mobile device for coverage and thus facilitate firmware updates.

11. A method, comprising:
-
generating, by a system including a processor, a notification that a firmware update is available for a mobile device comprising an offer of a monetized incentive for the device to hand off from a wireless network to a femto access point; sending, by the system, the firmware update to the mobile device through the femto access point; and delivering, by the system, the monetized incentive to the mobile device in response to confirming that the mobile device has received the firmware update through the femto access point. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
