A method for content transmission in a cellular network having a collection of cellular zones. The method includes obtaining a statistical trace associated with the cellular network, comprising attributes of historical content chunks received from prior users of the cellular network and trajectories of the prior users moving within the cellular zones, analyzing the statistical trace to identify a portion of the cellular zones as drop zones, allocating drop zone transmission bandwidth to the drop zones based on a pre-determined criterion, receiving, subsequent to the allocating, a transmission request for a content chunk from a mobile device of a user outside the drop zones, delaying transmission of the content chunk while the mobile device remains outside of the drop zones, and transmitting the content chunk in response to detecting the mobile device within the drop zones.

Allocating drop zones in a mobile communication network

A method for providing location based service in a cellular data service network (CDSN) by analyzing accounting data packets of the CDSN to determine a user mobility pattern, classifying application data packets of the CDSN into pre-determined application categories, analyzing the accounting data packets and the application data packets to associate the user mobility pattern and one of the pre-determined application category, comparing a newly received accounting data packet and the user mobility pattern to identify a match, and providing, in response to identifying the match, the location based service to a user based on the pre-determined application category.
