Systems and methods for optimizing keepalives or other non-interactive or background traffic from applications on a mobile device are disclosed. A keepalive optimizer can detect keepalive and other background traffic and optimize such traffic by blocking keepalives, advancing or delaying execution of keepalives, delaying repeatable background requests based on radio state, device state or characteristics, policy, transaction characteristics, application characteristics, and/or the like. The disclosed keepalive optimization methods facilitate management of traffic and/or conservation of resources on the mobile device and the network. The keepalive optimization can be performed by an application sending the keepalives or by a local proxy on the mobile device.

Optimizing keepalive and other background traffic in a wireless network

According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a method for signaling optimization in a wireless network utilizing proprietary and non-proprietary protocols. A first connection is established between an application on a mobile device and a local proxy on the mobile device, a second connection is established between the local proxy and a proxy server not located on the mobile device, and a third connection is established between the proxy server and a content server. A byte stream between client and server is communicated between the client and the server via the first, second, and third connections. The mobile device performs signaling optimization to optimize traffic over the second connection.

Application and/or server stability in signaling optimization in a wireless network for traffic utilizing proprietary and non-proprietary protocols

Systems and methods of optimizing network transaction traffic originating at a mobile device are provided. The systems and methods includes identifying network transaction parameters corresponding to an application and utilizing the network transaction parameters to execute a network transaction in advance of an expected schedule or after a delay to optimize the network transaction traffic.

Systems and methods of optimizing background traffic originating at a mobile device are provided. The systems and methods include identifying a background request to be delayed for transmission to a wireless network, delaying the background request for a period of time when a state of the mobile device meets a delay criteria, and responsive to detecting a change in the state of the mobile device or expiration of the period of time, transmitting the background request to the wireless network.
