Methods and apparatus for managing user subscription credentials provisioned to user equipment (UEs) and to be released at some future time for reuse and repurposing are disclosed. The methods and apparatus allow previously provisioned UE credentials to be deleted from both the UEs and from the wireless network components that manage and maintain the UE credentials. Four specific methods and apparatus for provisioning UEs with SIM credentials and reclaiming of provisioned credentials are described in detail: (1) a validity timer-based approach to provisioning UEs with SIM credentials and reclaiming of provisioned credentials; (2) a release command-based approach to provisioning UEs with SIM credentials and reclaiming of provisioned credentials; (3) a user-initiated release of previously provisioned SIM credentials; and (4) a Mobile Device Management (MDM) methodology-based approach to provisioning UEs with SIM credentials and reclaiming of provisioned credentials.

Reclaiming of a provisioned credential on user equipment

A method and apparatus for planning a wireless communication network operating in a spectrum-controlled radio band and determining spectrum availability at an enterprise location. A plurality of network models are generated using machine learning techniques, the network models are provided to a network planner unit, input is received regarding intended deployment, and spectrum availability is determined responsive to the enterprise location. The number of BS/APs needed is estimated, and an enterprise network may be planned and deployed. The enterprise network is monitored, and if network operation is not meeting expected performance, the models may be retrained and the network planner updated. Spectrum availability is determined by registering a discovery group with an SAS at a location to provide spectrum availability, and repeating for each location. The method may be periodically performed to generate a time series of data which may be analyzed to provide spectrum availability.
