Abstract
Example implementations described herein are directed to reducing the MME signaling overhead associated with paging and tracking area update procedures and also conserves UE battery life. This can be realized by using non-network data and applying predictive analytics algorithms to track the most probable locations of an IDLE UE, which may increase the overall efficiency of the network. In example implementations, MME signaling overhead associated with paging and TA update procedures may also be reduced, which can also conserve UE battery life.
