Abstract:
A method for handling media in a make-before-break handoff between wireless networks is provided that includes communicating with a mobile station to facilitate a session handoff between two call legs of a session. The method also includes identifying a relevant frame of one of the legs, performing a cross correlation operation, generating a delay difference estimate between the two legs, and performing a level difference estimation for the two legs.
Abstract:
A method is provided that includes receiving a request from a communication device to establish a communication session with a mobile station, the mobile station being operable to roam between a private and a public network. The mobile station is signaled via a cellular data network that a call is being initiated for the mobile station. Signaling information may be exchanged with a voice gateway such that one or more voice circuits are established. A signaling pathway may be established between an Internet protocol private branch exchange (IP PBX) and the mobile station via the cellular data network. The establishment of the signaling pathway is substantially concurrent with the establishment of one or more of the voice circuits. One or more features associated with a private network are delivered to the mobile station during the communication session as an end user moves between the public and private networks.
Abstract:
A method is provided that includes receiving a request from a communication device to establish a communication session with a mobile station. The request is responded to by signaling the mobile station via a cellular data network that a call is being initiated for the mobile station. Signaling information may be exchanged with a voice gateway such that one or more voice circuits are established to accommodate voice data that may propagate between the communication device and the mobile station. A signaling pathway may be established between an Internet protocol private branch exchange (IP PBX) and the mobile station via the cellular data network. The establishment of the signaling pathway is substantially concurrent with the establishment of one or more of the voice circuits such that one or more features associated with a private network are delivered to the mobile station during the communication session.
Abstract:
According to a particular embodiment, a method for assisting in a handoff is provided that includes receiving signaling from one or more access points, which may transmit information to a mobile station. The information may be used to execute a handoff from an enterprise network to a cellular network or from the cellular network to the enterprise network.
Abstract:
A mobile station includes a first wireless interface that can couple to a first wireless network, a second wireless interface that can couple to a second wireless network, and a controller. The controller can negotiate a first wireless link with the first wireless network using the first wireless interface and establish a communication session with a remote device using the first wireless link. The controller can also detect a session handoff trigger, negotiate a second wireless link with the second wireless network using the second wireless interface in response to the session handoff trigger, and invoke a private branch exchange feature to transfer the communication session from the first wireless link to the second wireless link.
