Abstract:
A system includes an enterprise network having a call control system that manages telephony services for wireless handsets. At a remote site, a computing device establishes a secure, wireline communication session with the enterprise network. The computing device also establishes wireless, packet-based links with one or more handsets. The device acts as a relay to enable the handsets to receive telephony services managed by the enterprise network even though outside of the service area of the enterprise network.
Abstract:
A system (10) includes an enterprise network (12) having a call control system (26) that manages telephony services for wireless handsets (20). At a remote site (16) a computing device (22) establishes a secure, wireline communication session with the enterprise network (12). The computing device (22) also establishes wireless, packet-based links with one or more handsets (20). The device (22) acts as a relay to enable the handsets to receive telephony services managed by the enterprise network (12) even though outside of the service area of the enterprise network (12).
Abstract:
A method includes identifying a plurality of communication channels at a wireless device and classifying each of the communication channels into one of a plurality of groups. The method also includes scanning the communication channels in the groups. The communication channels in at least one of the groups are scanned at a different frequency than the communication channels in at least one other of the groups. In addition, the method includes updating one or more of the groups based on the scans.
Abstract:
Identifying one or more access points in one or more channels to facilitate communication includes identifying an access point in a channel in a first channel band of a first frequency range to facilitate communication with a network. The first channel band includes a plurality of channels and the first frequency range includes a plurality of channel bands. The identified access point is used to communicate with the network. A scanning sequence is initiated in the first frequency range and a second frequency range to identify one or more access points in one or more channels to facilitate communication. The second frequency range includes a plurality of channel bands.
