Abstract:
A method for providing switching of a media session transmitted from a content server to a user equipment from a multicast to a unicast bearer. A preparation trigger recognised by the user equipment triggers a preparation phase wherein an application server prepares for an upcoming switch by re-configuring the media session and by providing the re-configuration data to the user equipment. Subsequent to the preparation phase, a second trigger triggers a release phase, wherein the multicast bearer is released, and the media session is resumed by the unicast bearer.
Abstract:
A method is disclosed for selecting mode of operation for a mobile station in a mixed telecommunication system comprising first and second core networks, wherein the mobile station is adapted for selective operation in either of first and second modes associated with the first and second core networks, respectively. When the mobile station enters a combined cell, it is furnished with specified information for use in selecting mode of operation, the specified information usefully being combined with information relating to history of the mobile station prior to entering the combined cell. The specified information may be parameters introduced in the cell broadcast system information, parameters which are introduced in the mobile station SIM information, or may be explicit signaling messages specifically directed to the mobile station. Specific information also may be a combination of parameters from each of these sources.
Abstract:
Un método de, durante una sesión en curso, cambiar de un primer canal de televisión sobre IP dispuesto para ser suministrado a una pluralidad de nodos, a un segundo canal de televisión sobre IP de unidifusión, estando el método caracterizado porque comprende: en un nodo de recepción de televisión sobre IP, recibir (S68) el primer canal de televisión sobre IP; determinar (S69) que el primer canal de televisión sobre IP ya no está disponible; identificar (S70) un proveedor de contenido de televisión sobre IP capaz de proporcionar el mismo canal de televisión sobre IP en una unidifusión como el primer canal de televisión sobre IP; enviar (S50) un mensaje a un Servidor de Aplicación de televisión sobre IP, el mensaje que incluye una instrucción para cambiar a un canal de televisión sobre IP de unidifusión y una dirección para un nodo de proveedor de contenido de televisión sobre IP identificado; y recibir (S71) la unidifusión del canal de televisión sobre IP.

Abstract:
A system and method in a wireless telecommunication system such as a Universal Mobile Telephone System, UMTS, for selecting whether to utilize either a point-to-multipoint, PTM, or a point-to-point, PTP, connection to send media content to User Equipments, UEs, ( 11 ) present in a cell in the wireless telecommunication system. A Controlling Radio Network Controller ( 25 ) makes this decision and notifies an involved Serving RNC ( 26 ). The SRNC receives the PTM/PTP decision from the CRNC and determines whether the PTM/PTP decision is valid for a given UE connection.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to multicast communication systems and in particular to the implementation of a random access uplink channel, which can be used, e.g., for transmission of acknowledgement messages for received data. In order to prevent frequent collisions on said channel, the transmission of acknowledgement messages is spread at least over time or, additionally, with regard to another distinguishing channel property, e.g. a RACH sub-channel or RACH-signature.
Abstract:
IN A METHOD OF ROUTING A SHORT MESSAGE WITH HIGH OR LOW PRIORITY FROM A SERVICE CENTER TO A MOBILE STATION IN A PUBLIC LAND MOBILE NETWORK PROVIDING BOTH PACKET DATA SERVICE AND CIRCUIT SWITCHED SERVICE, A CHOICE IS MADE, IN ADVANCE, AS TO WHETHER THE SHORT MESSAGE SHOULD BE RECEIVED BY THE MOBILE STATION EITHER VIA A SPECIFIC ONE OF THE SERVICES OR VIA ANY OF THE SERVICES. BASED UPON THIS CHOICE IN STEP, THE PRIORITY OF THE SHORT MESSAGE SENT FROM THE SERVICE CENTER, AND AN INDICATION OF WHETHER THE MOBILE STATION IS REACHABLE VIA ONE, BOTH OR NONE OF THE SERVICES, A ROUTE VIA ONE OF THE SERVICES, A ROUTE VIA BOTH SERVICES OR NO ROUTE AT ALL IS SELECTED. IF A ROUTE VIA ONE OF THE SERVICES IS SELECTED, THE SHORT MESSAGE IS ROUTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SELECTED ROUTE. IF A ROUTE VIA BOTH SERVICES IS SELECTED, THE ROUTE VIA THE SERVICE HAVING A HIGHER PREFERENCE THAN THE OTHER SERVICE IS SELECTED, AND THE SHORT MESSAGE IS ROUTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ROUTE VIA SAID SERVICE HAVING THE HIGHER PREFERENCE. IF THE ROUTING OF THE SHORT MESSAGE TO THE MOBILE STATION IS UNSUCCESSFUL VIA THE ROUTE VIA SAID SERVICE HAVING THE HIGHER PREFERENCE, THE SHORT MESSAGE IS ROUTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ROUTE VIA THE OTHER SERVICE THE LOWER PREFERENCE.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an improved mobility handling within a radio access network ( 3 ) of an MBMS-joined mobile terminal ( 7 ) in a state in which the location of the mobile terminal is stored only at cell group (e.g. URA) level, e.g. a URA_PCH state. A context information transfer is performed at certain trigger events via the Iur-interface ( 8 a, 8 b) between a serving radio network controller (SRNC) and all potential drift radio network controllers (DRNCs) for the mobile terminal.
