Abstract:
A method (500) and a system (300) for implementing point-to-point communications. The method can include identifying (504) at least a first portion (348, 350) of a prefix (344, 346) of a network address, the prefix corresponding to a particular topological region (326, 328) of a communications network (302). The method further can include generating (506) a unique prefix (360, 362) by updating the prefix with an identifier (356, 358) that is unique within the topological region of the communications network, and assigning (508) the unique prefix to a node (304- 314) of the communications network.
Abstract:
The method includes representing (72) first (12) and second (14) signal transmission sources in a memory (50), the first signal transmission source (12) having a first set (45) of signal radiation patterns and the second signal transmission source (14) having a second set (45) of signal radiation patterns. One signal radiation pattern (40, 42, 44) for transmission of a frequency is selected (74, 76) from both the first set and the second set of signal radiation patterns. A power value of the frequency is determined (78) at a point within the wireless communication system (10), and the determined power level of the frequency is compared (80) with a desired power level of the frequency. After the comparison, another signal radiation pattern (40, 42, 44) is automatically selected (82) for transmission of the frequency from one of the first set (45) and the second set (45) of signal radiation patterns.
Abstract:
A communication system (100) reduces set up time for an inter-technology handoff of a multi-mode mobile station (MS) (102) from a source network (110) and first radio frequency (RF) technology to a target network (120) and second RF technology by pre-establishing, prior to a handoff determination, a registration state and an authentication of the MS in association with the target network and second RF technology. In order to pre-establish the registration state and authentication, the MS exchanges messaging of the second RF technology with the second network via the source network and first RF technology. To facilitate the exchange, the MS includes shims (536, 540, 544) in a second protocol stack (530) associated with the second technology, which shims intercept second protocol stack signaling and redirect the intercepted signaling to a first protocol stack (510) of the MS, associated with the first technology, for tunneling to the source network.
