Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide systems and methodologies that facilitate supporting multiple access modes for a base station in a wireless communication environment.SOLUTION: The base station can leverage a hybrid, closed, or open access mode. A whitelist of a mobile device that successfully registers on the base station can be selectively updated to include a CSG ID of the base station (708). For example, the CSG ID of the base station can be added to the whitelist when the base station operates in a closed access mode, while adding the CSG ID can be skipped when the base station operates in a hybrid access mode. Additionally or alternatively, a CSG ID and an access mode indicator can be transmitted from a base station to a network node for implementing access control and/or paging optimization at the network node.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To describe techniques for archiving data exchanged between a terminal and a wireless communication network during a session. SOLUTION: Session data may be archived at a network entity in real-time while the session is in progress or may be uploaded to the network entity for archival after the session has terminated. The network entity may archive all data exchanged during the session or only data of the terminal, depending on whether authorization is received from other terminals in the session. The network entity may assign an identifier for the session and may store the identifier and other attributes for the session. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and apparatus for interworking between push-to-talk over cellular (PoC) systems and instant messaging (IM) systems. SOLUTION: An interworking entity that behaves like a PoC client to a PoC server and as an IM client to the IM server is provided. The interworking entity listens to talk bursts or audio clips from the IM server and, when receiving them, stores them in a temporary storage memory and converts them to a streaming format. The interworking entity then requests a floor from the PoC server and, once a floor is granted, streams the stored audio clips or talk bursts to the PoC server. The PoC server then distributes the clips to the PoC clients. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide techniques for supporting eCalls which may use an eCall indicator to indicate an eCall being established.SOLUTION: A terminal may generate a message including an eCall indicator and may send the message to originate an eCall. The eCall indicator may indicate (i) whether or not a call is an eCall or (ii) whether an eCall is initiated automatically by the terminal or manually by a user. A terminal may avoid sending signaling for mobility management and connection management to wireless networks except for eCalls and designated calls. The terminal may avoid performing location updating, performing registration, responding to paging requests, etc.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides for a user equipment (UE) to change from a first network to a second network for an internet protocol (IP) multimedia subsystem (IMS) call. Initially, the UE has a connection to a first network providing an IP address for the UE. The UE may receive, via the first network, a message indicating an incoming IMS call. The UE may transmit one or more IMS call setup messages on the first network at an IP layer. The UE may change the connection from the first network to a second network that uses a same identifier for the UE (e.g., the IP address). The UE may complete setup of the IMS call on the second network using the same identifier for the UE.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for session initiation in a conference. In one aspect, a method for communicating between multiple parties is disclosed. The method comprises generating, at a first device, a first message for transmission to a second device. The method further comprises receiving, at the first device, a second message for establishing a conference. The second message includes a list of one or more concurrent codec capabilities supported by the second device. The list of one or more concurrent codec capabilities supported by the second device comprises an indication of whether one or more resources usable for one or more concurrent instances of a first listed codec may instead be used for one or more concurrent instances of a second listed codec.
Abstract:
Techniques for transporting messages for location services (LCS) are described. A Mobility Management Entity (MME) may have a location session with an Evolved Serving Mobile Location Center (E-SMLC) to provide location services for a User Equipment (UE). The UE may exchange LCS-related messages with the E-SMLC to obtain location services. In an aspect, LCS-related messages exchanged between the UE and the E-SMLC may be encapsulated in Non-Access Stratum (NAS) messages and transported via the MME and a base station. In another aspect, a routing identifier (ID) may be used to associate messages exchanged between the UE and the MME with the location session between the MME and the E-SMLC for the UE. Each NAS message exchanged between the MME and the UE may include the routing ID, which may enable the MME to associate each NAS message from the UE with the location session between the MME and the E-SMLC.
Abstract:
Un procedimiento de comunicación en una entidad receptora, que comprende: recibir (202) desde otra entidad un mensaje que incluye un identificador de clase de calidad de servicio para un portador; determinar (204) que el identificador de clase de calidad de servicio recibido no está incluido en un conjunto de identificadores de clase de calidad de servicio definidos que la entidad receptora está configurada a soportar (122, 118); y seleccionar (206) otro identificador de clase de calidad de servicio para el portador del conjunto (122, 118) como resultado de la determinación; que comprende adicionalmente: usar el identificador de clase de calidad de servicio seleccionado para operaciones internas, y comunicar el identificador de clase de calidad de servicio recibido a la otra entidad; en el que la entidad receptora es un terminal de acceso (102) y la otra entidad es una entidad de red (106).
