摘要:
A system and method for performing efficient network hand-off (e.g., of a mobile communication device) utilizing stored beam-forming information. For example and without limitation, before determining to perform a particular hand-off, various aspects may comprise storing beam-forming information associated with the particular hand-off. Various aspects may also, for example, comprise determining to perform the particular hand-off. Various aspects may additionally, for example, comprise (e.g., after determining to perform the particular hand-off) accessing the stored beam-forming information associated with the particular hand-off to be performed. Various aspects may further, for example, comprise utilizing the accessed beam-forming information to form a communication beam to utilize for performing the particular hand-off.

A wireless broadband access gateway having a wireless interface compatible with any of a number of commercial wireless wide area network standards provides enhanced wire area network coverage via a broadband network. The gateway may function as a wireless wide area network base station having a small coverage area, and may be communicatively coupled via a broadband access provider to a broadband wireless controller that cooperatively coordinates call management for access devices comprising cellular or mobile multimedia handsets. The broadband network may comprise cable, digital subscriber line, satellite, T1, or T3 type networks, and may carry traffic unrelated to the signaling, control, voice, and multimedia information of associated with wide area network calls. The wireless broadband access gateway may comprise a set-to-box, and may operate to convert from air interface protocols used to communicate with mobile handsets of the wireless wide area network, to/from the packet-based protocols that may be used in the broadband network.

Methods and systems for anticipatory location-based mobile communication media transfer are disclosed and may include pre-planning communication of information with a mobile communication device (MCD) based on present and future locations of the MCD and the availability of wireless services. The MCD may include location-determining capability which may include one or more of: a global navigation satellite system, triangulation, and ultra-wideband positioning. A travel route of the MCD may be anticipated utilizing the locations. The travel route may traverse one or more wireless coverage areas and the communication of information with the MCD may be configured when the travel route enters a wireless coverage area with a desired wireless capability, which may include one or more of: bandwidth, data transfer rate, cost, power requirements, channel conditions, quality of service, and secure communications capability. The information may include multimedia data. The MCD may include a plurality of wireless protocol capabilities.
摘要:
Position based WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) management. Based on either the relative position or the specific location of devices within a WPAN, communication between the various devices is managed by grouping the devices into two or more groups. In addition, the communication between theses various devices may be governed by profiles assigned to the groups (or even the actual individual devices) that are assigned based on their locations within the WPAN. The relative locations of the devices may be made using ranging that is performed by transmitting UWB (Ultra Wide Band) pulses between the various devices within the WPAN. Alternatively, each device may include GPS (Global Positioning System) functionality and information corresponding to the specific locations of the devices may be communicated between the devices, and that information may be used to group devices user and/or assign profiles to govern the communication to and from the devices.

One or more coordinating devices may be utilized to control high speed data transmission among a plurality of wireless devices utilizing 60 GHz for high speed data transmission. Control messages may be sent and/or received between each of the plurality of wireless devices and the one or more coordinating devices utilizing low rate control connections via available secondary physical layers. The secondary physical layers may comprise Bluetooth, 802.11, and/or UWB physical layers. The controlling may comprise time coordination, frequency coordination, and/or spatial coordination that may enable the wireless devices to align and/or position directional antenna that may be utilized to perform the 60 GHz high speed data transmission. The wireless devices may utilize the low rate control connections to communicate reporting messages to the one or more coordinating devices. The reporting information may enable the one or more coordinating devices to manage available resources in the plurality of wireless devices.

Methods and systems for location-based prearranged hand-off are disclosed and may include pre-arranging hand-off of communication services with a mobile communication device (MCD) based on present and future locations of the MCD and the availability of wireless services in the locations. The MCD may include location-determining capability which may include one or more of: a global navigation satellite system, triangulation, and ultra-wideband positioning. A travel route of the MCD may be anticipated utilizing the locations. The travel route may traverse one or more wireless coverage areas and the hand-off of communication services with the MCD may be configured when the MCD is expected to enter a wireless coverage area with a desired network resource allocation, which may include one or more of: bandwidth, data transfer rate, cost, power requirements, channel conditions, quality of service, and secure communications capability. Configurable MCD attributes may include antennas, beam forming, codes, and modulation.

A result may be formatted after a task is performed in a remote processing resource in a wireless system. A wireless mobile communication (WMC) device may determine a task to be performed at a remote processing resource as part of a job the WMC device is requested to perform. Once the task is performed at the remote processing resource, formatted result is generated. The formatting of the result is based on different factors that may comprise, but not limited to, display limitations at the WMC device, power limitations at the WMC device, processing load/capability at the remote processing resource, and the connectivity limitation between the WMC device and the remote processing resource. Result formatting in such situations as internet searches may comprise generating a virtual webpage at the remote processing resource, and sending a link to this virtual webpage to the WMC device.
