    摘要: Cellular mobile networks can include unlicensed-radio access networks, which comprise access point controllers (303) connected via a fixed broadband network (302) to access points (301) that communicate with mobile stations (1) via unlicensed radio. The access points are connected to the broadband network from any location by the subscriber. In order to alleviate the configuration required to enable handover each access point controller is assigned to a location area defined in the conventional cellular network. A mobile station entering the mini-cell of an access point sends the access point information concerning the location area for the last cell of conventional network it communicated with. With this information, the access point obtains from a memory (40) the fixed broadband address of the access point controller assigned to this location area. The access point uses this address to establish a connection with the access point controller assigned to handle its current location.

    摘要: Cellular mobile networks can include unlicensed-radio access networks, which comprise access point controllers (303) connected via a fixed broadband network (302) to access points (301) that communicate with mobile stations (1) via unlicensed radio. The access points are connected to the broadband network from any location by the subscriber. In order to alleviate the configuration required to enable handover, each access point controller is assigned to a location area defined in the conventional cellular network. A mobile station entering the mini-cell of an access point uses an indication of the location area for the last cell of a conventional network it communicated with to query a lookup table (which may be a DNS server) for the address of an access controller assigned to this location area. The mobile station then establishes a connection with the access controller to enable communication with a core network portion of the conventional network.

    摘要: According to a first aspect, it is provided a method performed in a network node of a cellular communication network. The method comprises the steps of: obtaining an indicator to secure a traffic availability for a connection, wherein the traffic availability is related to how likely the connection will remain operable; determining whether the network node can secure resources to support the traffic availability; allocating resources for the connection when resources can support the traffic availability; and transmitting a positive response when the network node can secure resources to support the traffic availability. Corresponding network nodes, wireless nodes, computer programs and computer program products are also provided.

    摘要: The disclosure relates to a method in a wireless device for transmitting an uplink signaling message in a wireless communication network. The wireless device is connected to a first network element over at least a first and a second wireless link. The method comprises determining (1810) a transmission mode among alternative transmission modes for transmitting the uplink signaling message. The alternative transmission modes comprise: transmitting on the first wireless link; transmitting on the second wireless link; and transmitting on both the first and the second wireless links. The method also comprises transmitting (1820) the uplink signaling message according to the determined transmission mode. The disclosure also relates to a corresponding method performed in the network element, and to the corresponding apparatus.
