Abstract:
In an embodiment, there is provided a method for handling Machine to Machine M2M services in a communication system, said method comprising a step of, for charging for IP Connectivity Access Network IP-CAN bearer services in said communication system:providing global charging information for a plurality of terminals using a same M2M service.
Abstract:
In one aspect, there is provided is a method for preventing congestion at radio access in a mobile or wireless communication system, said method comprising, in an embodiment, a step of: barring a Mobile Terminal from radio access, except if said Mobile Terminal belongs to a given one of different ranges into which Mobile Terminals are split, said given range being referred to as allowed range, said allowed range changing upon time.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for facilitating WLAN access, both trusted and un-trusted, to a mobile core network. A device identity attribute is created and incorporated into the authentication and response messaging to enable the device identity to be promulgated in the communication network.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a radio network controller (BSCI), for a radio access communication network, comprising processing means (MT), upon receiving from an alarm center (CA) a message of a first SMS-CB type associated with a selected class of alarm of a selected level, containing an alarm text message addressed to mobile terminals (T) located in at least one selected cell controlled thereby, for interrupting transmission to the mobile terminals, located in each selected cell, of any message of SMS-CB type associated with a class of level lower than that of the selected alarm class, and optionally all other communication of said terminals (for example, telephone calls thereof), so that the first message may be broadcast to the mobile terminals which are located in each selected cell controlled thereby and so that some at least of said mobile terminals should transmit an alarm signal (for example radio) and display the alarm text message contained in the first message.
Abstract:
An object of the present invention is a method for the handling of user access-dependent information in a system comprising a core network subsystem accessed by an access network, said method comprising: a step wherein an entity of said core network subsystem obtains user access-dependent information from said access network, a step wherein an entity of said core network subsystem signals to another entity, in the context of a core network subsystem procedure relating to a user's terminal, user access-dependent information obtained from said access network, a step wherein an entity of said core network subsystem uses user access-dependent information obtained from said access network, for control of service delivery to said user.
Abstract:
A method of managing a token in a telecommunications network to allocate an exclusive right to one user out of a group of users who can request simultaneously to benefit from the same service; the method consisting in: a requesting user (EUA) sending (1) a token request to an application server (AS); the application server (AS) then allocating (2) a single token to a requesting user; the requesting user who has received the token then sending (3) data to a media server (MS) suitable for transporting the data; said user (EUA) sending (4) a token-release request to the application server (AS); and finally said application server (AS) broadcasting (5) a message to all of the users (EUA, . . . , EUD) indicating that the token is available.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention include a method for support of mobile-terminated service delivery over a multi-Radio Access Technology RAT and/or multi-domain mobile network wherein an User Equipment UE can be registered with multiple serving Core Network CN nodes, said method using information, referred to as termination selection information, including indication of a preferred serving CN node and/or preferred domain for mobile-terminated service delivery attempt towards said UE, said preferred serving CN node and/or said preferred domain determined as the serving CN node and/or domain most probably currently able to reach the UE, based on information referred to as termination selection support information retrieved from said multiple serving CN nodes, said method using, for said determination of the serving CN node and/or domain most probably currently able to reach the UE, termination selection support information including information on UE probability of camping per RAT.
Abstract:
In an embodiment, there is provided a method for the support of IP connections for a User Equipment UE having access to a 3GPP Core Network CN via at least a trusted non-3GPP Access Network AN that does not support Layer 2 signalling and bearer per IP connection, said method comprising: —providing that traffic carried by an IP connection is tunnelled over said AN, through a Layer-2 tunnel associated with said IP connection.
