摘要:
A method to perform deregistration with context retention is presented. In one embodiment, the method includes storing a context associated with a mobile station in response to a deregistration request from the mobile station. The method includes determining whether or not to accept the deregistration request with context retention and sending a deregistration command message to the mobile station if the deregistration request with context retention is allowed.

An apparatus may include a transceiver and a processor circuit coupled to the transceiver. The apparatus may also include a local packet data network access module operable on the processor circuit to schedule for transmission from the transceiver to a mobility management entity (MME) a request from a user equipment (UE) for access to a local network, to generate a request for authentication to be sent to the UE, and to receive authentication information sent in response to the request for authentication. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
摘要:
A system and method for updating a security key at a base station (BS) is disclosed. The method comprises the operation of transmitting a handover command from the base station to a mobile station. The operation of incrementing a base station instance of an authentication key counter at the base station follows. The next operation of the method can be calculating a new local authentication key (AK*) at the base station using the base station instance of the authentication key counter and an authentication key (AK). The AK may be previously obtained from an authenticator. The method further includes communicating by the base station with the mobile station using the new local authentication key after a predetermined action time.

摘要:
A method, apparatus and a wireless communication system to derive security key(s) over an air link in a secure manner by sending by a mobile station over the air a single direction permutation of a mobile station ID, establishing keys with the base station and sending the mobile station real ID in a secure manner.
摘要:
A zone switching method is disclosed for use in a mixed-mode WiMAX environment. The zone switching method is useful in a WiMAX network having both 802.16e (legacy) and 802.16e/802.16m (mixed-mode, or advanced) entities, including mobile stations, base stations, and access service network entities. The zone switching method includes anchor authenticator relocation, dual security context maintenance, and security updates for both entry-before-break-capable mobile stations and for those mobile stations with slower switching speeds. The zone switching method enables an advanced mobile station to seamlessly switch from legacy to mixed-mode operation once the mixed-mode entities are available to service the 802.16m operations.

Embodiments of the present disclosure describe methods, apparatuses, and systems related to using an identity provider (IdP) as a proxy for another IdP. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
摘要:
Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, systems and/or methods of communicating location-enabling information for location estimation. For example, an apparatus may include a location-enabling information (LEI) processor to process a location-enabling message, which is transmitted between first and second location-enabling sources and receivable by a mobile device, the location-enabling message including encrypted LEI configured for enabling estimation of a location of the mobile device at a predefined accuracy based on a cryptographic key corresponding to the first location-enabling source.

Embodiments of the present disclosure describe method, apparatus, and system configurations to provide user-entered credentials for a mobile station in a wireless network. A method includes receiving, by one or more service provider devices of a wireless network from a mobile station, an indication that the mobile station is ready for activation in the wireless network and sending, by the one or more service provider devices to the mobile station during a subscription process that is performed in response to the indication that the mobile station is ready for activation, a message prompting or indicating a creation of credentials to be entered by a user of the mobile station to authenticate the mobile station on re-entry to the wireless network. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
