摘要:
A method and system for setting up a communication with a given mobile station served by a RAN that defines one or more coverage areas. The RAN may receive an indication of a location of the given mobile station. The RAN may then use the location of the given mobile station to identify one or more wireless coverage areas associated with the given mobile station. The RAN may also receive a request to set up a communication with the given mobile station. In response, the RAN may assign a channel for the communication to the given mobile station in each identified wireless coverage area without first paging the given mobile station.

Methods and systems are provided for session restoration upon return to EV-DO. In one embodiment, a first radio network controller (RNC) receives from an access terminal a session-establishment request, where the session-establishment request requests establishment of a session for the access terminal. The first RNC determines that the session-establishment request indicates that the access terminal does not currently have a session, and responsively queries a second RNC to determine whether the access terminal currently has a session with the second RNC, which the access terminal does. After querying the second RNC, the first RNC receives session data from the second RNC, where the session data corresponds to the session that the access terminal currently has with the second RNC. The first RNC uses the received session data to set up a session with the first RNC for the access terminal.

Methods and systems are provided for dynamic selection by a mobile station of its home agent using its preferred roaming list (PRL). A mobile station maintains a PRL comprising an association between (i) a first set of data identifying a first wireless wide area network (WWAN) and (ii) a first identifier of a first home agent. The mobile station detects a broadcast of the first set of data by the first WWAN. Responsive to detecting the broadcast of the first set of data by the first WWAN, the mobile station connects to the first WWAN. Responsive to connecting to the first WWAN, the mobile station uses the first identifier to register with the first home agent.

Methods and systems are provided for considering macro-network reverse-link conditions when selecting a power level at which to send an initial access probe to a femtocell. In at least one embodiment, a mobile station receives an indication of macro-network reverse noise, and then selects an initial-access-probe transmit power level based at least in part on the value of the received indication. The mobile station then sends an initial access probe to a femtocell at the selected power level. The mobile station may receive indications of macro-network reverse noise such as a reverse noise rise (RNR), reverse frame error rate (RFER), reverse activity bits (RAB), suggested macro-network initial-access-probe transmit power levels, etc.

Methods and systems are provided for dynamic adjustment of the pilot-channel, paging-channel, and sync-channel transmission-power levels based on forward-link and reverse-link RF conditions. In an exemplary embodiment, a base station provides service on a carrier in a wireless coverage area, and computes both an Ec/Ior value and a reverse noise rise (RNR) value for the carrier. Based at least in part on the Ec/Ior value and at least in part on the RNR value, the base station adjusts at least one of a pilot-channel power level, a paging-channel power level, and a sync-channel power level for the carrier. As an example, if (a) Ec/Ior is above a first threshold and (b) RNR is below a second threshold, the base station may increase all three of the power levels, so as to improve service quality and coverage, among other advantages.

Methods and systems are provided for dynamic configuration of the EV-DO-A slot cycle index based on communication application. In an exemplary embodiment, an access terminal: (1) executes a set of communication applications, each application associated with a respective slot cycle index; (2) identifies a desired slot cycle index at least in part by determining, among the respective slot cycle indexes associated with the set of executing applications, which slot cycle index is associated with the shortest slot cycle; (3) sends a request message to an access node, requesting the desired slot cycle index; (4) negotiates with the access node to agree on a negotiated slot cycle index; and (5) checks for pages from the access node according to a slot cycle that is determined at least in part by the negotiated slot cycle index.

Methods and systems are provided for dynamic adjustment of the forward-link frame error rate (FFER) target. In accordance with an exemplary embodiment, a base station provides service to at least one mobile station on a carrier in a wireless coverage area using a first FFER target. The base station calculates an Ec/Ior value for the carrier in the wireless coverage area. The base station then selects a second FFER target based at least in part on the calculated Ec/Ior value. Thereafter, the base station provides service to at least one mobile station on the carrier in the wireless coverage area using the second FFER target.
