Abstract:
One object of the present invention is a method for the support of high bit rate services in a mobile communication system, said method comprising a step wherein a network entity signals to a Mobile Station, according to signalling procedures used in case of access via a broadband Access Network, at least one bit rate higher than the maximum bit rate specified in case of access via a non broadband Access Network, based on bit rates as defined according to signalling procedures used in case of access via said non broadband Access Network.
Abstract:
In one aspect, there is provided a method for the management of Short Message SM delivery in a mobile communication system comprising an Overlaying, e.g. IP-based or CS fallback in Evolved Packet System based, SM delivery network accessed via a mobile or fixed Access Network AN which is transparent to the Overlaying SM Delivery procedure, said method comprising, in an embodiment: informing an AN entity capable of detecting User Equipment UE activity over said AN, of unsuccessful SM delivery attempt due to not reachable UE, upon detection of UE activity over said AN for said UE, said AN entity informing an entity in charge of requesting new SM delivery attempt when said UE is again reachable.
Abstract:
One object of the present invention, in an embodiment, is a method for the delivery of media streaming services to a User Equipment in a mobile communication system having a Core Network comprising a Circuit Switched CS domain, an IP network, and at least one interworking entity between said CS domain and said IP network, said method comprising the steps of: establishing a call through the CS domain towards a Remote User Agent acting on behalf of the User Equipment in the IP network, establishing a streaming session with a Streaming Server via the Remote User Agent, said call establishment interacting with said streaming session establishment to enable the delivery of streaming services to the User Equipment for said streaming session through the CS domain using CS bearer established during said call establishment.

Abstract:
In an embodiment, there is provided a method for session transfer between Access Networks for a User Equipment UE, said method including insertion in a signaling path of a Service Continuity Application Server anchoring said session in IMS, said method including: insertion of a Service Continuity Application Server V-SCC-AS located in a Visited PLMN V-PLMN for a UE roaming in said V-PLMN.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates generally to supporting bonded services at non-anchor nodes. A non-anchor gateway device is configured to support service bonding for a user device and communication with an anchor node of the user device. The non-anchor gateway device is configured to associated a set of user device data plane connections of the user device to form a bonded session for the user device where the set of user device data plane sessions includes a first user device data plane connection associated with a first access network and a second user device data plane connection associated with a second access network. The non-anchor gateway device is configured to map user device traffic of the user device between the user device data plane connections of the bonded session and a user device data plane session between the gateway device and the anchor node for the user device.
Abstract:
One object of the present invention is a method for for configuring a cellular mobile communication network with Tracking Areas, comprising: a step of configuring a Radio Access Network entity, with at least one Tracking Area it is to be associated with, a step of registering a thus configured Radio Access Network entity onto a Mobility Management function and/or Paging Coordination function, for said at least one Tracking Area.
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:
An device (A) is dedicated to controlling the implementation of functions linked with providing at least one communication service to at least one communication terminal (T1) in a service equipment (SA1) belonging to an Internet communication core network (NC). The device (A) comprises control means (CM) which, upon receipt of a request for providing the service offered by its equipment (SA1) for a given communication, are tasked with (i) deciding to implement at least one function selected from among the functions offered by the equipment (SA1); and, subsequently, (ii) inserting data signaling that decision into at least one of the signaling messages sent by the equipment for the communication in question, which are intended for at least some other service equipments (PS1, PS2, SA2, MR1) of the core network (CR), so that they can prohibit themselves from implementing the selected function for the duration of the given communication.
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.
