Abstract:
In an embodiment, there is provided an arrangement for providing functions of a mobile IP-CAN gateway, said arrangement comprising: a first gateway node, a second gateway node, and an interface between said first and second gateway nodes, said first and second gateway nodes linked by said interface appearing to the mobile IP-CAN and to an external IP network as a mobile IP-CAN gateway interfacing said mobile IP-CAN with said IP network, said first gateway node, located in said mobile IP-CAN, providing those traffic handling functions of said mobile IP-CAN gateway, referred to as first traffic handling functions, which are related with the termination of the interface of said mobile IP-CAN gateway towards said mobile IP-CAN, said second gateway node, located in a fixed IP-CAN, providing those traffic handling functions of said mobile IP-CAN gateway, referred to as second traffic handling functions, which are not related with the termination of the interface of said mobile IP-CAN gateway towards said mobile IP-CAN.
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:
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:
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:
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.
