摘要:
An architecture to support service features for wireless calls in a wireless telecommunication system is disclosed. Service feature administration for a wireless terminal is provided by a packet data feature server in a home network that is connected to a packet data network. During call setup on behalf of the wireless terminal, the feature server is accessed via the packet data network to manage service features that are specific to the wireless terminal.
摘要:
The cellular call processor having concurrent instances of call models supports mixed media communication connections. The cellular call processor processes each of the media components of the mixed media communication connection in an independent, yet coordinated manner. Thus, each of the media components of the mixed media communication connection can be processed in an efficient media-specific manner and even directed to different destinations. The cellular call processor can implement this capability in a plurality of ways, one of which is to maintain the existing voice call model and create a new call model for each of the other call components in a media-specific manner. Alternatively, multiple instances of the same call model can be used, with each call component being served by a separate instance of the call processing code. Communications among the various instances of the call models occur only at the call setup and release and the call models can be implemented in the same physical network element or can be implemented in separate network elements that are customized for the type of call component being processed.
摘要:
A wireless terminal is disclosed that is capable of establishing a communications channel with either a public wireless network or a private wireless network on existing IS-95 CDMA facilities without changing the air interface or requiring the existence of independent private network facilities. Furthermore, a wireless terminal is disclosed that enables a user of a wireless terminal to affect which private wireless network the wireless terminal accesses, again on existing IS-95 facilities and without changing the air interface. The wireless terminal comprises two or more lists of SID/NID signals: a default list and at least one override list. Both the default list and the override list provide a different preference for which public or private network the wireless terminal accesses when a call is placed from the wireless terminal. A switch in the wireless terminal advantageously causes the wireless terminal to use either the default list of SID/NID signals or one of the override lists of SID/NID signals. The switch can be activated either manually by the user or by inserting the wireless terminal into a cradle in accordance with the present invention.

A system includes a first virtual end point processor (332) operably coupled to a plurality of channel elements (304) and a second virtual end point processor (340) operably coupled to a plurality of frame selectors (314). The system also includes at least one signaling manager (318, 334) that is arranged and constructed to establish a communication path that terminates at the first virtual end point processor (332) and the second virtual end point processor (340) prior to receiving a request for resources for a data call, such that set-up time for the data call through a wireless network is reduced.
摘要:
A wireless telecommunications system that is capable of providing multiple virtual wireless networks (e.g., a public network and/or one or more private networks) from a single IS-95 compliant CDMA radio without changing the air interface or modifying existing hardware designs. Includes the steps of broadcasting from a radio a first SID/NID signal and a FOR.sub.-- NID.sub.-- REG signal to a wireless terminal, wherein the first SID/NID signal is associated with a first set of user zones; receiving from the wireless terminal: (1) a indicium of the wireless terminal's identity, and (2) a request to register the wireless terminal based on a second SID/NID signal, wherein the second SID/NID signal is associated with a second set of user zones; transmitting the indicium of the wireless terminal's identity to a database; receiving from the database a prioritized list of user zones based on the indicium of the wireless terminal's identity; and registering the wireless terminal based on a first user zone, which first user zone is the user zone that has the highest priority in the prioritized list of user zones and that is also a member of the second set of user zones.
