    摘要: In one embodiment, a security gateway receives an IPSec Initiation (IPSec INIT) request from a client. The security gateway may communicate with a AAA server to authenticate the client. After authentication, the security gateway intercepts a URR Discovery request from the client. The security gateway determines registration information for a response to the registration request. The registration information may be information on where the client can locate a D-GANC. A response is generated using the determined information and sent to the client. The response to the discovery request is performed without communicating with a P-GANC. Accordingly, a security gateway is used to authenticate the client and also to respond to the discovery request. This does not require that a P-GANC function be deployed in a network. Thus, cost and processing power may be saved.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a network application may offload stateful operations to a user-plane application. In one embodiment, the network application receives state information for a user device. The network application then sends the state information to a user-plane application, which can maintain the state information. The network application may then offload a stateful operation to the user-plane application. For example, the network application may have the user-plane application perform stateful operations. Also, the network application may use the state information maintained at the user-plane application for error recovery after the network application fails. For example, the network application may recover the state information from the user-plane application after failure.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a load balancer receives a message from a tunnel termination gateway (TTG) associated with a mobile device. The load balancer may receive messages from a plurality of TTGs. A gateway node in a plurality of gateway nodes in which to send the message is determined. The load balancer then assigns a NSAPI for use by the gateway node. For example, the NSAPI may be associated with a tunnel that is generated between the TTG and GGSN. The load balancer ensures that the assigned NSAPI is not currently in use at the gateway node. Thus, no overlapping of NSAPIs may occur even though the load balancer is processing messages from multiple TTGs for multiple gateway nodes.

    摘要: In a satellite mobile telecommunications system based on the GSM standard, and using a TDMA frame structure, discontinuous transmission (DTX) mode is used to take advantage of the substantial silences which occur during normal speech. In this mode, traffic channel (TCH) data is not sent, but control of the link between a ground station and a user terminal is maintained by sending control channel data bursts (SACCH) together with silence descriptor (SID) frames. To avoid high peak to mean values of transmission power at the satellite, the emission time of the bursts is controlled so as to be uniform over the available sending opportunities. Conventional techniques for doing this cannot be used in a system which includes diversity operation. Therefore, the burst transmission time at the ground station is set in dependence on a reference provided by the user terminal which is a modified version of the reference generated for contention resolution of random access requests.

    摘要翻译: 在基于GSM标准的卫星移动电信系统中,并且使用TDMA帧结构,使用不连续传输(DTX)模式来利用正常语音期间出现的基本静音。 在该模式中,不发送业务信道(TCH)数据,而是通过与静音描述符(SID)帧一起发送控制信道数据突发(SACCH)来维护地面站与用户终端之间的链路的控制。 为了避免卫星发射功率的高峰值平均值,控制突发的发射时间,以便在可用的发送机会上是均匀的。 用于这样做的常规技术不能用于包括分集操作的系统中。 因此,根据由用户终端提供的参考来设置地面站的突发传输时间,该用户终端是为随机访问请求的竞争解决而生成的参考的修改版本。
