Abstract: At least one call paging message is sent to a wireless device to establish a call session with the wireless device, and it is determined whether a response is received from the wireless device to any of the at least one call paging message. When the call session is not established and a voice message is received which is intended for the wireless device, a timer comprising a timer value is initiated, wherein the timer value is based on a number of the at least one call paging message sent to the wireless device and whether a response is received from the wireless device to any of the at least one call paging message. A voice message page is sent to the wireless device when the timer expires, and a channel is established with the wireless device to provide the voice message to the wireless device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for allocating resources between frequency bands in a wireless network. A wireless device may establish multiple default channels for wireless communication with two or more cells associated with different frequency bands. The default channels on each of the cells may be used to communicate control signals between the two or more cells and the wireless device. Application requirements may be determined and each of the cells may assign a dedicated channel for service, and one of the dedicated channels may be selected to provide service to the wireless device based on the determined application requirements.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for implementing an inter-frequency measurement procedure in a wireless communication network. A group of wireless devices are selected based on a selection criteria. A first parameter value associated with a first access node is received from the selected group of wireless devices at the first access node. Proximity of a second access node to the first access node is estimated based on the received first parameter value. A second parameter value that is similar to the first parameter value and associated with the first access node is received from a non-selected wireless device. Quality indicators for the non-selected wireless device are monitored at the first access node. A relationship between the received first parameter value and the quality indicators for the non-selected wireless device is determined. An inter-frequency measurement procedure based on the determined relationship is initiated.

Abstract: A first access node receives from a wireless device in communication with the first access node an identifier of a second access node detected by the wireless device. It is determined that a communication link has not previously been established between the first access node and the second access node based on the identifier. The wireless device is instructed to provide a signal level of a signal from the second access node, and when the signal level of the second access node signal meets a criteria, a communication link is established between the first access node and the second access node.

Abstract: First data packets for a wireless device are received at a network element and are encoded into at least one second data packet, the second data packet comprising at least two of the first data packets. The at least one second data packet is sent from the network element to the wireless device.

A number of permitted retransmissions of the at least one second data packet from the access node to the wireless device is adjusted based on the round trip time and the frequency band load.

Abstract: In systems and methods of selecting an access node for wireless device communication, it is determined that a first loading of a first access node meets a first loading criteria, and a wireless device is selected which is in communication with the first access node and which detects a second access node. A request is sent to the second access node to accept a handover of the wireless device, and a timer is started comprising a first timer value when the request is rejected by the second access node. A second request is sent to the second access node to accept a handover of the wireless device to the second access node when the timer expires, and the wireless device is instructed to change from communicating with the first access node to communicating with the second access node when the second request is accepted by the second access node.

Abstract: A first wireless communication network stores a buffer of data that is concurrently being sent to a wireless device via a first active connection with a second wireless communication network. A first indicator is received by the wireless device. The first indicator is associated with an availability of an access node of the first wireless communication network to serve the wireless device. Based on the first indicator and based on a second indicator of a signal strength associated with the access node, the wireless device ends the first active connection. The first wireless communication network provisions a second active connection to the wireless device. The first wireless communication network provisions the second active connection in response to a request by the wireless device. Data not already received by the wireless device is provided, via the second active connection, to the wireless device.
