Abstract: Generally speaking, pursuant to the various embodiments, pre-allocation of resources in a RAN of a communication system is performed. A system element having an application function determines, for a set of user equipment (UE), pre-allocation information used to select a set of cells in the RAN to which the set of UE will connect for exchanging data. The element sends a request to establish a bearer to an evolved packet core (EPC), wherein the request includes the pre-allocation information. The determining and sending actions are performed prior to one or more of the UE in the set of UE connecting to the set of cells. The EPC processes the request and returns a response to the system element, which identifies that a bearer for unicast and/or group communications has been established.

Abstract: An information distribution device performs a method for selectively distributing media associated with an incident to a plurality of responders assigned to the incident. The method includes receiving, at the information distribution device, an incident information bundle comprising media inputs associated with the incident. For each responder in the plurality of responders assigned to the incident, the information distribution device: determines a set of roles for the responder; selects a set of filtering templates designed based on the set of roles; applies the set of filtering templates to the information bundle to generate a responder information bundle that includes a subset of the media inputs that is customized to the set of roles for the responder; and delivers the responder information bundle to the responder.

Abstract: A general-purpose data terminal (242), such as a personal computer, portable computer, notebook computer, personal intelligent communicator, portable wireless terminal and the like employs a radio frequency (RF) modem (408) and is programmed to function as a two-way acknowledge back pager. The general purpose data terminal (242) maintains a table listing (600) of caller identification information and presents this information to the device user upon receipt of a page (300) from an identifiable caller. The device user may respond to the page by selecting one of a plurality of user definable responses to be transmitted back to the caller. If no response is selected the caller will receive a message informing them of the paged party's unavailability.

Abstract: A wireless communication system 200 comprises a connectionless packet network 201 coupled to a plurality of sites 203–208. Upon a first communication unit (213) initiating a call request for a 2-party call with a second communication unit (215), a call server 235 identifies respective multicast IP addresses (MC1, MC2) associated with the source and target. If the first communication unit 213, or its associated site (205) desires to send payload to the second communication unit 215, it addresses the payload to the multicast IP address (MC2) of the second communication unit, and the second communication unit 215, or its associated site 206 joins the multicast address MC2 to receive the payload. Conversely, if the second communication unit 215, or its associated site (206) desires to send payload to the first communication unit 213, it addresses the payload to the multicast IP address (MC1) of the first communication unit, and the first communication unit 213, or its associated site 205 joins the multicast address MC1 to receive the payload.

Abstract translation: 无线通信系统200包括耦合到多个站点203-208的无连接分组网络201。 在第一通信单元（213）发起与第二通信单元（215）的两方呼叫的呼叫请求时，呼叫服务器235识别与源和目标相关联的各个多播IP地址（MC 1，MC 2）。 如果第一通信单元213或其相关站点（205）希望向第二通信单元215发送有效载荷，则它将有效载荷寻址到第二通信单元的多播IP地址（MC 2），并且第二通信单元215 或其相关联的站点206加入组播地址MC 2以接收有效载荷。 相反，如果第二通信单元215或其相关站点（206）希望向第一通信单元213发送有效载荷，则它将有效载荷寻址到第一通信单元的多播IP地址（MC 1），并且第一通信 单元213或其相关联的站点205加入多播地址MC 1以接收有效载荷。

Abstract: A wireless communication system 200 comprises a connectionless packet network 201 coupled to a plurality of sites 203-208 that are in wireless communication with a plurality of subscriber units 210-217 logically arranged into a plurality of talk groups having corresponding talk group identifications. In one embodiment, each site maintains mappings 220-225 of at least one multicast address to at least one talk group identification. In another embodiment, individual subscriber units maintain such mappings 320. When a subscriber unit affiliates with a given site and talk group (501, 601), the site identifies a multicast address corresponding to the talk group. Based on the multicast address, the site can participate in traffic targeted for the multicast address and, consequently, for the talk group. In this manner, mobility Processing is decentralized, system calability is improved and call setup delays are minimized.

Abstract translation: 无线通信系统200包括耦合到多个站点203-208的无连接分组网络201，多个站点203-208与多个订户单元210-217进行无线通信，逻辑上排列成具有相应通话组标识的多个通话组。 在一个实施例中，每个站点将至少一个多播地址的映射220-225维护到至少一个通话组标识。 在另一个实施例中，各个用户单元保持这种映射320.当与给定站点和通话组（501,601）关联的用户单元时，站点标识与通话组相对应的多播地址。 基于组播地址，站点可以参与针对组播地址的流量，因此可以参与通话组。 以这种方式，移动性处理是分散的，系统可计算性得到改善，呼叫建立延迟最小化。
