摘要:
To address the need for an apparatus and method for handoff from a cellular wireless network to a non-cellular wireless network (WLAN, e.g.), the present application describes an access gateway (214) and a dual mode mobile station (201) that enable such handoffs. Dual mode MSs can determine when a handoff to a non-cellular network is preferred and request a handin (302) from the non-cellular network. The access gateway provides information to the MS (304) so that it can initiate a handoff through the serving cellular network. Triggering handoffs in this manner, allows cellular networks to handle handoffs to non-cellular networks in much the same way they handle inter-MSC handoffs today, i.e., source initiated.

To address the need for an apparatus and method for handoff from a cellular wireless network to a non-cellular wireless network (WLAN, e.g.), the present application describes an access gateway (214) and a dual mode mobile station (201) that enable such handoffs. The MS provides information to the access gateway so that it can initiate a handoff with the serving cellular MSC (251). By triggering handoffs in this manner, cellular networks need not have special information about non-cellular networks to support handoffs. Instead, dual mode MSs can determine when a handoff to a non-cellular network is preferred and request a handin (302) from the non-cellular network.
摘要:
A communication network (10) utilized for providing communications between a first party and a second party includes a surveillance server (26) within a core network (10) to provide communication surveillance capability. The core network (10) may be a packet data network, and the surveillance server (26) is operable responsive to trigger information to establish communications surveillance. Communication surveillance may be established by creating duplicate bearer packets of those data packets carrying the communicated data between the parties, creating duplicate control packets of those data packets carrying in-band or out-of-band call control information between the parties and within the packet data network, and/or various combinations thereof. The duplicate bearer packets and the duplicate control packets are routed to appropriate authorized law enforcement agencies for providing surveillance.

Network (300) collects performance data associated with each network element, passes the performance data associated with each network element to a network management element (330), creating a global traffic conditioning control, communicates the global traffic conditioning control to at least one of the plurality of network elements, and re-shapes an internal control of at least one of the plurality of network elements based on the global traffic conditioning control. In another aspect, a network (400) detects congestion of a micro communication flow associated with at least one of a plurality of communication traffic flows at a first network element, detects a communication traffic flow priority at a first level associated with the congested micro communication flow, changes at a second network element, in an upstream communication flow in relation with the first network element, the priority from the first level to a second level.

In a network communication system (300) a method and apparatus includes generating a record of state information (360) associated with a service connection (370), associating the record of state information (360) to a first (320-1) of an N processing units (320-1 through N), storing the associated record of state information (360) at a first (340-1) of an N memory units (340-1 through N) corresponding to the first processing unit (320-1), multicasting the associated record of state information (360) over an area network (310) to be received by at least one of a second through N (320-2 through N) of the N processing units (320-1 through N), and storing the associated record of state information (360) at one of the N memory units corresponding to the least one of the second through N processing units (320-2 through N).
