摘要:
For use in packet-switched networks, a method is provided for using external information regarding the degree of misordering of packets, to make header compression more robust against such misordering.
摘要:
A method is provided for controlling the misordering of packets in packet delivery in radio access networks (RANs) and other packet-switched networks. In one aspect, the method involves reading header information to determine the proper sequence of arriving packets, storing at least some packets that have arrived out of order, and forwarding the stored packets in a modified order that has no more than a specified degree of misordering.
摘要:
There is provided a system and method for providing group calling in a wireless network. More specifically, in one embodiment, there is provided a method comprising receiving a request to participate a group call from a mobile device located in a wireless service area, determining whether a threshold number of other mobile devices in the wireless service area are participating in the group call, if the threshold number of the other mobile devices are participating in the group call, designating the requesting mobile device to receive a multicast transmission of the group call, and if the threshold number of other mobile devices are not participating in the group call, designating the requesting mobile device to receive a unicast transmission of the group call.
摘要:
In one embodiment, the access terminal (AT) receives a switching ratio, the AT randomly generates a serving priority value from a uniformly distributed random variable, and the AT determines whether to switch from the first carrier and attach to one of the neighboring carriers based on the serving priority value and the switching ratio.
摘要:
A method for inter-RAT idle handoff is provided by transmitting a handoff initiation signal from a cell associated with a carrier for a first Radio Access Technology (RAT) area, the cell being located in an overlap coverage area with a second RAT area and adjacent to the second RAT area. Spatial hysteresis is provided by the new triggering method to eliminate the ping-pong issue when a mobile move along the border area. The invention also reduces network resource consumption due to ping-ponging.
摘要:
In conjunction with establishment of a session between an access network and user equipment of a communication system, session-specific information is transmitted from the access network to the user equipment. The session-specific information transmitted from the access network to the user equipment comprises information to be utilized in an authentication protocol carried out between the user equipment and an authentication server of the system. For example, the session-specific information transmitted from the access network to the user equipment may comprise an identifier of a gateway coupled between the access network and the authentication server.
