摘要:
A method and apparatus for allowing a transparent service option transition between at least two wireless communication devices (WCDs). A first communication between a first WCD and a second WCD is established using a first service option. At some point during the first communication, a transition to a second service option, such as an asynchronous data service option, is initiated. At least one of the WCDs provides an identification code to the other WCD using a signaling protocol over the first service option. The first communication is then terminated. A second communication using the second service option is then initiated by one of the WCDs, resulting in a seamless transition to the second service option.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for reducing transmission overhead in a wireless communication system. In one embodiment, the apparatus is directed to a communication device comprising a processor for transmitting a data origination message, the data origination message initiating a data communication with a receiving station. Information needed to construct datagrams are also transmitted by the apparatus to the receiving station. The receiving station receives the data origination message and the information needed to construct datagrams and configures a packet data generator for sending datagrams to a destination device. Data network header information is constructed from information provided by the information needed to construct datagrams.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for rejecting a request for call initialization a device capable of multi-mode communications. A user of the multi-mode wireless communication device enters one or more desired communication modes into the wireless communication device, where an indication of the selected mode(s) are stored in a memory. When a page message is received by the wireless communication device, it is examined to determine if a communication mode of an incoming call associated with the page message matches the indication of the selected communication mode(s) as stored in the memory. If a match is determined, the incoming call is accepted by the wireless communication device. If the communication mode of the incoming call does not match the indication of the selected communication mode(s), the call is rejected by the wireless communication device without interrupting the user or a call already in progress.

A wireless telephone without IP capability nonetheless communicates with an infrastructure that uses IP. Virtual IP endpoints, such as Base Stations (BTS), not only communicate with the infrastructure using IP and with the telephone using over-the-air protocol, such as Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), but one of the endpoints also selects the best frame over a call received by multiple endpoints, alleviating the need for a Base Station Controller (BSC) in the infrastructure. A handoff assist entity causes frame selection to be transferred to a second BTS in accordance with a handoff algorithm.
摘要:
A wireless communication device without IP capability nonetheless communicates with an infrastructure that uses IP. To effect call set-up, an over-the-air (OTA) origination message from the wireless communication device is received by an infrastructure component, which in turn generates IP-based messages having headers that are extended to include information related to the OTA protocol. The IP-based messages with extended headers are then used internally to the infrastructure to effect call set-up.
摘要:
A system and method for transmitting CDMA call set-up parameters including authentication parameters through an IP-based infrastructure to an authenticating entity. A base station encapsulates, in SIP messages, CDMA data from wireless communication devices, with the headers of the messages indicating the presence of the CDMA-specific data in the message body. The SIP messages are routed through the infrastructure to an IS41 gateway, which strips the CDMA-specific data from the SIP messages and sends the necessary data to the authenticating entity for setting up a CDMA call.
摘要:
Method and apparatus for determining a location of an access point associated with a wireless communication network use phase measurements of a signal transmitted from an access point, at known locations to calculate the location of the access point. In some aspects, GPS information is used in conjunction with phase measurements from a signal transmitted by the access point to determine the location of such access point.
摘要:
Method and apparatus for automatically reconfiguring a wireless communication network provides for receiving information from at least one node indicating a change in the network and automatically reconfiguring the network based on the received information. In another embodiment, a method for automatically reconfiguring a wireless communication network, including at least one node that includes wireless infrastructure resources, includes determining availability of a resource at a node operating in the network and automatically configuring the network based on the availability of the resource such that the network operates properly and/or efficiently.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for configuration management for a computing device. The apparatus comprises an interface for providing available software to the computing device to be loaded onto the computing device. A processor executes a set of computer instructions to determine whether or not software resident in the computing device is authenticated or not. If the resident software is not authenticated, the processor loads the available software onto the computing device. If the resident software is authenticated, the processor loads the available software only if the available software is also authenticated.
摘要:
Systems, methods, device, apparatus, and machine-readable medium are described that provide for actuation of position determination in a wireless device based on a user input to an input mechanism associated with a group communication, such as a push-to talk and/or half-duplex communication. By marrying actuation of position determination with a user's request for push-to-talk communication (i.e., a request for a talk spurt in a PTT communication), the user is not required to perform any additional position determining initiating action to start the position determining process. In addition, the actuation of position determination is coupled with the initiation of another function on the wireless device, specifically, a push-to-talk request, which benefits from having accurate and current position data available for all current call members and/or a group administrator or the like.
