    摘要: Techniques for supporting utilization of femtocell service capabilities for services are disclosed. A network device may be configured to implement a femto services gateway. The femto services gateway may reside in a femtocell and provide application programming interfaces (APIs) to services to enable applications implementing the services to make use of functionalities of femtocell service capabilities. The APIs may be a subset of or an extended set of Open Service Access Parlay or Parlay-X APIs. The services may be either femtocell-hosted, mobile network operator core network-hosted, or Internet-hosted. The femtocell service capabilities may include a framework service capability feature (SCF), a call control SCF, a user interaction SCF, a mobility SCF, a terminal capability SCF, a data session control SCF, a connectivity manager SCF, an account management SCF, a charging management SCF, a policy management SCF, a presence and availability management SCF, or a multimedia messaging SCF.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for offloading backhaul traffic are disclosed. A first base station may detect a condition triggering backhaul traffic offloading for a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). The first base station may establish a wireless connection with a second base station, and offload at least one bearer of the WTRU onto the second base station via the wireless connection. The first base station may be a macro-cell base station and the second base station may be a femto-cell base station having a wired connection to Internet and a mobile operator core network. The first or second base station may include a relay functionality and act as a relay between the WTRU and the other base station. The backhaul link may be established using a Uu, Un, X2 interface or any other interface over a licensed or license-exempt frequency, a TV white space frequency, etc.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for maintaining a connection between a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) and a blanket wireless local area network (BWLAN) are described. An inter-working function (IWF) entity in a given network access point (NAP) of the BWLAN maintains lists of WTRUs in respective states. Furthermore, the given NAP maintains a list of neighbor NAPs, and operates in accordance with a selected WTRU mobility protocol. The states may include a “not aware” (NA) state in which the given NAP is actually not aware of a particular WTRU, an “active transmit” (AT) state in which the given NAP is actively transmitting to a particular WTRU, and a “neighbor range” (NR) state for WTRUs indicated in an update report from neighbor (URN) message that the given NAP was not aware of. The WTRU mobility protocol may be a push mobility protocol or a poll mobility protocol.

    摘要: A system is disclosed for providing inter-system mobility in integrated LTE and WiFi systems. A control plane interface, referred to as the S1a-C interface, is defined between a trusted WLAN access network (TWAN) and a mobility management entity (MME) comprised in an LTE wireless access network. A user plane interface, referred to as the S1a-U interface, is defined between the TWAN and a server gateway (SGW) in the LTE wireless access network. The MME operates as a common control plane entity for both LTE and TWAN access, while the SGW operates as a user plane gateway for both LTE and TWAN. The integrated MME and SGW allow for user equipment (UE) to access the capabilities of a packet data network (PDN) through either the LTE access network or TWAN.

    摘要: Control and/or management plane interactions may be implemented between one or more wireless backhaul links and respective associated access and/or core networks. The control and/or management plane interactions may be implemented in accordance with self-optimization functionalities and may be implemented to perform radio resource management (RRM) for the one or more wireless backhaul links. Packet-based synchronization and/or delay measurement techniques may be implemented to determine estimated values for wireless backhaul induced delay. The delay estimation information may be used by one or more devices in a wireless communications network, such as a packet data network gateway (PGW), a small cell gateway (SC GW), or an access point (AP), such as a small cell access point (SC AP). Delay estimation for wireless backhaul links may be implemented in accordance with PTP message replication and/or side-channel signaling, dual synchronization with GPS and PTP signaling, and/or timestamping.
