    摘要: The present invention relates to the information transmission rate between telecommunications nodes. More particularly the invention relates to the control of the rate at which information is transmitted between access nodes separated by a core network. The present invention provides an information rate control function adapted to authorize and/or establish a communication rate for transmission of information including: determining a plurality of maximum information transmission rates along a path of communication established between the plurality of access nodes; selecting a lowest one of the plurality of maximum information transmission rates, and; authorizing and/or establishing communication at a rate no greater than the selected lowest rate. The invention is suitable for use in the transmission of voice information to and from mobile terminals in third-generation mobile access networks across an ATM core network.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a system and method of communicating operating capabilities in a telecommunication network or networks. The present invention stems from the realisation that mobile telecommunication network resources can be utilised with greater efficiency by maintaining mobile station attributes or operating capabilities at a network node associated with the mobile station. Preferably, the network node is a Visitor Location Register VLR. Additionally, the network node may be a Home Location Register HLR, a Mobile Switching Centre MSC or a Gateway Mobile Switching Centre GMSC. In particular, the invention may provide the creation of a list of operating capabilities at a network node upstream from the mobile station. Having done this, a comparison of this list with another list received from a remote telecommunication element to negotiate operating capabilities at a call set up is achieved without involving communication resources between the mobile station and the network node.

    摘要: In a mobile communications network that employs diversity combining/splitting, CN-RNC interface streamlining can be accomplished more efficiently by reconfiguring the network diversity legs, which are combined into a single data stream by the serving radio network controller, wherein the serving radio network controller is directly connected to the core network via the CN-RNC interface. Reconfiguration of the network diversity legs is accomplished by releasing the transport level connections which support the network diversity legs prior to CN-RNC interface streamlining, and establishing new transport level connections to support the reconfigured, network diversity legs subsequent to CN-RNC interface streamlining. To establish new transport level connections, the serving radio network controller dispatches binding information to each of the destination nodes associated with the network diversity legs. The destination nodes then utilize the binding information to bind network resources to the transport level connections which support the reconfigured network diversity legs between the destination nodes and the serving radio network controller.

    摘要: In a telecommunications network, broken connections can be detected and located through a next hop loopback technique. The next hop loopback technique involves the generation, transmission, and analysis of specialized data packets which attempt to traverse a telecommunications connection, node by node. The failure of a data packet to properly traverse a link can then be used to determine whether a connection is broken, to notify the network management system as to the location of the broken connection, and whether appropriate action is warranted so that the network operator can re-route data around that portion of the network. In addition, the next hop loopback technique can be triggered on an "as needed" basis by the end user, rather than on a periodic basis, thereby conserving network time and resources.
