摘要:
In connection-oriented switching of packet data in known mobile communications systems, resources of the transmission path between the serving node (SGSN) and the radio network subsystem (RNS) and memory resources of the radio network subsystem are reserved unnecessarily due to the burst-like nature of packet data. Thus the transmission network's limited address space and the radio network subsystem's management resources are consumed. The invention concerns such connection management in a mobile communications system, which is suitable for packet-switched data transmission. The method according to the invention is characterized in that the logical connection between the serving node (SGSN) and the radio network subsystem (RNS) is released, so that the logical connection between the serving node (SGSN) and the mobile station (MS) remains, and the released logical connection is reconnected, when relaying of user data starts.

The invention relates to selection of the implementation of a service, and particularly to selection of the implementation of a supplementary service in a mobile communication system, in a situation where a user can use different terminals the properties of which vary. In the solution of the invention, at least two different implementations are defined for a service, the terminal requirements of which differ from each other. The implementation of the service is selected (307, 308, 309, 317, and 318) on the basis of the properties of the terminal used. Thus the implementation of the services is made as optimal and flexible as possible by implementing each service function at the most useful location considering the properties of the terminal and network.

A technique for protecting location information of a subscriber in a mobile network is disclosed. A User Mobility Server (UMS) receives a first query from a first call state control function (CSCF). The UMS transmits a call setup and a subscriber identity to a servicing-call state control function (S-CSCF). The S-CSCF may have no record of the subscriber identity due to a restart are some other event. The UMS receives a second query from the S-CSCF based in part of the subscriber identity. The UMS transmits a home address of a mobile station to the S-CSCF. The UMS may also transmit a profile download to the S-CSCF.

In some mobile telecommunications systems reception of calls outside the home network may be very expensive for the called subscriber. For this reason, subscribers are given the possibility to bar incoming calls when roaming outside the home network. On the other hand, when using optimised routing, reception of calls even far from the home network may be very advantageous or even free. Hereby there are no longer any grounds for barring incoming calls. A method is presented in this invention where those network elements can be defined for the subscriber on a location information basis from which incoming calls will be relayed to the subscriber.

In cellular radio systems re-paging of a mobile station (MS) loads the mobile communications network very much, especially the limited radio path resources of the network. The present invention concerns a paging method in a cellular radio system including several cells (C1-C10). In the method a first paging of the mobile station (MS) is performed in all cells (C1-C10) of the area according to the stored location information. According to the invention, the paging method is characterized in that in the method the area according to the location information is divided according to the cell division into at least two sub-areas, each one of which is formed of at least one cell, limitation values for the number of pagings are defined for the cells on a sub-area basis and re-paging of the mobile station is limited in each cell of the area based on the said limitation values for the number of pagings.

A technique for protecting location information of a subscriber in a mobile network is disclosed which forwards a registration request from the subscriber to an S-CSCF including the subscriber's TA and then forwarding a location update from the S-CSCF to an HSS including the subscriber's TA. Upon the S-CSCF losing data, lost data may be restored to the S-CSCF from the data stored in the HSS. The HSS may store data in a non-volatile memory such as a hard disk drive. The technique may also include forwarding a registration request from the subscriber to an S-CSCF including the subscriber's TA and then forwarding a location update from the S-CSCF to an HSS and storing data in a non-volatile memory such as a hard disk drive in the S-CSCF so as to be protected against loss. Upon the S-CSCF losing data, lost data including the subscriber's TA may be restored to the S-CSCF from the data stored in the S-CSCF.
摘要:
A mobile communication system that proposes a new charging principle, according to which the roaming leg is paid entirely by the party who forwards the call to a mobile subscriber. In an exemplary embodiment, the call is first routed to the exchange of subscriber B, who has forwarded his calls. After determining that the call is to be forwarded to a mobile subscriber C, the exchange routes the call to the gateway mobile switching center (GMSC) capable of making interrogations to the home location register of subscriber C. When the charging record for the call is generated, the called subscriber B is charged for the leg between the GMSC and subscriber C. Thus, subscriber C does not have to pay for calls addressed to subscriber B. To minimize the call costs to subscriber B, as direct a route as possible is preferably used on the leg between the GMSC and subscriber C.
摘要:
A cellular radio access network and a location updating in a cordless communications system, in a cellular radio access network (1), which is connected to one or more core networks (2, 3, 4, 5) or services (SP2 to SP5), each of them having a dedicated mobility management. In a cell, identities of all those location areas are broadcast to which said cell belongs. A subscriber terminal (MS) sends to the radio access network only one location updating message irrespective of how many core networks (2, 3, 4, 5) or services (SP2 to SP5) have a simultaneously changing location area at a handover from one cell to another. On the basis of the information contained in the location updating message, the network (1) defines the core networks or services and location areas to which the location updating applies and sends a location updating message informing the new location of the subscriber or the subscriber terminal separately to each defined core network or service.
