Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of operating a paging controller in a wireless communication system including a first network that operates according to a first radio access technology and a second network that operates according to a second radio access technology. The first network includes a first control plane entity and the second network includes a second control plane entity. The method includes providing, to at least one first base station in the first network, a request to transmit a page to a first tracking area associated with the mobile unit. The first tracking area is defined in the first network. The method also includes providing, via an interface between the first control plane entity and the second control plane entity, a request to transmit the page to a second tracking area associated with the mobile unit. The second tracking area is defined in the second network.
Abstract:
Not Mobile IP (NMIP) comprises methods for implementing macro-mobility in an IP network, wherein macro-mobility means the ability of an endpoint node to change its network-layer, e.g., IP, address without disturbing existing transport-layer and application-layer sessions, e.g., conversations. When two NMIP endpoint nodes establish a new NMIP session, they exchange pseudo-random numbers, or nonces, and store the nonces in a session table. When a first endpoint node changes its IP address, the first endpoint node sends to the second endpoint node an address-update message that contains the new IP address and the first endpoint node's nonce. If the received nonce matches a nonce in the session table, then the second endpoint node updates its protocol control blocks with the new IP address, and sends an address-update reply message to the first endpoint node. Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) can be used to secure or replace the exchange of nonces.
Abstract:
Network equipment of a wireless communication system comprises a backhaul interface for communicating with a broadcast-based backhaul network and an air interface for communicating with a plurality of mobiles. The network equipment is configured to serve as a proxy on the broadcast-based backhaul network for at least a given one of the mobiles that communicates with the network equipment over the air interface, by determining an IP address for the given mobile and sending a broadcast message over the broadcast-based backhaul network advertising itself as the proxy in association with the IP address. The network equipment may comprise at least a portion of a base station of the wireless communication system. The broadcast-based backhaul network may comprise a local area network that operates in accordance with an Ethernet protocol, and the air interface may comprise an LTE air interface or a WiMAX air interface.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a device for determining the roll angle and a system and a method for roll stabilization of a motor vehicle with a yaw rate sensor arrangement (1) of an existing driving dynamics control system which, for detecting a combined signal consisting of yaw rate and roll rate, is with its measuring axis inclined at a predetermined inclination angle (α) in relation to the vertical axis in the plane passing through the longitudinal axis and the vertical axis of the motor vehicle; and with at least one observer (3), preferably designed as a Kalman filter, which, for determining the roll angle (φ), splits the combined signal detected by the yaw rate sensor arrangement (1) into the two signal components yaw rate and roll rate. Furthermore, the roll angle (φ) determined is compared with a predetermined threshold value by means of an analyzer arrangement (2, 130), and an appropriate stabilization measure is activated by means of an activation arrangement (130) in the event of the predetermined threshold value being exceeded by the roll angle (φ) determined.
Abstract:
In a method of communication, a first type of data packet is received. The first type of data packet is at least a portion of a second type of data packet. Based on the received first type of data packet, a determination is made as to whether to expect receipt of a subsequent first type of data packet in a given time interval. A status signal is sent if the subsequent first type of data packet is not received in the given time interval as determined in the determining step. In another method of communication, a data packet is received at a physical layer over a circuit switched physical channel. A status of the data packet is determined at the physical layer. A status report is sent to a higher protocol layer based on the determination.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for controlling vehicle brake pressure as a function of the deviation of the actual slip of wheels relative to a prescribed desired slip. The desired slip is determined from the wheel speeds in such a way that the cornering forces occurring between wheel and roadway given the specific desired slip values and the adhesion conditions occurring, ensure stable handling.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of route optimization. The method may include obtaining a packet associated with a first address associated, by a home agent, with a first mobile unit and routing the packet to a second address associated with a second mobile unit along a forward link of a communication path that bypasses the home agent.
Abstract:
Example embodiments provide methods for handling the transition of a mobile device from a first network to a second network, the second network operating according to a different communications protocol from the first network. One example embodiment includes terminating forwarding of the data packets from the first network to the mobile device; rebuilding headers of unforwarded data packets at the first network; and sending the rebuilt data packets from the first network to the second network. Another example embodiment includes resetting a header compression state at the second network; receiving unforwarded data packets from the first network at the second network, the unforwarded data packets being data packets the first network had not yet forwarded to the mobile device; and sending the unforwarded data packets from the second network to the mobile device.

Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed for in-line storage of message authentication codes with respective encrypted data blocks. In one aspect, a given data block is encrypted and a message authentication code is generated for the encrypted data block. A target address is determined for storage of the encrypted data block in a memory. The target address is then modified to permit in-line storage of the message authentication code with the encrypted data block in the memory, and the encrypted data block and the message authentication code are transferred to the memory for storage at the modified address. Illustrative embodiments of the techniques advantageously facilitate secure off-chip storage of data in a processing system.
