摘要： Local breakout is provided by one or more nodes (e.g., a local access point and/or a local gateway) in a wireless network to facilitate access to one or more local services. In conjunction with local breakout, multiple IP points of presence relating to different levels of service may be provided for an access point. For example, one point of presence may relate to a local service while another point of presence may relate to a core network service.

摘要： Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for implementing Automatic Neighbor Relation (ANR) functions for relay nodes (RNs), home base stations (e.g., home evolved Node Bs (HeNBs), and related entities (e.g., donor evolved Node Bs (DeNBs) and HeNB gateways). X2 is designed to be an end-to-end protocol between two evolved Node Bs (eNBs). However, for the case of RNs or HeNBs, this protocol may involve a proxy function (e.g., where the DeNB acts a proxy for the RN). This creates several issues, such as how to manage a potentially very large set of cells under a gateway and how to route S1 messages used for X2 endpoint discovery. Therefore, certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to methods and apparatus for maintaining the X2 connections intelligently and hiding the large number of nodes from the X2 endpoints based on various triggers.

摘要： Providing for select Internet Protocol traffic offload (SIPTO) in a mobile communication environment is described herein. By way of example, SIPTO traffic can be facilitated via local packet gateways (P-GWs) that provide an interface to the Internet or a like data network, in addition to a centralized gateway GPRS support node (GGSN). Eligibility for SIPTO can be on a user equipment (UE) by UE basis; for instance, relying on stored subscription or account information to determine SIPTO eligibility. In particular aspects, eligibility for SIPTO can also be based on a packet network by packet network basis, or a combination of the foregoing. This enables flexibility in determining whether SIPTO can be established for a given UE in a given location, and can be based for instance on UE capability, subscription status information, data network capability, tariff rates, and so on, as well as different legal requirements of government jurisdictions.

摘要： Methods and apparatuses are provided that facilitate establishing an interface for communications between access points. Where access points operate in a same local or enterprise network, an interface can be established via the local or enterprise network instead of (or in addition to) a wireless operator network. A source access point can determine an address over which to request establishment of the interface based at least in part on an identifier of a target access point. In another example, target access point can determine an address to provide to the source access point for establishing the interface based at least in part on an identifier of the source access point.

摘要： Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate supporting VPLMN-autonomous CSG roaming in a wireless communication environment. A UE can access a CSG list server associated with a VPLMN. A trust relation can be established between the UE and the CSG list server, for example. Moreover, the CSG list server can update a VPLMN allowed CSG list associated with the VPLMN stored by the UE. Hence, the UE can receive the VPLMN allowed CSG list from the CSG list server associated with the VPLMN. Further, the UE can store the VPLMN allowed CSG list as part of an allowed CSG list. The VPLMN allowed CSG list can include one or more entries associated with the VPLMN. Moreover, the allowed CSG list can be under control of at least one operator and the UE.

摘要： The present disclosure provides systems, methods and devices for selectively adjusting a quality of service QoS of communication between a wireless access point and a UE based on both a value indicative of system resources and closed subscriber group (CSG) subscription data, such that a member has priority access to system resources over a non-member. The systems, methods and devices described herein allow an access point operating in a hybrid mode to discriminate between CSG members and non-members, without having to terminate communication links in order to provide CSG members with particular QoS levels. In some embodiments, non-members can maintain or establish new communication links with lower QoS levels in order to utilize unused and available capacity, thereby increasing the utilization of system resources available through femto nodes operating in a hybrid mode.

摘要： Access control for an access point (e.g., a cell of the access point) may be based on an access mode associated with the access point. For example, depending on the access mode, access control may involve performing a membership check for the access point. Such a membership check may be performed at a network entity, a source access point, or some other suitable location in a network. In some aspects, access control may involve performing a membership check for an access point in conjunction with a context fetch procedure. Such a procedure may be performed, for example, when an access terminal arrives at the access point after experiencing RLF at another access point.

摘要： A user terminal establishes a session with a first access point (AP0) and obtains a token associated with modem configuration information used for radio communication. The user terminal thereafter establishes a connection with a second access point (AP1) by sending the token. AP1 receives the token, obtains the modem configuration information associated with the token, and initializes an air interface protocol stack with the modem configuration information to obtain a modem-specific protocol stack for the user terminal. AP1 sends a response indicating successful connection setup. The user terminal and AP1 thereafter communicate in accordance with the modem-specific protocol stack. AP1 may attempt to fetch the session for the user terminal from AP0. If this is successful, then AP1 updates the protocol stack with the session information to obtain a complete protocol stack for the user terminal. The user terminal and AP1 thereafter communicate with the complete protocol stack.
