摘要:
The disclosure is directed to a mobile communication device that is capable of accessing different types of networks such as a circuit-switched network and a packet-switched network. While communicating over the packet-switched network, the device negotiates a sleep interval that is longer than the ordinary interval available using the packet-switched network. In this manner, the device wakes less frequently and thereby conservers power. A buffering system is included so that data directed towards the device while it is asleep may be buffered for later delivery when the device awakens.

Methods and apparatus for determining the quality of service of a network are disclosed. A disclosed methodology for determining quality of service for a network includes determining at least two metrics reflective of network parameters in at least two different protocol layers of the communication network. The metrics are then compared with respective threshold values, and quality of service for the network is determined based on the comparison of the metrics with the respective threshold values. Corresponding apparatus executing the methodology are also disclosed.
摘要:
Broadcast or multicast traffic is classified into different types of traffic and different transmission schedules associated with each of the different types of traffic. The different types of broadcast and multicast traffic may be implemented in an 802.11-based system where an access point is configured to classify broadcast and multicast traffic into different types and assign different transmission schedules to each of the different traffic types. An associated wireless station may thereby wake from a power save mode only at intervals corresponding to delivery times of the types of traffic that the wireless station has elected to receive. In some aspects the different types of broadcast and multicast traffic may comprise user plane traffic and control plane traffic.

The disclosure is directed to a mobile communication device that is capable of accessing different types of networks at the same time. The mobile device registers a public ID with a first IP address over a first access network and also registers the same public ID with a different IP address over a second access network. Additional registrations and IP addresses may occur as well. Of particular benefit is that the different registrations are active during at least some concurrent period of time. This allows a user of the mobile device to have improved continuity of service, select preferred access methods, and receive different data services simultaneously.

The disclosure is directed to an access terminal, and method for selecting an access point for handing off the access terminal. The access terminal may include a processor. The processor may be configured to access a list access points and select one of the access points on the list based on the current traffic state of the access terminal.

摘要:
A mobile device that is capable of accessing different types of networks such as a circuit-switched network and a packet-switched network is disclosed. A dynamic anchoring mechanism is invoked when the mobile device determines that a circuit-switched call is to be handed over to a packet-switched network.
