摘要:
In a technique for setting up calls in IP mobile networks, when an application level in a mobile station sends a setup message to set up a multimedia call, before sending such a message over the radio interface, the mobile station performs the appropriate procedures to setup the appropriate bearers over the radio interface and in the network to satisfy the call requirements specified by the application level in the setup message. The technique applies to both mobile originated calls and mobile terminated calls, the called mobile station performing the transport level procedures after having received a setup message and before sending a confirmation/call acceptance message back to the calling party. Furthermore, the allocation of radio resources for PDP contexts that will be used to carry the media of a multimedia IP called is delayed so that no radio resources are allocated to the PDP contexts activated before the call control signaling is exchanged. The radio resources are allocated only when the call signaling has been completed and the called party has accepted the call and indicated the call characteristics that it can support. An indication is forwarded from the SGSN to the GGSN advising that no packets are to be sent on the PDP context because there are no radio resources for the PDP context.

Methods and systems for carrying call control information after a call handover from an Internet Protocol (IP) packet switched network to a circuit switched cellular network and vice versa. The IP packet switched network includes a processing server capable of processing IP-based protocol messages. The circuit switched cellular network includes a mobile switching center. A gateway is operatively connected as a bridge between the IP packet switched network and the circuit switched cellular network. The gateway is capable of encapsulating an IP-based protocol message into a payload of a second message, and extracting an IP-based protocol message from a payload of another message. One or more user devices are capable of transmitting and receiving to/from the IP packet switched network and the circuit switched cellular network. The user devices are capable of encapsulating an IP-based protocol message into a payload of a second message, and extracting an IP-based protocol message from a payload of another message. The IP-based protocol message contains call control information that is encapsulated, transparently transferred through the switched cellular network, and extracted. The call control information is transferred between the IP packet switched network and the user device. The circuit switched cellular network may be part of a circuit switched cellular system that also includes an overlayed packet switched network. The call control information may be carried in packets between the IP packet switched network and the user device transparently through the overlayed packet switched network.

According to one general aspect, a method of using a base station (BS) comprising receiving, by the BS of a first wireless network, a notification that a mobile station (MS) is entering a semi-idle state with respect to the first network, wherein the semi-idle mode is also associated with the MS performing a handover from a first wireless network based upon a first networking standard to a second wireless network based upon a second networking standard. Further comprising storing a portion of a set of context information associated with the MS. Also comprising allocating uplink resources for the MS only to receive location update messages from the MS. And, maintaining at least some of the context information of the MS.

A system and method for producing variable length acknowledgments and requesting variable length acknowledgement signals in a shared resource network is provided. A plurality of data streams and frames are received, and receipt status information of the plurality of frames is generated. An acknowledgment frame comprising the receipt status information is produced. A length of the receipt status information is dependent on a number of the plurality of frames.

A system and method for including aggregation control information in an aggregate frame that facilitates enhanced power efficiency is provided. Aggregation control information may include lengths of frames addressed to different stations and/or transmission opportunities to different stations. A receiving station is then able to calculate an offset within the aggregate frame that identifies the position of frames addressed to the receiving station and/or offset when it can use the medium to transmit it's data. The receiving station may then enter a sleep mode and awaken at a proper time for using the medium to either receive, or transmit data on the medium. Additionally, aggregation control information may include rate information to facilitate aggregation of multi-rate data in an aggregate frame.

The invention relates to a service control device and method for controlling service execution in a communication network. A service script for a user is loaded in response to the receipt of an incoming message, and it is checked based on a comparison of the loaded service script and the incoming message whether a service is to be triggered. If a service triggering has been determined, a service is activated in an external service execution environment. Due to the fact that the service execution is not performed in the service control point but in an external service execution environment, the service logic does not have to be provided at the service control point. It provides a flexible way to define, execute, and control user-specific, operator, and third party services combining various service capabilities.

Various embodiments are described relating to encapsulation techniques or handling information services messages for wireless networks. One embodiment comprises generating at a first wireless node a request to transmit a message of a first communications specification to a second wireless node that is not authenticated nor associated with the first wireless node. This embodiment further comprises making a determination that the message is a type that may be transmitted to a node that is not authenticated nor associated with the first node, and encapsulating, based on the determination, at least a portion of the message of the first communications specification into a payload of a frame of a second communications specification. This embodiment further comprises transmitting the frame of the second communications specification from the first wireless node to the second wireless node.

The present invention is a method for provisioning services to a terminal (UE), which performs communication via at least one communication network (NW1, NW2), each network being equipped with at least one service processing entity (NW1_PE1, NW1_PE2, NW2_PE1, NW2_PE2). The method comprises the steps of: requesting, by the terminal, a specified service to be at the disposition of the requesting terminal, analyzing the request by an analyzing entity associated with the at least one communication network, deciding, by the analyzing entity, that the requested specified service is associated to a specific one of the communication networks, and in response to the decision, routing communication messages associated with the terminal via the analyzing entity to the specified service processing entity within the specified communication network.
