摘要:
A wireless network assigns a single IP address to the wireless device, which assigns this IP address over to a TE2 device coupled to the wireless device. The wireless device derives a private IP address for communication with the TE2 device. The wireless device forwards packets exchanged between the TE2 device and the wireless network using the single IP address. The wireless device exchanges packets with the TE2 device by (1) using the private IP address for outbound packets sent to the TE2 device and (2) performing either address-based routing or packet filtering on inbound packets received from the TE2 device. The wireless device exchanges packets with the wireless network by (1) using the single IP address for outbound packets sent to the wireless network and (2) performing packet filtering on inbound packets received from the wireless network.

An ordered list of precedence values includes a number of blocks of precedence values. An operating system receives filters from an application. The operating system assigns a precedence value to each filter from the available block of precedence values that has the highest priority. Precedence values are assigned to maintain a precedence order specified by the application. Filters and their assigned precedence values are communicated to an entity that filters packets by applying the filters in the order of their precedence values. Filters for an application can be added, deleted, or modified without affecting the precedence values of other filters for other applications. If an assignment is to be made when the lowest priority block is not available, then a repacking operation is performed to fill unused blocks in the list. The repacking is performed to reduce signaling associated with communicating reassigned precedences values to the filtering entity.
摘要:
A generic quality of service (QoS) model that is not dependent on network technology is used to support QoS for communication networks utilizing different network technologies. The generic QoS model may include a superset of all QoS parameters for all network technologies being supported, e.g., 3GPP and 3GPP2. An application at a device may specify QoS for a traffic flow based on the generic QoS parameters in the superset. The generic QoS parameters may be converted to QoS parameters that are specific to a serving network. The converted QoS parameters are exchanged with the serving network and are used while exchanging traffic with the serving network.

摘要:
The disclosure is directed to techniques for supporting failover between different network protocol addressing families in a wireless communication network. The techniques may be implemented in a mobile wireless communication device. A logical interface selects a physical interface for access to the network in response to a request from an application module. The network access request issued by the application module need not specify a network protocol type. Instead, upon selection of the physical interface, the logical interface notifies the application of the network protocol type associated with the physical interface. The logical interface may select a physical interface corresponding to a particular network protocol when available, based on connection preferences specified by the application module or a global setting within the device. If a physical interface corresponding to the network protocol is not available, however, the logical interface selects a physical interface corresponding to a different network protocol.

A system and method for configuring a data communication between a terminal computing device and a communication network, wherein the terminal computing device connects to the communication network via a mobile device is tethered to a terminal computing device and acts as a wireless modem. A second handshake operation between the computing device and mobile device occurs after a handshake operation between the mobile device and network occurs to negotiate a variety of communication protocol parameters controlling the data communication. The variety of communication protocol parameters negotiated between the mobile device and network are used in the negotiation of communication protocol parameters during the second handshake operation between the computing device and mobile device.
摘要:
Methods, apparatus, and computer-readable media for management and arbitration of dedicated mobile communication resources for mobile applications are provided. Mobile applications can be given a priority level that establishes an importance with respect to one or more other mobile applications and at least one mobile resource. If competing applications attempt to access the mobile resource concurrently, access can be provided to an application having higher priority level. Furthermore, control of a resource can be taken away from an application having lower priority in order to affect control of such resource for a higher priority application. In one aspect, a privilege code of an application can be verified prior to establishing control of the resource for the application, to mitigate a likelihood of inappropriate transfer of resources. Accordingly, the subject disclosure provides for management of dedicated resources for a mobile processing environment to effect important device functions with minimum delay.
摘要:
An apparatus operable in a communication system and having the capability to discard an internet protocol address is described. The apparatus is configured to receive an assignment of a first internet protocol address of a first type for a first application and a second internet protocol address of a second type for a second application for a data connection to a network. The apparatus is also configured to determine that the apparatus is currently not able to handle both the first internet protocol address and the second internet protocol address. The apparatus is further configured to determine an internet protocol address to discard, and discard the determined internet protocol address.
摘要:
A wireless data network delivers packets from a network router to a mobile station so that each application running on the mobile station receives an adequate quality of service (QoS). The mobile station sends configuration messages to the network router containing prioritized filters associated with each application. The router filters incoming IP packets into IP flows having the appropriate QoS for the corresponding application. The configuration messages consume valuable air interface resources. Network resources are conserved by assigning precedence values to filters in such a way that fewer configuration messages are needed to reorder the filters when new filters are added. Precedence values for existing filters are spread out in one portion of the precedence space. When the precedence values in that portion are insufficient to accommodate new filters with the correct priority, both new and existing filters are reassigned precedence values in an unassigned portion of the precedence space.
