Abstract:
A telecommunications system provides a facility for mobile nodes to communicate via one or more mobile radio networks. A data processor is provided which is operable to detect a communication from a mobile node via a first radio- coverage cell at a first time, and to detect a communication from the mobile node via a second radio-coverage cell at a second time. The data processor is then operable to determine that the difference between the second time and the first time is less than a predetermined value, and if so to identify the location of the first radio-coverage cell based on knowledge of the location of the second radio-coverage cell. In this way, communications made within a predetermined time of each other on the same mobile terminal but via different radio-coverage cells can be used to identify the location of one of those radio-coverage cells from the known location of the other of the radio- coverage cells.
Abstract:
A telecommunications system is operable to provide a facility for mobile communications to a mobile node. The telecommunications system includes a packet radio network comprising a core network and a radio network. The core network and the radio network are arranged to communicate the internet packets in accordance with a current configuration of routing and communications resources of at least one of the core network and the radio network, established in accordance with the location of the mobile node. The mobile node is operable in accordance with a packet connection procedure for establishing a communications bearer for communicating the internet packets across the mobile radio network, to generate a packet data connection activation request. The packet data connection activation request is adapted to include a service level identifier representing a priority to be afforded to communicating internet packets to or from the mobile node with respect to the internet packets received from other mobile nodes, and to communicate the packet data connection request to the core network of the packet radio network. The core network is operable to establish a communications bearer to and from the mobile node via the core network and the radio network in accordance with the packet data connection request and to adapt the current configuration of routing and communications resources of at least one of the core network and the radio network following a change of location of the mobile node with a relative priority determined in accordance with the service level identifier. Through the inclusion of the service level identifier in the packet data connection request, the telecommunications system can give a relative priority to mobile nodes requiring a higher priority data transmission thereby reducing delays or interru tions in the transmission of data.

A telecommunications system for providing internet protocol multi-media services in accordance with a service level agreement specifying conditions for a communications session in which internet protocol data is communicated to and from a mobile user equipment is provided. The system comprises an internet protocol multi-media sub-system operable to provide the internet protocol multi-media communications session to the mobile user equipment, a mobile access network for providing a mobile communications facility to the mobile user equipment for the internet protocol multi-media communications session, and a signal transfer point. The signal transfer point is operable to receive signalling data messages communicated to and from the mobile access network for providing the internet protocol multi-media communications session, to receive subscriber data of the mobile user equipment communicated to the mobile access network from the home location register of the mobile user equipment as part of a communications session establishment procedure, the subscriber data including data representing the service level agreement for providing the multi-media communications session, and to set triggering conditions, based on the subscriber data, in the mobile access network in accordance with the service level agreement. The system also comprises a local access control function operable in response to reporting messages received from the mobile access network generated by the mobile access network when the triggering conditions are satisfied to determine whether the mobile user equipment is communicating in accordance with the service level agreement, and to control the multimedia communications session in accordance with the service level agreement. By setting the triggering conditions in the mobile access network in this way, a local access control function associated with the mobile access network can assume control over communications to and from the user equipment.
Abstract:
A packet radio network provides a facility for communicating internet packets to and/or from a mobile user equipment. The packet radio network comprises a gateway support node, a serving support node and a radio network part. In response to a packet data protocol activation request message requesting a common packet data protocol context, the serving support node is operable in combination with the gateway support node to establish a common packet data protocol context in association with a packet communications bearer. The common packet data protocol context is established to communicate internet protocol packets via the packet communications bearer according to an internet protocol version specified by the mobile user equipment for one or more communications sessions. The common packet data protocol context therefore provides more flexibility, because a mobile user equipment can send both IPv4 internet packets and IPv6 internet packets as specified by the mobile user equipment. Furthermore a packet radio network according to example embodiments is provided with an arrangement for sharing the same GPRS/UMTS session, using a common packet communications bearer including the high-speed broadband radio bearers.
Abstract:
A packet radio network provides a facility for communicating internet packets to and/or from a mobile user equipment. The packet radio network comprises a gateway support node, a serving support node and a radio network controller. In response to a packet data protocol activation request message requesting a common packet data protocol context, the serving support node is operable in combination with the gateway support node to establish a common packet data protocol context in association with a common packet communications bearer. The common packet data protocol context is established to communicate internet protocol packets via the common packet communications bearer. The common packet communications bearer is shared with at least one other communications session and is formed by the gateway support node and the serving support node using a common tunnelling protocol bearer. Therefore a packet radio network is provided which can provide a common communications bearer which can be shared between different communications sessions. As a result high-speed broadband communications, such as HSDPA can be supported efficiently, because more than one communications session shares common communications resources .

Abstract:
A speech applications server is arranged to provide a user driven service in accordance with an application program in response to user commands for selecting service options. The user is prompted by audio prompts to issue the user commands. The application program comprises a state machine operable to determine a state of the application program from one of a predetermined set of states defining a logical procedure through the user selected service options, transitions between states being determined in accordance with logical conditions to be satisfied in order to change between one state of the set and another state of the set . The logical conditions include whether a user has provided one of a set of possible commands . A prompt selection engine is operable to generate the audio prompts for prompting the commands from the user in accordance with predetermined rules. The prompt selected by the prompt selection engine is determined at run-time. Since the state machine and the prompt selection engine are separate entities and the prompts to be selected are determined at run-time, it is possible to effect a change to the prompt selection engine without influencing the operation of the state machine, enabling different customisations to be provided for the same user driven services, in particular this allows multilingual support, with the possibility of providing rules to adapt the prompt structure allowing for grammatical differences between to languages to be taken into account thus providing higher quality multiple language support.
Abstract:
A roaming home location server is arranged to receive signaling data communicated between a home location server of a first home mobile radio network and a visitor location server of a second visited mobile network. The signaling data is associated with informing the home location server of the location of a mobile user equipment which has roamed from the first home mobile radio network to the second visited mobile network. The signaling data received by the roaming home location server from the visitor location server of the second visited mobile network includes a request to register the roaming mobile user equipment with the visitor location server of the first visited mobile network. The roaming home location server is arranged to register the roaming user equipment with the visitor location server of the first visited mobile network and to communicate the request signaling data to the home location server of the second home mobile radio network, and in response to rejection signaling data representing a rejection of the request to register the roaming mobile user equipment with the visitor location server of the first visited mobile network, to generate further request signaling data which has an effect of causing the home location server of the first home network to accept the registration of the roaming mobile user equipment with the visitor location register of the first visited mobile radio network.
