Abstract:
This invention specifies a dynamic mobile sensor network platform that can communicate with various types of sensors that have different protocols. The platform comprises the mobile sensors and mobile sensor gateways, in which the networking protocols and application programs can be separately installed, changed and updated. The user can install new applications on an already-deployed sensor network so that it can be used in different networking environments for the new type of services.
Abstract:
In an embodiment, a dual stack (DS) client device (IPv4+IPv6) configures a header of a message for transmission to include a Via header with an IPv4 address of the DS client device, and transmits the configured message to a server via an IPv6 socket for transmission to a target client device. The target client device receives a message from a server in response to the configured message that identifies the DS capability of the dual stack client device based on a Via header that includes both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. In another embodiment, a DS client device receives a message with a Via header configuration indicating IPv4 and/or IPv6 addresses through which another client device can communicate, identifies the other client device as DS, IPv4-only or IPv6-only based on the Via header configuration and selects a target format for communication with the other client device based on the identification.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for efficient communication through a fabric network of devices in a home environment or similar environment. For example, an electronic device may efficiently control communication to balance power and reliability concerns, may efficiently communicate messages to certain preferred networks by analyzing Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) packet headers that use an Extended Unique Local Address (EULA), may efficiently communicate software updates and status reports throughout a fabric network, and/or may easily and efficiently join a fabric network.
Abstract:
A computer program product implemented in an Internet Protocol (IP) edge node positioned in a fixed access network, the computer program product comprising computer executable instructions stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium such that when executed by a processor cause the IP edge node to receive an address registration request from a residential gateway (RG), wherein the address registration request comprises an IP version six (IPv6) address of a third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) visiting mobile host connected to a local fixed network associated with the RG and a host identifier (ID) assigned to the visiting host and not to any other host in the local fixed network; establish an IP Connectivity Access Network (IP-CAN) session for the visiting host; and manage quality of service (QoS) for the visiting host independently of other hosts in the local fixed network by managing the visiting host IP-CAN session.
Abstract:
Methods, apparatus and systems may support distributed and dynamic mobility management features, including for nodes, functions and interfaces. A distributed gateway (D-GW), which may be a logical entity, may implement functionality of a PDN gateway (PGW) along with additional functionality that may support distributed mobility management (DMM). Additionally, methods, apparatus, and systems may support detecting and discovering capabilities that may be used to support dynamic IP mobility features on mobile node and networks.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for the management of communications related to telecommunications-based devices are provided. Telecommunications-based devices initiate requests to gateway computing devices corresponding to a radio communication network to establish data communications. The gateway computing device accepts the communication request and specifies an ordered preference of one or more communication protocols that will be used telecommunications-based devices accessing the wireless communication network. The telecommunications-based device processes the acceptance and selects a communication protocol from the ordered preference provided by the gateway computing device.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for allocating an IP address in a mobile communication system. The method for allocating an IP address comprises: a step of receiving a PDN connectivity request message containing IP version information, which indicates the IP version requested by user equipment, and/or user equipment capability information; a step of acquiring user equipment subscriber information from a subscription information server in response to the receipt of the PDN connectivity request message; a step of checking the IP version information contained in the PDN connectivity request message; a step of determining whether the user equipment is geographically frequently moving user equipment or rarely moving user equipment, on the basis of the user equipment subscriber information, the user equipment capability information, and/or the tracking area update frequency, if it is checked in the previous step that IP version 6 information is requested; and, if the user equipment is rarely moving user equipment, a step of transmitting, to the user equipment, a request message containing specific indication information that indicates to maintain router information even when a timer for the router information has expired, as long as the user equipment belongs to a specific PDN gateway, and containing information corresponding to the interface identification allocated for the user equipment.
