摘要:
A method and system of relocating user equipment, such as a mobile device in a network from a first mobility anchor to a second mobility anchor, includes providing an identifier address to the user equipment when the latter is anchored to the first mobility anchor or gateway. When the user equipment is relocated to be anchored at the second mobility anchor or gateway, a per-host locator address is associated with the user equipment, the per-host locator address directing network packets to be routed to the second mobility anchor. A destination address of network packets addressed to the identifier address is translated to the per-host locator address, such that the network packets are routed to the second mobility anchor, and the destination address of network packets that are addressed to the per-host locator address are reverse translated to the identifier address, and the packets are forwarded to the user equipment.

An access GW (201) receives, from a mobility management node (300), a transmission-path control signal for changing a route of only part of a data packet flow that pertains to a mobile terminal (400) and is originally relayed through the access GW (201) and a first mobility anchor (100A). In response to receiving the transmission-path control signal, the access GW (201) establishes a logical transmission path with a second mobility anchor (100B) for transferring the part of the data packet flow, and transfers the part of the packet flow to the second mobility anchor (100B) and also transfers a remaining part of the packet flow to the first mobility anchor (100A) by distinguishing a data packet received from the mobile terminal (400). As a result, for example, a mobility anchor can be switched for a part of data packets relating to the mobile terminal (400) under the initiative of the mobility management node (300).
摘要:
A method for performing route optimization between two nodes in network based mobility management, wherein each of the two nodes is associated with an access network via attachment to an access router, the access routers having directly or indirectly assigned a Mobility Access Gateway (MAG) that signals the node's presence to a Mobility Anchor (MA) which maintains the current IP address information along with location information of the node, is characterized in that some specific control for setting up a route optimized path for data packet exchange between the two nodes is assigned to the Mobility Anchors (MA).

摘要:
A method for operating a mobile network, especially for charging traffic within the mobile network, wherein monitoring of chargeable events regarding traffic from and/or to a mobile node will be performed by a Charging Function for collecting charging data. The method is characterized in that a Charging Function's sub-function for monitoring of chargeable events on a data flow level or IP (Internet Protocol) flow level will be additionally located—as an additional sub-function D-CEMF (Delegated Chargeable Event Monitoring Function)—on at least one further network element, which is different from the Charging Function and which allows to traverse breakout and/or localized traffic of the mobile node, so that the Charging Function and the further network element each are including such a sub-function, and that the additional sub-function D-CEMF will report information regarding monitored chargeable events to the Charging Function. A mobile network for carrying out the method is described.

A communication network, includes at least one mobile terminal (2) attached to a radio access network (3), the mobile terminal being enabled to run one or more applications (6), wherein the applications at least partly employ message-oriented application protocols. The network further includes a message delegation agent (5) configured to perform the steps of receiving request messages sent by the mobile terminal in order to request application related information and/or data, performing the necessary sequence of network protocol operations and associated exchanges with other network components on behalf of the mobile terminal, and for each of the request messages sending a single response message back to the mobile terminal, wherein the response message contains at least the application related information and/or data requested by the mobile terminal. Furthermore, a method for operating a communication network with improved energy efficiency for mobile terminals is also disclosed.
摘要:
A method for controlling proxy binding of a mobile node in a network that supports network-based mobility management, wherein the mobile node includes at least one network interface that is employed for attaching to the network via an access router, wherein a mobile node's binding for a network interface is initiated by a binding request, is characterized in that the mobile node's binding for a new network interface is qualified as a preliminary binding, which is not employed for downlink data transmission, and that the mobile node's preliminary binding is activated, after the mobile node's new network interface has been configured.
