摘要:
The present invention provides a method for transmitting time-sensitive packet data over a network in which multiple devices belonging to a defined set communicate with each other. The method includes receiving at least one first packet containing voice data, processing the at least one first packet using a real-time packet-enabled stack to form at least one second packet, and providing the at least one second packet to a synchronous controller for transmission over the network.

The present invention provides a method is provided for soft vertical handovers. The method includes requesting a handover from a first wireless network that operates according to a first protocol to a second wireless network that operates according to a second protocol, the first protocol being different than the second protocol, via a first wireless telecommunication link that operates according to the first protocol. The method also includes forming, in response to the handover request, a second wireless telecommunications link according to the first and second protocols, the second wireless telecommunications link being concurrent with the first wireless telecommunication link. The method further includes dropping the first wireless telecommunications link after forming the second wireless telecommunications link.

The present invention provides a method for transmitting voice packet data over a selected one of a first network in which multiple devices belonging to a defined set communicate with each other according to a first protocol and a second network in which multiple devices communicate with each other according to a second protocol, different from the first protocol. The method includes establishing at least one radio bearer between at least two devices in the first network according to the first protocol, receiving at least one voice packet that conforms to the second protocol, modifying the at least one voice packet to conform to the first and the second protocols, and transmitting the at least one modified voice packet using the at least one radio bearer.

The present invention provides methods for detecting a wireless air interface. The method includes receiving information indicative of at least one wireless access type, determining whether the information indicative of the at least one wireless access type is within an expected range, performing at least one first measurement associated with a first air interface in response to determining that the information indicative of the at least one wireless access type is within the expected range, and performing at least one second measurement associated with a second air interface in response to determining that the information indicative of the at least one wireless access type is not within the expected range.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method and an apparatus for using a bidding strategy to select a bid price for at least one of goods and services in an auction of wireless communication access requests within a marketplace of sellers and buyers to obtain a profit gain in that auction. A communications system may include a broker to select a bid price in response to a service request from a mobile communication device to an operator including a bidding algorithm for bidding a price in an auction. At an operator, a bidding algorithm, in accordance with one embodiment, may provide or use a robust, adaptive bidding strategy that may maximize the profit gain in a bidding process by assuming one of at least two forms for a probability of winning as a function of a bid price and through the use of a set of mixed strategies. The bidding strategy may identify a form, for the probability of winning, that may be currently prevalent and determine one or more parameter values defining a probability function based on the identified form. Using a state machine for a bidder's strategy, the bidding algorithm may provide a trade-off between optimizing the revenue and investigating the current conditions in the marketplace.
摘要:
A method for locating a mobile device in a wireless communications system comprised of a plurality of base stations is provided. The method comprises associating the mobile device with a first base station of the plurality of base stations. Thereafter, a paging signal is delivered from a subset of base stations associated with the first base station to the mobile device. The subset of base stations may correspond to a network active set of base stations associated with the mobile device. Thereafter, when a signal from one of the base stations in the subset of base stations is received, indicating that the mobile device responded to the paging signal from the one base station, then the mobile device is located and may be associated with the one base station for future paging attempts.
摘要:
A method for controlling a wireless communications system is provided. A plurality of substantially identical base stations, each capable of being operated as both a primary agent and a secondary agent are deployed. The secondary agent is capable of communicating with a mobile device and the primary agent is capable of communicating with a network. A network active set associated with a mobile device is formed from a plurality of the base stations. One of the base stations in the network active set is selected to operate as the primary agent, and it communicates to the other base stations that the selected base station is operating as the primary agent. Thus, communications between the network and the mobile device are routed through the primary agent and the selected secondary agent.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method of wireless communication with a mobile unit and a base station router. The method may include providing, over a first channel, configuration information indicative of a second channel associated with the base station router and the mobile unit. The method may also include providing state information associated with the mobile unit to the base station router.
摘要:
In one aspect of the instant invention, a method is provided for controlling a communications system in which base stations owned by different entities are permitted to bid in an auction to establish a communications session for a mobile device. The method comprises sending a request to a first and second base station to bid on communicating with a mobile device. A bid is received from at least one of the first and second base stations for communicating with the mobile device. One of the first and second base stations is selected to communicate with the mobile device based on the received bid.
摘要:
A method for controlling a communications session with a mobile device in a wireless communications system comprised of a plurality of base stations is provided. The method comprises selecting a plurality of base stations, where at least a portion of the base stations are adapted to operate as a secondary agent, and wherein the secondary agent is capable of communicating with a mobile device. Substantially similar control information regarding the communications session is maintained in a plurality of the secondary agents. A first one of the secondary agents is selected as a first serving secondary agent to communicate with the mobile device. The first serving secondary agent uses the control information during the communications session with the mobile device. In this manner, each of the secondary agents is capable of quickly and efficiently taking over the role of communicating with the mobile device.
