  • Patent number: 7327734
    Abstract: Disclosed are a method and a device for offering a packet data service during to a handover of a user terminal from one radio network controller to another. To avoid the loss of data during SRNS relocation, there is provided a method for checking the validity of the next expected receive PDCP sequence number sent from a receiver PDCP layer with the send PDCP sequence number of the first transmitted but not yet acknowledged PDCP SDU and the send PDCP sequence number first unsent PDCP SDU of the sender PDCP layer. A PDCP protocol structure is reconstructed to support a lossless SRNS relocation in the packet service domain, and control information and operational procedure therefore are newly defined. As a result, the lossless SRNS relocation is achieved in the packet service domain and the mobility of data communication is ensured.

  • Patent number: 7324003
    Abstract: An emergency alert message data structure, an emergency alert message processing method and a broadcast receiver are disclosed. When a state of emergency where a channel change to an emergency broadcast channel is required occurs, a transmitting stage includes information regarding the emergency broadcast channel and emergency alert contents in text form in an emergency alert message and transmits the resulting emergency alert message. A receiving stage receives the emergency alert message and determines whether the channel change to the emergency broadcast channel included in the emergency alert message is required. If the channel change to the emergency broadcast channel is determined to be required, the receiving stage changes the current channel to the emergency broadcast channel, and displays the emergency alert contents in text form included in the emergency alert message on a portion of a screen of the emergency broadcast channel in a scrolling manner.
