Patent number: 9826491Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided to enable the provision of a mechanism by which a device participating in a collaborative application may synchronize with other participating devices. A method may include providing for operation of a collaboration application, providing for transmission of a multicast reference time request to a wireless access point, receiving a multicast reference time message, establishing a reference time in response to receiving the reference time message, and synchronizing the collaboration application using the reference time. The synchronization of the collaboration application may be performed in response to receiving an acknowledgement message from collaborating devices. The method may further include providing for transmission of a second multicast reference time request in response to not receiving an acknowledgement message from the collaborating devices. The multicast reference time message may be received from the wireless access point.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2013Date of Patent: November 21, 2017Assignee: Nokia Technologies OyInventors: Timo Tapani Aaltonen, Juha Pekka Luoma, Tapani Antero Leppanen, Eero Tapani Aho

Patent number: 9485044Abstract: An electronic service guide (ESG) is provided by transmitting announcements describing multimedia sessions, such as video streams. Sessions are organized into a session directory (28) which is split into two parts: a full session directory (291) and an updated session directory (292). A first kind of announcement describes all sessions in the full session directory. A second kind of announcement describes sessions in the updated session directory. Once a client has received a description of the full session directory, it need only listen to announcements of the second type so as to learn of any updates to sessions.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2003Date of Patent: November 1, 2016Assignee: NOKIA TECHNOLOGIES OYInventors: Juha-Pekka Luoma, Dominique Muller, Toni Paila

Patent number: 8068832Abstract: A method and system for performing multicast broadcast handover in a wireless data network are disclosed. Each cell broadcasts administrative announcements over a logical channel to mobile terminals. The announcements indicate which multicast broadcasts are available in specified cells, as well as connection information for each cell. The mobile terminals may tune to a multicast broadcast as defined by the administrative announcements. While tuned to the multicast, the mobile terminal continues to receive administrative announcements. As the broadcast fades out or is otherwise interrupted, the mobile terminal can retune to the same multicast broadcast in another cell, based on the cell connection information included in the previously received administrative announcements.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2001Date of Patent: November 29, 2011Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Toni Paila, Jani Paikela, Lin Xu, Juha-Pekka Luoma, Rod Walsh

Patent number: 7606587Abstract: The invention relates to a mechanism for performing multicast transmission in a cellular network. In order to enable establishment of resources only in cells containing members of the multicast group and to avoid congestion on the uplink channel, a multicast service notification is transmitted to mobile stations, thereby informing members of the multicast group of an upcoming multicast session. The moment for a response to said multicast service notification is selected in the mobile stations and a presence report is sent from at least one of said mobile stations at the response moment of said at least one mobile station. The presence report or reports are received within a radio access network, and radio resources are established for multicast transmission in a cell of the cellular network when the presence report(s) received in said cell meet(s) predetermined criteria.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2002Date of Patent: October 20, 2009Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Lin Xu, Juha-Pekka Luoma, Sinikka Sarkkinen, Rod Walsh
