Patent number: 10165489Abstract: Embodiments comprise measures, including methods, apparatus and computer program products, for use in access network selection in a telecommunications system. The telecommunications system comprises, at least, a mobile telephony radio access network. At one or more network nodes of the mobile telephony radio access network a preference, to offload at least some data communication in the mobile telephony radio access network to a further radio access network other than the mobile telephony radio access network, is identified. In response to this identification, an indication of the identified offloading preference is caused to be transmitted, via the mobile telephony radio access network, to at least one user equipment.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 2014Date of Patent: December 25, 2018Assignee: AVAGO TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL SALES PTE. LIMITEDInventors: Tero Heikki Matti Henttonen, Jari Jaakko Isokangas, Kaisu Maria Iisakkila, Samuli Heikki Turtinen

Patent number: 9813958Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided herein for enabling a D2D bearer to stay alive even in an instance in which a D2D connection is lost. In some example embodiments, a method is provided that comprises detecting a condition that indicates that a device-to-device bearer is to be terminated. The method of this embodiment may also include modifying a cellular bearer protocol data unit header, such that the cellular bearer protocol data unit header indicates that a cellular bearer service data unit is a device-to-device protocol data unit. The method of this embodiment may also include causing one or more device-to-device protocol data units to be encapsulated within one or more cellular bearer protocol data units, such that the one or more device-to-device protocol data units are transmitted via a cellular bearer.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2013Date of Patent: November 7, 2017Assignee: Avago Technologies General IP (Singapore) Pte. Ltd.Inventors: Jukka Tapio Ranta, Kaisu Maria Iisakkila, Samuli Turtinen, Sami-Jukka Hakola, Timo Kalevi Koskela

Patent number: 9414421Abstract: Method, operation of a method, and a result of execution of computer program instructions embodied on a non-transitory computer readable memory in a mobility management entity which determines whether a source and destination address of certain Internet protocol data flow are within a specific network in an evolved packet system for evaluating and controlling potential opportunities for device to device communication among two or more proximately located user equipment. In response to determining that the target serving gateway is the source gateway, identification information of the source user equipment is sent to a target serving gateway.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2013Date of Patent: August 9, 2016Assignee: BROADCOM CORPORATIONInventors: Samuli Turtinen, Sami-Jukka Hakola, Timo Kalevi Koskela, Jussi Kustaa Ojala, Kaisu Maria Iisakkila, Jari Jakko Isokangas

Patent number: 9344887Abstract: Method, operation of a method, and a result of execution of computer program instructions embodied on a non-transitory computer readable memory in a mobility management entity which identify, evaluate and control potential opportunities for device to device communication among two or more proximately located user equipment. The method or execution of computer instructions include, determining a context of a source user equipment and a context of a target user equipment, determining if the source and target user equipment are device to device communication compatible and determining if the source and target user equipment are authenticated for employing device to device communications. An alternative embodiment includes functionality in a base station.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2013Date of Patent: May 17, 2016Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Samuli Turtinen, Sami-Jukka Hakola, Jari Jaako Isokangas, Jussi Kustaa Ojala, Kaisu Maria Iisakkila, Timo Kalevi Koskela

Patent number: 9344955Abstract: There is provided a method, including: causing, by a second node, reception of a discovery message on a radio layer directly from a first node, wherein the discovery message indicates at least the prefix of the internet protocol, IP, address corresponding to the first node; detecting whether or not there exist an application layer connection between the first node and the second node, wherein the application layer is a higher layer than the radio layer and the detection is at least partly based on the acquired prefix; and upon detecting that the application layer connection exists, indicating the existence of the application layer connection to a network element associated with the second node.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2013Date of Patent: May 17, 2016Assignee: BROADCOM CORPORATIONInventors: Sami-Jukka Hakola, Samuli Turtinen, Timo K Koskela, Kaisu Maria Iisakkila

Publication number: 20150351054Abstract: In a method for limiting the maximum transmit power of devices operating in a wireless network, each device supporting one of plural sets of transmit power reduction capabilities, a first message comprising a value of a first parameter associated with a first set of capabilities and a value of a second parameter associated with a second set of capabilities, wherein the second set comprises more capabilities than the first set, is transmitted (400). A signal associated with a device's reception of the first message is received Initiate non-access-related Initiate non-access-related (410). A capability enquiry is transmitted to the device (415). Capability information comprising an indication of whether the device supports the value of the second parameter is received (420).Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2014Publication date: December 3, 2015Inventors: Antti Oskari IMMONEN, Jouni Kristian KAUKOVUORI, Tero HENTTONEN, Kaisu Maria IISAKKILA

Publication number: 20150304896Abstract: The application relates to a mobile terminal radio stack for D2D single channel (308) and a cellular uplink single channel (324). A D2D connection is a direct connection formed between a first mobile terminal and a second mobile terminal over the cellular radio spectrum. The D2D connection is a local communication link and is generally enabled for use over short distances. Because the D2D connection could be lost quite rapidly, handover (e.g. bearer establishment) of the D2D communications to traditional cellular communications e.g. Evolved Universal Mobile Telecommunications System Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN)) may not occur in time to synchronize the multiple mobile terminals. As a result, multiple protocol data units between the mobile terminals may be lost.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2013Publication date: October 22, 2015Applicant: RENESAS MOBILE CORPORATIONInventors: Samuli Heikki TURTINEN, Jukka Tapio RANTA, Kaisu Maria IISAKKILA, Sami-Jukka Hakola, Timo Kalevi KOSKELA
