Patent number: 6697370Abstract: Efficient use of an ATM transmission path becomes possible by multiplexing, into a bandwidth in the bandwidth-assured individual VP, a plurality of users whose traffic volumes are beyond a predetermined value. Installing a bandwidth-unassured common VP for low traffic users makes it possible to switch from the common VP to the individual VP or vice versa under the following conditions. (1) When the user traffic volume, monitored at fixed intervals during the communications through an individual VP, drops below a predetermined threshold value, the individual VP is switched to a common VP. (2) When the user traffic volume, monitored at fixed intervals during the communications through a common VP, exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the common VP is switched to an individual VP. (3) In addition to condition (2), when bandwidth shortage takes place in common VPs, the common VPs of heavy traffic users are switched to individual VPs.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 1999Date of Patent: February 24, 2004Assignee: NTT DoCoMo Inc.Inventors: Tokuro Doi, Masatomo Nakano, Motoshi Tamura, Teruki Niwa

Patent number: 6639903Abstract: An improvement of an ATM transmission system between a mobileservices switching center and a base station in a mobile communication system. A delay time for generating/sending out a cell is minimized to ensure the information quality required for real time transmission. When the transmission interval of a call type a is T, call types b and c whose periods are twice and four time that of the call type a should be transmitted at intervals twice and four times that of the call type a. A transmitted frame assembler/disassembler 104 in the base station prepares transmitted frames 201 each including the cell slots 201-1, 201-2 and 201-3 for transferring the respective call types, and schedules such that the transmitted frames are sent out to a channel 112 at the interval T, thereby enabling the transmission to be carried out without delay.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2002Date of Patent: October 28, 2003Assignee: NTT Mobile Communications Network Inc.Inventors: Masatomo Nakano, Masafumi Onuki, Hiroshi Nakamura

Patent number: 6611505Abstract: The invention reduces an overhead operation required for re-establishment of a physical signal link. A physical signal link (layer 1 link) is switched over keeping a layer 2 link in the OSI reference model. A database 11 stores information indicating physical signal links and information indicating the maximum length of a layer 2 frame determined according to the ability of physical signal links. When a physical signal link is to be switched over, a target physical signal link is selected and a physical signal link used by the link is switched to the target physical link without releasing the single layer 2 link. The maximum length corresponding to the target physical signal link is obtained from the database 11, and layer 2 frames having the maximum length are transmitted. Switching over a physical signal link is performed in the following manner.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 1999Date of Patent: August 26, 2003Assignee: NTT Mobile Communcations Networks, Inc.Inventors: Shin Nakamura, Hiroki Morikawa, Masatomo Nakano

Patent number: 6574226Abstract: In a device and method for minimizing transmission delay of low-rate data such as voice data and for enhancing the transmission efficiency in multiplexed data communication using AAL type 2 protocol the SSCS of the high-rate data side of an AAL type 2 converter is responsible for addition and elimination of a dummy code field, error correction, and division and reassembly of data unit. A dummy code field and restorative code field are attached to a user data unit which is supplied from the higher layer in a source device, whereby a data unit is prepared. The data unit is then divided into segments 1 to m of a fixed-length, 45 octets. Successive code fields 1 to m are attached to the segments 1 to m, whereby data blocks 1 to m are prepared. The data blocks 1 to m are successively transferred to the AAL-2 converter. In a destination device, from the data blocks 1 to m, the user data unit is reassembled.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 2000Date of Patent: June 3, 2003Assignee: NTT Mobile Communications Network, Inc.Inventors: Masatomo Nakano, Hisakazu Tsuboya, Hiroshi Nakamura
