Patent number: 10498791Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relates to methods, and apparatuses for exchanging the preferred MSRP chunk sizes between an end-point and a remote end-point, directly or via a server using SDP offer/answer mechanism. The preferred MSRP chunk size may be the maximum allowed MSRP chunk size for the end-point and may be determined in accordance with network/link conditions and/or internal configuration. The end-point uses its preferred MSRP chunk size and the received preferred MSRP chunk size of the remote end-point to determine the MSRP chunk size that will be used to segment the messages from the end-point to the remote-end-point over the MSRP session. The preferred MSRP chunk size can be renegotiated during an ongoing MSRP session.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2015Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ)Inventors: Cristina Badulescu, Nancy M.

Patent number: 7286488Abstract: A communications network configuration for delivery of multimedia services comprises a packet network to which a plurality of terminal devices are connected, a service provider network for providing multimedia services to the terminal devices, a virtual circuit switched network intermediate the packet and service provider networks, and a gateway distributed over the circuit switched network. The distributed gateway comprises a client application unit interfacing the circuit switched network to said packet network and a virtual channel interface unit interfacing the circuit switched network to the service provider network. The client application unit binds logical channels for a multimedia call to association tags for respective virtual channels of the circuit switched network and forwards said association tags to the virtual interfacing unit.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 1998Date of Patent: October 23, 2007Assignee: Nortel Networks, LimitedInventors: Nancy M Greene, Simon D Brueckheimer, Vahe Balabanian

Publication number: 20030214958Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for linking control and bearer for a multimedia session in an ALL-IP network, and to an Access Gateway (AGW) and an Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) server therefore. For doing so, a Mobile IP Request message is received at the AGW from a terminal. The AGW requests authentication of the terminal at the AAA server. The AAA server allocates a Proxy Session Control Manager (P-SCM) for the terminal. Then, the AAA sends an identity of the P-SCM to the AGW, and stores the identity of the allocated P-SCM for the terminal.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2003Publication date: November 20, 2003Inventors: Lila Madour, Nadia Bishai, Nancy M.
