Abstract: A personal communicator in the form of a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) can communicate in multiple modes to provide a user with seamless roaming, handover, and session continuity between multiple network or peer to peer communications. The WTRU has selectively operable transceiver components that are configured for wireless mobile network communications with mobile network base stations, wireless local network communications with local network base stations, and wireless peer to peer communications with other WTRUs. Various methods are provided utilizing the WTRU's multiple network communicating capabilities.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) operating in a wireless system having at least one base station, communicates with base stations in neighboring wireless systems and conveys information regarding these neighboring wireless systems to the base station of its wireless system, which updates and stores this information for use in handover of UEs. The BS may also obtain updates directly from the base stations of neighboring wireless systems which may include a diversity of systems such as WLANS, Bluetooth, UMTS, GPRS, etc., and provide to UEs a list of those wireless systems which the UEs need not provide updates to the BS providing the list.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a Time Division Duplex - Radio Local Area Network (TDD-RLAN) which includes a Radio Access Network Internet Protocol (RAN IP) gateway that enables connectivity to the public Internet. The system may serve as a stand-alone system or be incorporated into a UMTS used with conventional Core Network, particularly for tracking and implementing AAA functions in the Core Network.
