Publication number: 20190045409Abstract: A method and apparatus may include detecting a handover that is requested by a user equipment. The user equipment moves from a first area of a first mobile-edge-computing server to a second area of a second mobile-edge-computing server. The method may also include determining whether the user equipment has an ongoing application session with the first mobile-edge-computing server. The method may also include determining whether the ongoing application session should be moved from the first mobile-edge-computing server to the second mobile-edge-computing server, if the user equipment has been determined to have an ongoing application session. The method may also include moving the ongoing application session from the first mobile-edge-computing server to the second mobile-edge-computing server, if the application session has been determined to be moved.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 27, 2017Publication date: February 7, 2019Inventors: John Juha Antero RASANEN, Pekka KUURE

Patent number: 8203974Abstract: The invention relates to method applicable in a packet-switched cellular network for voice connections, by which method a new dedicated channel can be established quickly using the existing dedicated channel of the voice connection. The establishment of the new dedicated channel utilizes the previous dedicated channel the existence of which is extended by sending to at least the receiving terminals post-speech packets according to the invention. The post-speech packets produce a 2-second delay, approximately, which is sufficient to establish a new dedicated channel between terminals participating in a session.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2003Date of Patent: June 19, 2012Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Pekka Kuure, Markku Vimpari, Jari Vallström, Timo Vittaniemi, Hannu Töyrylä
