Abstract: The embodiments herein relate to a method performed by a mobility node for handling a UE which has moved from an old to a new location. The mobility node retrieves UE context from a database. The mobility node determines whether there is a change of mobility node and first gateway at the new location. When there is a change of the first gateway, the mobility node initiates setup of a tunnel between a second gateway and a new first gateway. When there is a change of the mobility node, the mobility node provides a subscriber server with UE context for a new mobility node at the new location. The mobility node transmits updated UE context to the database.

Abstract: A light filtering transparent or semitransparent visor intended to prevent flash blindness and other hazards associated with the adverse affects associated with bright lights impacting the eyesight of occupants of a vehicle. In the certain embodiments, the visor comprises a heavily tinted body intended to filter the bright rays of sun to enable safe viewing of the sun through the filter. Embodiments of the apparatus are designed to be repositioned directly in the line of sight between the viewer and the sun.

Abstract: A quite simple and effective way for simplifying the mobile system for the mobile broadband customers, thereby lowering the equipment costs and in the end allowing for more competitive flat rate fees, is to direct the traffic from mobile broadband devices (110) to dedicated gateways (120). The mobile broadband device (110) is comprised in a user equipment (105) in a wireless communication network (100). The wireless communication network (100) comprises a network node (115) is arranged to be connected to the mobile broadband device (110). First, the mobile broadband device (110) sends (200, 300) an attach request message to the network node (115). The attach request comprises an information element indicating that the device (110) is a broadband device. Then, the device (110) receives (301) an attach accept message from the network node (115) comprising address information of the dedicated gateway (120).

Abstract: A packet data core network node and methods supporting packet data communication are disclosed. In one embodiment, a packet date core network node in a first core network comprises a first communication mechanism for control plane handling and mobility management, a second communication mechanism for user plane management and a mechanism for communication with a dual mode mobile terminal over a first radio network. The packet data core network node comprises or communicates with a mapping function for mapping between first radio bearers used in the first core and radio networks and second radio bearers of a type different from the type of the first radio bearers and used in a second core radio network at handover of a dual mode mobile terminal from the first core network to the second core network or vice versa. Another embodiment is a dual mode mobile terminal including such mapping function.

Abstract: The embodiments herein relate to a method in a network node for enabling handover of a communications service from a circuit switched, referred to as CS, network to a packet switched, referred to as PS, network, wherein a user equipment is located in the CS network and having the communications service in the CS network.

Abstract: A packet radio data network includes a gateway node (GGSN), at least one serving node (SGSN) coupled to the gateway node, a plurality of radio access nodes (RAN) coupled to the serving node (SGSN), the packet radio network transporting packet data from an external packet data network. The external packet data network includes, an Internet Service Provider (ISP), to mobile stations (MS) wirelessly attached to radio access nodes (RAN). A mobile station (MS) issues a membership report message requesting content of a specific multicast group, whereupon the gateway node (GGSN) issues a multicast context activation message to the serving node (SGSN). The serving node (SGSN) informs the radio access network (RAN) that the mobile station is joining the respective multicast group and sends a multicast activation response to the gateway node (GGSN).

The serving node (SGSN) informs the radio access network (RAN) that the mobile station is joining the respective multicast group (3) and sends a multicast activation response to the gateway node (GGSN) (4).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for caching mobile station location information comprising a gateway packet switch node for receiving and transmitting data packets between a plurality of visiting packet switch nodes and at least one communication network and a cache memory located within the gateway packet switch node for caching location information received with a data packet from a transmitting mobile station. A communication packet, containing information pertaining to the location of a transmitting mobile station is received by the gateway packet switch node. The location information is extracted from the received communication packet and cached. When an incoming data packet is received by the gateway packet switch node, a determination is made as to whether the location information for the destination mobile station is stored within the cache. If the location information is stored within the cache the location information is retrieved from the cache and the data packet is routed to the mobile station.

Abstract: A method, and associated apparatus, for providing a wireless communication station with a dynamically-assigned address which provides a temporary address to route data to the wireless communication station. A temporary address is assigned to the wireless communication station to permit data, such as packet data, to be communicated between the wireless communication station and a correspondent host. Once communication with the wireless communication station is terminated, the temporary address can be reassigned and reused pursuant to subsequent communications with another wireless communication station.
