Patent number: 8787380Abstract: A reliable and flexible method for controlling traffic within a network structure without the addition of remarkable complexity to the core network is provided, the structure including a PDN (Packet Data Network), an operator core network with a DNS (Domain Name System) server, a HeNB (Home evolved Node B) or HNB (Home Node B) and/or eNB (Evolved Node B) or NB (Node B) and a UE (User Equipment) that is associated with the HeNB or HNB and/or eNB or NB. On the basis of a predefinable routing policy the DNS server is controlling whether a traffic from a UE to a destination address within a local network associated to the HeNB or HNB or eNB or NB or within a PDN and/or vice versa will be routed via the core network or directly via the local network in support of local network protocol access or selected network protocol traffic offload.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2010Date of Patent: July 22, 2014Assignee: NEC Europe Ltd.Inventors: Tarik Taleb, Stefan Schmid

Publication number: 20140169332Abstract: A method for supporting selection of PDN connections for a mobile terminal, in particular in decentralized mobile operator networks, wherein the mobile terminal is connected to an access point, wherein the mobile terminal is in active mode having at least one ongoing IP session to a Packet Data Network (PDN) via a PDN gateway-first PDN gateway-, wherein monitoring whether a more suitable PDN gateway-second PDN gateway-than the first PDN gateway becomes available for the mobile terminal is performed, and wherein in case of detecting the second PDN gateway, any new IP session of the mobile terminal to the PDN is established by initiating a new PDN connection to the second PDN gateway, while an already ongoing session associated with the existing PDN connection to the first PDN gateway is kept. Furthermore, a mobile terminal with PDN connection selection support is disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 5, 2012Publication date: June 19, 2014Applicant: NEC EUROPE LTDInventors: Tarik Taleb, Gottfried Punz

Publication number: 20130214615Abstract: For allowing a prolongation of the operation time of individual network elements and/or of the whole network in a simple way a method for operating a wireless network is claimed, wherein the network comprises a number of network elements being configured for wireless communication with each other and for wireless energy transfer from one network element to another network element and wherein energy will be transferred wirelessly from one network element to another network element according to negotiations between the network elements for optimizing a network element's individual and/or network's overall energy budget and/or lifetime. Further, an according network is claimed, preferably for carrying out the above mentioned method.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 1, 2010Publication date: August 22, 2013Applicant: NEC EUROPE LTD.Inventors: Tarik Taleb, Dominique Dudkowski

Publication number: 20120314688Abstract: A method for routing traffic within a network for allowing an efficient offloading of LIPA/SIPTO traffic from the core network even upon handoff of a UE to a new cell, wherein the network includes a core network and a LIPA/SIPTO (Local IP Access/Selected IP Traffic Offload) enabled network, wherein traffic between a UE (User Equipment) and the LIPA/SIPTO enabled network—a so called LIPA/SIPTO traffic—is broken out at a local breakout point and wherein a mobility support for ongoing broken out LIPA/SIPTO traffic will be provided by an MMF (Mobility Management Function) for realizing a continuation of the LIPA/SIPTO traffic upon a handoff of the UE from one cell to another cell. The continuation of the LIPA/SIPTO traffic will be performed by a forwarding mechanism providing direct LIPA/SIPTO traffic between local breakout points of different cells. A network for carrying out the method is also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2011Publication date: December 13, 2012Applicant: NEC EUROPE LTD.Inventors: Tarik Taleb, Stefan Schmid
