Abstract: An embodiment of the invention relates to a method of carrying out a handover process. After receiving a handover message (HOM(13)) that indicates the initiation of the handover process with respect to a moving node (13), a handover control node (20) addresses its next token (T(21)) to the moving node (13) and not to its formerly allocated downstream node (21) in its original wireless token ring system (2). In case that the moving node (13) receives said token (T(21)) and sends thereafter an acknowledgement to the handover control node (20) and an own token (T) to its allocated downstream node (21) in the enlarged wireless token ring system (2), the handover process is deemed to be completed and the moving node (13) forms the newly allocated downstream node to the handover control node (20) in the enlarged wireless token ring system (2).

Abstract: A differentiated routing system includes an electronic service in communication with an ingress gateway that receives a communication service, such as a call from a terminal, over a trunk. The service receives a request from the ingress gateway for establishing a communication service for the calling party terminal. The service obtains information associated with the calling party terminal, which may be based on the trunk and its relationship to a customer, in which the information is to be used for applying at least one of a routing decision and policy decision to the communication service, and appends a tag to the request based on the information. The service may then transmit the request appended with the information to a routing device, which may then use the information when providing the service.

Abstract: In a wireless network, a distributed ledger client maintains hardware-trust with a wireless network slice and distributed ledger nodes. The wireless network slice delivers wireless communication services to wireless user devices. When the distributed ledger client maintains hardware-trust with the wireless network slice, the wireless network slice transfers slice data to the distributed ledger client. The slice data that characterizes the delivery of the wireless communication services. The distributed ledger client transfers the slice data to the distributed ledger nodes. The distributed ledger nodes log the slice data when the distributed ledger client maintains hardware-trust with the distributed ledger nodes.

Abstract: An antenna structure of few components and reduced size which functions by switching between components to achieve radiation in three different frequency bands includes two radiating portions, a feeding portion, a matching circuit, and a first switching circuit. With the first switching circuit closed, current flows along a first radiating portion to activate a first frequency band. A second radiating portion obtains the current from the first switching circuit by coupling with the first radiating portion, to activate a second frequency band. Current in the first radiating portion can activate a third frequency band. With the first switching circuit open, current in the first radiating portion activates radiation in the first frequency band. The second radiating portion can radiate in second frequency band by coupling current from the first radiating portion. Frequency multiplication of the first frequency band can activate the third frequency band.
