  • Patent number: 8565099
    Abstract: A user equipment connection supervision method in a user equipment, of a network node initiated random access procedure to force a declaration of connection failure is provided. The user equipment is connected to a wireless communication network via a wireless connection to the network node. After receiving (401) one or more commands from the network node, to perform random access procedure, the user equipment performs one or more attempts to initiate random access procedure by sending (402) one or more access request messages to the network node as a response to the received command. When no response to the sent access request message is received from the network node within a predetermined threshold value, the user equipment declares (406) failure of the wireless connection.

  • Patent number: 8565770
    Abstract: The invention relates to methods and arrangements for an event triggered DRX cycle adjustment. A user equipment located in a serving cell of a mobile communications network monitors downlink communication at predetermined time intervals when operating in discontinuous reception mode. The user equipment also performs communication parameter measurements regarding at least one of the serving cell and one or more neighbor cells. After the occurrence of a first event, the user equipment sends at least one of measurement data and a first event report to the network. The sending is triggered by the occurrence of the first event. The monitoring is caused to be performed at shortened time intervals after the occurrence of a second event, wherein the second event is defined to indicate a higher probability of receiving a handover command than the first event.

  • Patent number: 8565340
    Abstract: Methods and devices for transmitting a burst of signals in a cellular radio system supporting data transmission using EGPRS/EGPRS2 are provided. The transmission involves providing additional symbols in the EGPRS/EGPRS2 burst thereby forming a long burst and pulse shaping the long burst to form a long baseband signal whose duration exceeds the duration of one EGPRS/EGPRS2 time slot. The long baseband signal is then shortened to a shortened burst having the duration of an EGPRS/EGPRS2 time slot wherein the shortened burst fulfills the same spectrum mask requirement as the EGPRS/EGPRS2 burst, which can be transmitted.

  • Patent number: 8566583
    Abstract: A method of handling IP packets transmitted from a correspondent node to a mobile node via an intermediate node using the IPsec security protocol. The method comprises, at the correspondent node, identifying specified selector information within the part of the packet to be encrypted, and incorporating the identified information or a digest thereof into a header part of the packet which is to be sent unencrypted, transmitting the packet from the correspondent node to said intermediate node, and, at the intermediate node, receiving the transmitted packet and identifying a policy to be applied to the packet using said information or digest contained in the packet, and applying the policy to the packet.

  • Patent number: 8565706
    Abstract: A RAKE receiver is adapted to receive input from at least a first and a second antenna (104a, 104b). The RAKE receiver comprises a despreading unit (303) adapted to allocate a number (Nf) of despreading fingers to a number of delay positions of a signal which is transmitted over a channel. The RAKE receiver further comprises a delay position selection unit (305) which estimates an antenna correlation (formula 1) between the at least first and second antenna (104a, 104b) and controls the despreading unit (303) according to a first strategy for allocating the number (Nf) of fingers if the antenna correlation (formula 1) is below a predetermined threshold, and according to a second strategy otherwise. The threshold (formula 2) is selected based on at least one of the following: number of available finger in the RAKE receiver (Nf), dispersion of the channel, range of direction of arrivals (??).

  • Patent number: 8565091
    Abstract: A system, method, and network node for dynamically controlling throughput over an air interface between a mobile terminal and a radio telecommunication system. A Gateway GPRS Service Node (GGSN) receives a plurality of traffic flows for the mobile terminal and uses a Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) module to determine a target delay class for each traffic flow. The GGSN signals the target delay class of each traffic flow to a Radio Network Controller (RNC) utilizing per-packet marking within a single radio access bearer (RAB). The RNC defines a separate virtual queue for each delay class on a per-RAB basis, and instructs a Node B serving the mobile terminal to do the same. The Node B services the queues according to packet transmission delays associated with each queue. A flow control mechanism in the Node B sets a packet queue length for each queue to optimize transmission performance.

  • Publication number: 20130273914
    Abstract: The present invention relates to location based network selection in a mobile terminal moving (A to H) in a wireless communication environment set up of a home network in a home country having a border and at least one foreign network achieving radio coverage at least in part of the geographical area of the home country. A position (A to H) of the mobile terminal is monitored. Then, a network selection mode is automatically switched from a home network selection mode, enabling registration only to the home network, to an automatic network selection mode when the mobile terminal crosses the border from the home country to the foreign country. The network selection mode is switched back to the home network selection mode when the mobile terminal is again located in the home country. Thus, as long as the mobile terminal is located in the home country, it does never select any other network than the home network. When located abroad, automatic network selection applies.

  • Publication number: 20130272194
    Abstract: A method is provided of performing a session transfer with Single Radio Voice Call Continuity, SRVCC, from a Packet Switched, PS, access to a Circuit Switched, CS, access of a telecommunications session that has been established over the PS access via an IP Multimedia Subsystem, IMS, network. A request for the transfer of the session is received. An indication of a voice codec that is currently being used for the session is obtained from the IMS network. Allocation of resources for the session in the CS access network is initiated, including specifying the voice codec to be used based on the obtained codec indication. Transfer of the session to the CS access is initiated so that the session continues with use of the specified voice codec.
