Patent number: 9614979Abstract: A method encoded in a memory of a specialized network node configured for allowing an SMSC to be informed of the location of the UE originating a short message via an IP-SM-GW and also of the location of the receiving UE when a short message is delivered through an IP-SM-GW. Additionally the disclosed method ensures that charging systems can correlate IP-SM-GW charging requests for a short message with any charging requests generated by the SMSC for the same message.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2015Date of Patent: April 4, 2017Assignee: Mitel Mobility Inc.Inventors: Robert B. Huggett, Jyotirmay Bareria

Publication number: 20170086155Abstract: A system, method, and network node for synchronizing supplementary services settings between a database in a circuit-switched network and a database in a packet-switched network are disclosed. An exemplary communication system synchronization node is configured to receive a message containing a change to a supplementary service setting associated with a user equipment (UE) connected to a circuit-switched (CS) network or a packet-switched (PS) network, and communicate the change to the supplementary service setting to one or both of the HLR and the HSS, so that the supplementary service settings in both the HLR and the HSS are updated to reflect the change to the supplementary service setting.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 23, 2016Publication date: March 23, 2017Applicant: Mitel Mobility Inc.Inventors: Ghassan Naim, Anish Sharma, Bejoy Pankajakshan

Patent number: 9560515Abstract: A synch server comprises a first interface configured to transmit and receive MAP messages, and communicate with a Home Location Register (HLR) in a Circuit-Switched (CS) network, a second interface configured to communicate with a Home Subscriber Server (HSS) in an IP-Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network, and a third interface configured to transmit and receive Extensible Markup Language (XML) Configuration Access Protocol (XCAP) messages. A synch function module is configured to receive a message containing a change to a supplementary service setting associated with a User Equipment (UE) connected to a Circuit-Switched (CS) network or an IMS network, and communicate the change to the supplementary service setting to both the HLR and the HSS so that the supplementary service settings in both the HLR and the HSS are updated to reflect the change to the supplementary service setting.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2014Date of Patent: January 31, 2017Assignee: Mitel Mobility Inc.Inventors: Carlo Brianza, Ian McLean Pattison, Richard Arthur Bodin, Tomasz Maslewski

Patent number: 9549317Abstract: A request for an IP address for a client device having a first identifier information is received from an AP device. The request for the IP address is associated with a first communication protocol. The first identifier information is compared to a second identifier information. The second identifier information is associated with a second communication protocol. The second communication protocol is different from the first communication protocol. The IP address for the client device based on comparing.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2012Date of Patent: January 17, 2017Assignee: Mitel Mobility Inc.Inventors: Tamanna Jindal, Sashidhar Annaluru, Mukesh Garg

Patent number: 9544337Abstract: An Evolved Packet Core network comprises a converged media packet gateway control element including a GTP-C function of SGW, PGW, and P-CSCF and ATCF functions. The network further comprises at least one converged media packet gateway bearer element disposed remotely from the converged media packet gateway control element, in communication and under the management of the converged media packet gateway control element. The at least one converged media packet gateway bearer element includes SGW and PGW bearer plane terminating S1-U, and ATGW and IMS-AGW NAT functions.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2014Date of Patent: January 10, 2017Assignee: Mitel Mobility IncInventors: Srinivas Eswara, Pardeep Kohli, Ian Bjorn Maclean

Patent number: 9526005Abstract: A telecommunication network comprises an ICS GW configured to receive an access request from a UE; an HSS FE configured to retrieve A3/A8 authentication vectors including an A3/A8 authentication response from an HLR, and further configured to encode the A3/A8 authentication vectors as AKA authentication vectors and send the AKA authentication parameters to an S-CSCF; the ICS GW configured to receive an authentication challenge from the S-CSCF with encoded A3/A8 authentication vectors, and further configured to detect the A3/A8 authentication vectors and issue an A3/A8 authentication challenge to the UE; and the ICS GW configured to receive an A3/A8 authentication response from the UE, and further to encode the A3/A8 authentication response into an AKA authentication response and sending it to the S-CSCF for comparison.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2015Date of Patent: December 20, 2016Assignee: Mitel Mobility Inc.Inventor: Michael Brett Wallis

Patent number: 9521145Abstract: A secure communication channel between an access point (AP) device associated with a wireless network and a mobile gateway (GW) device of a packet core network is established. Data is exchanged between the wireless network and the packet core network through the secure channel. A client device (UE) is authenticated through the secure communication channel. Device identity information is received from the AP device. A session request is sent to the packet core network. An IP address for the device is received from the packet core network. The communication between the AP device and the packet core network becomes secure without need to run an IP secure protocol on the UE that saves the battery power on the UE. Establishing the fully secure communication between the UE and the packet core network while saving the UE power provides a significant advantage for the mobile technology world.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2011Date of Patent: December 13, 2016Assignee: Mitel Mobility Inc.Inventors: Yogesh Bhatt, Sashidhar Annaluru, Mukesh Garg
