Publication number: 20130072190Abstract: A method and device for initiation a mobile originating service-based inter-system handover At least two radio access networks (RANs) of different types, i.e. RAN of a first type and a RAN of a second type. A dual-mode mobile terminal communicates with the communication system via the RAN of the first type. The initiation of the inter-system handover is included in a transmission including a bearer capability (BC) field. The BC field indicates that a requested service is only operable with the RAN of the second type. In particular, at least one BC field is set to a parameter value, which serves as indication for the receiving network and its processing entities, respectively, which receiving network indicated to carry out the inter-system handover initiated by the mobile terminal.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2012Publication date: March 21, 2013Applicant: Vringo Infrastructure, Inc.Inventor: Antti PITKAMAKI

Publication number: 20130039310Abstract: A process and system for controlling selection of which MS is to receive the next packet data transmission on a forward channel and selection of which plural MCS is to be used for the packet data transmissions on the forward channel. A process for controlling selection of MCS method to be used by a BTS to transmit data packets over a forward shared channel to a MS stores information at the BTS, the information containing MCS methods which may be selected to transmit data packets over the forward shared channel to the MS; receiving from the MS at the BTS a quality indication of transmission of data packets over the forward channel to the MS; and selecting a MCS method from a plurality of MCS methods which may be used to transmit data packets on the forward channel dependent upon the received quality indication.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 14, 2012Publication date: February 14, 2013Applicant: Vringo Infrastructure, Inc.Inventors: Liangchi (Alan) Hsu, Mark W. Cheng, Giridhar Mandyam

Publication number: 20130010759Abstract: The invention relates to a method and system for performing packet switched handover in a mobile communication network. The system comprises a mobile node, a first and a second packet switching node. The method enables the parallel sending of logical link layer frames from the first and the second packet switching node. This is achieved so that the mobile node does not reject incoming frames received from two logical link layer entities having different states. The benefits of the invention are related to improved quality of service and the avoiding of gaps in received data during handover.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 14, 2012Publication date: January 10, 2013Applicant: Vringo Infrastructure, Inc.Inventors: Tuomas NIEMELĂ„, Kari P. Kauranen, Miikka Huomo

Publication number: 20130014183Abstract: A broadcast system provides consumers with inducement to consume portions in which they may not have an active interest, such as commercials. To dissuade consumers from leaving the vicinity of the broadcast receiver or from switching to other broadcasts while a first broadcast airs such a portion, the first broadcast is augmented by a second content entity calculated to be of interest to the consumer. Interaction is required of the consumer in order for him to receive the second content entity, which necessitates his presence and attention.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 14, 2012Publication date: January 10, 2013Applicant: Vringo Infrastructure, Inc.Inventor: Ari NIEMINEM
