Abstract: A method and equipment by which a radio access network of a wireless network communicates to a user equipment wireless communication device an indication that the user equipment is to flush one or more send buffers. A flag is included in a message to indicate that the one or more send buffers are to be flushed. The message is for example a message indicating reconfiguration is to be performed, and the flag (if set) is to be interpreted by the user equipment as indicating that the one or more send buffers are to be flushed prior to performing the reconfiguration. A corresponding method and equipment for a user equipment wireless communication device are also provided.

Abstract: An AA communication method using an AA communication device including a plurality of AA communication units includes: receiving a signal transmitted from a receiving terminal in each AA communication unit of UN-A and UN-BF, and measuring a receive level of the signal transmitted from the receiving terminal for each communication unit; calculating a transmit weight vector based on received signals corresponding to the signal transmitted from the receiving terminal for each AA communication unit; calculating a received power based on a measured value of the receive level and the transmit weight vector for each AA communication unit; comparing the received powers of the AA communication units, and, to match the received powers to the received power of the unit having a lowest received power, making a downward correction of an amplitude of the transmit weight vector for each of the other communication units; and transmitting a signal using the transmit weight vector after the correction by each communication unit

Abstract: A method for remote controlling a wireless communication device by a message includes the following steps: the wireless communication device receives a message; and the wireless communication device executes a corresponding operation according to the data stored in the TP-User-Data (TP-UD) field or the data stored in the TP-Protocol-Identifier (TP-PID) field. A user can control the wireless communication device to perform functions like increasing volume or switching from a silent mode to a sound mode, or even switching the mobile phone off, through transmitting a text message to the mobile phone.

Abstract: A technique is disclosed to optimize the call admission control algorithm that governs a shared-communications channel, in which the algorithm accounts for the levels of mobility, on an individual basis, of one or more terminals that need to use the channel. Instead of determining the variation in the distribution of supported data rates aggregated across multiple terminals—which can result in a greater variance in the call admission criterion—the technique of the illustrative embodiment tracks the variation in the distribution, for each terminal, of the data rates for that terminal. In short, the technique of the illustrative embodiment accounts for the variance in data rates that is attributed to the mobility of individual, representative terminals and not to the variance that is attributed to the spatial distribution of multiple terminals.

Abstract: Embodiments of methods and apparatus for providing a handover control system associated with a wireless communication network are generally described herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Abstract: A system for providing advanced voice services (AVS) in wireless communications systems includes a Real-Time Exchange (RTX) that interfaces to a wireless communications network to provide the AVS therein, wherein the AVS comprise Closed User Groups and Limiting Mobility. The Closed User Groups allow a group of users to make and receive calls only to other members of a group, and calls outside of the group are disallowed. The Limiting Mobility uses location information to restrict a mobile unit to service within one or more specified systems, cells or location areas.

Abstract: A method for managing incoming calls for a dual mode phone, comprising steps of: receiving an incoming call from a terminal; processing the incoming call and generating a prompt message to notify a user of the dual mode phone of the incoming call; determining whether the user accepts the incoming call; determining whether the dual mode phone is idle, if the user accepts the incoming call; determining whether a type of the incoming call matches with a current call mode of the dual mode phone if the dual mode phone is idle; switching from the current call mode to another call mode matching with the call mode of the incoming call if the type of the incoming call does not match with the current call mode of the dual mode phone; and establishing communication between the terminal and the dual mode phone.

Abstract: An urgent message apparatus mounted in a vehicle, for transmitting, in an emergency, an urgent message with a backup battery with the use of a low-earth orbit orbiting satellite, detects a current position of the vehicle; a obtaining part obtaining a communication not-possible time zone of the low-earth orbit orbiting satellite, for the current position of the vehicle detected by the position detecting part; calculates a power amount to be consumed when the backup battery is maintained in a transmission standby state during the communication not-possible time zone obtained by the obtaining part; measures remaining power of the backup battery; compares a sum of a power amount required for transmitting the urgent message and the power amount calculated by the calculating part, with the remaining power measured by the measuring part; and determines that charging or replacement of the backup battery is required when the sum is larger.

Abstract: The present invention is a method of managing missed calls providing a calling party, who initiates a call that is not pick-up by a called party (i.e., intended recipient), the autonomy to retain or delete telephone number of calling party in phone registered on the called party phone as caller identification (ID) through a mobile service provider (MSP) of a telecommunications network. The method may be implemented as part of a telecommunication system or as part of a computer program. Also, provided is a method and system for calling party to create annotation in a mobile service provider system parenthetical information for called party to retrieve or to alert called party.

Abstract: A method for relaying information received via a first channel to a second channel, in which the first channel has a first subcarrier at the first frequency and having assigned a block of information including a plurality of information units and in which the second channel has a first subcarrier at the first frequency and a second subcarrier at a second frequency, a transmission property for the second channel at the first frequency being worse than a transmission property for the second channel at the second frequency, comprises the step of assigning the block of information from the first subcarrier of the first channel to the second subcarrier of the second channel.

Abstract: When a holder of a cellular telephone operates a specific-key, the cellular telephone composes an e-mail containing a location-name, location-information, positioning-accuracy and positioning-time and sends the e-mail to a mail-address registered in a location-notification-address-table. In addition, when the cellular telephone receives an e-mail from the address registered in the location-notification-address-table, the cellular telephone composes an e-mail containing a location-name, location-information, positioning-accuracy and positioning-time, and sends the composed mail to a sender of the received e-mail.
