Abstract: Methods provide mechanisms for efficiently delivering files over a broadcast system to mobile devices. Files for broadcast may be logically identified as belonging to a directory in a file system. A Broadcast Schedule Message may inform receiver devices of files that will be broadcast at a specified time, as well as describe the files. File may be transmitted in file delivery pipes, which may be of different bandwidth and data rates. Receiver devices configured according to the embodiments may make use of the broadcast schedule message to select files to be received based on the service or application with which the file is associated, and whether the file is new or an update to a previously received file. Receiver devices activate receiver circuitry to capture the files within their advertised broadcast window, and pass the files to be broadcast to applications or services requesting the files.

Abstract: A method for determining a Quality of Service (QoS) policy can be based on requested bandwidth. The method may initially receive a connection request which includes a requested bandwidth that corresponds to an application. The method may then determine a policy for an application data flow associated with the application based on the connection request. A bandwidth designation, which is based on the requested bandwidth, may be assigned to the application data flow based on the determined policy. Finally, the policy and the bandwidth designation may be provided so that a bearer can be assigned.

Abstract: A method for providing an update package to a node in a mesh network comprising a set of nodes and a gateway node arranged to provide access to an update server via a second network. The gateway node collects package information from each set node, including a first node. Each package identifies a respective node and its package version.

The gateway node broadcasts the updated package into the mesh network as a sequence of mesh messages. Each of a first plurality of nodes of the set may forward the mesh messages to other nodes. The first node stores the mesh messages so as the sequence of mesh messages is received, assemble the updated package.

The method comprises the steps of: setting subframes for transmitting periodic channel state information (CSI); and transmitting the periodic CSI from the subframes, wherein a first resource or a second resource is used depending on a combination of acknowledgement/negative-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) which can be transmitted from the subframes.

Abstract: In a communication system, a translation server individually associates session control servers with transfer control servers. One of the session control servers receives a registration for a User Equipment (UE) over a first network. The translation server associates the UE with the session control server in the data structure. The session control server exchanges first control signaling with the UE to establish a media session over the first network. The translation server receives a session transfer request for the UE from a second network. The translation server processes the data structure to identify the transfer control server that is associated with the session control server that is associated with the UE. The translation server transfers the session transfer request to the transfer control server. The transfer control server exchanges second control signaling with the second network to transfer the media session from the first network to the second network.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for implementing a hierarchical high radix switch with a time-sliced crossbar. The hierarchical high radix switch includes a plurality of inputs and a plurality of outputs. Each input belongs to one input group; each input group sends consolidated requests to each output, by ORing the requests from the local input ports in that input group. Each output port belongs to one output group; each output port grants one of the requesting input groups using a rotating priority defined by a next-to-serve pointer. Each output group consolidates the output port grants and allows one grant to pass back to an input group. Each input port in an input group evaluates all incoming grants in an oldest packet first manner to form an accept. Each input group consolidates the input port accepts and selects one accept to send to the output port.

No new connection is required, and the data may be transmitted to its intended location as part of the existing connection, bypassing firewalls and other obstacles commonly affecting ping commands. The change to the IP layer may include a modified TTL value. Address location and response time may be determined for each node in a network path.

Abstract: Disclosed are a sending and acquiring method, system and apparatus for a radio resource control (RRC) reestablishment preparation message, relating to the technical field of communication and used for improving cell reestablishment success rate for terminals. In the present invention, when a relay node (RN) prepares a RRC reestablishment preparation message, besides preparing the RRC reestablishment preparation message for a target cell, the RN also prepares a RRC reestablishment preparation message for a donor evolved Node B (DeNB) belonging to the RN and/or cells of other RNs managed by the DeNB, and sends the prepared RRC reestablishment preparation message to the DeNB over a handover request message. After receiving the handover request message, the DeNB needs to parse the handover preparation information in the handover request message, and store the obtained RRC reestablishment preparation message of the cell managed by the DeNB.
