Patent number: 11026057Abstract: Methods and systems for sending multicast messages are disclosed. A multicast message is received to be transmitted to a plurality of access terminals at a radio access network (RAN), the received multicast message having a first format. The first format may correspond to a conventional multicast message format. The RAN determines whether the received multicast message requires special handling. If the RAN determines the received multicast message requires special handling, the radio access network converts the received multicast message from the first format into a second format. The RAN transmits the converted multicast message with the second format (e.g., a data over signaling (DOS) message) on a control channel to at least one of the plurality of access terminals. The access terminals receiving the converted multicast message interpret the message as a multicast message.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2016Date of Patent: June 1, 2021Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Bongyong Song, Harleen Gill, Arulmozhi Ananthanarayanan

Patent number: 9520982Abstract: In an embodiment, an originating device sends a request, to a server, to initiate a full-duplex session with a target device. Responsive to the full-duplex request, a half-duplex session is set-up from the originating device to the target device before the full-duplex session is set-up. The target device indicates its acceptance of the half-duplex session, receives half-duplex media from the originating device and selectively indicates its acceptance of the full-duplex session. In another embodiment, during a session currently supported either by half-duplex or full-duplex, the server arbitrating the session receives a request from one of the session participants to transition the session to another duplex-type. The server then selectively transitions the duplex-type of the session.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2013Date of Patent: December 13, 2016Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Ashu Razdan, Eric Rosen, David Ross, Beth Brewer, Arulmozhi Ananthanarayanan, Mohammed Ataur Rahman Shuman

Patent number: 9313620Abstract: In an example, an access terminal sends a group member report to an access network, the group member report indicating a location of the access terminal and at least one multicast group, the group member report being sent before a multicast session associated with the multicast group is initiated, determines a location update rule, the location update rule being a manner in which to report location updates of the access terminal to the access network and reports location updates of the access terminal to the access network based on the determined location update rule.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2013Date of Patent: April 12, 2016Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Bongyong Song, Arulmozhi Ananthanarayanan, Harleen Gill

Publication number: 20150304990Abstract: In an embodiment, an access network (AN) receives a message configured to prompt a conditional allocation of Quality of Service (QoS) resources to an access terminal (AT). The message can be received from the AT or from an application server (AS) that arbitrates a communication session for the AT. In another embodiment, if the AT determines that a QoS resource request has not yet been granted, the AT waits until the traffic channel (TCH) has been obtained for a communication session before resending the QoS resource request. In another embodiment, if the AT determines to initiate or join a second communication session before a confirmation that QoS resources for a first communication session are relinquished, the AT waits until the confirmation is received before a request for QoS resources for the second communication session is sent.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2015Publication date: October 22, 2015Inventors: Vivek Manpuria, Ashu Razdan, Arulmozhi Ananthanarayanan, Eric Carl Rosen

Publication number: 20150009865Abstract: A server conducts a communication session between an originating device and at least one target device via a first duplex characteristic (e.g., half-duplex, full-duplex, media share, etc.). The server monitors a set of session parameters while the communication session has the first duplex characteristic. Based on the monitoring, the server detects one or more changes to at least one session parameter in the set of session parameters. The server automatically determines to transition the communication session from the first duplex characteristic to a second duplex characteristic (e.g., half-duplex, full-duplex, media share, etc.) in response to the detection. The server transitions the communication session from the first duplex characteristic to the second duplex characteristic in response to the determination.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2014Publication date: January 8, 2015Inventors: Sandeep SHARMA, Nivedita SARKAR, Vijay Anandrao SURYAVANSHI, Mohammed Ataur Rahman SHUMAN, Ashu RAZDAN, Eric ROSEN, David Jonathan ROSS, Arulmozhi ANANTHANARAYANAN

Publication number: 20140369327Abstract: An embodiment is directed to an access network that configures set of paging indicator (PI) bits within a quick paging channel (QPCH) cycle to page a group of access terminals. An access terminal within the group receives the QPCH cycle, and evaluates the PI bits to determine whether a unicast page and/or group page is present. Another embodiment is directed to selecting less than all timeslots in one or more control channel cycles of a downlink control channel, and configuring a page message to convey the selected timeslots to an access terminal. The access terminal receives the configured page message and decodes information only within the selected timeslots. Another embodiment is directed to generating a transport-layer message for transmission to at least one access terminal, and configuring the transport-layer message by modifying an application-layer portion of the transport-layer message. An access terminal receives the message and extracts the application-layer portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 3, 2014Publication date: December 18, 2014Inventors: Arvind Santhanam, Bongyong Song, Harleen Gill, Arulmozhi Ananthanarayanan

Patent number: 8134943Abstract: In an embodiment, an application server determines a priority associated with a given multicast message for transmission to at least one access terminal, configures the given multicast message to indicate the priority of the given multicast message and forwards the configured multicast message to an access network for transmission to the at least one access terminal a number of times based at least in part on the indicated priority. Alternatively, the application server can indicate, in the configured multicast message, the number of times to transmit the given multicast message. The priority, or number of times to transmit the given multicast message, can be conveyed to the access network by a flag inserted into the configured multicast message by the application server. The access network determines the number of times to transmit the given multicast message to the at least one access terminal based on the flag.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2009Date of Patent: March 13, 2012Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Bongyong Song, Arulmozhi Ananthanarayanan, Arvind V.

Publication number: 20070202910Abstract: A wireless push-to-talk (PIT) communication system 100 assigns a special dispatch priority to for emergency communications to and from police, fire dept. or communications to other emergency personnel. A communication which has been assigned dispatch priority takes precedence over all other non-dispatch priority communications for initially completing the call and maintaining the communications links. An indication of dispatch priority in a 1xCV-DO system may be achieved by setting a bit in the RequestReason field 604 of the ConnectionRequest message 602.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2006Publication date: August 30, 2007Inventors: Beth Brewer, Arulmozhi Ananthanarayanan
