Abstract: A computer-based method for processing user data traffic in a RAN in which mobile user equipment can communicate with a RNC through a base station includes the following steps. A flow of data frames to/from mobile user equipment passing between the base station and the RNC are read, wherein one or more of the data frames contain control messages and one or more other of the data frames contain user data. The control messages contained in the data frames are analyzed for channel identification information that indicates whether the data frames that contain user data contain circuit-switched or packet-switched user data. The data frames that contain the circuit-switched user data and the data frames that contain the packet-switched user data are segregated at a transport network layer between the base station and the RNC based on the channel identification information.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for adaptive system monitoring. In one embodiment, the method comprises generating time-varying correlation graphs indicating correlations between a multitude of parameters of the system, and using the correlation graphs to identify monitoring logic for monitoring the system. In an embodiment, the correlation graphs are used to select a group of the parameters as monitoring parameters, and these monitoring parameters are dynamically changed. In one embodiment, the monitoring parameters form sets of monitoring parameters, and each set of monitoring parameters is used to monitor the system for an associated period of time. The lengths of these monitoring periods are changed based on the rate of change of the correlation graphs. In an embodiment, the rate at which the monitoring parameters are changed is itself changed based on the rate of change of the correlation graphs.

Abstract: A distributed coordination of a wireless network operating on different channels is provided by dispatching a device on each ‘home’ channel to regularly visit other ‘foreign’ channels to propagate and listen to broadcast information on these channels. The information in the broadcast packets transmitted on the home channel is relayed to the devices on the foreign channels by the dispatched device, as a ‘proxy device’ that operates on behalf of the other devices in the home channel. In a preferred embodiment, various aspects of this proxy process are optimized to reduce overhead and delays. Each channel is configured to distinguish home devices from foreign devices, to avoid contention between home and foreign devices. Acquired beacon slots on foreign channels are reserved to facilitate returning proxy devices. At the home channel, an anchor device alerts other devices of the proxy device's temporary absence and preserves the proxy device's beacon slot on the home channel.
