Abstract: A wireless access system comprises a base station and a control system. The base station wirelessly broadcasts a pilot signal including a network access provider identifier that identifies a wireless video service. The base station wirelessly receives a wireless video uplink request from a wireless video device in response to the pilot signal. The control system processes reservation data for the base station to determine if the wireless video device has a current wireless video uplink reservation and directs the base station to provide a wireless video uplink to the wireless video device if the wireless video device has the current wireless video uplink reservation. The base station wirelessly receives video data from the wireless video device over the wireless video uplink as directed by the control system.

Abstract: A communication system for operating a wireless communication network to manage machine-to-machine communications comprises a communication transceiver system and a communication processing system. The communication transceiver system is configured to wirelessly receive a data packet having a packet header, wherein the packet header includes a machine-to-machine communication indicator representing that a machine-to-machine communication in the packet payload is originated and consumed by machines and not human operators. The communication processing system is configured to determine at least one wireless network parameter indicating a state of the wireless communication network, and process the machine-to-machine communication indicator and the wireless network parameter to determine whether to transfer or drop the data packet.

Abstract: An LTE communication system has an eNodeB that exchanges wireless communications with a plurality of wireless communication devices within its a wireless coverage area. The eNodeB, wirelessly broadcasts information associated with a location included within the wireless coverage area for receipt by the wireless communication devices. The LTE communication system also has a control system that receives a request for at least some of the broadcast information associated with the location from a communication device that is not in the wireless coverage area. The control system transfers the requested broadcast information for delivery to the communication device that is not in the wireless coverage area.

Abstract: A communication control system configures a wireless access node to broadcast a message stream comprising information associated with a location covered by a sector serving wireless communication devices, receives an interest indicator indicating a level of interest in the message stream by the wireless communication devices, receives a request to receive the message stream transmitted from an out-of-sector wireless communication device served by a different sector from the sector serving the wireless communication devices, wherein the request includes interest filter criteria, applies the interest filter criteria to activate a subscription to the message stream for the out-of-sector wireless communication device when the interest filter criteria is met based on the interest indicator, and in response to activating the subscription to the message stream, transfers a message comprising the information associated with the location covered by the sector serving the wireless communication devices for delivery to

Abstract: A wireless video device comprises: a user interface, optical receiver, processing system, and wireless transceiver. The optical receiver processes optical signals to generate corresponding video data. The user interface receives a user request to establish a wireless video uplink. The processing system processes the user request to generate a system request for the wireless video uplink. The wireless transceiver wirelessly transfers the system request to a wireless access system and wirelessly receives at least one system condition for a grant of the request. The processing system processes the condition to direct the user interface to display the condition. The user interface displays the condition and receives a user acceptance of the condition. The processing system processes the user acceptance to direct the wireless transceiver to wirelessly transfer the video data to the wireless access system. The wireless transceiver wirelessly transfers the video data to the wireless access system.

Abstract: A wireless video device operates in a video uplink system having a plurality of wireless access systems. The wireless video device displays a geographic map and receives user inputs indicating a geographic location and a time period. The wireless video device transfers a video uplink request that indicates a wireless video device identifier, the geographic location, and the time period. The wireless video device may receive a video uplink grant. The wireless video device optically receives video and generates corresponding video data. The wireless video device wirelessly transfers the video data to one of the wireless access systems serving the geographic location during the time period.

Abstract: A wireless video uplink system comprises wireless access systems and a reservation system. The reservation system receives a video uplink request that indicates a user, a geographic location, and a time period. The reservation system processes the video uplink request to select one of the wireless access systems that serves the geographic location. The reservation system determines if the selected wireless access system has available video uplink capacity during the time period, and if so, the system directs the selected wireless access system to provide the wireless video uplink to a wireless video device associated with the user during the time period. The selected wireless access system wirelessly receives video data over the video uplink from the wireless video device during the time period. The selected wireless access system also inhibits another video uplink attempt from another wireless video device during the time period.
