  • Patent number: 8442005
    Abstract: In a telecommunications network in which a mobile handset is capable of communicating in both an IP domain and a non-IP domain, the handoff of an existing communications session between the mobile handset and a fixed user is facilitated by a handoff controller implemented in a service control point. The handoff controller implements different handoff methods depending on the status of the fixed user and the transition of the mobile user. Additionally 802.21 Media Independent Handover Function in conjunction with SIP is used to facilitate handover between IP and Non-IP points in the system.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5521963
    Abstract: A mobile call processing methodology and concomitant system based on ISDN/CACH-EKTS technology which can broadcast incoming calls to base stations (e.g., 1050) and which uses the ISDN/CACH-EKTS bridging technology to handle base station handoff of an established call. Each mobile user (e.g., 1041, 1042) is assigned a unique EKTS directory number as well as a unique call appearance identifier, which allows for the handling of multiple call appearances of the unique DN on a single base station. For a given mobile communication application, the central office (e.g., 1014) treats the base station as an ISDN/CACH-EKTS terminal.
