Abstract: The disclosure provides a method and a system for processing an authenticator relocation request. When detecting that initial authentication, re-authentication or authenticator relocation is being performed for a terminal, a network side refuses a new authenticator relocation request from the terminal. When detecting that no initial authentication, re-authentication or authenticator relocation is being performed for the terminal, the network side accepts the new authenticator relocation request from the terminal. Further, when detecting that the initial authentication, the re-authentication or the authenticator relocation is being performed for the terminal, the network side refuses a new re-authentication request from the terminal. According to the technical solution of the disclosure, the complexity of network element processing is reduced and potential safety hazard is avoided.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for scheduling wireless resources of a multi-base station MBS and a method for sending occupation information. The scheduling method comprises: dividing wireless resources of downlink sub-frames of all base stations in an MBS Zone into two parts, local service schedulers on the base stations scheduling one part for local services, and a multi-base station MBS resource scheduler in the MBS Zone scheduling the other part for the multi-base station MBS. The sending method comprises: a sender informing a receiver of multi-base station MBS wireless resource occupation situation through a message carrying multi-base station MBS wireless resource occupation information; the occupation information including configuration information and a scheduling result. When supporting the macro diversity multi-base station MBS, the present invention not only can avoid the conflict of unicast and MBS scheduling, but also can fully utilize the limited wireless resources of the system.

Abstract: A base station determines if the mobile station seeking re-entry into the network is a member of a closed-subscriber group associated with the base station. If the mobile station is not a member of the closed subscriber group associated with the base station, the base station redirects the mobile station to another base station.

Abstract: A method for accelerating network accessing of a terminal in a wireless communication system, comprises: a wireless terminal receiving system parameter information, and after obtaining system information of a base station identifier (BS ID) and a network access provider identifier (NAP ID), immediately judging validity of the NAP ID, or validity of both the NAP ID and the BS ID; if a result of the judgment is “valid”, the terminal proceeding to a subsequent procedure of the network discovery and selection according to information stored in the terminal, otherwise, carrying out a new procedure of network discovery and selection. The method avoids continuing to perform processes such as message receiving and decoding in the case that a NAP ID or a BS ID is invalid according to a procedure in the current protocol, thereby increasing the speed of network accessing of a terminal.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to wireless communication and, more specifically, to network support for configuration management in a Worldwide Interoperability Microwave Access Femto Network. In one exemplary embodiment, offline and/or updated configuration information is obtained by a WiMAX Femto Access Point from a management server whether the WiMAX Femto Access Point is active or inactive and before or after initial network entry. Configuration information synchronization may also be performed before or after initial network entry.

Abstract: An optimization method of multiple service flows operation for a WiMAX system includes: adding a resource combination indication to a hand-off request message, a path pre-registration request message and a path registration request message; hand-off request processing: when multiple service flows are handed off by a mobile station from a current serving network to a target network, determining whether the mobile station is allowed to hand off to a target network according to the resource combination indication in the hand-off request message and whether the handoff of the multiple service flows is accepted by the target network; path pre-establishment processing and path establishment processing: when the mobile station is allowed to hand off multiple service flows from the current serving network to the target network, determining whether data paths between the target network and the network where a data management unit is located can be pre-established/established according to the resource combination indic

Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for implementing initial network entry procedures by a Femto access point which is required to be authenticated by the WiMAX network prior to becoming active and operational. The method includes implementing a DNS query to discover an associated server and gateway in an associated Femto network service provider domain and obtaining an IP address for the server and an IP address for the gateway. The method also includes authenticating the Femto access point with the associated Femto network service provider and establishing a secure IP tunnel between the Femto access point and the gateway. The method further includes interacting with a default self organizing network server to perform location authorization, wherein the self organizing network server is configured to auto configured the Femto access point with preliminary radio parameters. The method also includes executing registration with a Femto gateway.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for processing handoff confirm messages. The method includes the following steps: step S102, a serving base station receives a handoff indication message which is from a terminal, and determines the content of the field of the HO confirm type in the handoff confirm message which is to be transferred; and step S104, the serving base station determines whether the service flow information or terminal identifiers are included or not when the handoff confirm messages are transferred to multiple target base stations or target ASNs according to the field of the HO confirm type. The method for processing handoff confirm messages makes handoff among different branches according to different contents in the same controlling procedure, the redundant messages are reduced, and the transmission efficiency of link controlling information and the processing efficiency of the receiving end are improved effectively.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for sending a paging message applied to a Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access system, wherein an anchoring paging controller sends the paging message only to base stations meeting mobility restrictive conditions, or to base stations which belong to a paging group to which a terminal to be paged belongs and meet the mobility restrictive conditions; and the paging message is a paging starting message or a paging stopping message. Using the method in accordance with the present invention, the paging message can be prevented from sending to the base stations which do not meet the restrictive conditions of the terminal, thus reducing the consumption of the system resources.
