Patent number: 7203492Abstract: In a communications network, a home domain of the network formulates a multicast packet destined to a first multicast address locally unique in the home domain, encapsulates the packet in a packet destined to a second multicast address other than an individual care-of address, and transmits the packet. A mobile node visiting a foreign domain receives a packet containing the second multicast address. In a foreign-to-home multicast transmission, the visiting mobile node formulates a multicast packet destined to the first multicast address, encapsulates the packet in a packet destined to the second multicast address and transmits the packet. In the home domain, a packet containing the second multicast address is received and decapsulated to extract a packet destined to the first multicast address. The second multicast address is either a globally unique multicast address or a foreign local multicast address which is locally unique in the foreign domain.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2002Date of Patent: April 10, 2007Assignee: NEC CorporationInventor: Morihisa Momona

Patent number: 6704932Abstract: In a multi-access communication system where a center station dynamically allocates the band of an uplink to subscriber stations, the band of an uplink is flexibly and efficiently allocated when the up-service quality is insured. When requesting a service quality assurance, the subscriber station 30 transmits the service quality request information 210 to the center station 10. The center station 10 transmits the identifier allocation information 310 to the subscriber station 30 to allocate an identifier. When the service priority is high, the center station 10 periodically transmits the reservation transmission permission information 410 and 411 to the subscriber station 3 at the reservation permission transmission intervals 910, thus checking for the presence or absence of reservation information. Waste consumption of the up-band can be suppressed by periodically transmitting the reservation transmission permission information even if subscriber stations issue up-data at irregular intervals.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 1999Date of Patent: March 9, 2004Assignee: NEC CorporationInventors: Yasuhiko Matsunaga, Morihisa Momona

Publication number: 20030179731Abstract: A mobile node receives cell-site transmitted signals and determines their channel quality while establishing a unicast packet session, and transmits a report to the current cell-site if there is at least one neighbor cell-site detected whose channel quality is higher than that of the current cell-site for informing the identifier and channel quality of the detected cell-site, and requesting the resource necessary to support the session. In one embodiment, the current cell-site selects candidate cell-sites based on the report and informs the mobile node of the selected cell-sites. The mobile node selects a new cell-site from the candidate cell-sites and informs the current cell-site of the new cell-site. The requested resource is then reserved in the new cell-site and an IP address and at least one channel identifier are assigned. The mobile node uses the channel identifier to establish a wireless link of the reserved resource to the new cell-site and the IP address to reestablish the session.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 18, 2003Publication date: September 25, 2003Applicant: NEC CORPORATIONInventors: Yusuke Noguchi, Morihisa Momona
