Publication number: 20060128386Abstract: A branch candidate selecting method by a mobile station and a diversity handover control method on a network side in DHO performance are provided which consider a maximum cable branch number and maximum radio branch number of the mobile station, when the mobile station detects the plurality of addition branch candidates and deletion branch candidates. The mobile station inserts a plurality of addition branch candidates and deletion branch candidates, that is, all the DHO candidates into one handover trigger signal, and notifies the network. The addition branch candidates are put into addition information parameters in the handover trigger signal, and the deletion branch candidates are put into deletion information parameters. To simplify processing on the network side, the network side separates the addition branch candidates from the deletion branch candidates, and carries out sequential processing of them independently.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 2, 2006Publication date: June 15, 2006Inventors: Tomoyuki Ohtani, Motoshi Tamura, Takaaki Sato

Patent number: 6977903Abstract: Disclosed is a mobile communication system including a network constituted of at least one switching center and a plurality of base stations, and a mobile station which communicates with the base stations simultaneously. The system permits varying transmission delay between the switching center and the base stations according to the type of services available to the mobile station. The object of the present invention is to propose a communication which permits varying transmission delay according to the type of service currently employed, and to promptly recover a synchronization state even if an out-of-sync state happens. To attain the object, a memory means (mobile switching center processor 32) stores transmission delay characteristics corresponding to services which are available to the mobile station.Type: GrantFiled: December 25, 1997Date of Patent: December 20, 2005Assignee: NTT Mobile Communications Network, Inc.Inventors: Tomoyuki Ohtani, Motoshi Tamura, Takaaki Satoh, Hiroki Morikawa, Fumiaki Ishino

Patent number: 6950423Abstract: When packet sending and receiving apparatus 21 sets a connection, timing control apparatus 22 generates a timing information Tf as the packet is dispersed equivalently. Timing control apparatus 22 notices the timing information Tf to packet sending and receiving apparatus 21 and base station 3. Packet sending and receiving apparatus 21 carries out a packet generating processing in accordance with a frame offset value which is indicated by the timing information Tf. Therefore, the packets in which a packet transmission timing is averaged in a packet transmission period arrives to packet multiplex apparatus 23. Consequently, it is possible to decrease a waiting time of the packet multiplex transmission. Therefore, it is possible to use efficiency a transmission link L1, while being satisfied the required service quality.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 1998Date of Patent: September 27, 2005Assignee: NTT Mobile Communications Newtork, Inc.Inventors: Hiroshi Kawakami, Motoshi Tamura, Takaaki Sato

Publication number: 20050176411Abstract: There is provided a mobile terminal with an international dialing operation function, which enables unfamiliar and troublesome conversion into an international telephone number to be performed with a simpler operation and which performs conversion into an appropriate telephone number according to the location where the terminal has moved. The mobile terminal identifies its location with a location identification section and determines whether an originating call is a call to the originator's country or to a foreign country according to the identified location. If the call is to a foreign country, an international prefix according to the identified location is identified. Furthermore, a country code is set to correspond to the originator's country, or it is identified from the inputted counterpart's telephone number and the like. Conversion into an international telephone number is performed using the country code, and then a call is originated.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 12, 2003Publication date: August 11, 2005Applicant: NTT DoCoMo, Inc.Inventors: Masaaki Taya, Motoshi Tamura

Patent number: 6697370Abstract: Efficient use of an ATM transmission path becomes possible by multiplexing, into a bandwidth in the bandwidth-assured individual VP, a plurality of users whose traffic volumes are beyond a predetermined value. Installing a bandwidth-unassured common VP for low traffic users makes it possible to switch from the common VP to the individual VP or vice versa under the following conditions. (1) When the user traffic volume, monitored at fixed intervals during the communications through an individual VP, drops below a predetermined threshold value, the individual VP is switched to a common VP. (2) When the user traffic volume, monitored at fixed intervals during the communications through a common VP, exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the common VP is switched to an individual VP. (3) In addition to condition (2), when bandwidth shortage takes place in common VPs, the common VPs of heavy traffic users are switched to individual VPs.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 1999Date of Patent: February 24, 2004Assignee: NTT DoCoMo Inc.Inventors: Tokuro Doi, Masatomo Nakano, Motoshi Tamura, Teruki Niwa

Patent number: 6671289Abstract: A short cell multiplexing is provided for chiefly transmitting data shorter than the payload of a standard ATM cell (basically the data of less than 48 bytes, but the data more than 48 bytes can be allowed). A standard ATM cell assembler 1 converts various forms of input information into short cells, places the short cells in standard ATM cells efficiently considering their information length, and output them to a B/ISDN network 7. The standard ATM cell disassembler 2 disassembles the standard ATM cells, which are assembled by the standard ATM cell assembler 1 and is input through the B-ISDN network 7, into short cells, converts the short cells into those with the original input information forms, and outputs them to channels. The configuration makes it possible for the short cell ATM cell multiplexing to improve channel efficiency with small delay, and matching to the standard ATM system.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 1997Date of Patent: December 30, 2003Assignee: NTT Mobile Communications Network, Inc.Inventors: Motoshi Tamura, Takatoshi Okagawa, Hiroshi Nakamura, Akira Kaiyama, Masafumi Onuki, Akihisa Nakajima
