  • Patent number: 9042343
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and system for resource allocation in redirection of data traffic are provided. The method includes receiving a message including a subscription identification, position information associated with the subscription and an action proposal associated with the subscription (200a), selecting at least one local area network based at least in part on the position information (222), mapping the at least one local area network to a local area network server (230), ensuring a valid unique task identification for the subscription in the local area network server, and sending an off-loading indication message including the action proposal, the valid task identification and an identifier of the local area network server to the subscription (200d).

  • Publication number: 20150111605
    Abstract: A location-based triggering system and method allow location-based triggers to be created and associated with POI, landmark, and/or location-based information categories comprised of a plurality of POIs, landmarks, and/or location-based information, POI, landmark, and/or location-based information sub-categories, as well as POI, landmark, and location-based information searches. A trigger is created, where the trigger comprises trigger criteria. At least one POI, landmark, and/or location-based information database containing a plurality of POIs, landmarks, and/or location-based information data is monitored for a match between the trigger criteria and at least one POI, landmark, and/or location-based information category. If a match exists, the trigger is activated, thereby executing a related action or event. Furthermore, additional search criteria can be combined with the trigger criteria to enhance the LBT process.

  • Patent number: 8914867
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for redirecting data traffic are provided. The method includes receiving a service request from a first device, allocating resources for the service, associating the resources with a first unique identifier, confirming the service request with the first device, receiving a connection request from a second device including the first unique identifier and an authentication certificate, passing the authentication certificate to the first device, and receiving an authentication confirmation from the first device. The method further includes, in response to receiving the authentication confirmation, accepting the connection request from the second device, providing an indication regarding at least one local area network to the second device, and providing required credentials associated with the at least one local area network to the second device.

  • Publication number: 20130044741
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for redirecting data traffic, the method includes exchanging user data over a wireless connection with a destination identified by an Internet Protocol address using a wide area bearer, receiving, over the wide area bearer, an off-loading indication message including address information of at least one local access server, exchanging signalling messages including information regarding one or more available local access networks with the at least one local access server specified in the off-loading indication message, selecting a local access network based at least part on information exchanged with the at least one local access server and on information regarding wireless signal coverage activating a supplementary wireless local area bearer based at least part on information regarding one or more available local access networks received from the at least one local access server, and routing new connection opening requests to the supplementary wireless local area bearer.
