Abstract: An exemplary method implements route optimization in an IP telecommunication network that supports wireless mobile stations (MSs). IP address information related to packet flow for MSs is identified and stored in records at a local mobility anchor point (LMAP). The records are compared to determine matching pairs, i.e. records that represent that a first MS is engaged in a communication session with a second MS. First and second points of attachment nodes are determined that support the first and second MS, respectively, based on IP address information contained in a matching pair of records associated with the first and second MS. A route optimization (RO) message is transmitted to the first and second point of attachment nodes, where the RO message includes an IP address of the other point of attachment node.

Abstract: A method in one example has: establishing communication between two mobile terminals in a base station routing architecture network; and optimizing routing between the two mobiles terminals without requiring all traffic to traverse an anchor point in the base station routing architecture network. An IP base station transceiver architecture utilizes network controlled mobility to provide a transparent connection between a mobile terminal and an anchor point in the network. This transparency hides the mobility associated with changing IP base station transceivers from the mobile terminal and reduces over-the-air signaling.

Abstract: A method and apparatus permit handling of unwanted calls from callers such as telemarketers, when caller identification is provided. In one embodiment, the called party adds the caller identification information for the telemarketer to a personal list after receiving the unwanted call. Subsequent calls from the telemarketer are intercepted. In a second embodiment, the called party identifies the telemarketer by detecting the caller identification information before answering the call. By providing a screen listing indication, the caller identification information is added to the called party's personal list before the call is completed, permitting the call to be intercepted and while future calls from the telemarketer to be intercepted.

Abstract: The Multi-Link Aircraft Cellular System makes use of multiple physically separated antennas mounted on the aircraft, as well as the use of additional optional signal isolation and optimization techniques to improve the call handling capacity of the Air-To-Ground cellular communications network. These additional techniques can include polarization domain and ground antenna pattern shaping (in azimuth, in elevation, or in both planes). Further, if code domain separation is added, dramatic increases in capacity are realized. Thus, the Air-To-Ground cellular communications network can increase its capacity on a per aircraft basis by sharing its traffic load among more than one cell or sector and by making use of multiple physically separated antennas mounted on the aircraft, as well as the use of additional optional signal isolation and optimization techniques.

Abstract: A location information system (102) includes a controller (200), a location entry device (202), a memory device (204) and wireless communication units (206-209). The controller (200) receives location information from the location entry device (202), such as a keyboard or a global positioning satellite receiver, for storage in the memory device (204). The location information represents locations of predetermined areas (210-213), such as floors, rooms, hallways, stairways and elevators, associated with each of the wireless communication units (206-209) in a facility (110). A wireless communication unit (209) sends the location information to a wireless communication device (104), such as a cellular telephone device, over a short-range wireless communication channel (124), such as a radio frequency communication channel.
