Patent number: 8379512Abstract: Ambiguity (e.g., confusion) associated with access point identifiers may be resolved by querying candidate target access points and/or by using historical records indicative of one or more access points that the access point has previously accessed. For example, messages may be sent to access points that are assigned the same identifier to cause the access points to monitor for a signal from an access terminal that received the identifier from a target access point. The target access point may then be identified based on any responses that indicate that a signal was received from the access terminal. In some aspects the access points subject to being queried may be selected using a tiered priority. In addition, it may be determined based on prior handoffs of a given access terminal that when that access terminal reports a given identifier, the access terminal usually ends up being handed-off to a particular access point.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2009Date of Patent: February 19, 2013Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Aleksandar M. Gogic, Chandrasekhar T. Sundarraman, Sanjiv Nanda, Peerapol Tinnakornsrisuphap, Rajarshi Gupta

Publication number: 20120329456Abstract: Transmissions of beacons by a set of access points (e.g., femtocells) are synchronized to facilitate discovery of the access points by an access terminal moving through the coverage areas of the access points. In some embodiments, periodic beacon transmissions are synchronized across all of the femtocells of a set of femtocells such that each femtocell transmits a beacon signal according to a similar pattern and at the same time. In some embodiments, an opportunistic beacon control scheme involves commencing beacon transmissions by at least one femtocell of a set of femtocells upon determining that an access terminal has communicated with one or more of the femtocells.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2011Publication date: December 27, 2012Applicant: QUALCOMM INCORPORATEDInventors: Vansh Pal Singh Makh, Yeliz Tokgoz, Peerapol Tinnakornsrisuphap, Mehmet Yavuz

Publication number: 20110263242Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, and computer program products are described for supporting macrocell-to-femtocell hand-ins of active macro communications for mobile access terminals. An out-of-band (OOB) link is used to detect that an access terminal is in proximity of a femtocell (e.g., using an OOB radio integrated with the femtocell or in a common subnet with the femtocell). Having detected the access terminal in proximity to the femtocell, an OOB presence indication is communicated to a femto convergence system disposed in a core network in communication with the macro network to effectively pre-register the access terminal with the femto-convergence system. When the femto convergence system receives a handoff request from the macro network implicating the pre-registered access terminal, it is able to reliably determine the appropriate target femtocell to use for the hand-in according to the pre-registration, even where identification of the appropriate target femtocell would otherwise be unreliable.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 19, 2011Publication date: October 27, 2011Applicant: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Peerapol Tinnakornsrisuphap, Soumya Das, Ravindra Patwardhan
