Abstract: Techniques, apparatuses, and systems include mechanisms for interworking circuit service fallback. In one implementation, a system for wireless communications can include one or more first base stations forming a first radio access network to provide wireless communications based on a first wireless technology; one or more second base stations forming a second radio access network to provide wireless communications based on a second wireless technology which is different from the first wireless technology, and an interworking service (IWS) module that is configured to provide the interworking between the first and second radio access networks for communications to a wireless device served by the system via either the first wireless technology or the second wireless technology, and uses a signal adaptation protocol to encapsulate messages in communicating with a wireless device served by the system. Other implementations are also provided in this document.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for grouping channels, such as pilots, are described. In one aspect, a method includes receiving transmissions of two or more pilot signals at an access terminal of a wireless communications network that includes an access node, based on characteristics of the transmissions of the two or more pilot signals from the access node to the access terminal, determining whether the two or more pilot signals are suitable for grouping and indicating of the suitability of the two or more pilot signals for grouping by sending a pilot information report for the pilot group to the access node.

Abstract: A method for providing network services includes receiving a mobile station identifier (MSID) from a mobile node at a packet data serving node. The packet data serving node is operable to communicate with the mobile node. The method includes receiving a registration request (RRQ) from the mobile node and appending the MSID to the RRQ. The method includes forwarding the RRQ to a home agent. The home agent is operable to communicate with the packet data serving node. The method also includes receiving an Internet Protocol (IP) address from the home agent. The IP address corresponds to the MSID. The MSID may be included in a normal vendor specific extension (NVSE) constructed by the packet data serving node. Appending the MSID to the RRQ may comprise appending the NVSE to the RRQ.

Interworking different wireless technologies can include operating a wireless communication system that includes a first wireless network based on a first wireless technology and a second wireless network based on a second wireless technology. Interworking different wireless technologies can include processing a network based change to an Aggregated Maximum Bit Rate (AMBR) parameter that corresponds to an Access Point Name (APN) and communicating the network based change to a wireless device.

The multiple femto-cell base stations can provide wireless service in different nonadjacent portions of the geographical coverage area.

Abstract: Techniques, apparatuses, and systems for using identification sequences in a wireless communication system can include receiving information indicative of a pilot code detected by a wireless device, the pilot code being shared by multiple Femto Access Points (FAPs) that each provide wireless service in at least a portion of the coverage area; receiving information indicative of an identification sequence detected by the wireless device that is associated with the pilot code, using the information indicative of the identification sequence to identify one of the FAPs that share the pilot code; and performing a hand-off of the call to the identified FAP to continue to provide wireless service for the call via the identified FAP.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method, a logic, and systems for selecting a communications protocol are disclosed. An initial request having a static Internet Protocol address is received from a mobile node, and a dynamic address is assigned to the mobile node. A data packet is received from the mobile node, and whether the data packet uses the dynamic address or has a mobile Internet Protocol request is determined. If the data packet has the mobile Internet Protocol request, the data packet is processed using a mobile Internet Protocol process. Alternatively, if the data packet uses the dynamic address, the data packet is processed using a simple Internet Protocol process.
