Abstract: Systems, methods, and software for hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) block error rate (BLER) control in wireless communications are provided herein. A wireless access system receives a media packet. The wireless access system also determines a first time difference between an allowable end-to-end delay for the media packet and a first consumed end-to-end delay for the media packet. The wireless access system also processes the first time difference to select a first HARQ BLER and transfers the media packet from the wireless access system using the first HARQ BLER.

Abstract: A method, system, and medium are provided for regulating the allocation of radio-frequency (RF) channels in a carrier-aggregation network. A base station that is part of the carrier-aggregation network receives a registration request from a mobile station subscribing to services offered by a first wireless-telecommunications network within the carrier-aggregation network. The base station communicates the registration request to the first network and receives a set of policy parameters from the first network. The base station receives a service request from the mobile station. Based on the policy parameters and the service request and without communicating with the first network, the base station determines a set of RF channels available to the mobile station. The base station sends a resource assignment to the mobile station specifying the set of available RF channels.

Abstract: Methods, system, and medium are provided for referencing the original source or destination information of data packets on a mobile telecommunications network, including information in inner headers of data packets. The present invention enables monitoring of data traffic, or directing and balancing data packets in a mobile network, based on inner-header information.

Abstract: Systems, products, and methods are disclosed for enabling an action to take place based on data-usage characteristics associated with a mobile device. This can include receiving a request from the mobile device to receive an IP address (which request is communicated through a base transceiver station), adding to the registration request an identifier that identifies the BTS, and communicating the modified registration request to an IP-address-allocation device that reserves the IP address for the mobile device.
