  • Patent number: 8305979
    Abstract: A method, system and software to dynamically allocate bandwidth on an application flow basis in a non-Internet-Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (non-IMS) environment is described. The method includes: receiving a request to create an application flow for an Internet Protocol (IP) filter with desired Quality of Service (QoS) properties; searching for an access bearer that is comparable to the desired QoS properties; when a comparable access bearer is not found, creating the access bearer adapted to support the IP filter and the desired QoS properties; and associating the application flow with the access bearer.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7623866
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for automatic generation of neighbor lists in a wireless network. A first message is received from an overlapped base station. The overlapped base station has a first coverage area, and the first message comprises a location of the overlapped base station. Responsive to receiving the first message, a set of overlapping base stations is identified based at least in part on the location of the overlapped base station. Each overlapping base station has (i) a coverage area that overlaps the first coverage area and (ii) a neighbor list that includes a neighbor set of one or more neighboring base stations of that overlapping base station. A first neighbor list is generated and sent to the overlapped base station. The first neighbor list comprises of the union of the set of overlapping base stations and the neighbor set of each overlapping base station.

  • Patent number: 5113499
    Abstract: A security access management system for a packet switched data communications network has access management apparatus operatively associated with the packet switches at each entry point of the network. The access management apparatus includes an administrative host processor for examining user terminal authorization information in packets received at the associated packet switch for transmission through the network to destination addresses for the packets. A database associated with the administrative host stores information including levels of authorization of the user terminals for the respective entry point of the network for access to specified destinations, as pre-assigned by the network customer.
