  • Patent number: 8625620
    Abstract: A communication system providing a multimedia service which enables requesting a communication network to cancel a registration for a calling terminal as a bad terminal in the communication network. Typically, the calling terminal is connected to a calling-side communication network; and if the calling terminal is registered as a bad terminal in a called-side communication network, the calling-side communication network requests the called-side communication network to cancel the registration. The calling terminal may be informed that reception of a communication in the communication system has been restricted.

  • Publication number: 20130324128
    Abstract: SGSNs in the same pool-arca share their resource information by using O&M messages or GTP-C messages. At least one of the SGSNs (Sleeping SGSN) decides to sleep (shut down or run in a low power state), based on the resource information. Then the Sleeping SGSN sends a power down notification to the connected RNC/BSC and SGSNs, thereby preventing the RNC/BSC from selecting the Sleeping SGSN for new connection and handovers, and transferring the load on the Sleeping SGSN to other SGSNs.
