Abstract: A lighting device (1) is disclosed comprising a transmissive housing (3) and a filament (10) within said transmissive housing. The filament comprises a transmissive substrate (20) carrying a plurality of solid state lighting elements (30) and a phosphor containing resin coating (40) enveloping said filament. The resin coating includes at least one region (42) leaking light produced by said solid state lighting elements that is unconverted by said phosphor and the transmissive housing carries a further phosphor layer (7) covering part of the transmissive housing for each of said regions of the resin coating, each of said further phosphor layers being arranged to receive said unconverted light leaking from at least one of said regions. Also disclosed is a method of manufacturing such a lighting device.

Abstract: Embodiments of this invention relate to methods and apparatus for establishing additional simultaneous packet data network (PDN) connections between a User Equipment (UE) and an evolved packet core network (EPC) over an untrusted WiFi network. The UE is attached to the EPC through a security gateway over a first PDN connection over which the UE is authenticated and has established an Internet Key Exchange Security Association (IKE SA) and a first Internet Protocol Security SA (IPSec SA). The UE then establishes an additional PDN connection using a new IKE request/response exchange or an enhanced IKE CREATE_CHILD_SA exchange that is cryptographically protected using algorithms and keys negotiated during the first PDN connection, hence improving delay and battery life of the UE as the UE no longer needs, for each additional PDN connection, to negotiate an individual IKE SA and to authenticate the UE.
