  • Multi-service radio communication system
    Patent number: 7054634
    Abstract: In a multiservice wireless communication system according to the present invention, a location manager 47 of a multiservice terminal 140 detects its own position with a GPS receiver interface 49. The location manager sends the detected positional information to a management server 110 via a common-signaling wireless network base station 100 in which respective multiple service zones serviced by multiple wireless systems overlap in a common-signaling wireless zone and acquires information on available wireless systems as a response to that. A network selecting section 44 selects a wireless system that most matches selecting conditions from the acquired available wireless systems and performs communication via the interfaces 40 and 41 that operate the selected wireless system.

  • Method for flow control, node and communication network employing the flow control
    Patent number: 6192039
    Abstract: There is provided a method for a flow control to a mobile communication network in which an ATM virtual channel established between a first base station having a radio zone in which a mobile station exists and a terminating ATM node to which a remote station with which the mobile station communicates is connected. The first step of the method is to queue, in an ATM node, incoming cells to be sent to a second base station having a radio zone when the mobile station is handed over to the radio zone of the second base station. The second step of the method is to stop queuing and send the incoming cells queued in the ATM node to the second base station after the mobile station is handed over.
