Abstract: A TCP context is transferred to a Gi Optimizer to provide cooperative mobility management in a mobile data network with a breakout system. The breakout system includes an Iub Optimizer at the MIOP@NodeB, and the Gi Optimizer at the MIOP@Core. When a MIOP@NodeB detects a mobility event for a broken out user equipment (UE), the Iub optimizer in the MIOP@NodeB coordinates with the Gi optimizer to transfer the TCP/UDP connection established between the UE and the IuB Optimizer to the Gi Optimizer. After the transfer, the UE is served by the Gi Optimizer. The transfer of the TCP/UDP connection to the Gi optimizer may require tunnel stitching at the MIOP@RNC depending on the PDP context state and the RRC state of the UE.

Abstract: A base station supports a contention-based channel and a schedule-based channel. If too many mobile terminals simultaneously transmit on the contention-based channel, the base station schedules retransmissions to those terminals on the schedule-based channel. Supporting this, a terminal transmits a user transmission on the contention-based channel that includes both a data transmission and a reference signal.

Correspondingly, the base station receives the user transmission and can determine the selected CS even if it is unable to demodulate the data transmission. The base station then determines a retransmission identifier (RTI) mapped to that CS, according to a mapping between CSs and RTIs, and sends scheduling information for any needed retransmission to the terminal by addressing that information to the RTI.

A second type of communication device having reduced receive bandwidth capabilities compared to those of the first type of communication device is thereby made capable of being served by the node.

Abstract: A method and a multimode terminal for minimizing a mute interval caused when call interruption occurs due to a handover between communication networks which provide communication services using different mobile communication technologies. In the method, communication network modems of the terminal supporting a multimode are interconnected through a one-to-one communication path, so that a voice path through the current communication network is maintained until the handover is completed. If a Handover Completion Message is received, switching to a voice path through a handover-target communication network modem can be performed through the communication path. Further, the modems are interconnected through the communication path, so that a modem switching procedure is not necessary and a handover processing procedure is simplified. Accordingly, handover processing time can also be reduced.

Abstract: Techniques for transferring new capability information in an efficient and backward compatible manner are described. A user equipment (UE) may send a new compatibility indicator to a wireless network to indicate that the UE has new capability information to send. This new capability indicator may be implemented with a spare bit in an information element included in an initial message sent to the network.

Alternatively, the network may convey that it supports transfer of new capability information, e.g., via a broadcast message or a unicast message. The UE may then send new capability information at any time to the network, without having to send the new capability indicator.

Abstract: Providing for user equipment mobility in a multi-carrier wireless network deployment is described herein. By way of example, data pertinent to mobile cell selection can be shared among base stations operating on different carrier frequencies either over-the-air or via a wired backhaul, and distributed by a base station to mobile terminals served by the base station. In one aspect, the data can be distributed over a wireless channel reserved for inter-carrier association data, whereas in other aspects, the data can be unicast to particular mobile terminals served by the base station. This can reduce or avoid a need for individual mobile terminals to tune away to a non-serving carrier for inter-carrier association or handover determinations. Accordingly, gaps in signal analysis on a serving carrier can be reduced or avoided, improving overall quality of wireless communication in a multi-carrier environment.
