20130225187 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INTERFACING AMONG MOBILE TERMINAL, BASE STATION AND CORE NETWORK IN MOBILE TELECOMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM - A method, apparatus and a computer readable record media storing instructions for executing the same method for interfacing among a hybrid type synchronous or asynchronous terminal to a core network in a next generation mobile telecommunications system. The hybrid type synchronous or asynchronous radio network determines the operating type of the core network when the core network has a connection thereto, and sends the determined core network operating type information and information related to the core network to the hybrid type synchronous or asynchronous terminal, thereby allowing the synchronous or asynchronous terminal to smoothly perform a data interfacing operation with the core network. | 08-29-2013 |
20130225148 | TERMINAL WITH MODULE PROTECTION AND MODULE MANAGING METHOD - The present disclosure relates to a terminal with a module protecting feature and a module managing method. The terminal includes: a module execution management section that collects and manages information to execute modules; a module installation and deletion management section that collects and manages information relating to installation or deletion of the modules; and a history management section that detects an association relationship between the modules on the basis of the information, which is received by the module execution management section and the module installation and deletion management section, and determines an associated module which may be affected at the time of module execution by deletion of a specific module when the specific module is deleted on the basis of the detected association relationship. | 08-29-2013 |
20130225103 | MOBILE TERMINAL WITH SUPPORT - Provided is a mobile terminal including a body unit providing a display unit; and a power unit supplying electric power to operate the display unit, wherein the power unit is mounted on one side of the body unit in a form such that the power unit extends in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the side of the body unit, and allows for the center of gravity of the body unit to be eccentric toward the side of the body unit.
