20080254833 | Private Access Point Containing a Sim Card - An access point, or base station, for a mobile communications network, such as a cellular communications network, can be installed by a user, for use within or close to their own home or office. The base station has a SIM card, and can establish secure communications with the core network of the mobile communications network over the user's existing broadband internet connection. The base station is also able to obtain the necessary ciphering keys, in order to allow the mobile device to communicate securely with the base station, and hence with the core network. | 10-16-2008 |
20080304439 | Automatic Base Station Configuration - A basestation in a cellular communications network is configured such that it has a different Location Area Identification from other local basestations in the cellular network. This has the effect that a Location Area Update procedure is performed when a mobile device wishes to camp onto that basestation. The basestation is able to configure itself automatically, to ensure that its Location Area Identification differs from other local basestations. | 12-11-2008 |
20080305835 | Cellular basestation - A method of managing registration requests from unauthorized user equipments in a cellular communications network includes monitoring such further registration requests and maintaining a count of the total number of registration requests from said user equipment. Based on the counted number of unsuccessful registration requests, different mechanisms can be used to reject the registration request. | 12-11-2008 |
20090017864 | Local area cellular basestation - A base station for a cellular wireless communications network has a first interface, enabling connection with a remote communications device using a cellular wireless communications protocol in the cellular wireless communications network. The base station also has a second interface, enabling connection over a wide area network, and a third interface, enabling connection over a local area network. Software enables communication over the wide area network between a remote communications device, connected to the first interface, and a core network of the cellular wireless communications network. Software can also enable the remote communications device to communicate with a device in the local area network, or with a server in the wide area network, without using the core network of the cellular wireless communications network. | 01-15-2009 |
20090190550 | Handover information sent over a public wide area network (e.g. internet) - A basestation ( | 07-30-2009 |
20100190495 | AUTOMATIC BASE STATION CONFIGURATION - A basestation in a cellular communications network is configured such that it has a different Location Area Identification from other local basestations in the cellular network. This has the effect that a Location Area Update procedure is performed when a mobile device wishes to camp onto that basestation. The basestation is able to configure itself automatically, to ensure that its Location Area Identification differs from other local basestations. | 07-29-2010 |
20100227645 | AUTOMATIC BASE STATION CONFIGURATION - A basestation in a cellular communications network is configured such that it has a different Location Area Identification from other local basestations in the cellular network. This has the effect that a Location Area Update procedure is performed when a mobile device wishes to camp onto that basestation. The basestation is able to configure itself automatically, to ensure that its Location Area Identification differs from other local basestations. | 09-09-2010 |
20100317405 | SELF-CONFIGURING CELLULAR BASESTATION - A basestation for a cellular wireless communications network is able to configure itself for operation in the network, by selecting appropriate operating frequencies (in the case of GSM network) or scrambling codes (in the case of a UMTS network), and appropriate transmit powers. This makes it practical for a large number of such basestations to be deployed in a network, within customers' premises, without requiring network intervention in each case. | 12-16-2010 |
