| 20140029576 | MULTIPLE NETWORK ACCESS SYSTEM AND METHOD - Methods and devices for operating a wireless communication device that can communicate with at least two different wireless networks using a single radio frequency modem are described. The communication device attaches to a first wireless network through the radio frequency (RF) modem, and then detaches from the first wireless network at a predetermined time before a start time of a selected event on a second wireless network. The device attaches to the second wireless network using the same RF modem before the start time of the selected event and collects at least a portion of event data associated with the selected event. After collecting at least a portion of event data, the device detaches from the second wireless network and re-attaches to the first wireless network. | 2014-01-30 |
| 20140029577 | Handover Signaling in a Wireless Network - A serving base station transmits to a target base station a first message comprising a parameter indicating whether a wireless device supports an enhanced physical downlink control channel (ePDCCH). The serving base station receives from the target base station a second message comprising parameters indicating: a configuration of a subset of subframes in which first radio resources of a first ePDCCH are configured; and a starting OFDM symbol of the first ePDCCH in the subset of subframes. The serving base station transmits a third message to the wireless device comprising the configuration information of the first ePDCCH. | 2014-01-30 |
| 20140029578 | Call Handoff Between Different Networks - Disclosed are techniques for hosting a communication session in a call server between communication devices. The call server functions as a bridge service between the communication devices joining an original communication link between the first communication device and the call server with a second communication link between the second communication device and the call server. The first communication device includes at least two RF transceivers each capable of communicating with the call server over a separate network. The call server receives a signal from the first communication device indicative of the need to handoff the original communication link to an alternate communication link on an alternate network. The call server establishes the alternate communication link with the first communication device on the alternate network and joins it with the second communication link to maintain the communication session between the communication devices. | 2014-01-30 |
| 20140029579 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETERMINING CONTINUOUS SESSION SUPPORT DURING SUPPORT OF LIMONET IN MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - According to an embodiment of the present invention, the invention discovers an address of a LGW, which can be sued in HeNB, determines whether session continuity is supported or not when a terminal using the LGW is moved to another HeNB in a network wherein a structure supporting Session Continuity and a structure not supporting Session Continuity are mixed, and processes active mode mobility and idle mode mobility based on the same. To this end, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for transmitting the LGW and HeNB ID association information through DNS and S1AP, and a method for processing idle mode mobility and active mode mobility by using LGW information and HeNB ID association information in MME. | 2014-01-30 |
| 20140029580 | HANDOVER DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SERVICE CONTINUITY IN MBMS - Disclosed are a handover device and method for service continuity in an MBMS. Disclosed is a terminal comprising: a transmission unit for transmitting to the terminal and a linked source base station, an MBMS service indicator including information indicating whether an MBMS service is being received, and information on the type of the MBMS service; and a reception unit for receiving from the source base station, an MBMS service response indicator for indicating that the MBMS service is transmitted from a target base station forming a new link with the terminal through a handover, and receiving the MBMS service from the target base station. The present invention enables continuous reception of the MBMS service when cell is changed due to movement while the terminal is receiving the MBMS service. | 2014-01-30 |
