20100054135 | IP MOBILITY FOR DEVICES WITH MULTIPLE RADIOS - A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) includes a mobility management function and a multihoming function. The mobility management function may implement the Media Independent Handover (MIH) protocol and the multihoming function may implement the Shim | 03-04-2010 |
20120144062 | MPTCP And Mobile IP Interworking - Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed that provide coordination between MPTCP and mobile IP (MIP). An MPTCP session may be established between a mobile node and a correspondent node. MIP and simple IP subflows may be established in the MPTCP session. The mobile node may activate MIP and establish a first subflow via MIP. The first subflow may be associated with a first path that may be routed through a first home agent. The mobile node may deactivate MIP and establish a second subflow via simple internet protocol (IP). The second subflow may be associated with a second path that is not routed through a home agent. | 06-07-2012 |
20120258674 | SESSION MANAGER AND SOURCE INTERNET PROTOCOL (IP) ADDRESS SELECTION - Embodiments contemplate one or more Session Manager and/or source IP address selection techniques. Embodiments contemplate that a session manager may establish a session in a wireless communication environment based on one or more policies specified by a policy manager. The session manager may also delete the session. For example, the session may be deleted in response to receipt of a request from an application. The session manager may store a session description for the session. The session manager may also perform source IP selection for a data plane. The session manager may also provide an MC transport with IP addresses for negotiating additional sub-flows. | 10-11-2012 |
20120271938 | Socket Application Program Interface (API) Extension - Embodiments contemplate one or more socket application program interface (API) extensions that may provide one or more Internet Protocol Address lists. Embodiments may include determining a state (or status) of one or more available Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Further, embodiments may include communicating the state (or status) of the available Internet addresses to a Multi Connection Transport Protocol. | 10-25-2012 |
20120275323 | SCALABLE POLICY-CONTROLLED PACKET INSPECTION SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ADVANCED APPLICATION INTERFACE - Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed to determine quality of service information. A device, such as a user equipment (UE), may receive a policy. The policy may indicate a level of inspection relating to application identification for a session. The device may receive information associated with the session. For example, the information may include application provided information, packet data, operating system provided information, etc. The device may perform an inspection of the received information at the level indicated by the policy. The device may perform the inspection in order to identify an application associated with the session. | 11-01-2012 |
20120324100 | METHODS, SYSTEMS AND APPARATUS FOR MANAGING AND/OR ENFORCING POLICIES FOR MANAGING INTERNET PROTOCOL ("IP") TRAFFIC AMONG MULTIPLE ACCESSES OF A NETWORK - Methods, systems and apparatus for managing and/or enforcing one or more policies for managing internet protocol (“IP”) traffic among multiple accesses of a network in accordance with a policy for managing bandwidth among the multiple accesses are disclosed. Among the methods, systems and apparatus is a method that may include obtaining performance metrics associated with the multiple accesses. The method may also include adapting one or more rules of one or more the policies for managing IP traffic among the plurality of accesses based, at least in part, on the performance metrics and the policy for managing bandwidth among the plurality of accesses. The method may further include managing IP traffic associated with at least one wireless transmit and/or receive unit (“WTRU”) among the plurality of accesses responsive to the adapted rules. | 12-20-2012 |
20130170351 | MANAGING DATA MOBILITY POLICIES - Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed to communicate traffic flow information to a network. A user equipment (UE) may detect a traffic flow (e.g., using one or more of the traffic detection implementations described herein). A 5-tuple associated with the traffic flow may be unknown by the network. The UE may issue an alert to the network. The alert may indicate to the network that the traffic flow has been detected. The UE may determine the 5-tuple associated with the traffic flow. The UE may report the 5-tuple to the network. The report may be in response to one or more of: a request received from the network requesting traffic flow information; or, a determination that a first policy condition has been met. | 07-04-2013 |
20140169306 | METHOD FOR SENDING AN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT TO AN INGRESS MESH POINT IN A MESH NETWORK AND A MEDIUM ACCESS CONTROL FRAME FORMAT - The present invention relates to a method for confirming the delivery of a data packet in a mesh network by sending an acknowledgement (ACK) to an ingress mesh point (IMP). A mesh network comprises a plurality of mesh points that are wirelessly linked together. A data packet sent by a station (STA) is received by an IMP. A MAC frame is generated for transmission of the data packet and the frame is forwarded to an egress mesh point (EMP) in order to provide a service by the mesh network. The MAC frame includes a field comprising an IMP address and an EMP address. When the EMP, (or optionally an intermediate mesh point), receives a data packet successfully, the EMP or the intermediate mesh point sends an ACK to the IMP or preceding mesh point. | 06-19-2014 |
20140192772 | APPARATUS TO ENABLE FALLBACK TO CIRCUIT SWITCHED DOMAIN FROM PACKET SWITCHED DOMAIN - An apparatus is used to perform a Circuit Switched (CS) fallback in wireless communications. The Non-Access Stratum (NAS) of the apparatus determines whether to perform a CS fallback based on an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) registration status, and sends a service request indicating a request to perform the CS fallback when the WTRU is attached to a CS domain. The apparatus also includes an Access Stratum (AS) that receives the CS service request from the NAS, sends an indication of the CS service request in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message to an Evolved Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN), wherein the RRC message includes CS service information, and receives a handover command in response to the CS service request. | 07-10-2014 |
