20130035098 | UNIQUELY IDENTIFYING TARGET FEMTOCELL TO FACILITATE ACTIVE HAND-IN - A method for macrocell-to-femtocell hand-in includes: communicating a non-directed proximity request message from a femto-proxy system over an out-of-band (OOB) channel, the proximity request message configured to be received by any of a plurality of access terminals when in proximity to the femto-proxy system, the femto-proxy system comprising an OOB radio and a femtocell communicatively coupled with a core network element; receiving a proximity response message over the OOB link from an access terminal of the plurality of access terminals in response to the proximity request message, the proximity response message indicating that the access terminal is in proximity to the femto-proxy system; communicating a presence indication from the femtocell to a core network element indicating proximity of the access terminal to the femtocell; and facilitating active hand-in of the access terminal from a source macrocell of a macro network to the femtocell. | 02-07-2013 |

20100284387 | PAGING FOR LOCAL IP ACCESS PACKETS - Local IP access paging schemes facilitate paging of an access terminal when packets destined for the access terminal are received via local IP access. In some implementations, a local entity acquires information that enables local paging of the access terminal by sniffing messages passing through the local entity. In some implementations, a local entity sends a packet or message to cause the core network to page an access terminal when a local IP access packet destined for the access terminal arrives at the local entity. | 11-11-2010 |

20120309394 | APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR HAND-IN TO A FEMTO NODE - Methods and apparatuses are provided for causing active hand-in of a device from a macrocell base station to a femto node, which can be an inter-frequency hand-in. The femto node can broadcast a beacon, which can be received and reported by a device to a source base station along with one or more parameters for disambiguating a target femto node. The source base station can communicate a handover message to the femto node or a related femto gateway along with the one or more parameters. The femto node or femto gateway can disambiguate the intended target femto node based in part on the one or more parameters, which can include applying one or more filters. Additionally, the femto node can broadcast multiple beacons to assist in disambiguation of the target femto node. Also, where complete disambiguation is not possible, the femto gateway can prepare multiple femto nodes for hand-in. | 12-06-2012 |
