20100128677 | SERVICE CONTINUITY DURING LOCAL BREAKOUT IN A FEMTOCELL - A system and methodology that facilitates service continuity when a user equipment (UE), employing local breakout mechanisms at a femto access point (FAP) for a communication session, moves out of the femto coverage area is provided. In particular, a network change detection component can be employed to detect when the UE, attached to the FAP, changes its connection from the femto network to the macro network. Further, an active communication session can exist between the UE and a device/service/application on a local Area network (LAN) connected to a FAP, and/or the Internet, which utilizes local breakout at the FAP. When the UE moves out of the femto network, a context management component can be employed to seamlessly resume the communication session, via the macro network. | 05-27-2010 |
20100128708 | FEMTOCELL LOCAL BREAKOUT MECHANISMS - A system and methodology that employs local breakout mechanisms at a femto access point (FAP) to facilitate efficient utilization of backhaul and/or macro networks is provided. In particular, a slave Gateway GPRS Support Node (GGSN) can be integrated within the FAP to directly route the incoming traffic from a user equipment (UE) at the FAP. In one example, Internet bound traffic can be directly routed to the Internet, without employing macro network resources. Further, the system can avoid hairpinning by routing traffic between the UE and a home Local Area Network (LAN) by a anchoring a call or a session in the slave GGSN and facilitate integration of UEs with home applications by employing a UE Digital Home Agent. In addition, the FAP can perform UE-to-UE CS media breakout to facilitate communication between UEs attached to the FAP, without routing the traffic through the core macro network. | 05-27-2010 |
20100128709 | HOME SERVICE INTEGRATION AND MANAGEMENT BY EMPLOYING LOCAL BREAKOUT MECHANISMS IN A FEMTOCELL - A system and methodology that facilitates home services integration by employing a local breakout mechanism at a femto access point (AP) is provided. In particular, the system can perform mapping to provide home functions to an authorized user equipment (UE) attached to the femto AP and provide integration with one or more home services. Further, a monitoring component is employed for home monitoring and facilitates monitoring and/or controlling devices on the home Local Area Network (LAN) via the UE. Furthermore, an access management component is utilized to set, manage and implement access privileges associated with UEs authorized to access the DH LAN. In addition, shared location data is determined and utilized for location based management and/or location assistance services. | 05-27-2010 |
20100130170 | FEMTOCELL LOCAL BREAKOUT MANAGEMENT SERVICES - A system and methodology that provides management services during local breakout at a femto access point (FAP) is provided. In particular, the FAP facilitates policy management and employs a policy component to perform an analysis and enforce a set of policies for dynamically selecting an optimal route for traffic received at the FAP based on a decision-making process. Typically, the set of policies can specify different routes based on various factors, such as, but not limited to, type of traffic, current and/or future network resource availability, current time, day and/or date, location of the FAP, location of a UE sending/receiving the traffic, a lowest cost route, and/or route based on cost-benefit, etc. Further, a monitoring component is employed to observe the route employed by that traffic, which can be utilized by various services, such as, billing, Quality of Service, security management, address management, failure management and/or provisioning. | 05-27-2010 |
20120020307 | AUTOMATED WIRELESS ACCESS POINT RESOURCE ALLOCATION AND OPTIMIZATION - Systems, methods, and apparatus for facilitating automated wireless access point resource allocation and optimization are presented herein. An external data store (EDS) component can automatically select, based on spatial data of at least one polygon including at least one wireless access point, one or more parameters associated with wireless communications of the at least one wireless access point. Further, an access point provisioning gateway (APPG) can remotely initiate the at least one wireless access point to automatically configure equipment of the at least one wireless access point to service the wireless communications using at least one of the one or more parameters. Furthermore, a boundary generation component can automatically generate the spatial data by at least one of: combining spatial data of two or more polygons; splitting a polygon into at least two polygons; or expanding a boundary of the polygon. | 01-26-2012 |
