565 results about "Base station subsystem" patented technology

The base station subsystem (BSS) is the section of a traditional cellular telephone network which is responsible for handling traffic and signaling between a mobile phone and the network switching subsystem. The BSS carries out transcoding of speech channels, allocation of radio channels to mobile phones, paging, transmission and reception over the air interface and many other tasks related to the radio network.

Method for radio resource control

In order to control the use of physical radio resources, the physical radio resources are divided into chronologically consecutive frames (14), so that a frame contains slots (16, 17, 18) of various sizes, which slots represent a given share of the physical radio resources contained in the frame and can be individually allocated to different radio connections. The first dimension of a frame is time and the second dimension can be time, frequency or code. In the direction of the second dimension the slots represent various sizes, and a given first integral number of slots of the first size can be modularly replaced by another integral number of slots of another size. A certain number of consecutive frames form a superframe (19), in which case frames with corresponding locations in consecutive superframes are equal in slot division and allocations, if the data transmission demands do not change. Changes in the state of occupancy of the slots are possible at each superframe. In order to form an uplink connection, the mobile station sends a capacity request, where it indicates the type of requested connection and the demand of resources. In order to form a downlink connection, the base station subsystem sends a paging call, where it indicates the location in the superframe of the slots allocated to the connection. In order to indicate the state of occupancy, the base station subsystem maintains a superframe-size parametrized reservation table.

Wireless communication system with dynamic channel allocation

A plurality of base stations communicate with a plurality of mobile units. Each base station includes a base station transceiver that receives inbound information from the mobile units and transmits outbound information to the mobile units. A mobile switching center (MSC) is coupled to the base stations and communicates the inbound information and outbound information with the base stations. The base stations each include signal detectors that detect signal strength of the inbound information, co-channel information and adjacent channel information. The MSC maintains a table of signal strength per communication channel and allocates communication channels to the base stations based on the signal strength information. The inventive dynamic channel allocation includes several channel allocation algorithms that can be active at the same time. Only one of the algorithms is active at a time. The choice of the algorithm is based on current interference conditions and traffic load. The invention is implemented in the MSC and base stations of a digital cellular network using wideband technology for its air interface. While the decision-making mechanism and the channel allocation algorithms are implemented in the MSC, the protocol between the MSC and base stations is extended to support the proposed concept for dynamic channel allocation. Advantages of the invention includes improved communication and reduced interference.

Methods and apparatus to support base station detection and selection in multi-tier wireless networks

A subscriber station can efficiently determine an accessible base station by scanning a subset of base stations based on an optimized list received from a serving base station. The subscriber station includes a white list that contains information regarding a number of closed subscriber group (CSG) base stations to which the subscriber station is subscribed. The subscriber station can transmit a request message that includes one or more of: indication of whether the detected identifier of the femto base station is in the whitelist or not; and its location information. In response, the base station can send a message that includes the nearby femtocells and whether the femtocell is accessible or inaccessible to the subscriber station. The femto base station can be designed to be in transmission off mode when none of its subscribers is in its coverage. The serving base station can select a set of the accessible femtocells to the subscriber station, and request the selected femtocells to monitor an uplink signaling of the subscriber station so that the femtocell can be awaken when the femtocell is in transmission off mode or be aware that the subscriber station is in proximity, if the uplink signaling is detected.

System and method of reallocating satellite gateways in a radio telecommunications network

A method of handling an incoming call to a mobile station (MS) in a radio telecommunications network having a gateway mobile switching center (G-MSC) and a home location register (HLR), and the MS communicates with the network via a satellite link comprising a satellite and a satellite gateway. The method includes storing in the HLR, a plurality of primary gateways and an associated backup gateway for each primary gateway in the network. If the primary gateway serving the MS fails while the satellite is still operational, the incoming call is routed from the G-MSC to the backup gateway. The backup gateway's base station subsystem (BSS) is reconfigured to cover the service area of the primary gateway, and the MS is notified that the backup gateway has replaced the primary gateway as the MS's serving gateway. Subscriber data for the called MS is provided to the backup gateway by the HLR. If the satellite fails, the HLR instructs the G-MSC to route the call directly to voice mail when the HLR receives a request for routing information from the G-MSC.

Method and system for efficient distribution of multicast services in a mobile network

An acknowledged MBMS service in which a procedure for providing retransmissions of incorrectly received data blocks is performed, together with an outer coding of the data blocks to be transmitted to the MBMS MSs. A sequence of data blocks carrying information related to the MBMS service is encoded at a BSS (Base Station Sub-system) of the mobile network by an outer coding unit. After the outer coding, the resulting data block sequence is sent to the MBMS MSs. If a data block of the outer coded sequence is badly received by a number of MBMS MSs, corresponding negative acknowledgements (nacks) are sent by such MSs to the BSS. The MSs also notify the BSS, with a positive acknowledgement, if they succeed in outer code decoding the sequence of the MBMS carrying information data blocks, in spite of possible badly received data blocks. The BSS manages retransmissions of the nacked data blocks taking into account the positive acknowledgements related to the outer code decoding by disabling retransmission of nacked data blocks of a positively acknowledged sequence.

In this invention, we disclose methods for enabling ad hoc cellular base station functionality within a user equipment when the connection quality between a base station and the user equipment is limited or nonexistent. These methods include measuring a connection quality between a user equipment and its serving base station. If the connection quality is below a threshold, the user equipment can enable its internal ad hoc cellular base station functionality. This is done by running a software within the user equipment that (a) checks the connection quality periodically, and (b) enables ad hoc cellular base station functionality of the connection threshold dips below a certain value. In one embodiment, that threshold could be the same threshold value that a user equipment would use if it were making a decision to handoff to another base station based on poor connection quality.
