20120106391 | INFORMATION TRANSMISSION IN A MACHINE-TO-MACHINE TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORK - The invention relates to a method for information transmission in a machine-to-machine telecommunications network and a machine-to-machine telecommunications network. The telecommunications network supports information transmission between a server and a plurality of communication terminals. A common group identifier is assigned to a group containing at least some of the plurality of communication terminals. An information message is transmitted to the plurality of communication terminals to which the common group identifier has been assigned. The information message contains the common group identifier. | 05-03-2012 |
20120329455 | Method and Telecommunications Infrastructure Enabling Localized Time Controlled Access for a Device - An infrastructure and method is disclosed for controlling wireless access to a telecommunications infrastructure for a device. A first access grant time interval applicable for granting access for the device to the telecommunications infrastructure is stored in a device register system. The first access grant time interval is applied when the device requests access to the telecommunications infrastructure via a first network node of the telecommunications infrastructure. However, a second access grant time interval is applied in a second network node of the telecommunications infrastructure when the device requests access via the second network node. The second access grant time interval is applicable for granting access for the device to the telecommunications infrastructure and is different from the first access grant time interval. | 12-27-2012 |
20130005273 | Method and System for Accessing a Telecommunications Network - The invention relates to a method and network for receiving at least a first access request from a first device and a second access request from a second device. A first message is transmitted from the network to the first device, wherein the first message comprises a first access time or first access time window. Similarly, a second message is transmitted from the network to the second device, wherein the second message comprises a second access time or second access time window. The first access time or first access time window is different from the second access time or second access time window. Subsequent to the first message, the network receives the first access request from the first communication device at or after the first access time or within the first access time window and, subsequent to the second message, the network receives the second access request at or after the second access time or within the second access time window from the second device. | 01-03-2013 |

20150327306 | Method, Telecommunications Node and Telecommunications Terminal - The invention relates to a method for establishing a communication service with a user equipment in the coverage area of a base station is disclosed. The base station is part of a telecommunication system comprising a plurality of base stations connected to a core network containing a connection information database. In the method, at least one communication identifier is received by the base station of the user equipment in the coverage area of the base station after the base station has processed information indicative of a disconnection between the base station and the connection information database, e.g. a disconnection between the base station and the core network. The received at least one communication identifier is stored in a local storage associated with the base station. The communication service is established via the base station using the communication identifier from the local storage. | 11-12-2015 |
