20080207230 | Multi-Mode Communication System and Method Thereof - The present invention relates to a multi-mode communication system and a method thereof. The multi-mode communication system uses a first mode among a plurality communication modes for accessing a first mobility control entity (MCE) among a plurality of MCEs, and communicates data with the first MCE. The multi-mode communication system receives a paging request that has been transmitted from a multi-mode control entity (MMCE) for accessing a second MCE from the first MCE and analyzes the paging request, and puts the first mode into a sleep mode and a second mode for accessing the second MCE into an awake mode based on the analysis. Subsequently, multi-mode UE accesses the second MCE by using the second mode in the awake mode. According to the present invention, an MMCE for multi-mode control is provided to integrate and manage an idle state for each access mode of multi-mode user equipment, thereby minimizing power consumption due to access of the multi-mode UE to a radio access system. In addition, a change of the access of the multi-mode UE to the radio access system due to a paging request can be efficiently performed. | 08-28-2008 |
20090279515 | Apparatus and a method for service continuity between umts network and wlan - The present invention relates to a method for guaranteeing service continuity between a 3GPP network and a non-3GPP network. According to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, when a mobile station receiving a service from the 3GPP network moves to the non-3GPP network or it moves back to the 3GPP network from the non-3GPP network, an inter-working gateway inter-works with a SGSN or a GGSN through the 3GPP network to provide a seamless service to a mobile subscriber. | 11-12-2009 |
20090286527 | Apparatus and a method for service continuity between umts network and wlan network - Service continuity is provided between a 3GPP network and a non-3GPP network. When a mobile station having accepted service in the 3GPP network moves to the non-3GPP network or returns from the non-3GPP network to the 3GPP network, an interworking gateway is interworked with a GGSN through a universal tunnel using a packet data network, and accordingly a mobile subscriber may accept seamless service. | 11-19-2009 |
20110164588 | MOBILE TERMINAL AND METHOD OF PERFORMING HANDOVER - Enclosed are a mobile terminal and a method of performing handover. The mobile terminal is connected to a selected network among a plurality of networks sensed in accordance with the movement of the mobile terminal so that handover is performed between different networks and that a service used by the mobile terminal is continuously provided. Therefore, the convenience of a user is improved and network utility is improved. | 07-07-2011 |
20110200006 | HANDOVER METHOD OF MOBILE TERMINAL BETWEEN HETEROGENEOUS NETWORKS - The present invention relates to a handover method of a mobile terminal between heterogeneous networks. The present invention may provide a handover method ensuring service continuity between heterogeneous networks by transmitting an IP address of a mobile terminal to a mobile IP management server and activating or inactivating a PDP context when the mobile terminal connected to one of a mobile communication network or a wireless LAN is handed over to the other. | 08-18-2011 |
20120163262 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MONITORING BATTERY LIFESPAN OF MACHINE TYPE COMMUNICATION DEVICE - The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for monitoring a battery lifespan of a machine type communication device, and more particularly, to an apparatus and method for preventing a disconnection in communication due to a battery being expended by verifying a battery lifespan of the machine type communication device in a network. The present invention may include detecting a residual capacity of a battery power supply, comparing the residual capacity of the battery power supply to a threshold required for a power supply, and warning against a shortage of the residual capacity of the battery power supply when the residual capacity of the battery power supply is less than or equal to the threshold required for the power supply. | 06-28-2012 |
20120163271 | DATA TRANSMITTING METHOD FOR MACHINE TYPE COMMUNICATION SERVICE AND MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM USING THE SAME - Provided is a data transmitting method for providing a machine type communication (MTC) service in a mobile communication system. The method includes subscribing, by the MTC device, to a multicast service, and recognizing, by the MTC device, at least one wirelessly announced multicast service and performing joining for a desired multicast service. In cases other than a case in which the MTC device performs the joining to transmit collected data information, the method further includes starting, by a broadcast multicast-service center, a session for the multicast service, performing group paging for at least one MTC device that will receive the multicast service, and transmitting multicast service-related data to the at least one MTC device that will receive the multicast service. | 06-28-2012 |
