| 20080212529 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CHANGING A MULTICAST AND BROADCAST SERVICE (MCBCS) BROADCASTING CHANNEL IN A BROADBAND WIRELESS ACCESS SYSTEM - An apparatus and a method for changing a MultiCast and BroadCast Service (MCBCS) broadcasting channel in a Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) system are provided. The method includes, if an MCBCS initialization request message is received from an MCBCS server, sending a burst reservation request message for MCBCS burst allocation to one or more Base Stations (BSs) in a corresponding Multicast and Broadcast Service (MBS) zone, and if a burst reservation response message is received from at least one of the one or more BSs, sending a Resource Reservation (RR) request message for each channel to the at least one of the one or more BSs for establishing data channels for each channel broadcast by the MCBCS server. Accordingly, a channel transition delay time resulting from a user's channel change can be reduced. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20090069003 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SUPPORTING MULTICAST AND BROADCAST SERVICE IN A BROADBAND WIRELESS ACCESS (BWA) SYSTEM - An apparatus and a method for providing a MultiCast and BroadCast Service (MCBCS) in a Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) system are provided. The method includes receiving a message comprising information relating to a broadcast channel which carries a service guide, from a Base Station (BS), receiving service guides relating to one or more service providers over the broadcast channel using the information, when the received service guides are fragmented service guides having a certain size, generating a unified service guide by reassembling the fragmented service guides and when one service provider is selected, filtering only a service guide of the selected service provider in the unified service guide and displaying the filtered service guide in a display. Thus, the channel transition time can be reduced. | 03-12-2009 |
| 20090122734 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MULTICAST AND BROADCAST SERVICE IN A BROADBAND WIRELESS ACCESS SYSTEM - An apparatus and method for providing a Multicast and Broadcast Service (MBS) in a Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) system are provided. The apparatus includes a fragmentation unit, a Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) packet generator, and a communication unit. The fragmentation unit fragmentizes MBS traffic received from a network for synchronization. The GRE packet generator generates a GRE packet with each of segments from the fragmentation unit. The communication unit transmits the GRE packet from the GRE packet generator to a Base Station (BS) in consideration of a packet period. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20090190518 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CREATING DATA PATH FOR BROADCASTING SERVICE IN CELLULAR NETWORK - An apparatus and method for creating a data path for a broadcasting service in a cellular network is provided. In a method for creating a data path to provide a broadcasting service in a cellular network, a broadcast server transmits a session start request message to an Access Service Network-GateWay (ASN_GW) before transmission of Multicast and Broadcast Service (MBS) data, to request a multicast connection setup. The ASN_GW establishes a multicast connection between the broadcast server and the ASN_GW on the basis of information of the session start request message. The ASN_GW transmits a session start response message to the broadcast server in response to the session start request message, after establishment of the multicast connection between the broadcast server and the ASN_GW. The ASN_GW transmits a path registration request message to at least one base station associated with a broadcast zone, to request MBS data path establishment and air resource reservation. The base station establishes a multicast connection between the ASN_GW and the base station on the basis of information of the path registration request message. The base station transmits a path registration response message to the ASN_GW in response to the path registration request message, after establishment of the multicast connection between the ASN_GW and the base station. | 07-30-2009 |
| 20110069659 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING LOCAL BREAKOUT SERVICE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A method and an apparatus for providing a Local BreakOut (LBO) service in a wireless communication system are provided. In the method for providing an LBO service in a wireless communication system, after an access authentication procedure between an authentication server and a terminal, a femto gateway receives a subscriber profile including LBO service flow information from the authentication server to provide the LBO service flow information to a femto base station through initial service flow setting between the terminal and the femto gateway. The femto base station sets an LBO service flow through a Dynamic Service Addition (DSA) procedure. The terminal performs a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) procedure through the LBO service flow setting, and obtains an IP address for LBO based on the DHCP procedure. | 03-24-2011 |
| 20110076987 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CHANGING ACCESS SERVICE NETWORK OF MOBILE STATION IN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A method and a system for relocating an Access Service Network (ASN) of a Mobile Station (MS) in a communication system are provided. In the method, when an MS that operates in an idle mode moves from a first ASN to a second ASN, the MS transmits a ranging request message to a base station of the second ASN in order to update a location. The base station transmits a location update request message to an ASN-GateWay (GW) of the second ASN according to the ranging request message. When the location update request message is received, the ASN-GW transmits a relocation notify message including type information for location update to the first ASN. The first ASN transmits a relocation notify response message including paging information to the ASN-GW according to the relocation notify message. | 03-31-2011 |
| 20110107087 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR REFRESHING MASTER SESSION KEY IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A Master Session Key (MSK) refresh in a wireless communication system is provided. A MSK refreshing method MSK includes when receiving a first Media Access Control (MAC) message including MSK refresh indication information from a Base Station (BS), generating, at a Mobile Station (MS), an Extended Master Session Key (EMSK)_Hash by applying a hash function to an EMSK and sending a second MAC message including the EMSK_Hash, sending, at the BS, a context request message including the EMSK_Hash to an Access Service Network GateWay (ASN-GW), sending, at the ASN-GW, an authentication request message including the EMSK_Hash to an authentication server, when receiving the authentication request message including the EMSK_Hash, confirming, at the authentication server, the same EMSK as the MS based on the EMSK_Hash, determining an MSK | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110299469 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING PAGING MESSAGE USING BAND INFORMATION IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A method and an apparatus for transmitting and receiving a paging message in a wireless communication system are provided. A Base Station (BS) transmits, to a Mobile Station (MS) in an idle mode, a Paging Group IDentification Information (PGID_Info) message including paging group information for a paging group to which the BS belongs, and frequency band-specific paging carrier information for indicating at least one of paging carriers included in each of a plurality of frequency bands operated by the BS. The BS determines a paging carrier for transmitting the paging message among paging carriers included in a frequency band supported by the MS, and transmits the paging message to the MS using the determined paging carrier. By doing so, reception of the paging message in the frequency band supported by the MS is guaranteed, thereby preventing the unnecessary location update procedure. | 12-08-2011 |
