Scheduling data across a shared communication link in a cellular communication system

A system is provided for scheduling data from a network element (101), such as an RNC (101), of a cellular communication system to at least one base station (103) across a shared communication link (105) shared between a plurality of cell sectors (107-111). The apparatus comprises resource allocators (113, 115, 117) each of which schedules data for a single cell sector (107-111). A resource determination processor (119) dynamically determines a resource requirement parameter for at least one of the cell sectors (107-111). The resource determination processor (119) is coupled to a resource assignment processor (121) which dynamically assigns a resource availability of the shared communication link (105) to each of the resource allocators (113, 115, 117) in response to the resource requirement parameter. The resource allocators (113, 115, 117) then schedule data for communication over the shared communication link in response to the resource availability. The invention provides improved utilisation of a shared communication link (105) while allowing independent scheduling by resource allocators associated with a single cell.

Dynamic assignment and validation of IP addresses in wireless IP networks

The transmission of unnecessary assignment and validation information to mobile terminals in wireless IP networks is automatically blocked. Assignment and validation information originating with a mobile terminal is discarded by a base station if the information is not directly received by the base station from a mobile terminal. Assignment and validation information originating with an IP address server is broadcast only to those mobile terminals awaiting assignment or validation information using a local broadcast IP address. The validation and assignment is automatically begun once a mobile terminal enters a new subnet by resetting the mobile terminal's IP address to the broadcast address for assignment and validation requests and then broadcasting validation and, if necessary, assignment requests to the wireless IP network.

System for providing projected information combined with outside scenery

A system for producing a display image on a transparent, semi-transparent or translucent surface, without the need for an integral light source. The system includes a reflective surface that utilizes external light to project the display image in a selectable direction. A light collecting element collects and directs ambient light to the reflective surface. A display processor creates the display image and transmits the image onto an optical device. The optical device that has a reflective polarizer accepts the projected display image. The optical device selectively reflects light of the projected display image, and while controlling the optical properties of the light from second direction it combines the projected display image with the light from the second direction.

Method for controlling data transmission from a machine-type communication entity and corresponding entity

A method for controlling data transmission from a machine-type communication (MTC) entity over a radio network in a wireless telecommunications system is described. The method comprises receiving from the radio network a transmission cost parameter representing a cost associated with transmitting data over the radio network; and controlling data transmission from the MTC entity in dependence on the transmission cost parameter. Thus the MTC entity is able to select times and / or manner of data transmissions to reduce the overall cost of using the network. Furthermore, the radio network is able to dynamically manage traffic load by providing a cost incentive for transmitting MTC data when network resources are under utilised and applying a cost penalty for transmissions made while the network is relatively busy.
