A method for resetting a MAC-hs (Medium Access Control-high speed) layer entity in a communication system using HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access). When an RLC (Radio Link Control) layer entity is reset due to occurrence a protocol error, the system resets both a MAC-hs layer entity of the RLC layer entity and its counterpart RLC, thus preventing unnecessary data transmission.

In a computer system having a bus architecture, a system and process for isolating a device from a bus without interrupting system operation is described, the system including bus interface logic monitoring and reporting activity on the bus, isolation control logic receiving error signals from error detectors, and isolation switches through which devices are interconnected to the bus, the isolation switches allowing for the isolation of the devices from the bus. The isolation control logic determines the devices to be isolated responsive to the reported error and, in turn, transmits an isolation switch control signal to the isolation switch(es) associated with the identified device(s) to isolate those device(s) from the bus. In some embodiments, errors are reported by system software, input / output virtual address error detectors for systems using virtual memory addressing, protocol error detectors, and sensors sensing the physical removal of a bus-connected device from its bus interface slot.

A system and method for automatically diagnosing protocol errors from packet traces is provided. The system and method performs an automatic trace analysis on a packet trace to generate an analysis that is then fed into a diagnosis / resolution module. The diagnosis / resolution compares the trace analysis with the database of known problems to identify the protocol error and a suggested solution. The suggested solution then may be implemented, either by a user or by the DR module, to correct the protocol error.

Within a hard handoff procedure of a mobile terminal from a first radio sector to a second radio sector, a handoff manager requests the allocation of network resources associated with the second radio sector for the mobile terminal. If the second radio sector does not have sufficient network resources to support the mobile terminal, the handoff manager instructs the mobile terminal to switch into a dormant mode. By doing this, the handoff manager can delay the disconnection of the packet data session until there is sufficient network resources or until an internal packet data protocol error occurs due to a request timing out. In the case that sufficient resources become available, the handoff manager instructs the mobile terminal to return to a connected mode. One advantage of this procedure is the reduced need to re-establish a data packet session in cases that there is a temporary lack of sufficient network resources during a hard handoff.

In a method for controlling data traffic in a wireless or other communication network, one or more hardware / software agents are deployed to interface with one or more network entities such as routers, switches, backhaul transmission lines, and wireless base stations. The agents monitor the L1 (physical) and L2 (data link) layers of the network for the presence of indicators associated with network failover operations, such as DS1 alarms and protocol errors, respectively. Based on detected indicators across all monitored network entities, the agents determine if a failover operation has occurred. If so, data congestion associated with the failover operation is controlled according to a failover congestion monitoring and recovery mode (e.g., a data source backoff model), to reduce instances of dropped calls that would otherwise occur if the failover congestion were handled according to a general purpose congestion monitoring and recovery mode of the network.

A process of using a cache of outgoing packet identifiers to recover from a protocol error includes assigning a receive identifier associated with a user entity to a traffic stream at a receive node. The receive identifier is sent to a transmit node. The transmit node is instructed to associate the receive identifier with a receive plurality of data packets of the traffic stream. The transmit identifier associated with the user entity is assigned to the traffic stream at the transmit node. The transmit node identifier, the receive node identifier, and the address of the receive node are stored in a transmit cache at the transmit node for each of the receive plurality of data packets. The receive plurality of data packets is sent from the transmit node to the receive node. An error message is received at the transmit node from the receive node, indicating that the receive identifier was not recognized. The transmit cache is searched for the transmit node identifier using the receive node identifier and the address of the receive node. The user entity associated with the transmit node identifier is identified, and the user entity is removed.

Malfunctioning or misbehaving mobile stations (12), that are capable nonetheless of continuing to communicate with a wireless communication system (10), are detected for the purposes of either shutting down misbehaving mobile stations or reporting misbehaving mobile stations so that corrective action can be taken. An error detector and interpreter (23) detect (42) in wireless communication signals received from a mobile station any breach of protocol errors indicative of faulty operation of the mobile station.
