The All Purpose Networks Inc invention works as follows

A wireless RF node is connected with a communication network, and is designed to provide communication services to multiple mobile entities. The server is connected to the network and includes a first publish/subscribe communication facility. This server is part of a network that consists of one or more publish/subscribe communications facilities. The publish-subscribe network can be used to distribute data packets to entities who have published packets of data and to entities that subscribe to receive those packets. The publish-subscribe network allows a second entity to receive communications from a mobile entity by connecting to one of the publish subscribe broker communication facilities.

Background for Methods of an all-purpose broadband network with publish/subscribe broker networks

This disclosure is about broadband networks and, more specifically, methods and systems to increase bandwidth in a large-area broadband network.

DESCRIPTION of RELATED ART

Wireless networks are ubiquitously deployed around the world, and each new standard air interface provides ever-higher rates of data to users. The popularity of data applications and video applications is increasing to the point that the increased data rates and capacity of 3G and4G networks cannot meet current and future bandwidth demands. It is difficult to meet the demands of users due to a combination of factors. The air interface is one of the main factors. New standards, such as 3GPP LTE (Long-Term Evolution) and 3GPP 3GPP, offer users data rates up to 20 Mbps or higher. Due to the distribution of users in the area covered by a Cell transmitter, a Cell average throughput of 13 Mbps is possible. It is not sufficient to provide video services for more than a few users. It is therefore necessary to increase the efficiency of the LTE air-interface. Inter-cell interference, caused by the overlap between RF signals of transmitting cells, reduces data rates and capacity that can be offered to users located at the boundary between cells. Inter-cell interference can be reduced or eliminated to improve system capacity, throughput and quality of service for these users. A second factor is an overuse of the backhaul facility connecting the LTE Base Stations (eNBs) to the Enhanced Packet Core Network (EPC). The facilities that run at 1 Gbps might not be available to all base stations. A moderate number of video users may use up so much bandwidth on the back haul that they cannot provide other services to the rest of the users. The way servers are deployed is another factor. These servers may be external to the wireless networks and located far away from the wireless user access points. “Long packet transit delays (latency), between the service program running on the server, and the user’s access point in the network can result in poor user experiences.

The US Government must take advantage of all the new devices that are being developed to run on wireless networks such as LTE. The Government is less likely to choose proprietary systems for its wireless communication needs. Due to the expense of acquiring new spectrum and the similarity of requirements between US Government users and general users, it is suggested that both groups of users use a standard LTE system. In this shared system it is important that the government be able, in an emergency, to prioritize access to authorized government users of the network or a portion of the network. This would exclude non-government use when the capacity of the network is exhausted. In wireless networks today, this behavior may not be possible to the extent required by the Government. Sensors of all kinds are increasingly used by government and commercial applications to collect information. There is no wireless network capable of storing, processing, and distributing sensor data quickly and efficiently. Ad hoc deployments of LTE wireless networks may also be the best option for emergency responders to receive wireless service during military operations or emergencies. Airborne base stations can be used to deploy an ad-hoc network above a disaster area or operation area. When an airborne ad-hoc network is deployed (or other deployments that involve mobile base stations), it’s important to keep the network running, even if the base station needs to be removed from service due low fuel, power or vehicle loss.

Communication latency is associated with traversing across a network to reach an application server by a mobile device (e.g. a cell-phone) using an access node. In some embodiments, the centralized server is called a “centralized optimization server?” The centralized server (the?centralized optimization server?) is placed in a central position amongst the access nodes and reduces the latency of applications running on the mobile device. By placing local optimization servers in the access nodes, it is possible to transfer application functionality from the central optimization server to local optimization server. This may be useful when multiple mobile devices access the same node and request the same data. This may reduce latency and increase bandwidth on the network by moving the service source from the central optimization server to the local one. The access node can be part of an LTE wireless network, 3G wireless network, WiFi wireless network, cable network or Ethernet network.

In embodiments, the method and system can include a localization server (a host computer) connected to a communications network that is able to associate with at most one wireless access point and provide services for a number of mobile devices communicating with this access point in a covered area. The connectivity between the network and localization server allows a data packet flow to occur either (a), between the access point and communication network (b), or (c), between the access points and localization server. In embodiments, at least one wireless access node can be one of a plurality of wireless access nodes. The centralized server can be connected to a packet data gateway (PGW), which is part of an LTE wireless system.

In embodiments, the central optimization server can run an application that provides services and transfers the functionality of the app to the local server. The application can provide services to a plurality mobile devices through direct connections between the application, each mobile device, or a publish/subscribe broker service. The centralized server optimization may include a publish subscribe broker service. For example, a publish subscribe network can connect the publish subscribe broker service from the centralized server optimization with the publish subscription broker service from the local server optimization. The transfer of application functionality can be based on the usage characteristics of the plurality mobile devices. The wireless control facility can be configured to manage during a handover of a mobile from a first wireless RF node to a secondary wireless RF node at least one of: (i) transferring the functionality of an application from the central optimization server to a local optimization node associated with the second wireless RF node; (ii), transferring the functionality of an application from the local node associated with the first wireless access node back to the central optimization node; and (iii), deciding not to transfer The plurality may include at least one first and two second mobiles, wherein the local optimization server can be configured to send a packet stream to both devices on behalf of an application, so that the first mobile and the second receive at least part of the stream of data. The plurality may include at least one first and two second mobile devices. In this case, the local optimization server can route a packet to both the first and second devices on behalf of an application. The application may be processed by a conferencing service, which includes collection, processing and storing of sensor data, as well as distribution. The plurality may include at least one first mobile device and at least two second mobile phones, with the localization server communicatively connecting the first mobile phone and the second mobile phone, the localization server including a publish subscribe broker communications service to which both first and secondary mobile phones are connected and the publish subscribe broker communications service able to route packet streams, on behalf an application that publishes streamed application data, to the mobile devices so that the first mobile and the second mobile receive at least the same portion of the stream of application The plurality may include at least one first and two second mobile devices. In this case, the local optimizer server is communicatively linked to both devices. It also includes a publish subscribe broker communication facility, to which the mobile transceiver device is connected. The local optimization servers may run applications for providing the services without having to transfer them from the central optimization server.

In embodiments, the wireless control facility may be adapted to manage a mobile device handover of the mobile device from the at least one wireless RF access node to a second wireless RF access node, so as to migrate the service access point from a local optimization server associated with the at least one wireless RF access node to a local optimization server associated with the second wireless RF access node. The coverage areas of the first and second wireless RF access nodes may overlap, where no break in service continuity occurs during handover of a mobile device transitioning from the first to the second wireless RF access node. The first and second wireless RF access nodes may be in different communication networks where each wireless access node is in a wireless communication network that is selected from the group including an LTE communication network, a 3G communication network, a WiFi communication network, and any wireless communication network that deploys nodes providing local user access and a centralized point of packet routing or processing. The coverage areas of the first and second wireless RF access nodes may not overlap, where service packet delivery to a mobile device transitioning from the first to the second wireless RF access node is at least temporarily broken, and where the wireless control facility manages the re-connection of the mobile device to a local optimization server associated with a second wireless RF access node once the mobile device accesses the second wireless RF access node, and wherein the previously accessed service is continued, and wherein service packets that may have been transmitted during the break in service continuity are then delivered to the mobile device.

In embodiments, the Wireless Control Facility may be adapted for managing a mobile device’s handover between a wireless access node (RF) and a wired node (wired access), so as to migrate the access point service between a local server optimization associated with the wired node. The service continuity of the mobile device should not be interrupted during the handover between the wireless access node, and the wired node. “The wireless RF node can be part of a wireless network selected from a group that includes an LTE communication, a 3G communications network, WiFi communication networks, or any wireless network that deploys a node providing local access to users and a central point of packet processing or routing. The wired node is part of a wired network selected from a group that includes a cable network or Ethernet network or any wired network that deploys a node providing local access to users and a central

The system and method include: (a) A local optimization service connected to a network of communication and adapted for association to at least a single wireless access point, and

The system further comprises (b) a centralized optimization server associated with the communication networks and adapted to (i) provide the application services to the plurality of wireless devices, and (ii), transfer the provision of the application services to the local optimized server of the at the least one Wireless RF Access Node. The system also comprises (b), a centralized server that is associated with the network, and adapted to: (i) provide application services to a plurality mobile devices; (ii), transfer the provisioning of application services to a local optimization server for the at-least one wireless RF node. (c) a communication facility connected to the centralized server, a plurality wireless RF nodes, including the at-least one wireless RF node. Transferring the application services allows data packets between the plurality mobile devices and local optimization server to be transmitted without having to traverse the communication network.

In embodiments, a centralized optimization service may be associated with an LTE packet data network gateway. On the packet data network of the PGW the centralized server runs an app to provide application services, transfers functionality to the local optimization servers, and provides low latency to the plurality mobile devices when interacting with the transferred functionality. In embodiments, an application can provide application services to one or more of the multiple mobile devices through a direct link between the application’s server and that device.

In embodiments, the application may be adapted to provide the application services to the plurality mobile devices through a publish-subscribe broker communications facility. The wireless control facility can then manage, during a mobile device handover of a mobile device from the at least one wireless RF access node to a second wireless RF access node, (i) the application’s functionality transfer from the centralized optimization server to the local optimization server associated with the second wireless RF access node, (ii) the application’s In embodiments, an application can be configured to deliver application services to multiple mobile devices via a publish/subscribe broker communication facility. The wireless control facility is then able to manage (i) a transfer of functionality of the mobile device’s application from the central optimization server to a local optimization service associated with a second wireless access node or (ii), a transfer of functionality of the mobile device’s application from the local server associated with at least one access node back to the central optimization server.

In embodiments, a plurality of mobile devices can include at least one first mobile device and at least one second mobile device. The local optimization server is adapted to send an application data stream to both first and second mobile devices on behalf of the app, so that the first mobile devices and second mobile phones receive at least the same portion of a streaming application data. In embodiments, the server can be configured to send an application data stream to both the first and second mobile devices. The streaming application data will then be transmitted from the second device to the first device at a time different than that of the first device.

The system may include a conferencing facility, which, together with the application, collects and processes sensor data. It could also include a publish subscribe broker communications facility, to which both the mobile devices connected to it are connected. This publish subscribe broker facility can route an application packet stream on behalf of a published streaming application to the mobile devices.

In embodiments, a centralized optimization service may have a publish/subscribe communications facility. A publish/subscribe network then connects this publish/subscribe communications facility with the publish/subscribe communications facility on the local optimization system to form a publisher/subscribe network. In embodiments for a wireless system that uses bearers as a means to transmit user data, a redirected-bearer is used in order to allow at least one mobile device to connect to the publish subscribe communications facility of the server local optimization. So, the bandwidth used to deliver application service data over the Internet or the wireless and wired access networks is minimized. In some embodiments, usage information is collected and reported via the publish-subscribe brokerage communications facility that at least one mobile device is connected to using a redirected carrier. In embodiments, a local optimization server can run an application to provide the application services. At least one mobile device may receive application service data by not using the communications network connecting the at least RF access node with an external data network.

In embodiments, application services can be provided by at least (i) direct connection between the application and one of a plurality mobile devices served by the local optimizer server of the wireless RF node. (ii), a publish subscribe broker communication facility connected to the mobile device, with direct connectivity to the application. (iii), communications through a distributed network of publish subscribe broker communications facilities where the application is directly linked to a different publish subscribe broker communications center than the publish subcribe broker communications centre to which at least In embodiments, a wireless control facility can be configured to manage the handover of a mobile phone from an at least one access node wireless to another wireless access node wireless, in order to migrate the service point from a local optimization system associated with the first wireless access node wireless to the second wireless access node wireless.

In embodiments, coverage areas of first and second wireless access nodes can overlap. No interruption in service continuity occurs during the handover of mobile devices transitioning from the initial to the second wireless access node. In embodiments, first and second wireless RF network access nodes can be in different wireless networks. Each wireless RF network access node may also be in a network selected from an LTE network, 3G network, WiFi network or a network with nodes that provide local user access or a central point for packet routing and processing.

The wireless control facility can manage the reconnection of a mobile phone to a local server associated with a wireless RF node when the mobile phone accesses the node. This allows the previously accessed services to continue.

In embodiments, a wireless control facility can be configured to manage the handover of mobile devices between a wireless access node (RF) and an access network node (non-wireless), so that the service access point is migrated between the local optimization servers associated with both the wireless access node (RF) and the access network node associated with the non-wireless. In embodiments, service continuity may not be interrupted during the handover of mobile devices transitioning from the wireless RF network to the access node on the non-wireless networks. In some embodiments, the wireless access node can be part of a network such as an LTE network, 3G network, WiFi network or a network with nodes that provide local access to users and central packet processing. The access node in the non-wireless is part of a network wired by a cable, Ethernet or a network wired that provides local access for users and a central point of packet processing.

In embodiments, an RF wireless node can be deployed in a network selected from a group that includes a LTE wireless system, a 3G network, a WiFi network, or a network with nodes that provide local user access, as well as a central point for packet routing and processing. In some embodiments, transfer of application services can be based on the usage characteristics of the plurality mobile devices. The usage characteristic may be a threshold value of how many mobile devices are requesting the same application services within the coverage area.
