Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In a telecommunications system ( 20 ) a transport network ( 26 ) for connecting a wireless access network ( 22 ) to a backbone network ( 24 ), an example embodiment of an overlay mobile network ( 40 ) comprises a point-to-multipoint tunnel having tunnel segments formed in a tree topology and being configured to direct traffic to a mobile node ( 30 ). The overlay mobile network ( 40 ) further comprises mobility aware routers ( 44 ) of the transport network ( 40 ), the mobility aware routers ( 44 ) serving as nodes of the tree topology of the tunnel and being configured to perform mobility functions such as mobility routing and layer 3 (L3) address assignment. These mobility functions interact in a mobility control and management plane.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method of operating a telecommunications system comprising a transport network arranged between a wireless access network and a backbone network, the method comprises: providing an overlay mobile network through the transport network, the overlay mobile network comprising a point-to-multipoint tunnel having tunnel segments formed in a tree topology, the point-to multipoint tunnel connecting mobility aware routers, the mobility aware routers being loc…
