Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Method and network entities for providing good performance for voice in multiRAB connection for services of a CS+PS call setup ( 31 ) without high throughput necessity but providing good throughput for the services needing it. A differentiation of the multiRAB configuration (bearer type, mobility parameters and channel switching timers), based on service detection, is performed either in the RAN either in the CN indicating eventually this detection to the RAN. If the detected service needs high bit rate/throughput ( 35 ), the RNC reconfigures the multiRAB configuration ( 37 ) so that a bearer type providing high throughput is allocated to said service and the RNC reassigns mobility and channel switching parameters to maximise this throughput and the radio resources. If the service does not require high throughput ( 34 ), the RNC configures a bearer type and parameters for mobility and channel switching as specified by the standards to provide good performance ( 36 ), low dropped call rate.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for configuring radio access bearers in mobile networks, comprising: setting up an initial multiple radio access bearer configuration for a CS+PS call traffic, the CS+PS call being setup for simultaneous circuit switched and packet switched services; detecting in CS+PS call traffic at least one PS service and checking whether the detected PS service requires a data bit rate greater than a non-zero threshold, defining a high data bit rate; an…
