METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DELIVERY OF DATA-BASED/VOICE SERVICES OVER PICONETS AND WIRELESS LANS (WLANS) COUPLED TO 3GPP DEVICES INCLUDING PROTOCOL ARCHITECTURE AND INFORMATION ELEMENTS RELATING TO SHORT MESSAGE SERVICE (SMS) OVER WLANS
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DELIVERY OF DATA-BASED/VOICE SERVICES OVER PICONETS AND WIRELESS LANS (WLANS) COUPLED TO 3GPP DEVICES INCLUDING PROTOCOL ARCHITECTURE AND INFORMATION ELEMENTS RELATING TO SHORT MESSAGE SERVICE (SMS) OVER WLANS
Method and apparatus for delivering voice/data services within a piconetoperating over a limited range or over a WLAN (1803) communicating with3GPP devices by reformatting data into IP format before delivering to theWLAN (1803). The service is Short Message Service (SMS) (102). Upon receipt ofthe SMS message, relevant routing information is retrieved. A PDGW (1805)address for the SMS message is identified and sent to the PDGW address whichidentifies the WLAN user equipment (UE) (1801) for receiving the SMS andreformats the SMS message into IP format for delivery to the UE. A protocolarchitecture is provided for SMS delivery over WLANs, in particular, forUMTS/CDMA based SMS over WLAN (1803) through two alternativemechanisms: SMS tunneling and SMS proxy, for protocols for the delivery ofSMS across the WLAN (1803).
