TDD-RLAN wireless telecommunication system with RAN IP gateway and methods
First Claim
1. A telecommunication network having a group of at least one radio network that includes a Radio Local Area Network (RLAN) for providing concurrent wireless telecommunication services for a plurality of user equipments (UEs) and an associated core network (CN) for supporting Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) functions of UEs for which the telecommunication network is a Home Network comprising:
- a RLAN including;
at least one base station having a transceiver for conducting time division duplex (TDD) code division multiple access (CDMA) wireless communications with UEs in a selected geographic region;
at least one controller coupled with a group of base stations which includes at least said at least one base station for controlling the communications of the group of base stations; and
a Radio Access Network Internet Protocol (RAN IP) Gateway coupled with a group of controllers which includes said at least one controller; and
said RAN IP Gateway having a Gateway General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) Support Node (GGSN) configured with a GI interface for connection with the Internet; and
being configured to communicate AAA function information to the CN.

Abstract
The present invention provides for a Time Division Duplex-Radio Local Area Network (TDD-RLAN) which includes a Radio Access Network Internet Protocol (RAN IP) gateway that enables connectivity to the public Internet. The system may serve as a stand-alone system or be incorporated into a UMTS used with conventional Core Network, particularly for tracking and implementing AAA functions in the Core Network.
