Device Triggered Channel Selection
First Claim
1. A telecommunication device comprising:
- a radio transceiver;
one or more processors; and
a memory coupled to the one or more processors and storing a plurality of applications and a network interface module,wherein the network interface module is executed by the one or more processors to;
detect an action at a network-driven application of the plurality of applications;
determine whether the action initiates a data transfer request that corresponds to an application-specific rule that is related to a data-type sensitivity level of the network-driven application; and
identify a designated connected mode communication channel for a data transfer of the network-driven application to a network device in response to determining that the data transfer request corresponds to the application-specific rule.

Abstract
A telecommunication device having a network interface module that is operable to detect an action at a network-driven application of the telecommunication device, which uses broadband Internet access to carry out its primary application functions. The network interface module then determines whether the detected action initiates a data transfer request corresponding to an application-specific rule identifying a timing sensitivity of the network-driven application. Then, based on this determination, the network interface module identifies and triggers a transition to a designated radio resource control (RRC) connected mode channel for a data transfer of the network-driven application to another network device, to improve a user'"'"'s quality of experience (QoE) by reducing latency associated with the data transfer.

8. A method comprising:
-
detecting an action at an application of a telecommunication device; determining whether the action corresponds to a request for data associated with the application; comparing the data request to at least one application-specific rule of the application to determine if a corresponding rule exists for the data request; and identifying a communication channel for transferring data of the data request from the telecommunication device to another network device, upon determining the corresponding rule to exist for the data request. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A computer storage device with a stored computer-executable program, which when executed by one or more processors, performs acts, comprising:
-
detecting a data request at a network-driven application of a telecommunication device; identifying a designated communication channel for a data transfer of the data request to a network device; adding supplemental data to the data request to affect a channel state transition to the designated communication channel, wherein the supplemental data includes dummy data or buffered data; and transferring data associated with the network-driven application to the network device using the designated communication channel. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A method comprising:
-
determining a designated transport channel allocated to a user device; transmitting, at the user device, supplemental data to a network service provider; detecting, at the user device, a transport channel state transition that occurs in response to the network service provider receiving a specific quantity of the supplemental data; determining, at the user device, the specific quantity of supplemental data causing the transport channel state transition; and setting, at the user device, a transport channel state transition threshold, based on the specific quantity of supplemental data causing the transport channel state transition. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24)
