Information Selection in a Wireless Communication System
First Claim
1. A method of information selection in a wireless communication system performed on a propagator node, comprising:
- receiving an information datagram from an information distribution gateway (IDG) node in response to a first selection request signal, wherein said IDG node received said information datagram from an information repository, and wherein said information datagram comprises an information tag;
storing said information datagram in an information cache;
receiving a second selection request signal via an access point, wherein said selection request signal identifies information requested by a selector node;
determining all or a portion of said second selection request signal matches all or a portion of said information tag stored in said information cache; and
forwarding said information datagram to said selector node as a result of the match, wherein said information datagram contains all or a portion of said information.

Abstract
Methods, devices, and systems for information selection in a wireless communication system are provided. In one embodiment, a method of information selection in a wireless communication system comprises receiving a selection request signal by a propagator node, wherein the selection request signal identifies information requested by a selector node; determining all or a portion of the selection request signal matches all or a portion of an information tag stored in an information cache of the propagator node, wherein the information tag is associated with an information datagram; and forwarding the information datagram from the propagator node to the selector node, wherein the information datagram contains all or a portion of the information.

11. A method of information selection in a wireless communication system, comprising:
-
receiving an information datagram by a propagator node from an information distribution gateway (IDG) node coupled to the Internet, wherein said information datagram includes an information tag; determining all or a portion of said information tag matches all or a portion of a selection tag stored in a selection routing table of said propagator node, wherein said selection tag is associated with a selector node; and forwarding said information datagram from said propagator node to said selector node via an access node. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13)

14. A device acting as a propagator node for information selection in a wireless communication system, comprising:
-
a first neighbor interface module configured to receive an information datagram from an information distribution gateway (IDG) node in response to a first selection request signal, wherein said IDG node received said information datagram from an information repository, and wherein said information datagram comprises an information tag; a second neighbor interface module configured to receive a second selection request signal from a selector node via an access point, wherein said second selection request signal identifies information requested by a selector node; a memory configured to store an information cache comprising said information datagram; and a controller coupled to said second neighbor interface module and coupled to the memory, wherein said controller is configured to; determine all or a portion of said second selection request signal matches all or a portion of said information tag stored in said information cache; and forward said information datagram from said propagator node to said selector node as a result of the match, wherein said information datagram contains all or a portion of said information. - View Dependent Claims (15)
