Method and system for subscriber-configurable communications service
First Claim
1. A method of providing configurable data services for mobile stations, the method comprising the steps of:
- selecting an active profile from a plurality of stored profiles associated with a corresponding mobile station, the active profile being selected in accordance with a triggering event;
receiving a data message at a wireless data server, the data message addressed to at least one of the wireless data server and the mobile station;
accessing the active profile for the mobile station to which the received data message is addressed to determine applicable stored profile attributes associated with the active profile;
detecting received profile attributes associated with the received data message;
filtering the received data message based on a comparison between the detected profile attributes and the stored profile attributes.

Abstract
A method and system for providing configurable data services for mobile stations allows mobile stations to select the type and content of data messages addressed to a mobile station. The method includes establishing an active profile associated with a corresponding mobile station. A wireless data server receives a data message addressed to the mobile station. The active profile for the mobile station is accessed to determine applicable stored profile attributes for the mobile station to which the received data message is addressed. The wireless data server detects received profile attributes associated with the received data message. Filtering is applied to the received data message in real-time based on a comparison between the detected profile attributes and the stored profile attributes. The detected profile attributes are readily standardized in accordance with standards followed by the content service provider in order to gain access to the mobile service subscribers.

13. A method of providing configurable data services for mobile stations, the method comprising the steps of:
-
establishing an initial active profile associated with a corresponding mobile station;
changing from the initial active profile to a revised active profile with a different filtering rule if a triggering event occurs, the revised active profile being selected from a plurality of stored profiles associated with the corresponding mobile station;
receiving a data message at a wireless data server, the data message addressed to the mobile station;
accessing the revised active profile for the mobile station to which the received data message is addressed to determine applicable stored profile attributes associated with at least one of the initial active profile and the revised active profile;
detecting received profile attributes associated with the received data message;
filtering the received data message based on a comparison between the detected profile attributes and the stored profile attributes. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A system for providing configurable data services for mobile stations, the system comprising:
-
a profile generator/selector that selects an active profile from a plurality of stored profiles associated with a corresponding mobile station, the profiler storing the active profile in a database, the active profile being selected in accordance with at least one of a mobile location, a transmission rate and an air interface delay;
a receiver for receiving a data message at a wireless data server, the data message addressed to the mobile station;
a retriever for accessing the active profile in the database for the mobile station to which the received data message is addressed to determine applicable stored profile attributes associated with the active profile;
a detector for detecting received profile attributes associated with the received data message;
a filter for applying filtering to the received data message based on a comparison between the detected profile attributes and the stored profile attributes.
