System and method for service session management in an IP centric distributed network
First Claim
1. A method for a first user to communicate in an Internet Protocol (IP) centric distributed network with a plurality of service layers providing a plurality of functions associated with each of the service layers, the method comprising:
- accessing the network to establish a point of presence through an access interface layer at an access management layer and a core portion of the network and to designate a default amount of bandwidth and a plurality of default setup parameters, wherein the access management layer is access technology independent and the access interface layer is access technology specific;
invocating service through an allied application server on the network to establish an amount of network resources requested by the first user, wherein the allied application server manages any changes requested by the first user to the quality of service parameters and bandwidth amount through the core network; and
establishing a transport session to create and manage a connection from the first user to a destination address.

Abstract
Provided are a system and method for service session management in an IP centric network. In one example, the method includes accessing a network to establish a point of presence through an access interface layer at an access management layer and a core portion of the network and designating a default amount of bandwidth and a plurality of default setup parameters. Service is invoked through an allied application server on the network to establish an amount of network resources requested by a user. The allied application server manages any changes requested by the user to the quality of service parameters and bandwidth amount through the core network. A transport session is established to create and manage a connection from the user to a destination address.

44. A communications network architecture for an Internet Protocol centric wireless network for a first user to communicate with a destination, the architecture comprising:
-
a radio access network including;
an access interface layer configured for communication with a mobile device associated with the first user and an access management layer coupled to the access interface layer and configured to manage communications between the access interface layer and a core network, wherein the access management layer is access technology independent and the access interface layer is access technology specific;
a core network connected to the access management layer, the core network configured to control network resources associated with the mobile device and maintain user and network information associated with the mobile device;
an allied application service platform that forms an intranet network connected to the core network, the allied application service platform configured to access the user and network information maintained by the core network to provide application specific services to an application located on the mobile device, wherein the services are customized for the user by the allied application service platform based on the user and network information; and
an application service platform within the Internet independent from the core network and connected to the access management layer, the application service platform configured to provide application specific services to an application located on the mobile device without having access to the user and network information maintained by the core network. - View Dependent Claims (45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72)
