System and related methods to facilitate delivery of enhanced data services in a mobile wireless communications environment
First Claim
1. A data networking protocol comprising:
- one or more control commands employed by a respective network element to establish and manage wireless communication sessions of a wireless subscriber unit in a data network; and
one or more mobility management attribute-value pair(s)(AVP) employed by the network element to define one or more parameters of an accompanying one or more of the control commands, to facilitate exchange of mobility information in the data network, and to facilitate secure mobility of wireless communication sessions including,a first AVP indicating whether a call is a new call or a handover and to be provided when initiating a session,a second AVP indicating a cookie-based session identifier and to be provided when the session is initiated, anda third AVP indicating a security module-generated session identifier and to be provided with the cookie-based session identifier.

Abstract
A system and related methods to facilitate the delivery of enhanced data services in a mobile wireless communications environment is generally described. According to one aspect of the invention, a data networking protocol is introduced generally comprising control commands and attribute-value pairs. The one or more control commands including one or more control commands selectively employed to establish, manage and tear-down a communication session by and between elements of a data network. The one or more attribute-value pair(s) (AVP), selectively employed by a network element to define one or more parameters of an accompanying control command, the AVPs including one or more mobility management AVPs to facilitate exchange of mobility information between at least a subset of the network elements of the data network participating in a point-to-point component of the communication session.

1. A data networking protocol comprising:
-
one or more control commands employed by a respective network element to establish and manage wireless communication sessions of a wireless subscriber unit in a data network; and one or more mobility management attribute-value pair(s)(AVP) employed by the network element to define one or more parameters of an accompanying one or more of the control commands, to facilitate exchange of mobility information in the data network, and to facilitate secure mobility of wireless communication sessions including, a first AVP indicating whether a call is a new call or a handover and to be provided when initiating a session, a second AVP indicating a cookie-based session identifier and to be provided when the session is initiated, and a third AVP indicating a security module-generated session identifier and to be provided with the cookie-based session identifier. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A wireless end-user terminal, comprising:
-
a transceiver to receive data transmissions for simultaneous wireless communication sessions; a wireless modem coupled with the transceiver, the modem having a communications agent that employs one or more control commands to establish and manage wireless communication sessions, the agent also to employ one or more mobility management attribute-value pair(s)(AVP) to define one or more parameters of an accompanying one or more of the control commands, to facilitate exchange of mobility information in a data network, and to facilitate secure inability of the wireless communication sessions including, a first AVP indicating whether a call is a new call or a handover and to be provided when initiating a session. a second AVP indicating a cookie-based session identifier and to be provided when the session is initiated, and a third AVP indicating a security module-generated session identifier and to be provided with the cookie-based session identifier. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)

17. A method comprising:
-
sending a control command from a network element to initiate a wireless communication session of a wireless subscriber unit in a data network, the control command including a first mobility management attribute-value pair(s) (AVP) to facilitate exchange of mobility information in the data network indicating whether a call is a new call or a handover; receiving a control command from a network element to initiate the wireless communication session, the control command including a second AVP indicating a cookie-based session identifier and a third AVP indicating a security module-generated session identifier to facilitate secure mobility of wireless communication sessions. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)

27. An apparatus comprising a processor and a storage medium having stored thereon instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor, to perform operations comprising:
-
sending a control command from a network element to initiate a wireless communication session of a wireless subscriber unit in a data network, the control command including a first mobility management attribute-value pair(s) (AVP) to facilitate exchange of mobility information in the data network indicating whether a call is a new call or a handover; receiving a control command from a network element to initiate the wireless communication session, the control command including a second AVP indicating a cookie-based session identifier and a third AVP indicating a security module-generated session identifier to facilitate secure mobility of wireless communication sessions.
