System and method of message delivery in a wireless communication network
First Claim
1. A method in a router system for data message delivery from a host service to a wireless mobile device operative in a wireless communication network, the method comprising the steps of:
- maintaining, in the router system, a status for said wireless mobile device of at least one of available and unavailable;
receiving, at said router system from said host service, a user data message that is addressed to an address of said wireless mobile device, said user data message comprising a user data payload and one or more request parameters, said one or more request parameters instructing said router system on whether to return at least a portion of said user data message to said host service when said device status is unavailable;
in response to said user data message being received at said router system when said device status is available;
delivering, from said router system, said user data message to said wireless mobile device via said wireless communication network;
in response to said user data message being received at said router system when said device status is unavailable;
not delivering said user data message from said router system to said wireless mobile device; and
sending, from said router system, said at least user data message portion to said host service.

Abstract
A router system maintains a status of a wireless device of either available or unavailable. The status of available may be indicative of the wireless device being in-coverage with a wireless network, whereas the status of unavailable may be indicative of the wireless device being out-of-coverage with the wireless network. The router system is adapted to receive, from a host service, a user data message that is addressed to an address of the wireless device. The user data message has a user data payload and one or more request parameters, where the one or more request parameters instruct the router system on whether to return at least a portion of the user data message to the host service when the device status is unavailable. In response to the user data message being received at the router system when the device status is available, the router system delivers the user data message to the wireless device via the wireless network. In response to the user data message being received at the router system when the device status is unavailable, the router system fails to delivery the user data message to the wireless device but sends the at least user data message portion to the host service.
