Pico-cell extension for cellular network
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a system comprising a processor, first call data from a first user equipment via a first picocell device of a wireless picocell extension network by employing an unlicensed mobile access protocol, wherein the receiving comprises receiving the first call data via an unlicensed mobile access protocol internet protocol security tunnel;
determining, by the system, aggregated call data based on combining the first call data with second call data received from a second user equipment via a second picocell device of the wireless picocell extension network; and
facilitating, by the system, a transmission of the aggregated call data to a network device of a cellular network.

Abstract
A pico-cell is located within a facility. The pico-cell has a wireless protocol for carrying calls placed to and from mobile devices in the facility. A call distributor is in communication with the pico-cell and handles calls carried by the pico-cell. The call distributor includes an embedded wireless switch for routing calls to and from mobile devices in the facility using the wireless protocol.

9. A system, comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising; receiving, over an unlicensed mobile access protocol internet protocol security tunnel, first call data from a first communication device that is authorized to access a first picocell device of a wireless picocell extension network, wherein the first call data is received by employing an unlicensed mobile access protocol; determining combined data based on combining the first call data with second call data received from a second communication device coupled to a second picocell device of the wireless picocell extension network; and facilitating a transfer of the combined data to a switch device of a cellular network. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A machine-readable storage medium comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
-
receiving, via an unlicensed mobile access protocol internet protocol security tunnel, first call data from a first communication device that is authorized to access a first picocell device of a wireless picocell extension network, wherein the first call data is received via an unlicensed mobile access protocol; receiving, via the unlicensed mobile access protocol internet protocol security tunnel, second call data from a second communication device that is authorized to access a second picocell device of the wireless picocell extension network, wherein the second call data is received via the unlicensed mobile access protocol; and aggregating the first call data with the second call data to generate aggregated data that is to be transferred to network device of a cellular network. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
