Femtocell bridging in media local area networks
First Claim
1. A femtocell device, comprising:
- a processor;
a memory;
a radio transceiver to communicate with a mobile communication device using a wireless cellular communication protocol and to communicate with the mobile communication device in a data session using one of evolution-data optimized (EV-DO), one times radio transmission technology (1x-RTT), high-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA), worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX), long-term evolution (LTE);
an application stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor, receives simple service discovery protocol messages from a media local area network identifying content stored in the media local area network and provides information about the content to the mobile communication device; and
a transcoder to transform the content stored in the media local area network from a first format to a second format, wherein the mobile communication device is able to play back the content in the second format.

Abstract
A femtocell is provided. The femtocell comprises a processor, a memory, and a radio transceiver to communicate with a mobile communication device using a wireless cellular communication protocol and to communicate with the mobile communication device in a data session using one of evolution-data optimized (EV-DO), one times radio transmission technology (1x-RTT), high-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA), worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX), long-term evolution (LTE). The femtocell also comprises an application stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor, receives simple service discovery protocol messages from a media local area network identifying content stored in the media local area network and provides information about the content to the mobile communication device.

9. A femtocell device, comprising:
-
a processor; a memory; a radio transceiver to communicate with a mobile communication device using a wireless cellular communication protocol and to communicate with the mobile communication device in a data session using one of evolution-data optimized (EV-DO), one times radio transmission technology (1x-RTT), high-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA), worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX), long-term evolution (LTE); and an application stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor, receives a message from the mobile communication device identifying content stored in the mobile communication device, stores an entry in the memory identifying the content and a reference for accessing the content, and multicasts a message identifying the content to a media local area network, wherein the content passes from the mobile communication device to the femtocell device by the femtocell device pulling selected content from the mobile communication device at the election of the femtocell device. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
