System and method for releasing quality of service resources in mobile communication network

A system for releasing quality of service (QoS) resources in a mobile communication network, comprising:

• a Packet Data Serving Node (PDSN) to allocate QoS resources to a mobile terminal after setting a first session connection to the mobile terminal through a first network;
• and
• the mobile terminal to request a second session connection to the PDSN through a second network, and to transmit QoS resource release information to the PDSN via the second network to request release of the allocated QoS resources,
• wherein, when the PDSN receives the QoS resource release information from the mobile terminal while performing the second session connection through the second network, the PDSN releases the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal through the first network,
• wherein the QoS resource release information comprises 5-tuple (transmission address, reception address, transmission port, reception port, and next header information).

A system for releasing quality of service (QoS) resources in a mobile communication network, comprising:

• a Packet Data Serving Node (PDSN) to allocate QoS resources to a mobile terminal after setting a session connection to the mobile terminal through a first network;
• and
• an access network (AN) in the first network to check whether the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal are used, and if the QoS resources are not used for a first predetermined time, to request a connection release to the mobile terminal, to determine that the mobile terminal has moved from the first network if a response is not received in a second predetermined time, and to transmit QoS resource release information to the PDSN to request release of the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal,
• wherein, if the PDSN receives the QoS resource release information from the AN, the PDSN releases the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal through the first network.

A method for releasing quality of service (QoS) resources in a mobile communication network, comprising:

• receiving a request for a session connection at a Packet Data Serving Node (PDSN) through a first network for data services, setting the session connection to a mobile terminal, and allocating QoS resources to the mobile terminal from the PDSN;
• receiving a text message at a text message server to request release of the allocated QoS resources, the text message sent by the mobile terminal through a second network if the mobile terminal escapes from the first network;
• at the text message server, extracting QoS resource release information from the text message, and transmitting the extracted QoS resource release information to the PDSN;
• and
• at the PDSN, releasing the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal through the first network,
• wherein the QoS resource release information comprises 5-tuple (transmission address, reception address, transmission port, reception port, and next header information).

A method for releasing quality of service (QoS) resources in a mobile communication network, comprising:

• connecting to a first network, requesting a first session connection to a Packet Data Serving Node (PDSN) through the first network to receive data services, and receiving QoS resources allocated to a mobile terminal from the PDSN through the first network;
• if the mobile terminal escapes from the first network, requesting a second session connection to the PDSN through a second network to receive the data services through the second network;
• and
• providing QoS resource release information for requesting release of the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal in a session negotiation message and transmitting the session negotiation message to the PDSN through the second network,
• wherein the PDSN releases the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal upon receiving the QoS resource release information,
• wherein the QoS resource release information comprises 5-tuple (transmission address, reception address, transmission port, reception port, and next header information).

A method for releasing quality of service (QoS) resources in a mobile communication network, comprising:

• receiving a session connection request at a Packet Data Serving Node (PDSN) from a mobile terminal through a first network;
• allocating QoS resources to the mobile terminal by the PDSN;
• checking whether the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal are used;
• if the QoS resources are not used for a first predetermined time, requesting a connection release to the mobile terminal;
• if a response to the connection release request is not received from the mobile terminal within a second predetermined time, determining that the mobile terminal has escaped from the first network;
• requesting the PDSN to release the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal through the first network by an access network (AN) of the first network;
• and
• releasing the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal through the first network.

A method for releasing quality of service (QoS) resources by a mobile terminal, comprising:

• requesting a session connection to a Packet Data Serving Node (PDSN) through a first network;
• receiving allocated QoS resources from the PDSN;
• and
• if the mobile terminal escapes from the first network and connects to a second network, transmitting a text message for requesting a release of the allocated QoS resources to a text message server through the second network, the text message comprising QoS resource release information,
• wherein the PDSN releases the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal through the first network upon receiving the QoS resource release information included in the text message,
• wherein the QoS resource release information comprises 5-tuple (transmission address, reception address, transmission port, reception port, and next header information).

A method for releasing quality of service (QoS) resources in a mobile communication network, comprising:

• receiving a request for a first session connection to a Packet Data Serving Node (PDSN) from a mobile terminal through a first network;
• allocating QoS resources to the mobile terminal by the PDSN;
• receiving a request for a second session connection to a Packet Data Serving Node (PDSN) and a session negotiation message comprising QoS resource release information for requesting release of the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal, the request for the second session connection and the session negotiation message received by the PDSN through a second network;
• and
• releasing the QoS resources allocated to the mobile terminal upon receiving the QoS resource release information while performing the second session connection to the mobile terminal,
• wherein the QoS resource release information comprises 5-tuple (transmission address, reception address, transmission port, reception port, and next header information).
