Abstract
A system may deliver a push message to user equipment. The system may include a push notification server and a mobile communication core network. The push notification server may be configured to create and transmit a push message when a certain data is updated. The mobile communication core network may be configured to receive the push message from the push notification server, determine whether a user equipment associated with the push message is connected to a wireless local area network (WLAN) access network, and transmit the push message to the user equipment through at least one of a mobile communication radio access network and the WLAN access network based on the determination.
Claims20
A system for delivering a push message to user equipment, the system comprising:
- a push notification server configured to create and transmit a push message when certain data is updated;
- and
- a mobile communication core network configured to, in response to the push message, i) determine whether the user equipment associated with the push message is connected to a wireless local area network (WLAN) access network, and ii) transmit the push message to the user equipment through at least one of a mobile communication radio access network and the WLAN access network based on the determination.
User equipment for receiving a push message, the user equipment comprising:
- a wireless local area network (WLAN) interface unit configured to couple the user equipment with a WLAN access network and transfer data through the WLAN access network;
- a mobile communication network interface unit configured to couple the user equipment with a mobile communication radio access network and transfer data through the mobile communication radio access network;
- and
- a receiver configured to receive a push message from a push notification server through at least one of the WLAN interface unit and the mobile communication interface, the push message being created and transmitted by the push notification server when certain data is updated,
- wherein the receiver receives the push message through the WLAN interface unit when the user equipment is connected to the WLAN access network.
A method for delivering a push message to user equipment, the method comprising:
- in response to a push message, determining whether the user equipment is connected with a wireless local area network (WLAN) access network, the push message being created and transmitted by a push notification server when certain data is updated;
- transmitting the push message to the user equipment through the WLAN access network when the user equipment is connected with the WLAN access network;
- and
- transmitting the push message to the user equipment through a mobile communication radio access network when the user equipment is not connected with the WLAN access network.
