MULTIPLE PACKET DATA SERVICE CONNECTIONS
Reference(s) to Related Application(s)
The present application claims priority from provisional application,
Serial No. 60/431,556, entitled "METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR
SUPPORTING MULTIPLE PACKET DATA SERVICE CONNECTIONS,"
filed December 6, 2002, which is commonly owned and incorporated
herein by reference in its entirety.
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for supporting
multiple packet data service connections and, in particular, to supporting multiple
packet data service connections.
Background of the Invention
IS-2000 requires a mobile requesting the setup of a packet d ata
application requiring multiple service instances to originate each of the
services instances sequentially. If a traffic channel has not been assigned
to a mobile, the mobile will first send an Origination Message (ORM) to
the base station (BS) followed by an Enhanced Origination Message
(EOM) for each of the additional service instances required to support the
application. If a traffic channel has already been assigned to a mobile,
the mobile sends an EOM for each of the additional service instances
required to support the application.

For reconnection of a packet data application that is dormant, IS-
2000 allows a mobile to request the reactivation of a single packet data
service instance by including the service reference identifier (i.e., the
SR_ID) for the service instance in the ORM/EOM, or the mobile may
request reactivation of all dormant service instances in the mobile by
setting the SR_ID field to "7" (per IS-2000-C). If the mobile requires the
reactivation of more than one, but not all dormant service instances in the
mobile, the mobile is required to send multiple ORM/EOM, one for each of
the dormant service instances required by the packet data application.
Moreover, when a handoff is required for dormant packet data
service instances, IS-2000 requires the mobile to send multiple
ORM/EOM to the BS to request a handoff for each of the dormant service
instances i n t he mobile. E ach m essage i ncludes an SR_ID and service
option field associated with a single service instance.
The use of multiple messages for these service requests wastes
valuable air interface resources and increases the overall delay to
complete the service requests. Thus, a need exists for an apparatus and
method to support multiple packet data service instances in a more
efficient manner.

Detailed Description of Embodiments
To address the need to support multiple packet data service
instances in a more efficient manner, various signaling enhancements are
provided. These enhancements will result in faster packet data call
setups, reactivations, and dormant handoffs of multiple service instances
while reducing over-the-air signalling. For originations of multiple packet
data service connections, the mobile requests the setup of up to six
service instances with a single origination message. For packet data
dormant handoffs, the mobile requests the handoff of up to six service
instances using a single message. And for reactivations, the mobile
requests the reconnection of multiple, dormant packet data service
instances with a single message.
The disclosed embodiments can be more fully understood with
reference to FIGs. 1-6. FIG. 1 is a block diagram depiction of a
communication system 100 in accordance with an embodiment of the
present invention. Communication system 100 is a well-known Code
Division Multiple Access (CDMA) system, specifically a cdma2000
system, which is based on the Telecommunications Industry Association /
Electronic Industries Association (TIA/EIA) standard IS-2000, suitably
modified to implement the present invention. The IS-2000 standard is
hereby incorporated by reference. (The TIA/EIA can be contacted at 2001
Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Washington, D.C. 20006). In various
embodiments, communication system 100 may utilize other cellular
communication system protocols such as, but not limited to, IS-856
(HRPD).
Communication system 100 includes radio access network (RAN)
entities, such as BS 111 (comprising one or more BTSs), PCF 120, PDSN
121, and MSC 130, and includes remote units, such as mobile station
(MS) 101. However, the present invention is not limited to remote units or

MSs that are mobile. For example, a remote unit may comprise a desktop
computer wirelessly connected to the radio access network.
Those skilled in the art will recognize that FIG. 1 does not depict all
of the network equipment necessary for system 100 to operate but only
those system blocks and logical entities particularly relevant to the
description of embodiments of the present invention. Those skilled in the
art are aware of the many ways each of these entities can be
implemented and/or purchased from wireless communications companies
such as "MOTOROLA."
MS 101 and BS 111 comprise well-known entities such as
processors 104 and 114, transmitters 102 and 112, and receivers 103 and
113. Processors, for example, typically comprise components such as
microprocessors, digital signal processors, memory, and/or logic circuitry
designed to implement algorithms that have been expressed as computer
instructions and/or in circuitry. Given an algorithm or a logic flow, those
skilled in the art are aware of the many design and development
techniques available to implement a processor that performs the given
logic.
Typically, transmitters and receivers are components of RAN base
stations (BSs), and typically BSs interface with other RAN devices such as
mobile switching centers (MSCs), packet control functions (PCFs), and
packet data serving nodes (PDSNs). As shown in FIG. 1, BS 111
interfaces to Internet 122 via PCF 120 and PDSN 121 and interfaces to
the public telephone system via MSC 130. In a first embodiment of the
present invention, a known CDMA 2000 BS is adapted using known
telecommunications design and development techniques to implement the
BS aspect of the present invention. The result is BS 111.
BS 111 and MS 101 communicate via CDMA 2000 air interface
resource 110. MS 101 comprises processor 104, receiver 103, and
transmitter 102. Transmitters, receivers, and processors as used in CDMA
MSs are all well known in the art. This common set of MS components is

adapted using known telecommunications design and development
techniques to implement the wireless unit aspect of the present invention.
Operation of a first embodiment, in accordance with a first
embodiment of the present invention, occurs substantially as follows. MS
processor 104 generates a message that requests a service request
operation, such as a connection origination, a connection reactivation (i.e.,
a reconnection), or a dormant handoff, for multiple packet data
connections between MS 101 and PDSN 121. These connections, or
service instances, are each individually identified using a service
reference identifier value (an SR_ID) in a message field or using a bit
value in a bitmap. Processor 104 then instructs transmitter 102 to transmit
the message to BS 111.
BS processor 114 receives the message via receiver 113 and
processes the message in order to facilitate the service request operation
indicated. Message flow diagrams 200 and 300, as shown in FIGs. 2 and
3 respectively, illustrate this messaging. In addition, message flow
diagrams 200 and 300 illustrate the related messaging and procedures
that occurs primarily between a n M S, a B S, a nd a P DSN, s uch a s M S
101, BS 111, and PDSN 121, to facilitate the service request operation
indicated.
Message flow 200 illustrates a single Origination message and a
single Reconnection message, which request connection
origination/reconnection for SR_IDs 1, 2, and 3. Prior art IS-2000
messaging would require three messages instead of either single
message. For the origination case, after receiving the Origination
message, the BS acknowledges it, and the BS and MS exchange the
required messaging to establish a traffic channel (TCH). The BS also
begins packet call setup procedures with the PDSN in order to establish
the packet data connections for service instances 1, 2, and 3 between the
MS and PDSN.

Message flow 300 illustrates a single Origination message that
requests dormant handoff for SR_IDs 1, 2, and 3. Prior art IS-2000
messaging would require six messages instead. After receiving the
Origination message, the BS begins dormant mode handoff procedures
with the PDSN and sends a release to the MS, if a traffic channel is not
required.
FIG. 4 is a block diagram depiction of an Origination message 400
in accordance with a first embodiment of the present invention. Each field
relevant to the first embodiment is shown in FIG. 4 with its associated bit-
length. Most fields shown have a bit length of "0 or" followed by a number.
This indicates, of course, that that field may not be included in the
message. The SERVICE_OPTION, DRS, SR_ID, SYNC_ID_LEN, and
SYNC_ID fields are all part of the present IS-2000 Origination message.
The remaining fields explicitly shown in message 400 are proposed for the
first embodiment of the present invention as described in detail below.
First, a more general description is in order. Service options refer to
specific packet data services, such as high speed data and voice over IP
(VoIP). Message 400 includes a message extension that includes a
record for each SR_ID indicated in the message extension. Each SR_ID
refers to a packet data, MS-PDSN connection. Some Origination
messages will include one or more service option indicators that indicate a
service option value to correspond to one or more of these packet data
connections.
As shown in FIG. 4, message 400 includes an SR_ID field, a
SERVICE_OPTION field, an ADD_SR_ID (additional SR_ID) field, and an
ADD_SERVICE_OPTION (additional service option) field. An
ADD_SR_ID_INCL field, a NUM_ADD_SR_ID field, and an
ADD_SERVICE_OPTION_INCL field are also shown. These fields
indicate whether a particular message includes one or more additional
SR_IDs, how many additional SR_IDs, and whether a particular message
includes one or more additional service options, respectively.

A detailed description of each field in the message extension of
message 400 follows:
ADD_SR_ID_INCL Additional service reference identifiers included
indicator.
If this messaging is supported (i.e., if
P_REV_IN_USES is less than eleven), or if the
DRS field is set to T and either the SYNC_ID
field is set to '0' or the SR_ID field is set to
'111', then the MS shall omit this field;
otherwise, the mobile station shall include this
field and set it as follows:
If the DRS field is set to '0' and the MS is
performing dormant handoff of a single packet
data service instance, or if the DRS field is set
to '1' and the mobile station requests
restoration of a single service option
connection from the stored service
configuration, then the MS shall set this field to
'0'; otherwise, the mobile station shall set this
field to'1'.
NUM_ADD_SR_ID Number of additional service reference
identifiers included.
If ADD_SR_ID_INCL is not included or is
included and set to '0', the mobile station shall
omit this field; otherwise, the mobile station
shall include this field and set it to one less
than the number of occurrences of the
ADD_SR_ID field included in this message.

If ADD_SR_ID_INCL is included and set to '1', then the mobile station
shall include NUM_ADD_SR_ID + 1 occurrences of the following variable-
field record:
ADD_SR_ID Additional service reference identifier.
If the DRS field is set to '0' and the MS is
performing dormant handoff of an additional
packet data service instance, or if the DRS
field is set to '1' and the mobile station
requests restoration of an additional service
option connection from the stored service
configuration, then the MS shall set this field to
the corresponding service reference identifier.
ADD_SERVICE_OPTION_INCL
Additional service option included indicator.
If the SYNC_ID field is set to '1', then the
mobile station shall omit this field; otherwise,
the mobile station shall include this field and
set it as follows:
The mobile station shall set this field to '0' if
the service option number of the service
corresponding to the ADD_SR_ID field of this
record is the same as SERVICE_OPTION;
otherwise, the mobile station shall set this field
to T.


ADD_SERVICE_OPTION Additional service option number.
If the ADD_SERVICE_OPTION_INCL field is
set to '0', the mobile station shall omit this field;
otherwise, the mobile station shall include this
field and set it to the service option number of
the service corresponding to the ADD_SR_ID
field of this record.
Origination message 400 is shown and described above in
accordance with the first embodiment of the present invention. Origination
message 600, as shown in FIG. 5, represents a second and alternative
embodiment of the present invention. Message 400 individually identified
the MS-PDSN connections using an SR_ID in individual message fields.
Instead, Origination message 600 individually identifies the MS-PDSN
connections using bit values in a bitmap, specifically, the SR_ID_BITMAP
field. A detailed description of the fields in message 600 relevant to the
second embodiment follows:
SPECIAL_SERVICE Special service option indicator.
To request a single special service option, the
mobile station shall set this field to '1'. To
request the default service option (Service
Option 1) or multiple service options, the
mobile station shall set this field to '0'.
SERVICE_OPTION Requested service option for this origination.
If the SPECIAL_SERVICE field is set to '1',
the mobile station shall set this field to the
value specified in [30], corresponding to the
requested service option.

If the SPECIAL_SERVICE field is set to '0' and
the SERVICE_OPTION_LIST field is not
included, the mobile station shall omit this field
to request the default service option. If the
SERVICE_OPTION_LIST field is included, the
mobile station shall omit this field.

SR_ID Service reference identifier.
If P_REV_IN_USES is less than six, the mobile
station shall omit this field; otherwise, the
mobile station shall include this field and set it
as follows:
If the SYNC_ID_INCL field is not included or is
included and is set to '0', the mobile station
shall set this field as follows:
If the service instance provides a
service reference identifier, the mobile
station shall set this field to the service
reference identifier specified by the
service instance. If the service instance
does not provide a service reference
identifier, the mobile station shall set
this field to the smallest unused service
reference identifier value between 1 and
6 (inclusive). If the SR_ID field is set to
'0', refer to the SR_ID_BITMAP field for
a list of service reference identifiers.
Otherwise, the mobile station shall set this field
as follows:

If the mobile station requests the
restoration of a single service option
connection from the stored service
configuration, the mobile station shall
set this field to the corresponding
service reference identifier; otherwise
(that is, the mobile station requests the
restoration of all the service option
connections from the stored service
configuration), the mobile station shall
set this field to '111'
SR_ID_BITMAP Service Reference Identifier Bitmap
If P_REV_IN_USES is less than nine (or
another appropriate revision), the mobile
station shall omit this field. If the SR_ID field is
not included, or is included but is not set to '0',
the mobile station shall omit this field;
otherwise, the mobile station shall include this
field and set it as follows.
This field contains a bitmap list of SR_IDs
requested for originating, reconnecting, or
dormant handoff of a packet data call. Bits 1-6
map to SR_IDs 1-6. At least two SR_IDs are
specified.

SR_ID_BITMAP

Value (binary) SR_ID Requested
xxxxxx1 SR_ID=1
xxxxx1x SR_ID=2
xxxx1xx SR_ID=3
xxx1xxx SR_ID=4
xx1xxxx SR_ID=5
x1xxxxx SR_ID=6
1xxxxxx SR_ID=7
SERVICE_OPTION_LIST Service Option List
If the SR_ID_BITMAP field is not included, the
mobile station shall omit this field; otherwise,
the mobile station shall include this field and
set it as follows.

This field contains the list of Service Options
associated with each SR_ID requested by the
mobile specified in SR_ID_BITMAP. The
mobile station shall set the fields to the value
specified in [30], corresponding to the
requested service options. 2-6 Service Options
may be present. The first service option
corresponds to the service instance with the
smallest SR_ID value in the SR_ID_BITMAP
field; the last Service Option in the list
corresponds to the largest SR_ID value in the
SR_ID_BITMAP field. The mobile station shall
set the fields to the value specified in [30],
corresponding to the requested service
options.
Logic flow 700, as shown in FIG. 6, is intended to provide a high-
level description of the information gathered and then incorporated into a
message extension in accordance with various embodiments of the
present invention. Logic flow 700 purposefully does not address the many
details of message generation described above in order to summarize the
process as a whole. Also, FIG. 6 illustrates but one order in which these
general steps may be performed. A person of ordinary skill in the art will
recognize that these steps may be performed in a different order or even
concurrently depending on the particular design or implementation goals
of an implementation.
Logic flow 700 begins (701) with the MS determining (702) which
service instances (i.e., which packet data connections) are involved in the
service request operation the message is requesting. The MS also
determines (703) whether service options for these service instances
need to be indicated. For example, the service options do not need to be

transmitted to the RAN in the case of a reactivation operation, since the
service options associated with each service instance are known as part
of the stored service configuration.
To identify the instances individually, the MS indicates (704) a first
SR_ID and (705) any additional SR_ID s. For example, for an Origination
message in the first embodiment, the first SR_ID is indicated in the
message body, while the additional SR_IDs are indicated in individual
records in the message extension. For an Origination message in the
second embodiment, the SR_IDs are indicated together in a bitmap.
If (706) service options are not required in the message, the
message (including its extension) can be transmitted to the RAN, and the
logic flow ends (710). Otherwise, the MS indicates (707) a service option
corresponding to the first SR_ID and (708) service options for each
additional SR_ID. For example, for an Origination message in the first
embodiment, the service option corresponding to the first SR_ID is
indicated in the message body, and service options for each additional
SR_ID are indicated in the message extension. Because a number of
SR_IDs may have the same corresponding service option, this
embodiment also provides that the service option corresponding to the
first SR_ID be a default service option for SR_IDs for which no other
service option is indicated.
The present embodiments describe how the IS-2000 Origination,
Enhanced Origination, and Reconnect messages can be enhanced to
support multiple packet data connections for existing service instances
requiring dormant mode handoffs or reactivation, or for each new service
instances requested. For example, when a dormant mode handoff is
required for a packet data session, the mobile will only be required to
send one IS-2000 Origination or Enhanced Origination message for all
service instance connections requiring a dormant mode handoff to a new
BS. When new service instance connections are requested, the mobile

will only be required to send one IS-2000 Origination message regardless
of how many connections are required.
This is useful for example when a user wants to make a VoIP call,
the mobile will only be required to send one Origination message
requesting both the main high speed packet data service option
connection and the VoIP SO connection. Multiple occurrences of the
Service Option element are also described herein. While dormant mode
handoffs currently only occur for high speed packet data SO 33 (not
required for circuit voice/data, Voice Over IP), the messages are future-
proofed by including a SO identifier for each dormant service instance to
allow for efficient dormant mode handoff of new packet data service
options that will be supported in the future.
The present application addresses the problem described above by
greatly reducing over the air signaling required to support multiple packet
data connections in the RAN. This will lead to faster packet call
originations, dormant mode handoffs and reactivations, and thus,
increased call capacity in the network and increased battery life in
mobiles, particularly in networks where packet zones are small and
frequent dormant mode handoffs occur.
In the foregoing specification, the present invention has been
described with reference to specific embodiments. However, one of
ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that various modifications and
changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the
present invention as set forth in the appended claims. Accordingly, the
