Description of related art

Under the promotion of Next Generation Wireless Technology, cellular network can provide a user the visit to the information from internet Ask, described information such as video on demand, video conference, database etc..Therefore the use of cell phone is no longer confined to voice biography It is defeated.

However, delivering internet content by cell phone remains some problems.For example, even in advanced bee In the case that nest system provides high bandwidth connection, bottleneck, Yi Jiyou are remained between internet and cellular network (CN) Internet caused delay in itself.This situation hinders the ability that cellular telephone subscribers fully utilize the performance of advanced CN. Because smooth and effective data flow is important for a user, which hinders is carried out because of spy using cell phone Net accesses.

It is another demand field to produce payment request.Although more and more individuals have got used to on-line purchase commodity And service, but the concise and consistent mechanism for being used for safely producing the request to this payment is still not present.

Another demand field is related to alarm.Position including house, office and other environment usually includes calculating dress Put and at least some form of network connection.In spite of such connectedness, but there is appropriate alarm still can not Some situations.For example, billions of children wear diaper, and about a quarter may be any given in them Time is influenced by wet diaper, this is because caretaker (such as parent, nurse etc.) is not notified child's in real time Diaper status.

Therefore, also there is to such system and the demand of corresponding equipment and process, it is eliminated for by making The shortcomings that existing network of internet content being delivered with CN.Also there is to the system and relevant art for producing payment request Demand.Also there is the demand to such system and relevant art, it is used for children's progress such as to wearing diaper The individual delivering alarm of the care-giver for the treatment of etc.

Embodiment

In the following description, for illustrative purposes, set forth the details of many, such as flow chart and system configuration so as to Understanding to one or more embodiments of the invention is provided.However, for those skilled in the art it is apparent that these have Body details be not put into practice it is essential to the invention.

According to an aspect of the present invention, phone user's request associated with definite position and access the Internet content.Cause The offer of special net content is customized according to position, and is provided in a series of network of local customs.Given local network Network includes server, and the server is configured to include the content for being suitable for its position.The delivering of content is to pass through local Base station, cell phone from the particular home network configured after this manner to user are realized.

For example, when detecting that phone user is regional close to Hollywood, the information in relation to Hollywood can pass through Hollywood The one or more cellular network base stations in area access.These base stations deliver the internet content related with this area, such as Website in relation to film and movie star.What the base station that the internet content is saved in covering this area can easily access In server so as into the service area phone user provide faster with more efficient transmission.

By being optimized for wireless network user to the position of internet content, the present invention realize optimal data stream with Various abundant informations and data from internet are accessed for phone user.

Fig. 1 is the block diagram that explanation is configured to provide according to the present invention the system 100 of internet content delivering.System 100 fundamental is user equipment (UE) 110, Radio Access Network (RAN) 120, core cellular network (CCN) 130, outside Network (EN) 140 and local custom network (LCN) 150.

UE 110 is arranged to the cell phone to communicate with one or more base stations of RAN 120.Although UE 110 are preferably cell phone, it should be appreciated that, various equipment can be equipped with identical communication function.UE 110 other Example includes personal digital assistant (PDA), set-top box, information station or is configured to any personal meter with wireless communication ability Calculate device.

RAN 120 and CCN 130 preferably implements the customary components of cellular network and is further described below.RAN 120 include base station and radio network controller (RNC) element.Base station provides resource management, and provides and be used to change UE 110 The interface of data flow between RNC.RNC controls the Radio Resource for the base station that it is connected to, and also manages and arrive UE 110 connection.

CCN 130 is connected with EN 140.The most important example of EN 140 can be divided into two kinds：Circuit switching (CS) 144 network of 142 networks and packet switch (PS).142 networks of CS are provided to be connected for the circuit switching of circuit-switched service, example Such as telephone communication and ISDN.144 networks of PS provide the connection for packet data service.Internet is the very heavy of PS networks Will and famous application.

CCN 130 includes MSC/VLR, GMSC, HLR, SGSN and GGSN element.HLR (attaching position register) is storage The database of such as information of customer service profile etc.Service profile includes information, service that described information includes allowing, Random zone, forwarding number etc..HLR store 110 positions of UE in order to will calling and other information routers to UE 110.

MSC/VLR (mobile services switching centre and Visited Location Registor) provides friendship to the UE positioned at current location respectively Operation and database are changed for carrying out circuit switching (CS) business.VLR is by the service profile of user, and on UE positions More accurate information is stored in service system.CS connections pass through GMSC (gateway MSC), and GMSC is to be located to arrive exterior CS networks Tie point switch.

SGSN (service GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) supporting node) is functionally similar to the function of MSC/VLR, still It is typically used to packet switch (PS) business.PS connections pass through GGSN (Gateway GPRS Support Node).

LCN 150 includes one or more computing devices, and the computing device is configured to include memory, working ability With interface to provide function described herein.LCN 150 includes being configured to the local service for providing customization internet content Device.LCN 150 is further configured to include access to content monitoring module, and the access to content monitoring module monitoring access to the Internet is simultaneously And determine the content of the designated position suitable for LCN 150.

Therefore LCN 150 is performed and the relevant monitoring of content being locally applicable in and cache.For function for monitoring, prison Depending on including local IP access, it determines that the user positioned at the position accesses those contents.For caching function, LCN 150 The cache of internet content being locally applicable in is kept, it includes refreshing to add new content and remove by deriving from The outmoded content that the information of function for monitoring determines.

For determining whether content is that a kind of locally applicable technology is measurement access frequency.If located in being permitted for the position Multi-user determines to access specific internet content, then the specific internet content be just determined to be it is locally applicable and It is comprised in next reproducting periods in cache.

Except locally applicable content is monitored and cache in addition to, LCN 150 is configured to logically approach In the base station of the cellular network positioned at specific location (one or more).In one example, close in logic is by making LCN 150 close physical proximity with related one or more base stations (such as base station in same geographical area) come what is realized.For example, LCN 150 can be located in metropolitan areas or the region of definite postal region numbering (one or more) for covering metropolitan areas.It can replace Ground is changed, it is close in logic to be realized in the case where that need not be physically adjacent to.For example, this can include LCN 150 by providing The private resource of high bandwidth connection between local user is realized.In this example, LCN 150 is configured to without physics Locally applicable content is more efficiently and quickly delivered in the case of neighbouring due to private resource.

According on the other hand, to further improve efficiency, the locally applicable content for giving LCN is organized in point In Rotating fields.The content of first layer is considered to have the content of the applicability of highest local.Provided always according to first layer attached Add layer, a sequence of layer is gradually covered larger geographic area (that is, the base station for being gradually covered greater number).According to a side Face, the layering are related to the communication of the adjacent LCN with covering increased region, to determine the local content suitable for additional level. Thus, for example, first layer positioned at the local of first level granularity with being applicable in content (for example, as being only LCN or small-sized locals The monitoring of LCN groups/determine) corresponding, the second layer is applicable in content (for example, by right with the local positioned at second level granularity The content often accessed in the range of the large area that the access of some LCN in the large area of restriction is monitored to determine Logic " and " or intersection) corresponding, etc..

Therefore it is described referring concurrently to the flow chart of Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 come the operation to the system for updating LCN.The mistake The internet content that journey starts from user's access to current location carries out monitoring 202.This is by monitoring CCN 140 and PS The gateway of connection between 144 networks is realized to follow the trail of internet content that phone user is accessed.

It will be noted that the content of monitoring can have two beneficial uses.A kind of is to adjust locally applicable content Delivering, this can be determined by the access frequency of given position.Another kind be allow content supplier (such as businessman or other Commercial entity) receive such instruction：Those contents are locally applicable.This allows supplier's help or further of content Participate in determining that what is locally applicable.For example, being provided with the businessman of the instruction of the local applicability of some contents may wish Prestige enables the user of the scope to obtain advertisement, coupon etc..

Together with the monitoring 202, make base station (one or more) to asking internet content it is definite (one or It is multiple) 204.This can be performed by checking VLR and HLR with finding to send the base station passed through to internet content request.Should It is only a kind of mode that can determine physical location that this, which notices that base station is found,.Other examples including but not limited to make It is determined with GPS, postcode, telephone number and IP address information.

Next step includes according to the monitoring 202 to base station (one or more) and determines (one or more) 204 come really Fixed 206 contents being locally applicable in.The definite of local applicability is performed by determining access frequency.Alternatively, it is local Applicability can be carried out by the position that will ask user (base station) position associated with requested content with being identified as Compare to determine.

Then, for current (such as first) layer, content is loaded 208 logically close to the user of given position In server.This can be loaded with internet content by arrangement and/or current (such as first) layer of other information/data takes Device (one or more) be engaged in complete so that the data being stored in for phone user by base stations in the server are realized Optimal and faster data transfer.For example, the server can be placed logically close to base station, wherein phone user is led to The base station is crossed to access the data being stored in one or more servers.

The process is according to requiring to iterate through multiple layers.If it is determined that 210 extra plays are to be updated, then step 202- 208 are just performed to load next 212 (such as second) stratum servers (one or more) using locally applicable content.Such as Described such, when layer increase, this preferably needs broader geographic area.The process continues until determining 210：There is no more layers to need to be determined and load.The number of layer in given system will according to application and according to requiring and Change.Layering often refers to maximize the locally available content arrived with producing and managing needed for the layer for increasingly wide region Process resource between balance.

The content of the one or more base stations of deposit can refresh 214 according to any desired timetable or triggering.For Refresh operation, process described above are repeated, started again with first layer.It is outmoded interior to be perhaps otherwise determined as no longer It is that locally applicable content can be removed, and new content can be increased certainly during the refresh cycle.

Extra server can be according to requiring longitudinally and/or laterally to be increased.Longitudinal direction refers to can be to earnest Reason position increases server to cover first, second, third, etc. layer.Laterally refer to that increase is corresponding not from different positions Same server group (that is, a group is used for first layer, and second group is used for second layer, etc.).

Regular timetable or a certain number of activities can be used in the refreshing of triggering layering.In 150 servers of LCN Internet content according to should from base station send the discovery content updated to the request of internet content modify.Storage Internet content in the server refreshes in reasonable time, such as when the user of the not accessed content of server is flooded When.

Therefore server is loaded for the information broadcasting and/or multicast and/or any to be visited by phone user The data asked are to realize the optimal transmission of the user in service area.

Locally applicable content can be sent and be delivered to as requested user.For sending locally applicable internet The example of the communication path of content includes the relatively straightforward path by RAN 120, then passes through RAN by CCN 130 120 path, or other.

Various technologies can be used for real together with UE 110 (or other equipment) request of the user to internet content Now by the locally applicable content of 150 caches of LCN.In one example, requests of the UE 110 to internet content promotes Initial inspection is carried out to the content in locally applicable content, conventional access to the Internet is followed by, if the content proves Be current cache locally applicable content in lacking in if content.In addition, the side according to layering described above Method, can carry out attempting for the first time to meet to ask from first layer, be followed by second layer, etc..Searched in response to specific request The number of plies of rope can change according to requiring.When specifying the searched number of plies to use up for current request, conventional internet is visited Ask and be used for retrieval and the relevant content of the request.

Various cache management and network optimization technologies can be used for the content that management is locally applicable in.For example, complete association (FA), directly mapping (DM) and group (SA) mechanism that is connected can be used to definite particular content and can be stored on server Where technology example.In addition it is possible to using being used to ensure block validity and for managing cache hit and miss Technology.Random, LRU (least recently used) and FIFO (first in first out) block alternative are that those can be used for pipe Manage the scheme of the block in cache.

According on the other hand, present invention facilitates for mobile payment (or the transmission and such as alarm of other information Etc information reception) system scheme.Preferably, this respect of the invention realizes cellular network, wireless personal area Net (WPAN) and wireless recognition technique.Various technologies can be used for these parts, including but not limited to for Cellular Networks The 3G technology of network；Zigbee, Bluetooth or UWB technology for WPAN；And RFID (the examples for wireless recognition technique Such as NFC).

Fig. 3 illustrates the example for realizing the system 300 of this respect of the present invention.System 300 includes user equipment (such as honeycomb Phone, PDA etc.) 310 and wireless HUB 320, it is connected to server 330 by network 340 (such as internet).

Wireless HUB (WHUB) 320 can be located at public or private position.For public position, WHUB 320 is excellent Selection of land is placed in information station.Information station can be located on street, or airport, shopping mall or any easily be perceived Arrive and the position of user's traffic may be included.For private position, WHUB 320 is preferably configured in such as house Or used in the position of hotel room etc.In these environment, WHUB 320 may be provided in less equipment, such as A part for set-top box (STB).

Hand-held set 310 is equipped with the label for being provided with unique identifier, and the unique identifier can be wirelessly transferred to WHUB 320.Preferable label is near-field communication (NFC) label 312.NFC provides short-range wireless connectivity, it uses magnetic The communication between equipment is realized in field sensing.It has several centimetres of short distance, this is considered as the application to this respect of the present invention It is favourable.Although NFC is preferable, RFID or other replacements can also be provided.Hand-held set 310 further includes WPAN receipts Device 314 is sent out, the WPAN transceivers 314 allow the extra communication channel between hand-held set and WHUB320.

Similarly, wireless WHUB 320 is equipped with NFC reader 322, WPAN transceivers 324 and network adapter 326. NFC technique provides verification and the data exchange of safety automation between NFC label and NFC reader.According to the present invention this Aspect, NFC are uniquely associated with the other information for allowing appropriate action (payment, alarm etc.) to occur.For example, it is used in system In place of providing mobile payment, RFID tag is associated with the bank account of user.In addition, once by unique identifier to equipment Verified, second secure communication channel with more multi-capacity is just established between hand-held set 310 and WHUB 320.This Action request and related communication is allowed reliably to be transmitted between both devices.

Therefore, once verification based on NFC is completed, safe wireless connection between hand-held set 310 and WHUB 320 just by Establish.The communication can realize WPAN transceivers, compared with NFC, the WPAN transceivers have higher data rate and compared with Long working range.Secure communication allow to exchange and act it is relevant to be sent between hand-held set 310 and WHUB 320 it is attached Add information, such as buying the price and credit card information and corresponding payment scheme of request.Secure communication can pass through Hardware (such as proprietary hardware chip group) and software (such as data encryption algorithm) are realized.

WHUB 320 can also exchange data with other WPAN equipment 350.This for WHUB 320 and these equipment 340 into Row communication is probably beneficial to exchange and act relevant information.For example, WHUB 320 can be from equipped with WPAN equipment 340 The water meter of function collects water consumption information.The data can be locally stored by WHUB 320, or can pass through network connection 350 are sent to appropriate server 330.WHUB 320 collects data and is not necessarily required to send out at the same time with the action of user's request It is raw.For example, the acquisition and transmission of water consumption information can periodically occur, and ask to be separated with carrying out the user of respective pay.

It is to be further noted that WHUB 320 can optionally be configured with wireless communication ability, such as it is provided in honeycomb electricity Ability in words.Therefore WHUB 320 can be configured to the internet content with being locally applicable in above in conjunction with the delivering of Fig. 1 and 2 descriptions System work together.

Fig. 4 further illustrates and provides the example of the payment process 400 of this respect according to the present invention.Process 400 starts In 402 processes of verifying, 402 processes of the verification provide the resolution and identification to hand-held set by wireless WHUB via NFC label.

By the communication of single secure communication channel (such as WPAN) and then it is established.WPAN functions are used for hand-held Communicate between machine and WHUB, so as to can safely be exchanged with the requested relevant content of action.In this example, institute The action of request is purchase request 404.

It will be noted that action must may or may not followed by verify 402.For example, cell phone can be configured to wrap Containing ability is browsed, which allows the interface of cell phone to be used to check article before purchase request is sent.

Various purchase patterns can be realized using purchase request.Example can include individually being transported to a certain address Physical items, the content of (possibly) cell phone, service etc. can be downloaded to immediately.

Internet content can be asked by cell phone teamwork to access.One example of content is provided to cell phone Son can be the locally applicable internet content above in conjunction with Fig. 1-2 descriptions.Moreover, cell phone can be by except passing through Channel beyond WHUB carrys out access the Internet content.

It is also noted that purchase request is only a kind of form for the action that can be performed.Action includes but is not limited to Keep accounts and deliver, merchandised using fund filling account, online shopping etc..

The process of verification can be based on tag ID and password.Tag ID and password arrive authentication server by sending 406, verify Server is then back to for confirming that verifies notifies 408.Preferably, the verification indicates whether the individual is that he or she is claimed That people, but address inquires to the individual access rights.Authentication server may reside within inside or outside WHUB.

As needed, it is also possible to need the additional information associated with requested action.For example, external server may It is required that account identification information or password for accessing online account.In these cases, external server is sent a request to WHUB is to ask the information.WHUB can store such information and respond such request.Alternatively, WHUB can be into One step exchanges information (passing through hand-held set) with user, to obtain the requested additional information of external server.

Together with purchase request 404, payment request is sent by network connection between WHUB and external server 410.Payment request 410 allows user to complete and purchase 404 relevant transaction of request.In order to realize that payment request is satisfactorily completed, Server communicates with payment gateway, followed by afterwards instruction payment request whether the resolution 412 of success or failure.

When indicating successful payment request, it is related with requested action that WHUB just receives 414 from external server Receipt or confirmation number, and 416 and/or relevant information are delivered to hand-held set to confirm the completion of the action.This can be receipt, Confirmation number, coupon code etc..
