  • mobile stations, handsets, or access terminals receive signals from fixed position base stations (also referred to as cell sites or cells) that support communication links or service within particular geographic regions adjacent to or surrounding the base stations.
  • Base stations provide entry points to an access network (AN)/radio access network (RAN), which is generally a packet data network using standard Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) based protocols that support methods for differentiating traffic based on Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. Therefore, the base stations generally interact with ATs through an over the air interface and with the AN through Internet Protocol (IP) network data packets.

  • a dispatch model communication between endpoints (ATs) occurs within virtual groups, wherein the voice of one “talker” is transmitted to one or more “listeners.”
  • a single instance of this type of communication is commonly referred to as a dispatch call, or simply a PTT call.
  • a PTT call is an instantiation of a group, which defines the characteristics of a call.
  • a group in essence is defined by a member list and associated information, such as group name or group identification.
  • a transmission of data to a single destination is referred to as “unicast”.
  • a “broadcast” refers to a transmission of data packets to all destinations or access terminals (e.g., within a given cell, served by a given service provider, etc.), while a “multicast” refers to a transmission of data packets to a given group of destinations or access terminals.
  • the given group of destinations or “multicast group” may include more than one and less than all of possible destinations or access terminals (e.g., within a given group, served by a given service provider, etc.). However, it is at least possible in certain situations that the multicast group comprises only one access terminal, similar to a unicast, or alternatively that the multicast group comprises all access terminals (e.g., within a cell or sector), similar to a broadcast.
  • Broadcasts and/or multicasts may be performed within wireless communication systems in a number of ways, such as performing a plurality of sequential unicast operations to accommodate the multicast group, allocating a unique broadcast/multicast channel (BCH) for handling multiple data transmissions at the same time and the like.

  • a broadcast channel can be used for push-to-talk calls using conventional signaling techniques.
  • the use of a broadcast channel may improve bandwidth requirements over conventional unicast techniques, the conventional signaling of the broadcast channel can still result in additional overhead and/or delay and may degrade system performance.

  • announce ACK message transmission of 420 and the BCMCSFlowRegistration message transmission of 425 are shown as single steps, the announce ACK messages and BCMCSFlowRegistration messages may each be sent from different of the ATs B through E at different times, and 420 and 425 have been condensed into single blocks in FIG. 4 for convenience of explanation.
  • the application server 170 begins the PTT session or call by providing the RAN 120 with multicast messages to be forwarded to base stations serving sectors including one or more ATs that have registered for the announced PTT session (e.g., ATs A through E in sector 500 ). Accordingly, in 435 and 440 , respectively, ATs A through E monitor the multicast messages sent in 430 associated with the announced PTT session.
  • an announce ACK message and BCMCSFlowRegistration message are sent from each AT that receives the announce message from 405 .
  • the application server 170 need only receive a single announce ACK message in order to determine to initiate the PTT session.
  • the PTT session or call can begin (e.g., the PTT initiator can begin speaking or multicasting to at least one recipient) once the application server 170 receives an announce ACK message from the first responder.
  • subsequent announce ACK messages can be redundant, and can increase interference on the reverse link access channel.
  • redundant announce ACK messages received at the application or PTT server 170 can increase interference on the reverse link access channel. Accordingly, embodiments of the present invention, which will now be described in greater detail, are directed to reducing or “suppressing” the number of announce ACK messages sent in response to an announce message announcing a PTT session.
  • FIG. 6 illustrates a multicast messaging process according to an embodiment of the present invention.
  • PTT initiator one of a plurality of access terminals in communication with the RAN 120 (“PTT initiator”) requests to initiate a PTT session, or multicast session.
  • the PTT initiator sends a PTT call request to the application server 170 (e.g., a PTT server).
  • the application server 170 announces the PTT session to each multicast group member for the PTT session.
  • the application server 170 forwards the announce message to the RAN 120 via the PDSN 160 and/or BSN 165 , and the RAN 120 transmits the announce message over the air interface 104 (e.g., over a downlink broadcast channel (BCH), over a downlink control channel, etc.) to a plurality of ATs.
  • the announce message is transmitted in multiple sectors, including sector 500 , within the wireless communication system 100 .
  • the announce message sent in 605 may be bundled with an access control message (ACM), with the ACM providing feedback protocols for ATs.
  • ACM access control message
  • the ACM determines a manner in which ATs can respond to the announce message.
  • FIG. 6 is described as performed at sector 500 within the RAN 120 . However, it will be appreciated that the process of FIG. 6 may concurrently be performed at other sectors (not shown) within the RAN 120 .
  • AT A responds to the announce message by sending an announce ACK message on the reverse link access channel to the base station 505 of the RAN 120 .
  • the announce ACK message is “bundled” with a BCMCSFlowRegistration message within a single access probe to register for the BCMCS flow associated with the announce message.
  • announce ACKs and BCMCSFlowRegistration messages sent in response to announce messages are not necessarily bundled together, and are rather typically sent independently on different access probes. Accordingly, it will be appreciated that synchronizing the transmission of the announce ACK and the BCMCSFlowRegistration message within a single access probe reduces the traffic load on the reverse link access channel. Further, while not shown explicitly within FIG.
  • the RAN 120 forwards the announce ACK message to the application or PTT server 170 .
  • the announce ACK message can be sent in accordance with an ACM that was previously sent to AT A (e.g., and other ATs).
  • AT A may be the first to respond because the ACM designates AT A a first slot in which to respond to the announce message, while other ATs wait at least until AT A attempts to respond to the announce message before initiating their own attempt to respond.
  • AT A may simply be the first AT to successfully respond irrespective of whether an AT response order is indicate via an ACM.
  • the RAN 120 determines whether the base station 505 has sufficient resources to handle the requested PTT session. For example, if the base station 505 of the RAN 120 is already participating in a number of PTT sessions, the amount of downlink bandwidth on the downlink broadcast channel (BCH) may be relatively limited, and the RAN 120 may determine that the base station 505 does not have sufficient resources to handle the announced PTT session. If the RAN 120 determines that sufficient resources are not available, the process advances to 700 of FIG. 7 , which will be described in greater detail below. Otherwise, the process advances to 620 of FIG. 6 .
  • BCH downlink broadcast channel
  • the RAN 120 /base station 505 transmits an announce ACK suppression message (e.g., over the downlink control channel, the downlink BCH, etc.).
  • the announce ACK suppression message is sent to discourage ATs that have not yet responded to the announce message within the sector 500 from sending the announce ACK message.
  • the announce ACK suppression message is sent by the RAN 120 at least at base station 505 within sector 500 . However, the announce ACK suppression message can also be sent by the RAN 120 within each sector within which the announce message was announced in 605 .
  • the announce ACK suppression message is a broadcast overhead message (BOM) that is sent in response to a first BCMCSFlowRegistration message received for the announced PTT session within a given sector.
  • BOMs are well-known in the art, and include a listing of one or more BCMCS flow IDs for BCMCS flows carried within a given sector. BOMs also include information that instruct ATs with regard to how to “tune” to an advertised BCMCS flow on the downlink broadcast channel (BCH). Accordingly, in this example, the BOM sent in 620 includes the BCMCS flow ID for the announced PTT session.
  • BOMs are sent on the downlink control channel within reserved slots of the downlink control cycle.
  • the BOM is sent at the first available or earliest slot of the downlink control channel cycle, and need not wait for the scheduled/reserved BOM slot(s).
  • the BOM which in this example functions as an announce ACK suppression message, as early as possible, the chances of reaching ATs before transmission of an announce ACK message (and the BCMCSFlowRegistration message) increase.
  • the BOM can be sent at its normal, reserved slot(s) on the downlink BCH in 620 .
  • the BOM still functions as an announce ACK suppression message because the ATs are configured to interpret any BOM for the announced PTT session as a request not to send an announce ACK message for the announced PTT session.
  • the announce ACK suppression message sent in 620 need not be a BOM (e.g., either an “immediate” BOM or a BOM sent on reserved downlink channel slots), but can be configured as a proprietary downlink message sent on the control channel.
  • the proprietary downlink message may correspond to a message that is not specified within 1x EV-DO protocols.
  • the ATs may be specially configured to recognize the proprietary message as such.
  • ATs B through E which received the announce message from 605 but have not yet sent announce ACK messages, receive the announce ACK suppression message.
  • announce ACK suppression messages e.g., an immediate BOM for the announced PTT session, a conventional BOM for the announced PTT session, a proprietary announce ACK suppression message, etc.
  • ATs B through E suppress the announce ACK message transmission.
  • each of ATs B through E can be configured to interpret the immediate BOM associated with the announced PTT session as a request not to send the announce ACK message, and so on.
  • the application server 170 begins the PTT session or call by providing the RAN 120 with multicast messages to be transmitted, in 630 , on the downlink broadcast channel (BCH). Accordingly, in 635 and 640 , respectively, ATs A through E monitor the multicast messages sent in 630 associated with the announced PTT session.
  • BCH downlink broadcast channel
  • ATs B through E do not send announce ACK messages, ATs B through E are not precluded from monitoring the PTT session, and can monitor the periodic BOMs sent on the downlink control channel, and tune to multicast messages on the BCH, which collectively comprise the multicast messaging of the PTT session, in the same manner as ATA.
  • BCMCSFlowRegistration messages may be bundled with announce ACK messages, BCMCSFlowRegistration messages may also be sent separately.
  • BOMs typically include a register for paging (RFP) field and a register for dynamic broadcast (RFDB) field. If the RFP field and/or the RFDB field is set to a first logic level (e.g., a higher logic level or logic “1”), ATs receiving the BOM may be prompted to send a BCMCSFlowRegistration message.
  • RFP register for paging
  • RFDB register for dynamic broadcast
  • the RFP field and/or the RFDB field is set to a second logic level (e.g., a lower logic level or logic “0”)
  • ATs receiving the BOM may not be prompted to send a BCMCSFlowRegistration message.
  • ATs B through E do not send an announce ACK message or a BCMCSFlowRegistration message
  • ATs B through E do not send an announce ACK message, but do send a BCMCSFlowRegistration message.
  • the process advances to 700 of FIG. 7 .
  • the RAN 120 (e.g., via base station 505 ) transmits a broadcast reject message (BRM) to ATs A through E.
  • BRMs are well-known in the art and defined by 1x EV-DO standards.
  • the RAN 120 may also notify the application server 170 that the base station 505 cannot support the PTT session in 705 .
  • AT A receives the BRM and interprets the BRM as a request to ignore the announce message.
  • AT A ignores the announce message by not attempting to monitor the announced PTT session (e.g., even though AT A previously attempted to register for the announced PTT session by sending the announce ACK message including the BCMCSFlowRegistration message in 610 ).
  • ATs B through E also receive the BRM and interpret the BRM as a request to ignore the announce message.
  • ATs B through E ignore the announce message by not attempting to monitor and/or register for the announced PTT session.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 are directed to “RAN implemented” announce ACK suppression processes, in an alternative embodiment, the application or PTT server 170 may generate the announce ACK suppression message.
  • FIG. 8 illustrates a multicast messaging process according to another embodiment of the present invention.
  • 800 , 805 and 810 correspond to 600 , 605 and 610 , respectively, of FIG. 6 , and as such will not be described further for the sake of brevity.
  • the application server 170 sends an announce ACK suppression message to the RAN 120 , which transmits the announce ACK suppression message at the base station 505 within sector 500 of FIG. 5 (e.g., on a downlink control channel, a downlink broadcast channel (BCH), etc.). While not shown explicitly within FIG. 8 , the announce ACK suppression message sent from the application server 170 can also be sent to each sector that transmitted the announce message at 805 . In another example, the announce ACK suppression message sent from the application server can be sent within a given “cluster” of the wireless communication system.
  • a cluster corresponds to a contiguous set of sectors carrying the multicast flow on a given interlace-multiplex pair of the downlink broadcast channel, wherein the contiguous set of sectors includes both (i) target sectors that are expected to include one or more multicast group members and (ii) supporting sectors that satisfy a given relationship with the target sectors, are not expected to include any multicast group members and are configured to carry the multicast flow as well in order to “support” the target sectors.
  • Clusters, target sectors and supporting sectors are described in more detail within U.S. Provisional Patent Application No.
  • the announce ACK suppression message may be sent in one (or more) clusters of the wireless communication system.
  • the announce ACK suppression message may be a proprietary message, and the respective multicast group members or ATs may be configured to recognize the announce ACK suppression message and interpret the announce ACK suppression message as a request not to send an announce ACK for a particular announced PTT session.
  • the process of FIG. 8 is described below assuming that all ATs are configured to recognize announce ACK suppression messages.
  • the RAN 120 determines whether the base station 505 has sufficient resources to handle the requested PTT session. For example, if the base station 505 of the RAN 120 is already participating in a number of PTT sessions, the amount of downlink bandwidth may be relatively limited and the RAN 120 may determine that the base station 505 does not have sufficient resources to handle the announced PTT session. If the RAN 120 determines that sufficient resources are not available, the process advances to 700 of FIG. 7 .
  • ATs B through E which received the announce message from 805 but have not yet sent announce ACK messages, receive the announce ACK suppression message generated at the application server 170 . Instead of sending the announce ACK message, ATs B through E suppress the announce ACK message transmission. For example, if the announce ACK suppression message embodied as a proprietary downlink control message, each of ATs B through E is configured to interpret the proprietary downlink control message as a request not to send the announce ACK message for the announced PTT session.
  • the application server 170 begins the PTT session or call by providing the RAN 120 with multicast messages to be transmitted in 830 on the downlink broadcast channel (BCH). Accordingly, in 835 and 840 , respectively, ATs A through E monitor the multicast messages sent in 830 associated with the announced PTT session.
  • BCH downlink broadcast channel
  • ATs B through E do not send announce ACK messages
  • ATs B through E are not precluded from monitoring the PTT session, and can monitor the BOMs on the downlink control channel and multicast messages on the BCH, which collectively comprise the multicast messaging of the PTT session, in the same manner as AT A.
  • announce ACK messages need be suppressed, and not necessarily BCMCSFlowRegistration messages. This concept is discussed above in the description of FIG. 6 in greater detail with respect to RFDB and RFP fields within the BOM used to either trigger or suppress BCMCSFlowRegistration messaging.
  • an announce ACK suppression message is sent to ATs within a given sector either from a base station serving the sector or from a centralized PTT server
  • any communication entity recognizing a first responder to an announced PTT session may be capable of initiating the transmission of the announce ACK suppression message.
  • other embodiments of the present invention may be directed to any implementation wherein an announce ACK suppression message is transmitted to one or more sectors responsive to a first responder to a PTT session.
