Definitions

  • Figure 1 pictorially depicts a process for content caching with remote charging services in a RAN.
  • a cellular telecommunications network can be provided to include different base stations 120 arranged to provide wireless telephonic access to different end user devices 110 for the PSTN 140.
  • Clusters of the base stations 120 can be communicatively linked to a common RNC 130 that in turn can be coupled to a CN 150 thus forming a RAN.
  • the CN 150 can include both a SGSN 160A acting as a gateway for traffic between the CN 150, the PSTN 140 and each RNC 130, and also a GGSN 160B acting as a gateway between the CN 150 and the data communications network 100— typically the global Internet.
  • the CN 150 itself can support a number of content services 170 as is well known in the art.
  • Figure 3 is a flow chart illustrating a process for content caching with remote charging services in a RAN.
  • a data request can be received in a base station of a RAN from an end user device wirelessly communicating with the base station.
  • a local cache in the base station can be consulted for a response to the request.
  • decision block 330 if a response to the request can be located in the local cache, in block 340 the response can be returned to the end user device. Otherwise, in block 350 a response to the request can be retrieved from a content provider over the Internet by way of a CN and a corresponding RNC and ultimately back to the base station.
