TL;DR: In this paper, a hierarchical communication system is described in which two wireless local area networks exhibiting substantially different characteristics are employed to link inherently portable or mobile computer devices, and the communication in each local area network is controlled by a reservation access protocol.
Abstract: A hierarchical communication system is described in which two wireless local area networks exhibiting substantially different characteristics are employed to link inherently portable or mobile computer devices. A series of radio base stations make up a infrastructure network. The infrastructure network and at least one portable computer device make up the first local area network. The communication on the first local area network is accomplished by spread spectrum frequency hopping communication. A second local area network allows for radio communication between a portable computer device and peripheral devices with built-in transceivers utilized by the portable computer device. The communication in each local area network is controlled by a reservation access communication protocol. The communication protocol facilitates frequency hopping synchronization and supports adaptive data rate selection based upon the quality of communication on the communication channel. The communication protocol prevents interference between communication on the first local area network and communication on the second local area network. In a premises LAN, a series of radio base stations and a backbone LAN make up an infrastructure network. The infrastructure network and at least one mobile computing device make up a higher-power LAN, utilizing a frequency hopping protocol. A lower-power LAN allows for radio communication between a mobile computing device and peripheral devices, utilizing a single-frequency spread spectrum protocol. A vehicular LAN provides for short-range communication between a vehicle terminal and a portable terminal. When out of direct RF range of the premises LAN, the vehicle terminal maintains indirect communication when necessary with the premises LAN via one of several alternate RF channels. A microprocessor, located inside radio units which participate in multiple LAN's, selects the appropriate protocol, frequency band and power level for communicating through the network.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present techniques for ensuring secure access to local services of mobile devices of a wireless communication system, such that only authorized services are able to remotely alter the local service of the mobile devices.
Abstract: Techniques for ensuring secure access to local service of mobile devices of a wireless communication system are disclosed. The techniques control access to local services of mobile devices such that only authorized services are able to remotely alter the local services of the mobile devices. Before permitting access to local services of a mobile device, the identity of the network site seeking to have access is checked to determine whether the network site is authorized for such access. If the network site is authorized, then access is permitted and the network site is able to modify or alter the local services of the mobile device. On the other hand, when the network site is not authorized, then the network site is denied access to the local service so that the local services provided by the network site are not open to attack or corruption from unscrupulous network sites.

TL;DR: In this paper, the various LANs are combined into search groups, represented by address prefixes, to which LAN-initiated connection requests can be broadcast and which can respond so as to establish the data path connections.
Abstract: A system for interconnecting widely separated local area networks (LANs) by means of a wide area network (WAN) utilizes network level facilities to establish a connection through the wide area network and to create connection table entries at the WAN access point which allow subsequent data frames to be transmitted through the wide area network without such network level operations. More particularly, the various LANs are combined into search groups, represented by address prefixes, to which LAN-initiated connection requests can be broadcast and which can respond so as to establish the data path connections. This system has the connection flexibility of a prior art router and, at the same time, the low overhead of a prior art bridge.

TL;DR: In this article, a system and method for splitting control and media content signals of a cellular network connection of a mobile station is presented, which allows a user to control a web browser on a remote device by providing user input to the mobile station.
Abstract: This invention provides a system and method for splitting control and media content signals of a cellular network connection of a mobile station. A mobile station engages in a WAP browsing session with a cellular network connection over an air interface. As a user moves into coverage area of an access point, another browsing session is established between the mobile station and a non-cellular network connection. More specifically, the user's WAP browsing session with a cellular network connection is upgraded to a Web browsing session with a non-cellular network connection. The present invention permits a user to control a Web browser on a remote device by providing user input to the mobile station. In particular, a media content portion of the cellular network connection is split and rerouted to the remote device, and a control portion of the cellular network connection is split and rerouted either via the non-cellular network connection or via the cellular network connection.
