Abstract

Abstract A method of connection and data transfer between at least one base station managing device and a network management center of a radio communications system comprises the steps of: (a) gathering data in accordance with formats required by the network management center at the at least one base station managing device; (b) generating a process of a corresponding format at the base station managing device; (c) notifying identification information of the process generated at the at least one base station managing device; (d) driving a subprocess according to the process identification information at the at least one base station managing device; and (e) transmitting the corresponding formatted data to the network management center.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 160 words
A method of connection and data transfer between at least one base station managing device and a network management center of a radio communications system, the method comprising the steps of: (a) gathering data in accordance with formats required by the network management center at the at least one base station managing device; (b) generating a process of a corresponding format at the base station managing device; (c) notifying identification information of the process generated at the at least one base station managing device; (d) driving a subprocess according to the process identification information at the at least one base station managing device; (e) periodically transmitting the corresponding formatted data to a network interface handler interfacing the at least one base station managing device with the network management center; and (f) periodically transmitting the corresponding formatted data from the network interface handler to the network management center upon transmission of at least one control signal to the network interface handler.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 160 words
A method of connection and data transfer between at least one base station managing device and a network management center of a radio communications system, the method comprising the steps of: (a) gathering data in accordance with formats required by the network management center at the at least one base station managing device; (b) generating a process of a corresponding format at the base station managing device; (c) notifying identification information of the process generated at the at least one base station managing device; (d) driving a subprocess according to the process identification information at the at least one base station managing device; (e) periodically transmitting the corresponding formatted data to a network interface handler interfacing the at least one base station managing device with the network management center; and (f) periodically transmitting the corresponding formatted data from the network interface handler to the network management center upon transmission of at least one control signal to the network interface handler.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 35 words
The method of claim 1, wherein the data transferred between the at least one base station managing device and the network management center is one of real-time traffic data, period control data and trouble/status data.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 40 words
The method of claim 1, wherein the network management center utilizes the data transferred thereto from the at least one base station managing device in order to control the operation status of the at least one base station managing device.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 162 words
Apparatus for connection and data transfer between at least one base station managing device and a network management center of a radio communication system, the apparatus comprising: means for gathering data in accordance with formats required by the network management center at the at least one base station managing device; means for generating a process of a corresponding format at the base station managing device; means for notifying identification information of the process generated at the at least one base station managing device; means for driving a subprocess according to the process identification information at the at least one base station managing device; means for periodically transmitting the corresponding formatted data to a network interface handler interfacing the at least one base station managing device with the network management center; and means for periodically transmitting the corresponding formatted data from the network interface handler to the network management center upon transmission of at least one control signal to the network interface handler.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 162 words
Apparatus for connection and data transfer between at least one base station managing device and a network management center of a radio communication system, the apparatus comprising: means for gathering data in accordance with formats required by the network management center at the at least one base station managing device; means for generating a process of a corresponding format at the base station managing device; means for notifying identification information of the process generated at the at least one base station managing device; means for driving a subprocess according to the process identification information at the at least one base station managing device; means for periodically transmitting the corresponding formatted data to a network interface handler interfacing the at least one base station managing device with the network management center; and means for periodically transmitting the corresponding formatted data from the network interface handler to the network management center upon transmission of at least one control signal to the network interface handler.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 35 words
The apparatus of claim 4, wherein the data transferred between the at least one base station managing device and the network management center is one of real-time traffic data, period control data and trouble/status data.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 40 words
The apparatus of claim 4, wherein the network management center utilizes the data transferred thereto from the at least one base station managing device in order to control the operation status of the at least one base station managing device.
