Provided is a wireless communication terminal that allows a wireless communication connection to be disconnected even when an application program that requires continuation of the communication connection is being executed. The wireless communication terminal transmits data to a communication target in response to a transmission processing request from an application execution section for executing the application program. The wireless communication terminal is configured to: establish the wireless communication connection to the communication target; disconnect, based on a given condition, the wireless communication connection to the communication target to cause a shift to a communication interrupted state; re-establish the wireless communication connection to the communication target when the transmission processing request is received in the communication interrupted state from the application execution section; and transmit, to the communication target, the data relating to the transmission processing request after the re-establishment of the wireless communication connection.

Method and apparatus for controlling connectivity to a network for intermittent data services are disclosed. A new dormant mode is defined such that a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may transition from a connected state or an idle state to the dormant mode based on triggering conditions. The WTRU may transition from a connected state or an idle state to a dormant mode if the characteristic or the priority of the data matches a characteristics or a priority for the dormant mode and operate using configuration which is different from configuration used for the connected state or the idle state. The WTRU in the dormant mode may perform a WTRU-controlled mobility procedure. The WTRU in the dormant mode may maintain a dedicated resource, such as a cell radio network temporary identity (C-RNTI), for receiving a unicast traffic from the network.

Methods and apparatus for use in a wireless system are described where initiation of packet transmission is constrained in accordance to control actual packet transmission in a manner that reduces contention and possible collisions beyond that provided by lower layer resource contention mechanisms, e.g., 802.11 carrier sensing and/or transmission back-off timing mechanisms. Through higher level, e.g., MAC constraints, on packet transmission initiation, an air interface which employs carrier sensing can be used and controlled in a manner which reduces collisions and interference in applications where small packets, e.g., packets which can be transmitted in a fraction of the maximum permitted transmission time. The methods allow small packets in such systems to be transmitted on a periodic or semi-periodic basis in many cases.

An indirect communication system and a method of indirect communication include a mobile phone as either a calling device or receiving device. The mobile phone calls another device to set up a prospective communication, and then uses Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) to communicate with the other device over the Internet. The receiving device receives a generated signal notifying the receiving device of a proposed communication with the calling device. A server sets up a meeting point channel after the calling device has connected to the server. The server receives outgoing VoIP packets from the calling device and redirects the outgoing VoIP packets to the receiving device. 1. An indirect communication system , comprising:a calling device sending a signal to a receiving device over a first channel;a meeting point channel corresponding to the receiving device;the calling device connecting to the meeting point channel corresponding to the receiving device;the receiving device connecting to the meeting point channel corresponding to the receiving device; andthe meeting point channel receiving packets from the calling device and redirecting the packets to the receiving device.2. The indirect communication system of claim 1 , wherein the receiving device is a handset claim 1 , a phone claim 1 , a gateway claim 1 , a base station claim 1 , a server claim 1 , a cell tower claim 1 , a transceiver claim 1 , or a computer.3. The indirect communication system of claim 1 , wherein the calling device is a handset claim 1 , a phone claim 1 , a gateway claim 1 , a base station claim 1 , a server claim 1 , cell tower claim 1 , a transceiver claim 1 , or a computer.4. The indirect communication system of claim 1 , wherein the meeting point channel is a server claim 1 , a computer claim 1 , a base station claim 1 , a handset claim 1 , a Voice over Internet Protocol handset claim 1 , a Voice over Internet Protocol controller claim 1 , a switch box claim 1 , or a dedicated black box ...

A wireless communication device and a method of re-establishing a connection with a WPAN master device is presented. The method includes detecting that a first master station of a WPAN session which includes the first master device and one or more stations becomes unavailable, activating a master station application to become a second master station and sending one beacon to notify the stations of the session about the second master station connectivity parameters. 115.-. (canceled)16. A method of re-establishing an association by a station capable to become a master station of a wireless personal area network (WPAN) , the method comprising:detecting by the station, which is associated with a WPAN association, that an active master station of the WPAN association leaves the association;deciding if to become the new master station according to a service set identifier (SSID) and a session ID;becoming the new master station and sending one or more beacons that include a WPAN capabilities information element (IE) to notify one or more stations of the association about the new master station connectivity parameters, wherein the WPAN capabilities IE includes the SSID and the session ID; andcreating a WPAN session with the one or more stations of the association.17. The method of comprising:receiving a connection request signal from the one or more stations of the association in order to reestablish a connection with one or more stations of the association.18. The method of comprising:becoming the new master station if no other master station is operating on the association.19. The method of claim 16 , wherein deciding comprises:deciding to permit one of the one or more other stations to become the new master station of the association.20. The method of comprising:becoming a client by disconnecting from the association; andestablishing a connection with the new master station as the client.21. The method of comprising:triggering the one or more stations of the association ...
