Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, an apparatus, and a system for data transmission. A network device receives a first multicast protocol packet sent by a network virtualization edge, NVE, for joining a multicast group, obtains first information, establishes an NVE interface of the multicast group according to the first information, and determines second information according to the first information, wherein the first information comprises a correspondence between each NVE connected to the network device and a multicast group to which each NVE belongs, and the second information comprises each multicast group in which the network device is involved; and sends the second information to a NVO3 manager, so that the NVO3 manager establishes a unicast tunnel interface of the multicast group between the network device and the at least one another network device according to the second information.

The present invention provides a method for continuation of multimedia playback, comprising receiving a radio broadcast comprising audio and/or video content at a first mobile electronic device, playing back said content, accessing a data connection, searching for a source of said content provided via said data connection, and stopping playback of said content from said radio broadcast and starting playback of said content from said source if at least one source is found. The switching to another content source can also be performed in the opposite direction. The invention also provides devices for performing the multimedia playback continuation method.

A transmitting system and a method of transmitting digital broadcast signal are provided. The method of transmitting digital broadcasting signal in a transmitter includes multiplexing mobile data and main data, transmitting a transmission frame including the multiplexed mobile and main data, where a parade of data group is transmitted during slots, where each slot includes specified number of mobile data packets, a first scalable number of mobile data packets, and a second scalable number of main data packets, where the data group including a plurality of regions and the fifth region of the plurality of regions includes the first scalable number of mobile data packets, and where the data group is assigned to one of the slots in such a manner that slots of consecutive slot number carry data groups of inconsecutive group number.

Provided is a game apparatus which stores, in an outbox for individual-transmission data, individual-transmission data the destinations of which are individually specified, and stores, in an outbox for universal-transmission data, universal-transmission data the destinations of which are all terminals. A plurality of pieces of data is stored in the outbox for individual-transmission data, and information regarding the destination thereof and the information regarding the source thereof are added to each piece of data. When the outbox for individual-transmission data is full, all data stored in the outbox is retrieved, and one frame which includes the plurality of pieces of data is generated and transmitted.

An audio/video (A/V) hub that determines an environment of a portable electronic device is described. In particular, the A/V hub may identify the environment based on performance information about communication between the portable electronic device and receiver devices (which was received from the receiver devices), and a history of behavior of an individual associated with the portable electronic device and the A/V hub. Alternatively, the A/V hub may identify the environment based on performance information about communication between the portable electronic device and the A/V hub and the portable electronic device and another A/V hub (which was received from the portable electronic device and/or the other A/V hub), and a history of behavior of an individual associated with the portable electronic device and the A/V hub. Based on the determination, the A/V hub provides an instruction to power on an A/V display device in the environment.

A method and apparatus for focused communication is disclosed. The method includes a base transmitter array in communication with at least one client device at the same frequency. The base transmitter array provides a focused data communication to the client device.

The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. More specifically, a method for enabling a terminal to receive control information in a wireless communications system according to the present invention includes the steps of: constituting PCell and SCell; and monitoring a plurality of expected channels in a search space to receive the control information from a sub-frame #n in SCell, wherein if the sub-frame #n is included in a particular sub-frame set, the search space includes CSS, or if the sub-frame #n is not included in the particular sub-frame set, the search space includes only USS.

Techniques may include mapping, by a service node, a first virtual address for a particular service to private addresses that identify servers, wherein each server provides the particular service, and wherein a URL for the service resolves to the first virtual address. The techniques may include configuring a service load balancer of the service node to load balance network traffic for the first virtual address across the servers and forwarding network traffic for the first virtual address between the servers and subscriber devices. The techniques may include, associating a second virtual address with a subset of the private addresses that excludes the private address for the at least one server, and causing the URL to resolve to the second virtual address. The techniques may include forwarding network traffic for the first virtual address between the servers and the subset of the subscriber devices.

The present specification provides a method and an apparatus for a terminal to maintain continuity of multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS) service in a multicast broadcast single frequency network (MBSFN) service boundary area. The terminal receives, from a first cell, an MBMS cell list including information about an MBSFN area. The first cell is a cell where the terminal provides the MBMS service via an MBMS bearer. The terminal performs the MBMS service via a unicast bearer of a second cell on the basis of the received MBMS cell list.
