RADIO EFFICIENT TCP RELEASE

摘要

A radio communication handling device handling communication for an application running in a mobile station (10) and communicating with an application server via a mobile communication network comprises a radio resource determination unit (24) that determines a state transition for the radio resources between the mobile station and the mobile communication network from a first current state to a second state, where the first state involves communication with a higher bandwidth than the second state, and informs, prior to the transition, at least one application communication control unit (28) about the transition in order to allow the application communication control unit to release unused application communication connections before the transition. The application communication control unit (26) receives the information about the following state transition and determines whether to release an application communication connection or not based on the information.
