SYSTEM FOR APPLICATION SERVER AUTONOMOUS ACCESS ACROSS DIFFERENT TYPES OF ACCESS TECHNOLOGY NETWORKS

摘要

An Application Server Autonomous Access (ASAA) system for providing autonomous access to a wireless infrastructure by devices employing different types of access technology. The system includes a server, having an associated data storage device, for storing at least one policy, and a plurality of subnetworks, coupled to server, provide access to the server. The plurality of subnetworks employ at least two different types of access technology. A plurality of wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) are wirelessly coupled to at least one of the sub-networks. The server monitors the wireless coupling and, depending upon the at least one policy, switches the WTRU between different ones of the subnetworks.
