Combined base transceiver station and base station controller optimized assignment of frame offsets

1. A method, comprising:

sending a session identification from a call agent (CA) to a basestation (BS);

wherein the session identification includes a local session identification and a remote session identification; and

starting a timer upon failure of a transport layer;

if the timer expires, changing the local session identification if the BS has already released an existing call.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the new connection is established between a redundant CA and the BS.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the local session identification and the remote session identification are shared between an active processor in the BS.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the local session identification and the remote session identification are shared between a standby processor in the BS.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the session identification is stored in a session initiation message sent between the BS and the CA.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the session identification is used to check a status between the BS and the CA.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the session identification is acquired to guarantee a return of a different session identification on a sequential restart.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the different session identification alerts the BS or the CA that a new call is to be processed.

9. The method of claim 7 , wherein utilizing a just used session identification would allow the BS or the CA to continue processing a previous call.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein until the session identification is issued, the BS should not send any application messages.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein until the session identification is issued, the CA should not send any application messages.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the local session identification and the remote session identification are shared between an active processor in the CA.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the local session identification and the remote session identification are shared between a standby processor in the CA.

14. The method of claim 1 , comprising acquiring another session identification by the BS.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the session identification message is the same as the another session identification message.

16. The method of claim 15 comprising continuing to process an existing call by the BS.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the existing call is processed by the BS when the other session identification message is received.

18. The method of claim 5 , wherein the session initiation message includes at least one of: a length, a message type, and a local session identification.

19. A system, comprising:

a first module; and

a second module;

wherein a session identification is sent from the second module to the first module;

wherein the session identifications include a local session identification and a remote session identification;

wherein a timer is started upon failure of a transport layer;

if the timer expires, the first session identification is changed if the first module has already released an existing call.

20. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions for:

sending a session identification from a call agent (CA) to a basestation (BS);

wherein the session identification includes a local session identification and a remote session identification; and

starting a timer upon failure of a transport layer;

if the timer expires, changing the local session identification if the BS has already released an existing call.
