摘要:
An improvements to Handover is provided. User equipment capable of participating in the handover of communications instances from a first radio access network to a second radio access network, the first radio access network being capable of supporting packet switched communications and the second radio access network being capable of supporting circuit switched communications is adapted to participate in a first voice-and-multimedia communications session in said first radio access network, as part of a communications instance, during handover of said communications instance from said first radio access network to said second radio access network, transfer a voice communications session, to continue said communications instance, and responsive to said handover, send a first message to a node of said second radio access network to provide a second voice-and-multimedia communications session in said second radio access network, to further continue said communications instance.
摘要:
A method for identifying whether a selective internet protocol transport opportunity (SIPTO) route is allowed to be used by at least one wireless communication unit comprises, at a core network element: storing subscription profile data associated with the at least one wireless communication unit in a home subscriber server (HSS) database, where the subscription profile data comprises an indication of whether the wireless communication unit has access rights to use a SIPTO route, and generating a SIPTO indicator for informing at least one network element that the at least one wireless communication unit is allowed to use the SIPTO route.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method of establishing a call to or from a user equipment in a wireless communication system comprising a first wireless network and a second wireless network, the second wireless network having an association with the first wireless network, the wireless communication system having a serving node and an application server capable of communication with said serving node, and the method comprising: receiving a message from said serving node at the application server, said message having information regarding network capabilities of said user equipment; and determining at the application server whether to anchor said call in the first wireless network or the second wireless network dependent on said information regarding network capabilities of said user equipment.
摘要:
A method of handover of a User Equipment (UE) from first to second Radio Access Network (RANs), the second RAN coupled to a Mobility Controller (MC) and having an association with the first RAN, the UE capable of communication with a Session Transfer Controller (STC) via the first and second RANs, includes receiving a first message at the MC from the first RAN requesting handover of the UE to the second RAN, sending a second message from the MC to the STC subscribing the MC to status updates from the STC, said status updates relating to status of a call, receiving one of said status updates at the MC originated by the STC, dependent on a communication via the first RAN from the UE to the STC of a change in the status, and in response to receipt of said status update, updating a call status indicator of the MC.
摘要:
In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for providing a short messaging service for a device to enable communication of a short message over an Internet Protocol (IP) network, the device adapted to access a telecommunications system communicatively coupled to the IP network, the IP network comprising one or more network nodes, the method comprising: subscribing to an attachment notification, the attachment notification indicating that the device has attached to the telecommunications system and is contactable for communication, said subscribing being performed by a network element communicatively coupled between the device and the one or more network nodes; receiving, at the network element, the attachment notification when the device has attached to the telecommunications system, the attachment notification comprising identification information for the device; and registering the device with at least one of the one or more network nodes for communication of short messages over the IP network, said registering being performed by the network element based on at least some of the identification information received in the attachment notification.
