摘要:
In a mobile network with a plurality of access networks, a control node which is controlling access of a user equipment to that one of the access networks which is currently used by the user equipment determines an access capability of the user equipment in said access network, e.g. support of voice communication over packet switched access. The control node provides an indication of the determined access capability to a subscriber database associated with the user equipment. The indication may then be retrieved from the subscriber database and be used to control termination of a connection to the user equipment.

Techniques and apparatus are described for controlling set up of a terminating call from an IMS to a UE, in a Circuit Switched Fallback (CSFB) situation. A first MSC receives a terminating call from IMS and tries to page the UE. The UE has moved to the second MSC and performs a Location Update to the second MSC. The second MSC informs the first MSC with a Send Identification message comprising an address of the second MSC. The first MSC maintains the IMS subscription of the UE at Cancel Location and forwards the terminating call to the second MSC. The first MSC acts as relay for subsequent call control messages for calls of the UE. The first and second MSCs are supervising the ongoing calls and as soon as all calls are completed the second MSC registers the UE into IMS and the first MSC de-registers the UE from IMS.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for allocating an identifier to a terminal in a communications network. A core network controlling node, such as a Mobility Management Entity (MME) receives an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) and an International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) from the terminal. Subscription information is determined using both the IMSI and the IMEI. A temporary identifier that can be used to identify the terminal is then allocated to the subscription information.

The invention refers to a method of providing a certain communication service with respect to a user equipment —UE (10) in a cellular communications network, the communications network comprising a radio access network—RAN-node (12) and a plurality of cells, wherein at least a first cell of the plurality of cells is capable of supporting the certain service, and at least a second of the plurality of cells is not capable of supporting the certain service, and a core network—CN-node (14) involved in a bearer activation process with respect to the UE (10), the radio access network node (12) performing receiving an information indicative of that the UE (10) requests the certain service, while the UE (10) is camping on the second cell, and initiating a movement to the first cell. The invention further refers to a radio access node (14), a computer program loadable into the radio access node.

The invention relates to methods and nodes for supporting a session transfer, for a user equipment, from a circuit switched network to a packets witched network. According to one aspect a method for operating a control node of a core network is provided. The method comprises the steps: requesting from a radio access network of the circuit switched network information on whether a capability of the user equipment related to the session transfer are compatible with a network configuration related to the session transfer; receiving from the radio access network an indication whether the capability of the user equipment and the network configuration are compatible; determining whether to indicate that the session transfer is supported by using the received compatibility indication; and setting an indication whether the session transfer is supported according to the determination.
摘要:
A solution is presented that includes a method of performing a Single Radio Voice Call Continuity, SRVCC, handover of a telecommunications call established by a User Equipment, UE accessing a serving network using a Packet Switched, PS, access. The serving network includes a serving IMS network and the call is a UE-undetected emergency call anchored in the serving IMS network. The method includes receiving an indication from the serving network that the established call is a UE-undetected emergency call anchored in the serving IMS network. A SRVCC handover request to hand over the call from the PS access to a Circuit Switched, CS, access is received. Handover of the call is initiated so that an Emergency Session Transfer Number-Single Radio, E-STN-SR, is used and the call continues to be routed through the IMS network in which it is anchored.

A method of anchoring a packet switched session of a subscriber comprises receiving a packet switched request for a session setup, and anchoring the packet switched session in a control node (MSC-S) of a visited network of the subscriber.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for transferring a session from a packet switched access network to a circuit switched access network. A Mobility Management Entity receives a service type indicator from a gateway node. The service type indicator indicates a type of service for the session, and is associated with bearers used for the session. The Mobility Management Entity subsequently receives, from an eNodeB, an indication that the session is to be transferred from the packet switched network to the circuit switched access network. The Mobility Management Entity determines the bearers associated with the session using the service type indicator, and initiates transfer of the session using those bearers. This ensures that the correct bearers are transferred regardless of whether or not identifiers such as QCI values have been ascribed to other types of service.
摘要:
A method in a first network node handles data sessions in a communications network. The method includes receiving information indicating a second data session entering the communications network. The method further includes creating a second rule associated with the second data session. The second rule causes the first data session to be associated with the second data session. The method further includes determining that the second rule share a guaranteed bit rate (GBR) with a first rule associated with the first data session based on the second data session entering the communications network. The method further includes transmitting first information that the second rule and an indicator indicating the first rule and the second rule should share the GBR.
