Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method of establishing a circuit switched, CS, call to a mobile subscriber of a CS network, wherein the mobile subscriber includes an instant communication client which is adapted to communicate via an instant messaging protocol with an instant communication server. The instant communication server is associated to a hosting switching node of the CS network. A switching node of the CS network receives a CS setup message for terminating a CS call. A switching node of the CS network detects that the mobile subscriber is not reachable over the CS network. The CS setup message is routed to the hosting switching node. A message converter associated to the hosting switching node converts the CS setup message into a converted setup message according to the instant messaging protocol. The instant communication server forwards the converted setup message to the instant communication client.

Abstract: The present invention proposes a solution for providing IMS services to users having circuit-switched controlled terminals being not adapted to provide IMS services to the users. In particular, it is proposed, in order to allow IMS to take the full call and service control, to place a user agent being responsible for the user ported to the IMS in a new node type called Mobile Access Gateway Control Function (MAGCF). This new node combines the logical functionality of a cellular switching center and the logical functionality of IMS. The invention discusses a concept of a static MAGCF being deployed in a network and being assigned for handling a user.
