Abstract: Proposed is a technique for preparing a roaming operation of a User Equipment (UE) between a home network and at least one visited network. A method aspect being performed in a roaming control entity comprises receiving at least one message related to the roaming operation, determining if a roaming attempt from the home network to the at least one visited network is performed, and, if the determining step is affirmative, requesting, from the home network, information relating to the UE so as to evaluate if the UE has access to the home network. The method aspect being performed in the UE comprises transmitting the at least one message about the roaming attempt, and receiving, responsive to the transmitting, deny or grant of access of the UE to the at least one visited network depending on whether the UE has access to the home network or not.

Abstract: A routing system transfers data packets of real time communication services of a call, and includes a converter receiving media gateway control protocol encoded first control data and processing the first control data to obtain second control data. The system, based on the first control data, allocates a first transport address for a first routing port for incoming data packets, and allocates a second transport address for a second routing port for outgoing data packets. A central control entity controls a central control entity controlled network of forwarding elements, and determines a static pathway through the network of forwarding elements based on the second control data. A first end of the static pathway corresponds to the first routing port and a second end corresponds to the second routing port. The central control entity controls a data plane flow of a stream of the data packets along the static pathway.

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. In particular, it is proposed, in order to allow IMS to take the full call and service control, to combine circuit-switched and packet-based multimedia functionality in a new node type called Mobile Access Gateway Control Function (MAGCF). In particular the present invention provides a method for ensuring that the MAGCF node acts as a roaming anchor point in order to enforce the handling of originating and terminating calls in the IMS.
