摘要： Determining if non-voice emergency services (NOVES) are available is accomplished via an indicator provided via a control channel and/or via a query to a network entity. For example, a NOVES indicator can be provided, via a control channel message, to a communications device, indicating whether non-voice emergency services (NOVES) are available or not available. Additionally, capabilities of public safety answering points (PSAPs) providing NOVES can be included. For example, the indicator can include information as to whether an identified PSAP can receive a text based emergency message, an emergency message comprising a image, and emergency message comprising audio, and/or an emergency message comprising video. In another example configuration, a communications device can query a communications network to determine the availability of NOVES and PSAP capabilities. A response to the query can include an indication as to whether non-voice services are available, and, if appropriate, the types of NOVES services available.

摘要翻译： 确定非语音紧急服务（NOVES）是否可用通过经由控制信道提供的指示符和/或经由查询向网络实体提供。 例如，NOVES指示符可以经由控制信道消息提供给通信设备，指示非语音紧急服务（NOVES）是否可用或不可用。 此外，可以包括提供NOVES的公共安全应答点（PSAP）的能力。 例如，指示符可以包括关于所识别的PSAP是否可以接收基于文本的紧急消息，包括图像的紧急消息以及包括音频的紧急消息的信息，和/或包括视频的紧急消息。 在另一示例配置中，通信设备可以查询通信网络以确定NOVES和PSAP能力的可用性。 对查询的响应可以包括关于非语音服务是否可用的指示，以及如果适当的话，可用的NOVES服务的类型。
