    Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from improved voice call support. For example, it may be helpful for a user equipment in a first radio access technology that may not support voice calls to initiate a voice call with a second radio access technology. A method includes initiating a voice call between a user equipment to an entity in a second radio access technology cell. The user equipment is located in a first radio access technology cell. The method also includes registering the user equipment with the second radio access technology cell. In addition, the method includes conducting the voice call with the entity via the second radio access technology cell.

    Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from network location reporting. For example, such reporting may be beneficial in the establishment of a multimedia broadcast/multicast service bearer for media traffic delivery from a group communication service application server or other similar device or system. A method can include reporting at least a first set of user equipment location information and at least a second set of user equipment location information from the user equipment to at least one network node for broadcast bearer management. The first set of user equipment location information can include a serving cell identity of the user equipment. The second set of user equipment location information can include at least one identity of at least one network service area for media broadcasting.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus may include determining whether a user equipment is reachable or not. The method may also include determining whether a network should buffer downlink data. The determining whether the network should buffer the downlink data is based on stored context information or by querying an evolved Node B. The method may also include requesting a first network node to buffer the downlink data for a duration. The method may also include informing a second network node if the user equipment is determined to be unreachable. The method may also include informing the second node if the downlink data has been buffered.

    Abstract: Communication systems, such as an evolved packet system, may benefit from various interworking functions. In particular, certain communication systems in which machine type communication devices are deployed may benefit from a machine type communication interworking function in a visited network. A method may comprise receiving, from a network element, a request in a visited machine type communication interworking function. The method may also comprise processing the request in the visited machine type communication interworking function. The method may further comprise sending a response to the network element in response to the request.
