A method for realizing an Internet protocol (IP) multimedia subsystem (IMS) disaster tolerance includes the steps as follows. An S-CSCF receives a user registration, and backs up necessary data which is required when a user service processing is restored on a storage entity in a network. An I-CSCF of user's home domain receives a service request of the user, and if it is found that the S-CSCF currently providing a service for the user fails, assigns a new S-CSCF to the user, and forwards the service request to the newly assigned S-CSCF. The newly assigned S-CSCF interrogates and acquires subscription data of the user and the necessary data backed up by the original S-CSCF from the storage entity, and then restores the user service processing according to the subscription data and the backup data. A device for realizing an IMS disaster tolerance is also provided.

Methods and Apparatus in a Telecommunications Network

Номер: US20120083265A1
Автор: Rogier August Caspar Joseph Noldus
Принадлежит: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson AB

A method in a switching node of a circuit-switched telecommunications network comprises the steps of receiving from a packet-switched telecommunications network a request to establish a call towards a mobile station of the circuit-switched telecommunications network, and sending a request message to a location register for an instruction comprising one or more parameters for allowing the continuation of the establishment of the call to the mobile station. Upon receiving the one or more parameters from the location register, at least one of the one or more parameters is used to establish the call towards the mobile station. Furthermore, at least one of the one or more parameters is sent to the packet-switched telecommunications network. The at least one or more parameters sent to the packet-switched telecommunications network relates to the location of the mobile station. Therefore, entities within a packet-switched telecommunications network (e.g. an IMS network) that handle the terminating call for a call that is delivered to circuit-switched telecommunications network access (e.g. GSM), receive location information related to the connected party, i.e. the party (mobile terminal) receiving the call.

Автор: Zhengxiong Lei
Принадлежит: Alcatel Lucent SAS

The invention proposes a method and an apparatus for reducing break duration in handover of a VoIP conversation from a packet switch domain to a circuit switch domain. The main idea is that a synchronization mechanism is introduced between the session handover procedure at IP multimedia subsystem IMS layer and a cell handover procedure at layer 2 , so that enable the two handover procedures to start at or almost at the same time. When a Mobile Switching Centre MSC server receives a request of handover from the source Mobility Management Entity MME, the time required from the time the MSC server transmitting a message to this message arriving at a remote end user equipment UE is computed first, and then is compared with a predetermined time required from the time the MSC server transmitting a message to this message arriving at the local UE. According to the comparison result, determining an order and time for the MSC server transmitting a request of session handover to the Service Centralization and Continuity Application Server (SCC AS) and transmitting a request of cell handover to the source MME, and transmitting above two requests in according to the order and time, to ensure that the time that the request of session handover arrives at the remote end communication terminal is the same or almost same as the time that the request of cell handover arrives at the local communication terminal.

A computer-implemented method for authorizing access by a user device to at least one service offered over an Internet Protocol (IP) network is provided. A server receives a message from the user device. The message indicates that the user device is configured to support the at least one service. The server then retrieves from a database policy data associated with the user device. The server validates based on the policy data that the user device is authorized to advertise the at least one service and the at least one service is available for access by the user device. If the at least one service is unauthorized or unavailable for access by the user device, the server modifies the message to indicate one or more authorized and available services for the user device without including the at least one service.

Communication networks and associated methods are disclosed that provide third party charging for SIP sessions. A communication network of the invention comprises a session control function (e.g., an IMS CSCF), a network node (e.g., an IMS application server), and a charging system. The session control function serves a SIP session initiated between a first and second party. The network node identifies a third party to charge for the session. The network node includes a third party identifier for the third party in a SIP message for the session, and transmits the SIP message to the session control function. The session control function generates a charging message, maps the third party identifier to the charging message, and transmits the charging message that includes the third party identifier to the charging system. The charging system then initiates charging of the session to the third party based on the third party identifier.

MPLS has been deployed in most backbone networks. MPLS provides capabilities such as Quality of Service (QoS), redundancy, Operations Administration and Maintenance (OAM), and Virtual Private Network (VPN). MPLS is typically used to provision and manage data streams at individual flow levels. Each flow is known as a Label Switched Path (LSP).

A logically centralized system or service, such as a cloud-based content management service, enables intelligent communication between disparate devices. Such communication enables content such as applications and data to be synchronized between various devices, where the synchronization takes into account the capabilities of each device to provide versions and/or formats of that content that are appropriate for each device. A user purchasing an additional device, for example, can have various applications and other content automatically installed or copied over to the additional device, but with versions or formats that take advantage of, and are appropriate for, the capabilities of that additional device. Further, the intelligent communication via a logically centralized service can enable such devices to interact even though those devices might utilize different protocols and/or formats, and might otherwise not be able to communicate or have ever have been tested together. 1.

A system and method for a resilient and self-recovery IP multimedia subsystem. In response to a subscriber who is registered with a first S-CSCF, a second S-CSCF is established as well and a flag is provided to a database. The database stores data for the session. The second S-CSCF is concurrent and separate from the first S-CSCF. In addition, the restoration data element in the first S-CSCF is deactivated. When the first S-CSCF is timed-out or fail to respond, instead of sending a restoration data, the second S-CSCF activates the flag with the database so that the second S-CSCF may establish with the database to continue with the session for the subscriber. The database identifies the session and restores the session data for the second S-CSCF.
