Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for collecting and detecting service area (SA) swapping noise in a wireless network including a plurality of SAs serving a plurality of devices. By receiving SA updates from the stationary devices of the plurality of devices changes in SA identifiers of the SA updates associated with each stationary device are detected. For each stationary device, if two or more SAs are detected to have changed for the stationary device, then these SAs are identified as contributing to SA swapping noise. With this in mind, SA transitions between the identified SAs for a non-stationary device of the plurality of devices are not interpreted as movement of the non-stationary device. However, SA transitions for the non-stationary device from these SAs to other SAs not contributing to SA swapping noise are interpreted as a change of location or movement of the non-stationary device.

Abstract: Techniques and apparatus are described for controlling set up of a terminating call from an IMS to a UE, in a Circuit Switched Fallback (CSFB) situation. A first MSC receives a terminating call from IMS and tries to page the UE. The UE has moved to the second MSC and performs a Location Update to the second MSC. The second MSC informs the first MSC with a Send Identification message comprising an address of the second MSC. The first MSC maintains the IMS subscription of the UE at Cancel Location and forwards the terminating call to the second MSC. The first MSC acts as relay for subsequent call control messages for calls of the UE. The first and second MSCs are supervising the ongoing calls and as soon as all calls are completed the second MSC registers the UE into IMS and the first MSC de-registers the UE from IMS.
