Abstract: The present application discloses a system of at least a network element and at least a terminal. The system constituents are configured to provide assistance by the terminal to the network element in terms of access domain selection for at least one of the media channel and the session control channel of an incoming call to the terminal. In this regard, the terminal acquires information about the capabilities of an access network in which the terminal is camping. Upon receiving, at the terminal, an invitation to participate in a call, the terminal analyzes the acquired information about the capabilities of the access network, and optionally or additionally of the IMS network. The terminal responds to the invitation, based on the result of the analyzing, with an indication that indicates a respective access domain to be used for at least one of the media channel and the session control channel of the incoming call.

Abstract: A method and exchange unit in a telecommunication system for differentiated treatment of calling subscribers special calls includes separating from normal calls according to information contained in the dialed number, i.e., the routing number. If the call is determined to be a special call, the routing number is modified by adding a new digit string to the routing number depending on a subscriber associated parameter. The modified number is then evaluated for further treatment of the call.
