  • Publication number: 20080108356
    Abstract: When a network pages the temporary user mobile identifier of a mobile station, the mobile station sends a response to the network. Next, the network checks the authenticity of the user using a ciphering key, corresponding to the temporary user mobile identifier and a random number. If the temporary user mobile identifier is authenticated, a normal incoming call acceptance procedure is executed. If the mobile station is authenticated although the temporary user mobile identifier is wrong, the network reassigns a new temporary user mobile identifier to the mobile station and stops the current communication. In communication, the network and the mobile station mutually notify encipherment-onset time and negotiate about encipherment manner with each other. In addition, diversity handover is commenced upon a call attempt. Furthermore, if a branch replacement is necessary, the current branch is replaced by new branches capable of executing the diversity handover.

  • Publication number: 20060281481
    Abstract: Time required before PoC communication starts, in the case where a communication channel on the destination side has not been established, is shortened, and convenience of users is enhanced. A request for establishing a communication channel used for PoC communication is sent from a terminal TA. Immediately after receiving this request, call processing for establishing a communication channel to a terminal TC other than the terminal TA is started. In parallel with this call processing, processing after sending a response to the request is performed. Thereby, response to a communication channel connection request, SIP Registration processing and Invitation processing on the originating side and the processing on the destination side are performed in parallel, so that connection time can be shortened, and PoC communication can be started early.

  • Patent number: 7062027
    Abstract: An SCP is provided with a pattern notifying unit. The pattern notifying unit is configured so that, on the occasion of providing a service utilizing ISUP interwork between a first leg defined between an originating switching center and a forwarding MSC and a second leg defined between forwarding MSC and a receiving MSC, it notifies the forwarding MSC of an interwork pattern number corresponding to a category of the service. The forwarding MSC according to the present invention performs processes such as “abandon and then generate” and “transmit” to parameters with reference to an interwork pattern corresponding to the interwork pattern number provided.
