Abstract
A method for delivering information on a serving mobile switching centre server for an user equipment between a first communication network and a second communication network. The method includes a step of requesting an attachment of the user equipment to the second communication network by signaling between the user equipment and a network node of the second communication network, the signaling including at least part of information on the mobile switching centre server serving the user equipment in the first communication network. Additionally, an user equipment and a network node implementing the aspects of the method are described.
Claims19
A method for performing a circuit-switched fallback, comprising:
- sending, by a user equipment to a network node residing in a first communication network, information indicating an identity of a mobile switching center server serving the user equipment in a second communication network;
- and
- receiving by the user equipment, in a fallback situation, a fallback service from the second communication network via the mobile switching center server selected by the network node based on the sent identity of the mobile switching center server.
A user equipment, comprising:
- a memory that stores a set of instructions;
- and
- one or more processors configured to execute the set of instructions to cause the user equipment to:
- send, to a network node residing in a first communication network, information indicating an identity of a mobile switching center server
- serving the user equipment in a second communication network;
- and
- receive, in a fallback situation, a fallback service from the second communication network via the mobile switching center server selected by the network node based on the sent identity of the mobile switching center server.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein instructions that are executable by one or more processors of a user equipment to cause the user equipment to perform a method for selecting a mobile switching center server, the method comprising:
- sending, by the user equipment to a network node residing in a first communication network, information indicating an identity of the mobile switching center server serving the user equipment in a second communication network;
- and
- receiving by the user equipment, in a fallback situation, a fallback service from the second communication network via the mobile switching center server selected by the network node based on the sent identity of the mobile switching center server.
