Abstract
A method comprising transmitting, by a user equipment (UE) to a network node, a registration message comprising at least one of a first indicator configured to indicate emergency call information display capability, a second indicator configured to indicate language information, or a third indicator configured to indicate a status of previously received emergency information, and receiving, by the user equipment from the network node, a registration accept message.
Claims12
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a network node from a user equipment (UE), a registration request comprising a first indicator configured to indicate emergency call information display capability, wherein the first indicator indicates whether a mobile equipment (ME) domain of the UE is configured to send descriptions of emergency identifiers to a display of the UE, and wherein the registration request further comprises a mobile country code (MCC);
- determining, by the network node, whether the descriptions of emergency identifiers need to be included in a registration accept message;
- in response to determining that the descriptions of emergency identifiers need to be included in a registration accept message, selecting, by the network node, a language to use for transmitting the description of emergency identifiers based on the MCC;
- and
- transmitting, from the network node to the UE, the registration accept message comprising the descriptions of emergency identifiers, wherein the descriptions of emergency identifiers are in the determined language,
- wherein the registration further comprises a third indicator configured to indicate a status of previously received emergency information, and wherein the status of previously received emergency information comprises one or more of:
- the UE has previously stored previously received descriptions of emergency identifiers,
- an indication of the previously received descriptions of emergency identifiers,
- an indication of previously received emergency identifiers, or
- an indication of no previously stored descriptions of emergency identifiers.
A network node comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor, wherein the processor is configured to:
- receive, from a user equipment (UE), a registration request comprising a first indicator configured to indicate emergency call information display capability, wherein the first indicator indicates whether a mobile equipment (ME) domain of the UE is configured to send descriptions of emergency identifiers to a display of the UE, and wherein the registration request further comprises a mobile country code (MCC);
- determine whether the descriptions of emergency identifiers need to be included in a registration accept message;
- in response to determining that the descriptions of emergency identifiers need to be included in a registration accept message, selecting a language to use for transmitting the description of emergency identifiers based on the MCC;
- and
- transmit, to the UE, the registration accept message comprising the descriptions of emergency identifiers, wherein the descriptions of emergency identifiers are in the determined language,
- wherein the registration further comprises a third indicator configured to indicate a status of previously received emergency information, and wherein the status of previously received emergency information comprises one or more of:
- the UE has previously stored previously received descriptions of emergency identifiers,
- an indication of the previously received descriptions of emergency identifiers,
- an indication of previously received emergency identifiers, or
- an indication of no previously stored descriptions of emergency identifiers.
A non-transitory computer readable medium containing instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to:
- receive, from a user equipment (UE), a registration request comprising a first indicator configured to indicate emergency call information display capability, wherein the first indicator indicates whether a mobile equipment (ME) domain of the UE is configured to send descriptions of emergency identifiers to a display of the UE, and wherein the registration request further comprises a mobile country code (MCC);
- determine whether the descriptions of emergency identifiers need to be included in a registration accept message;
- in response to determining that the descriptions of emergency identifiers need to be included in a registration accept message, selecting a language to use for transmitting the description of emergency identifiers based on the MCC;
- and
- transmit, to the UE, the registration accept message comprising the descriptions of emergency identifiers, wherein the descriptions of emergency identifiers are in the determined language,
- wherein the registration further comprises a third indicator configured to indicate a status of previously received emergency information, and wherein the status of previously received emergency information comprises one or more of:
- the UE has previously stored previously received descriptions of emergency identifiers;
- an indication of the previously received descriptions of emergency identifiers;
- an indication of previously received emergency identifiers;
- or
- an indication of no previously stored descriptions of emergency identifiers.
