Abstract
A system, method, and computer readable medium for processing a call setup in a network system are provided. A femtocell system receives a call origination from a user equipment located within a service area of the femtocell system and performs a service connection with the user equipment. The femtocell system creates a connection for an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem core network, transmits an INVITE message to a called telephone device via the Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem, and completes the call setup between the user equipment and the called telephone device.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a femtocell system, a call origination from a user equipment performing a calling operation to a called telephone device;
- generating a configuration management service request message and transmitting the configuration management service request message to a session initiation protocol to Internet operating system adapter (SIA);
- responsive to receiving the configuration management service request message, generating a channel assignment request by the SIA and transmitting the channel assignment request to the femtocell system;
- allocating a channel for the user equipment and transmitting the allocated channel to the user equipment;
- receiving an acknowledgement from the user equipment in receipt of the transmitted channel assignment;
- performing, by the femtocell system, a service connection with the user equipment;
- creating, by the femtocell system, a connection for an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem;
- and
- completing a call setup between the user equipment and the called telephone device via the allocated channel.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-executable instructions for execution by a processing system, the computer-executable instructions that:
- receive a call origination from a user equipment performing a calling operation to a called device;
- generate a configuration management service request message and transmit the configuration management service request message to a session initiation protocol to Internet operating system adapter (SIA);
- responsive to receiving the configuration management service request message, generate a channel assignment request by the SIA and transmit the channel assignment request to a femtocell system;
- allocate a channel for the user equipment and transmit the allocated channel to the user equipment;
- receive an acknowledgement from the user equipment in receipt of the transmitted channel assignment;
- perform a service connection with the user equipment;
- create a connection for an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem;
- and
- complete a call setup between the user equipment and the called telephone device via the allocated channel.
A system, comprising:
- a packet-switched network;
- an Internet Protocol Multimedia subsystem communicatively coupled with the packet-switched network;
- and
- a femtocell system communicatively coupled with the packet-switched network, wherein the femtocell system includes a base transceiver station, a transcoder, and a Session Initiation Protocol to Internet Operating System adapter (SIA), wherein the femtocell system is configured to:
- receive a call origination from a user equipment configured to perform a calling operation to a called device;
- generate a configuration management service request message and transmit the configuration management service request message to a session initiation protocol to the SIA;
- responsive to receiving the configuration management service request message, generate a channel assignment request by the SIA and transmit the channel assignment request to the femtocell system;
- allocate a channel for the user equipment and transmit the allocated channel to the user equipment;
- receive an acknowledgement from the user equipment in receipt of the transmitted channel assignment;
- perform a service connection with the user equipment;
- create a connection for the Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem;
- and
- complete the call setup between the user equipment and the called telephone device via the allocated channel.
