Abstract
A system described herein may provide for the prioritization of Session Initiation Protocol (“SIP”) messages, transmitted by a User Equipment (“UE”), based on a priority class indicator included in the SIP messages by the UE. A Universal Integrated Circuit Card (“UICC”) may store information indicating the priority class (e.g., in an Access Control Class (“ACC”) Elementary File (“EF”)). One or more network components, such as a Call Session Control Function (“CSCF”) and/or a Messaging Application Server (“MAS”) may prioritize the SIP message based on the priority class indicator included in the SIP message by the UE.
Claims20
A device, comprising:
- one or more processors configured to:
- generate a Session Initiation Protocol (“SIP”) message, wherein generating the SIP message includes placing a priority class indicator in the SIP message;
- and
- output the SIP message, including the priority class indicator, to a network, wherein one or more components of the network prioritize the SIP message over one or more other SIP messages based on the particular priority class indicator included in the SIP message.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium, storing a plurality of processor-executable instructions to:
- generate a Session Initiation Protocol (“SIP”) message, wherein generating the SIP message includes placing a priority class indicator in the SIP message;
- and
- output the SIP message, including the priority class indicator, to a network, wherein one or more components of the network prioritize the SIP message over one or more other SIP messages based on the particular priority class indicator included in the SIP message.
A method, comprising:
- generating a Session Initiation Protocol (“SIP”) message, wherein generating the SIP message includes placing a priority class indicator in the SIP message;
- and
- outputting the SIP message, including the priority class indicator, to a network, wherein one or more components of the network prioritize the SIP message over one or more other SIP messages based on the particular priority class indicator included in the SIP message.
