The invention relates to a method and system for establishing an emergency session in a communication system which includes at least one user equipment and one or more network entities involved in establishing an emergency session. When the user equipment initiates a session by sending a message to a network entity indicating an identifier, e.g. the call number or logical name of a called entity, one of said network entities analyses the received identifier. When detecting that the session to be initiated is an emergency session, an information is returned to the user equipment for informing the latter that the initiated session is an emergency session. The user equipment thereupon initiates the execution of an emergency session. Thus, even when the user equipment is unable to detect, by itself, that the intended session is an emergency session, the network will inform the user equipment on the emergency session for ensuring appropriate handling thereof.
A method for establishing an emergency session in a communication system which includes at least one user equipment and one or more network entities involved in establishing an emergency session, wherein, when said user equipment initiates a session by sending a message to a network entity indicating an identifier of a called entity, one of said network entities analyses the received identifier, and, when detecting that the session to be initiated is an emergency session, an information is sent to the user equipment for informing the user equipment that the initiated session is an emergency session,
A method for establishing an emergency session in a communication system which includes at least one user equipment and at least one call controlling network element involved in establishing an emergency session, wherein, when said user equipment initiates a session by sending a message to the call controlling network element indicating an identifier of a called entity, the call controlling network element analyses the received identifier, and, when detecting that the session to be initiated is an emergency session, an information is returned to the user equipment for informing the user equipment that the initiated session is an emergency session,
A method for establishing an emergency session in a communication system which includes at least one user equipment and at least one call controlling network element involved in establishing an emergency session, wherein, when said user equipment initiates a session by sending a message to the call controlling network element indicating an identifier of a called entity, the call controlling network element analyses the received identifier, and, when detecting that the session to be initiated is an emergency session, an information is returned to the user equipment for informing the user equipment that the initiated session is an emergency session,
