Abstract
A method of replicating a media session in a Service Centralized and Continuity Application Server (SCC AS), the method comprising receiving a collaborative replication session invite request from a second wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), performing authorization of the collaborative replication session invite request, allocating a media resource for a replicated media flow, transmitting a response for the replicated media flow in a media resource function (MRF) to second WTRU, updating an access leg on a first WTRU for the replicated media flow with the MRF, and updating a remote leg for the replicated media flow in the MRF.
Claims16
A method comprising:
- a Service Centralized and Continuity Application Server (SCC AS) establishing a collaborative session control with a first wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), wherein the first WTRU is associated with a first subscription, wherein the first WTRU is receiving a media flow from a remote party;
- the SCC AS receiving, from a second WTRU, a collaborative session request to replicate the media flow to the second WTRU;
- the SCC AS authorizing the received collaborative session request;
- the SCC AS allocating a media resource at a media resource function (MRF) for the media flow;
- the SCC AS transmitting, to the second WTRU, a response for the second WTRU to receive the requested replicated media flow from the MRF;
- the SCC AS updating an access leg on the first WTRU for the first WTRU to then receive the media flow from the MRF;
- and
- the SCC AS updating a remote leg to communicate the replicated media flow to the MRF, wherein, unless the remote party rejects the replication of the media flow, the media flow then flows from the remote party to the MRF, from the MRF to the first WTRU, and from the MRF to the second WTRU.
A Service Centralized and Continuity Application Server (SCC AS) comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- data storage containing instructions executable by the processor for causing the SCC AS to carry out a set of functions, the set of functions comprising:
- establishing a collaborative session control with a first wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), wherein the first WTRU is associated with a first subscription, wherein the first WTRU is receiving a media flow from a remote party;
- receiving, from a second WTRU, a collaborative session request to replicate the media flow to the second WTRU;
- authorizing the received collaborative session request;
- allocating a media resource at a media resource function (MRF) for the media flow;
- transmitting, to the second WTRU, a response for the second WTRU to receive the requested replicated media flow from the MRF;
- updating an access leg on the first WTRU for the first WTRU to then receive the media flow from the MRF;
- and
- updating a remote leg to communicate the replicated media flow to the MRF, wherein, unless the remote party rejects the replication of the media flow, the media flow then flows from the remote party to the MRF, from the MRF to the first WTRU, and from the MRF to the second WTRU.
