Abstract
A method of controlling packet switched data transmission functionality for a mobile device in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method comprises disabling the packet switched data transmission functionality, and being allowed to initiate a telephony service via a circuit switched fallback functionality or via an internet protocol multimedia subsystem signaling even when the packet switched data transmission functionality is disabled.
Claims18
A method of controlling packet switched data transmission functionality for a mobile device in a long term evolution (LTE) system, the method comprising:
- disabling the packet switched data transmission functionality by a microprocessor of the mobile device;
- and
- initiating an internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) call to a network of the LTE system by the microprocessor even when the packet switched data transmission functionality is disabled and the mobile device is in the LTE system, such that the mobile device is allowed to transmit packet switched data for the IMS call.
A mobile device of a long term evolution (LTE) system for controlling packet switched data transmission functionality comprising:
- a microprocessor for executing a program;
- and
- a storage unit coupled to the microprocessor for storing the program;
- wherein the program instructs the microprocessor to perform the following steps:
- disabling the packet switched data transmission functionality;
- and
- initiating an internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) call to a network of the LTE system even when the packet switched data transmission functionality is disabled and the mobile device is in the LTE system, such that the mobile device is allowed to transmit packet switched data for the IMS call.
