Method, system and apparatus for using IMS communication service identifier
View Patent ↗A method, system and apparatus for using an IMS communication service identifier is provided. The method includes getting, by an HSS, arrival of information related to a user subscribed IMS communication service identifier, and sending information of a user subscribed IMS communication service identifier to a SID-requiring network entity according to the information related to the user subscribed IMS communication service.
1. A method for using an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) communication service identifier, comprising:
getting, by a home location register home subscriber service (HSS), arrival of information related to a user subscribed IMS communication service identifier; and
sending, by the HSS, information of a user subscribed IMS communication service identifier to a Service Identifier (SID)-requiring network entity according to the information related to the user subscribed IMS communication service identifier;
wherein the SID-requiring network entity is a Serving Call Session Control Function (S-CSCF);
the HSS determines arrival of the information related to the user subscribed IMS communication service identifier upon reception of a message requesting for downloading a user service profile from the S-CSCF; and
the HSS sends a response message of the message requesting for downloading the user service profile to the S-CSCF, wherein the information of the user subscribed IMS communication service identifier is contained in the response message.
2. A method for using an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) communication service identifier, comprising:
getting, by a home location register home subscriber service (HSS), arrival of information related to a user subscribed IMS communication service identifier; and
sending, by the HSS, information of a user subscribed IMS communication service identifier to a Service Identifier (SID)-requiring network entity according to the information related to the user subscribed IMS communication service identifier;
wherein the SID-requiring network entity is an application server;
the HSS determines arrival of the information related to the user subscribed IMS communication service identifier upon reception of a message requesting for an inquiry from the application server; and
the HSS sends a response message to the application server; wherein the information of the user subscribed IMS communication service identifier is contained in the response message.
3. A system for using an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) communication service identifier, comprising:
a home location register home subscriber service (HSS), configured to get arrival of information related to a user subscribed IMS communication service identifier and to send information of the user subscribed IMS communication service identifier to a Service Identifier (SID)-requiring network entity according to the information related to the user subscribed IMS communication service identifier; and
the SID-requiring network entity is configured to receive the information of the IMS communication service identifier sent from the HSS;
wherein the SID-requiring network entity is a Serving Call Session Control Function (S-CSCF);
the S-CSCF sends to the HSS a message requesting for downloading a user service profile; and
the HSS determines arrival of the information related to the user subscribed IMS communication service identifier upon reception of the message requesting for downloading the user service profile, sends a response message of the message requesting for downloading the user service profile to the S-CSCF, wherein the information of the user subscribed IMS communication service identifier is contained in the response message.
4. A serving call session control function entity, comprising:
a receiving module configured to receive information of an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) communication service identifier sent from a network side;
a storage module configured to store the information of the IMS communication service identifier; and
an updating module configured to update data stored by the storage module using the information of the IMS communication service identifier received by the receiving module;
further comprising an authorization checking module configured to perform an IMS communication service authorization check for a session using the information of the IMS communication service identifier currently stored by the storage module during setting up the session.
