Mobile communication method and mobile communication system
A mobile communication method according to the present invention includes the steps of: sending “INVITE” from a UE#1 to a P-CSCF/VATF in a visited network of the UE#1; sending “INVITE” from the P-CSCF/VATF to an IMS; and allocating, by the P-CSCF/VATF, an MGW#1 to the path for voice communications.
1. A mobile communication method in a mobile communication system for Single Radio Voice Call Continuity (SRVCC) including a first radio access network that does not support circuit-switched communications, a second radio access network that supports the circuit-switched communications, and a gateway within a serving network of a first mobile station for switching a path for voice communications between the first mobile station and a second mobile station, from a path through the first radio access network to a path through the second radio access network, the mobile communication method comprising:
sending, by the first mobile station, a registration request to a control node within the serving network of the first mobile station;
sending, by the control node, the registration request to a Service Centralization and Continuity Application Server (SCC AS);
sending, by the SCC AS, a registration response to the control node;
sending, by the control node, the registration response to the first mobile station;
sending, by the first mobile station, an “INVITE” signal to the control node; and
determining, by the control node, whether to anchor the path based on SRVCC capability of the first mobile station.
2. A mobile communication system for Single Radio Voice Call Continuity (SRVCC), the mobile communication system comprising:
a first radio access network that does not support circuit-switched communications,
a second radio access network that supports the circuit-switched communications, and
a gateway within a serving network of a first mobile station for switching a path for voice communications between the first mobile station and a second mobile station, from a path through the first radio access network to a path through the second radio access network, wherein
the first mobile station sends a registration request to a control node within the serving network of the first mobile station;
the control node sends the registration request to a Service Centralization and Continuity Application Server (SCC AS);
the SCC AS sends a registration response to the control node;
the control node sends the registration response to the first mobile station;
the first mobile station sends an “INVITE” signal to the control node; and
the control node determines whether to anchor the path based on SRVCC capability of the first mobile station.
3. A communication method for a mobile station comprising:
transmitting a registration request to a control node within a serving network of the mobile station;
receiving a registration response from a Service Centralization and Continuity Application Server (SCC AS) through the control node;
transmitting an “INVITE” signal to the control node; and
controlling the voice communication so that the control node determines whether to anchor a path for voice communication between the mobile station and a communication partner of the mobile station in a gateway with in the serving network of the mobile station for switching the path from a path through the first radio access network to a path through the second radio access network, for Single Radio Call Continuity (SRVCC), based on SRVCC capability of the mobile station.
4. A mobile station comprising:
a memory storing instructions; and
at least one processor configured to process the instructions to:
transmit a registration request to a control node within a serving network of the mobile station;
receive a registration response from a Service Centralization and Continuity Application Server (SCC AS) through the control node;
transmit an “INVITE” signal to the control node; and
control the voice communication so that the control node determines whether to anchor a path for voice communication between the mobile station and a communication partner of the mobile station in a gateway with in the serving network of the mobile station for switching the path from a path through the first radio access network to a path through the second radio access network, for Single Radio Call Continuity (SRVCC), based on SRVCC capability of the mobile station.
5. A mobile communication method in a mobile communication system for Single Radio Voice Call Continuity (SRVCC) including a first radio access network that does not support circuit-switched communications, a second radio access network that supports the circuit-switched communications, and a gateway within a serving network of a first mobile station for switching a path for voice communications between the first mobile station and a second mobile station, from a path through the first radio access network, to a path through the second radio access network, the mobile communication method comprising the steps of:
sending, by the first mobile station, a registration request to a control node within the serving network of the first mobile station;
sending, by the control node, the registration request to a Service Centralization and Continuity Application Server (SCC AS);
sending, by the SCC AS, a registration response to the control node;
sending, by the control node, the registration response to the first mobile station;
sending, by the first mobile station, an “INVITE” signal to the control node; and
determining, by the control node, whether to allocate a resource of the gateway based on SRVCC capability of the first mobile station.
6. A communication method for a mobile station in a mobile communication system for Single Radio Voice Call Continuity (SRVCC) including a first radio access network that does not support circuit-switched communications, a second radio access network that supports the circuit-switched communications, and a gateway within a serving network of the mobile station for switching a path for voice communications between the mobile station and a communication partner of the mobile station, from a path through the first radio access network, to a path through the second radio access network, the communication method comprising:
transmitting, by the first mobile station, a registration request to a control node within the serving network of the first mobile station;
transmitting, by the control node, the registration request to a Service Centralization and Continuity Application Server (SCC AS);
transmitting, by the SCC AS, a registration response to the control node;
transmitting, by the control node, the registration response to the first mobile station;
transmitting an “INVITE” signal to the control node; and
controlling the voice communication so that the control node determines whether to allocate a resource of the gateway based on SRVCC capability of the mobile station.
7. A mobile communication method for a mobile station comprising:
transmitting a registration request to a control node within a serving network of the mobile station;
receiving a registration response from a Service Centralization and Continuity Application Server (SCC AS) through the control node;
