Abstract

In a user equipment of a wireless communication system, a method for signal transmission and reception may include: sending a request for a Circuit Switched voice network (CS) service to a Gateway Mobile Switching Center (GMSC) to send and receive data to and from a second user equipment; and receiving a call reject response corresponding to the service request from the GMSC, wherein the call reject response is sent by an entity in a core network of the second user equipment. According to an embodiment, it is possible to provide a suitable service to a sender terminal making a CS service request to a receiver terminal having subscribed only to a PS service without increasing network load.

Claims (49)

1. A method for communication of a terminal in a communication system, the method comprising:

identifying a bearer associated with the terminal;

determining whether the bearer associated with the terminal is needed to be deactivated in order to request an emergency bearer;

deactivating the bearer locally, in case that the bearer is needed to be deactivated;

transmitting, to a mobility management entity, a first message comprising information on a status of the bearer, in case that the bearer is deactivated locally; and

transmitting, to the mobility management entity, a second message including an identity of the bearer for requesting a deactivation of the bearer, in case that the bearer is needed to be deactivated and the bearer is not deactivated locally.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first message includes a tracking area update request message.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

transmitting, to the mobility management entity, an attach request message including a request type element indicating that the terminal requests a connectivity to a packet data network for an emergency bearer service; and

establishing the emergency bearer for the emergency bearer service with the mobility management entity.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information on the status of the bearer is set to inactive based on a result of the determination.

5. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the second message includes a bearer resource modification request message or a packet data network (PDN) disconnect request message.

6. A method of a mobility management entity (MME) in a communication system, the method comprising:

identifying a bearer associated with a terminal;

receiving, from the terminal, a first message comprising information on a status of the bearer, in case that the bearer is deactivated locally at the terminal in order to activate an emergency bearer;

identifying that the bearer associated with the terminal is needed to be deactivated in order to activate the emergency bearer based on the information; and

deactivating the bearer, in case that the bearer is needed to be deactivated in order to activate the emergency bearer.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the first message includes a tracking area update request message.

8. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:

receiving, from the terminal, an attach request message including a request type element indicating that the terminal requests a connectivity to a packet data network for an emergency bearer service; and

establishing the emergency bearer for the emergency bearer service with the terminal.

9. The method of claim 6 , wherein the information on the status of the bearer is set to inactive in case that the bearer is needed to be deactivated.

10. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:

receiving, from the terminal, a second message for requesting a deactivation of the bearer, in case that the bearer is needed to be deactivated.

11. A terminal in a communication system, the terminal comprising:

a transceiver configured to transmit and receive at least one signal; and

a controller coupled to the transceiver and configured to:

identify a bearer associated with the terminal,

determine whether the bearer associated with the terminal is needed to be deactivated in order to request an emergency bearer, and

deactivate the bearer locally, in case that the bearer is needed to be deactivated,

transmit, to a mobility management entity, a first message comprising information on a status of the bearer, in case that the bearer is deactivated locally, and

transmit, to the mobility management entity, a second message including an identity of the bearer for requesting a deactivation of the bearer, in case that the bearer is needed to be deactivated and the bearer is not deactivated locally.

12. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein the first message includes a tracking area update request message.

13. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein the controller is further configured to transmit, to the mobility management entity, an attach request message including a request type element indicating that the terminal requests a connectivity to a packet data network for an emergency bearer service, and

establish the emergency bearer for the emergency bearer service with the mobility management entity.

14. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein the information on the status of the bearer is set to inactive based on a result of the determination.

15. The terminal of claim 11 , wherein the second message includes a bearer resource modification request message or a packet data network (PDN) disconnect request message.

16. A mobility management entity (MME) in a communication system, the MME comprising:

a transceiver configured to transmit and receive at least one signal; and

a controller coupled to the transceiver and configured to:

identify a bearer associated with a terminal,

receive, from the terminal, a first message comprising information on a status of the bearer, in case that the bearer is deactivated locally at the terminal in order to activate an emergency bearer,

identify that the bearer associated with the terminal is needed to be deactivated in order to activate the emergency bearer based on the information, and

deactivate the bearer, in case that the bearer is needed to be deactivated in order to activate the emergency bearer.

17. The MME of claim 16 , wherein the first message includes a tracking area update request message.

18. The MME of claim 16 , wherein the controller is further configured to receive, from the terminal, an attach request message including a request type element indicating that the terminal requests a connectivity to a packet data network for an emergency bearer service, and establish the emergency bearer for the emergency bearer service with the terminal.

19. The MME of claim 16 , wherein the information on the status of the bearer is set to inactive in case that the bearer is needed to be deactivated.

20. The MME of claim 16 , wherein the controller is further configured to receive, from the terminal, a second message for requesting a deactivation of the bearer, in case that the bearer is needed to be deactivated.
