Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Systems and methods provide a single E.164 number for voice and data call redirection and telephony services such as caller identification, regardless of in which type of network a dual mode mobile device operates. When the dual mode device registers and is active in a GSM network, temporary routing and status updates are triggered and resultant information is maintained in both networks. A mobile terminated call is routed through an enterprise WLAN with call control within the enterprise being handled by SIP or H.323 signaling, and the call is redirected to the mobile device in the GSM network, where call control is assumed by the SS7 network. Services are provided using the protocols native to the active network, and the single E.164 is used consistently along with or lieu of the temporary routing information for subscriber identity specific functions, such as caller identification and voice mail.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for routing incoming calls directed to a dual-mode device, the method comprising: updating a database in a VoIP based wireless local area network with routing information of the dual mode device in a wireless telecommunication network; wherein the dual-mode device is identified by a single dialable address that is functional in either network, the single dialable address being mapped to a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) address; in response to…
