Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The application relates to SMS over LTE radio access. Several alternatives are already known, such as specified in 3GPP TS 24.247 which supports text messaging capabilities and 3GPP 23.204 which supports all existing SMS capabilities through SMS encapsulation in IP. Furthermore, 3GPP 23.272 which relates to SMS in CS fallback. A further technique is known as Generic Access Network which is under study in 3GPP 23.879 relating to CS domain services over evolved PS access and in Voice Over LTE VOLGA. The present application provides a solution for handling messages between legacy networks in the form of circuit-switched networks and IP network architecture in the form of an IP Multimedia Subsystem IMS while minimizing the efforts needed for system integration by maximal reuse of existing functionalities. This is achieved by an entity ( 100 ) which adapts messages received from the IMS ( 50 ) in such a way that the appear to a controller entity ( 200 ) providing conventional short message functionalities as if they have been received from a mobile terminal accessing a radio access network through a radio network interface of a circuit-switched network ( 40 ).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A network entity for handling messages in a communications network, the network entity comprising: a controller circuit configured to: provide short message functionality associated with communicating short messages according to a radio network interface of a circuit switched network, wherein the radio network interface comprises an interface disposed between a radio access network node and a core network node, and is configured to communicate with th…
