Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method of Inter-User Equipment (UE) Transfer (IUT) for use in a Home enhanced-Node B (H(e)NB), the method comprising receiving a transfer command from a first IMS capable WTRU via IMS signaling, translating the transfer command to a non-IMS based message, and transmitting the translated non-IMS based message to a Service Centralization and Continuity Application Server (SCC AS).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of Inter-User Equipment (UE) Transfer (IUT) for use in a Home enhanced-Node B (H(e)NB), the method comprising: receiving, at an H(e)NB Internet Protocol (IP) client in the H(e)NB, an IUT session transfer command via IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) signaling from an IMS network, wherein the received IUT session transfer command requests an IUT to transition an IMS session that is initially between an IMS-capable wireless transfer/receive unit (WTRU) an…
