A push-to-talk (“PTT”) group call system, for use as, e.g., a public safety wireless network, includes a CDMA-based 1x-EVDO radio access network operably connected to a PTT server over an IP network. The radio access network includes base stations for radio communications with a number of distributed mobile stations. In carrying out wireless communications, the group call system combines IP-based voice and other real-time multimedia services with the 1x-EVDO radio access network's Broadcast Multicast Service. This allows a number of users to receive the same copy of an IP-based media stream for point-to-multipoint, group transmissions. To reduce call setup times, the group call system uses “standing” call groups, which are ongoing group communication channels pre-established between the PTT server and authorized group users. Thus, mobile stations link to one or more standing call groups of interest upon power-up, prior to users speaking.

The invention discloses a method for realizing trunking traffic and a trunking user terminal. The method is realized in a digital trunking communication system based on a time division long term evolution (TD-LTE) technique. In the digital trunking communication system based on the TD-LTE technique, a logical channel and a transmission channel which are used for realizing the trunking traffic arenewly added, wherein the logical channel is a trunking paging control channel (TPCCH) and a trunking traffic channel (TTCH), the transmission channel is a trunking paging transmission channel (TPCH),and identifications and mapping approaches which are used for distinguishing the logical channel from the other logical channels are respectively defined for the TPCCH and the TTCH. Through the TPCCH, paging and control messages, such as the call setup, the call release, the discourse right notice and the like of the trunking traffic, are loaded. Through the TTCH, the data messages of the trunking traffic are loaded. By applying the scheme of the invention, call setup time can be shortened, and resource utilization ratio can be increased.

A method of initiating a set up process for a call between users with reduced set up times using one or more 3G telecommunication networks. The method includes establishing a bearer channel between a first terminal and a second terminal after a call signaling process and determining, at the first terminal, one or more preferences for a call between the first terminal and the second terminal. The one or more preferences are associated with one or more modes of operation for the call. The method also includes determining a mobile level for operations and interleaving the one or more preferences, the mobile level for operations, and one or more media streams. The method further includes transferring the one or more preferences, the mobile level for operations, and the one or more media streams from the first terminal to the second terminal through a portion of a telecommunication network using the bearer channel.

The invention discloses a method for achieving a group calling business. The method is achieved based on a broadband digital trunking communication system which is achieved on the basis of a time division-long term evolution (TD-LTE) technology. As a TD-LTE system uses a full internet protocol (IP)-based and flattened network framework, a base station communicates with a core network directly, accordingly, the time delay of a control plane and a user plane is small, and calling setting time is shortened; and as the TD-LTE technology uses an advanced air interface technology, so that the transmission delay of a wireless network is reduced greatly; in addition, during the setting process of group callings, a signaling message parallel processing mode is used, that is resources are allocated to a calling terminal and a called terminal in parallel, a radio bearer, an S1 bearer and the like are built, and accordingly, the calling setting time is further shortened; and as the TD-LTE system is achieved in a packet domain, smooth backward evolution is facilitated.

A method for delaying network reselection by a wireless communication device following a call failure is provided. The method can include determining an initiation of a voice call while connected to a first network.

The method can additionally include determining an occurrence of a call failure of the voice call. The method can also include, responsive to the call failure, barring reselection to the first network for a threshold barring period.

Various embodiments are described to address the need for providing substantially reduced PTT call setup times and more efficient wireless bandwidth utilization for PTT sessions utilizing an IP-based protocol. The use of non-IP messaging between an originating MS (101) and PCF (131) and a target MS (102) and PCF (132), the use of IP-based messaging between the PCFs, the use of access channel signaling by the originating MS, and the generation of SIP responses by a target PCF on behalf of the target MS are described. Embodiments incorporating some or all of these protocol changes, can provide either, or both, reduced end-to-end call setup time for PTT as it presently exists in IS-2000 systems or reduced bandwidth consumption.

A cellular communication system comprises a core network, a first access network not supporting circuit switched services and a second access network supporting circuit switched services. A user equipment detects that an application using circuit switched communication is initiated and accordingly initiates a reselection from the first to the second access network. The user equipment transmits a location update message to a circuit switch mobile switching centre of the core network which in response notifies a mobility management entity for the first access network that the access network reselection has been initiated. In response to the notification the mobility management entity initiates a change of a routing association from being with the first access network to being with the second access network. The invention may e.g. allow improved circuit switched fallback for a 3rd Generation Partnership Project cellular communication system comprising an access network supporting only packet switched services.

In one illustrative example, a mobile communication device has a wireless transceiver; an antenna coupled to the wireless transceiver; one or more processors coupled to the wireless transceiver; and a power source interface which is adapted to connect with a power source for supplying electrical power to the mobile device. The one or more processors are operative to monitor a quick paging channel of a wireless communication network with use of the wireless transceiver; identify whether a predetermined power source is connected to the power source interface; cause an indication to terminate use of the quick paging channel to be transmitted with the wireless transceiver to the wireless network based on identifying that the predetermined power source is connected to the power source interface; and refrain from monitoring the quick paging channel with the wireless transceiver after sending the indication to the wireless network. In one specific implementation, the mobile device delays for a time period until a message used for registration is sent to the wireless network and provides the indication within this message.

Mobile devices, base stations, and / or relay stations may implement CSFB (circuit switched fallback) operations by using RRC (radio resource control) connection release and / or handover procedures. If the CSFB RAT (radio access technology) target is not well configured, the UE may be informed and provisioned by the NW during a CSFB procedure with the information to return to LTE. Having this information, the UE may perform an autonomous search of LTE cells after the CSFB call release, speeding up return to LTE. To minimize potential call failures during CSFB, the UE may autonomously perform an additional cell search, in particular a search for cells on a RAT different from the initial target RAT. This creates an opportunity to prevent call failure of CSFB calls that would otherwise fail. The UE may be provisioned during the CSFB procedure with information to perform the additional cell search, should such a search be necessary.
