PROCESSING PACKET-SWITCHED VOICE CALLS DIRECTED TO A MOBILE UNIT OPERATING IN CIRCUIT-SWITCHED MODE

摘要

A packet-switched voice call directed to a mobile subscriber unit (MS/DTE) in a cellular communication network is processed by determining whether the mobile subscriber unit is in a circuit-switched mode of operation (23) and, if so, either forwarding the information in the packet-switched voice call to a destination other than the mobile subscriber unit or notifying the mobile subscriber unit (B, C, D, E) that the packet-switched voice call is waiting (51).
