GATEWAY NODE, USER EQUIPMENT AND METHODS THEREIN FOR HANDLING AN INCOMING CALL TO THE USER EQUIPMENT

摘要

A method performed by a gateway node, for handling an incoming call to a first user equipment is provided. The gateway node serves the first user equipment in a terminating network. The first user equipment is a called party of the incoming call. The gateway node obtains (402) information about whether or not the incoming call relates to a subscriber number that is comprised in a registered set of subscriber numbers registered by the first user equipment. When the incoming call relates to the registered set of subscriber numbers, the gateway node converts (403) the incoming call to an Enhanced Multi-level Precedence and Pre-emption service, EMLPP, call in the terminating network at the gateway node. The EMLPP call is a prioritized call achieving priority features over other calls in the terminating network. The priority features comprises: - Faster Call Setup Time - Queuing Capabilities - Precedence Capabilities - Pre-emption Capabilities.
