<p>A method of enhancing SIP forking for offering improved call services in a telecommunication network is disclosed. An endpoint of the network is assigned as a Forking Master for providing improved call services for a user in the same Address of Record (AoR) in the presence of forking. The method of assigning a forking master comprises of user provisioning, updating by the user terminal during registration, subsequent declaration by the user terminal, third-party assignment and network-triggered assignment. An endpoint can take up or relinquish the role of Forking Master by specifying the value‘true’or false' for the forking-master parameter. The Forking Master can be associated with call completion services, presence-based services, call- forwarding interaction, lawful interception, facilities like PBRT and the like.</p> |
