HANDLING TIME INFORMATION IN COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS

摘要

A method of handling time information in a communications system (100) comprising: receiving a message at a proxy entity such as a P-CSCF (110, 112, 114) in an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) core network (108); determining a time zone offset between a local time of a terminal and a core network time; providing the time zone offset to a network element (116) in the core network; and generating a time stamp in the network element adjusted to correspond to the local time.
