CONTROL OF A SUSPEND STATE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for controlling a suspend state concerning a terminal device (MS) that is provided with both circuit-switched and packet-switched services by a communication network but that can only use: either the circuit-switched or the packet-switched service at a time. In a situation in which the terminal device (MS) enters into the suspend state in the packet-switched service in order to use the circuit-switched service, the method comprises supplying information (25) about the terminal device's (MS) entry into the suspend state to a gateway node of said communication network, such as a Gateway GPRS Support Node (GGSN) of a GPRS network.
