EMERGENCY CALL-BACK FOR MOBILE TERMINALS IN A LIMITED SERVICE MODE

摘要

An apparatus (100) and method (200) for enabling a wireless portable communication device in a limited service mode to receive an incoming call is provided. As the wireless portable communication device in the limited service mode initially makes a call to an emergency service center such as police (214), the call identifies the wireless portable communication device by a user module identity (308) or by an equipment identity (314), enabling the emergency service center to initiate a return call to the wireless portable communication device (216).
