METHOD OF AUTOMATICALLY RECONNECTING A DROPPED CALL IN A MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

An automatic dropped call reconnection method in a mobile communicating system is described. In the method of reconnecting a communication link terminated by a service impediment during service between a mobile terminal of a first subscriber and a terminal of a second subscriber communicating with the first subscriber through one of a plurality of base stations (BSs) connected to the mobile terminal and at least one of a plurality of mobile switching centers (MSCs) connected to the BS in a mobile communication system having the plurality of BSs and the plurality of MSCs, an MSC contacts a location register which registers the previous location of the mobile terminal when one of the plurality of BSs and the MSC connected to the BS receive a location registration request message from the mobile terminal after the service impediment. Then, the MSC determines whether information about the mobile terminal registered in the location register indicates service in progress, and attempts reconnection paging with the mobile terminal to thereby reinitiate the terminated service between the mobile terminal of the first subscriber and the terminal of the second subscriber, if the mobile terminal information indicates service in progress.
