Method for transferring a communication session between devices

摘要

A method for transferring a communication session between a source user device and a target user device in a communication network, where the communication session is established between the source user device and a server is proposed. An identifier of a user device is determined. A session modification request is then sent from the source user device to the server, where the request includes the identifier of the target user device. A capability of the target user device to handle the communication session is then checked. Next, if the target user device is capable of handling the communication session a further communication session between the server and the target user device is established.

1. A method for transferring a communication session between a source user device and a target user device in a communication network, wherein the communication session is established between the source user device and a server, the method comprising the steps of:
determining an identifier of the target user device, wherein determining the identifier comprises reading a barcode, a low-voltage circuit, a Near Field Communication (NFC) device, or an NFC tag; sending a session modification request from the source user device to the server, said request comprising the identifier of the target user device, wherein determining the identifier comprises determining the identifier of the target user device before sending the session modification request, and wherein sending the session modification request comprises sending the session modification request comprising the identifier of the target user device from the source user device to the server, in response to reading the barcode, the low-voltage circuit, the NFC device, or the NFC tag; checking a capability of the target user device to handle the communication session; and establishing a further communication session between the server and the target user device responsive to said target user device being capable of handling the communication session.
