An application transaction comprised in a payload section of at least one data unit is identifying. In response to identifying the application transaction, allocation of radio resources for transmission of the at least one data unit on a radio link is controlled.

Communication of application transactions on a radio link

An application transaction () comprised in a payload section () of at least one data unit () is identified. In response to identifying the application transaction (), allocation of radio resources for transmission of the at least one data unit () on a radio link is controlled.

The present disclosure generally relates to the field of service delivery. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a technique of supporting provisioning of a service from a wireless communication network associated with an operator to one or more end devices. A method embodiment comprises agreeing, between the one or more end devices () and a support system () of the wireless communication network (), on providing a service with target performance characteristics to the one or more end devices (), the service being requested by the one or more end devices () to be provided with desired performance characteristics to the one or more end devices () and the target performance characteristics being dependent on the desired performance characteristics and performance characteristics measurements associated with the one or more access network nodes (); and providing, by the one or more access network nodes (), the service with the target performance characteristics to the one or more end devices ().

The present invention is directed to a method, a switching server, a terminal device and system for providing circuit switched calls and services to terminal devices connected to a switching server via an IP Multimedia Subsystem. The method comprises a step of providing (S) a first interworking entity () in the terminal device () for interworking between circuit switched signalling messages and signalling messages related to packet switched sessions towards the IMS (). The method further comprises providing (S) a second interworking entity () in the switching server () towards the IMS (). The terminal device () is thus capable of accessing circuit switched calls and services directly from the switching server ().

Providing circuit switched calls and services over a broadband network

The invention provides a test phone whereby the test phone comprises means to communicate to a server, means to generate SIP signaling towards the server, whereby the test phone by means for SIP signaling may request the server to set-up a test call using specific resources for routing said test call.

An enhanced interworking function (E-IWF) supports a method of direct digital interworking between a radio telecommunications network and standard Internet Protocol (IP) routers. A general purpose interworking function performs speech transcoding and data interworking. A specific translation interworking function translates directly between mobile-specific voice encoding and Voice-over-IP protocols, and between mobile-specific fax encoding and Fax-on-IP protocols. The method provides interworking between cellular protocols in a time division multiple access (TDMA) cellular telecommunications network, and Internet protocols being utilized by an Internet End-System (ES) or fax gateway.

Enhanced interworking function for interfacing digital cellular voice and fax protocols and internet protocols

A system for processing a call between a mobile services switching centre (MSC) and a gateway mobile switching centre (GMSC) includes a first alternative gateway unit (ANG) being connected to the mobile services switching centre and a second alternative gateway unit (ANG) being connected to the gateway mobile switching centre. A call which is to be processed via an alternative network (AN) is processed directly between the alternative gateway units (ANG). The alternative gateway units (ANG) include means for performing speech and data coding and means to transmit and receive a call to be able to process the call directly via the alternative network, e.g. a Voice-over-IP network.
