Abstract

User Equipment ('UEs') associated with a conference may automatically join the conference (e.g., in situations where the teleconference is a scheduled teleconference or other suitable situations). As discussed below, when automatically joining a teleconference in such a manner, the UE may refrain from sending conference-related information (e.g., captured audio, video, etc.) to a teleconferencing system or to other participants of the teleconference until a user of the UE selects to join the teleconference. In this manner, control signaling or other setup procedures may be performed prior to the user selecting to join the teleconference, thus reducing the amount of time spent to perform such signaling or procedures after the user has indicated readiness to join the teleconference.
