Abstract
In according with the teachings of the present invention, a method and apparatus for performing fast call set-up in a wireless network is presented (FIG.). A number of efficiencies are implemented to diminish the time required for establishing a call in a packet-based network. For example, call initiation () and Base Station Subsystem (BSS-) resource allocation are performed contemporaneously; radio Link resources and packet resources are initiated contemporaneously (-); an A10 interface is established immediately after allocating and connecting packet control function (PCF) resources for a packet data session (); and a service connection request () is performed immediately after a channel assignment process () is performed.
