Method and communication network for operating a cross coding element
First Claim
1. In communication system, wherein a first endpoint is operable in accordance with a first encoded protocol, and a second endpoint is operable in accordance with a second encoded protocol, a method for operating a cross coding element, the method comprising:
- detecting a condition suggesting a change in encoded protocols between the first and second endpoints; and
communicating with a cross coding element configured to convert a first encoded signal from the first endpoint to a second encoded signal, the first encoded signal being encoded by the first encoded protocol, and the second encoded signal being encoded by the second encoded protocol.

Abstract
A method (400) and a communication network (110) for operating a cross coding element are described herein. The communication network (110) may detect a condition suggesting a change in encoded protocols between a first endpoint (240) and a second endpoint (250) such as, but not limited to, a call setup, an application requirement, and a handover associated with the first endpoint (240). The first endpoint (240) may operate in accordance with a first encoded protocol whereas the second endpoint (250) may operate in accordance with a second encoded protocol. The communication network (110) may communicate with a cross coding element (230) configured to convert a first encoded protocol signal from the first endpoint (240) to a second encoded signal. The first encoded signal may be encoded by the first encoded protocol, and the second encoded signal may be encoded by the second encoded protocol.
