System, Method, and Computer-Readable Medium for Concurrent Termination of Multiple Calls at a Mobile Terminal
First Claim
1. A method of terminating calls to a mobile terminal, comprising:
- receiving a call request directed to the mobile terminal;
determining the mobile terminal is currently terminated with an in-progress first call;
determining the mobile terminal is available to accept a second call; and
setting up the second call with the mobile terminal while the first call is maintained in progress.

Abstract
A system, method and computer-readable medium for allocating multiple subscriptions to a single mobile terminal thereby allowing concurrent termination of multiple calls at the mobile terminal are provided. A mobile terminal adapted to terminate multiple concurrent calls is described. In one implementation, a network need not have any configuration data regarding the multi-line capabilities of the mobile terminal. In other implementations, network-centric mechanisms are provided for allowing multiple concurrent calls to be terminated by a mobile terminal. Multiple concurrent calls may be terminated at a mobile terminal on separate carrier frequencies or alternatively may be terminated on a common carrier frequency.

13. A mobile terminal for deployment in a network system, comprising:
-
a first antenna; a first transceiver coupled to the first antenna; and a processing system that executes computer-executable instructions for terminating calls with the mobile terminal, wherein the mobile terminal is adapted to concurrently receive a first call on a first channel and a second call on a second channel, and wherein the processing system provides mid-call services for the second call. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
