USER EQUIPMENT, CALL CONTINUITY APPLICATION SERVER, AND NETWORK HANDOVER METHOD
First Claim
1. A method for a user equipment (UE) to perform network handover, comprising:
- performing, by the UE that initiates a handover, a session negotiation on call continuity handover in a call-hold state with an Other End Point (OEP) via a target network; and
handing over a call to the target network after the session negotiation succeeds.

Abstract
A network handover method applicable to network handover in ringing/ring back tone (RBT) or call hold is provided. According to this method, in ringing/RBT, one party performs a session negotiation with an Other End Point (OEP) via a call continuity application server, and then sends an off-hook signal to the OEP via the call continuity application server after the negotiation succeeds. Further, a call continuity application server and a user equipment (UE) are provided. According to the present disclosure, in ringing/RBT or call hold, even if the network coverage is not good, the UE may also be handed over to another network through call continuity, so as to effectively prevent the UE from dropping a call in ringing/RBT or call hold and thus improve the conversation quality of the user.

7. A network handover method of a user equipment (UE), comprising:
-
receiving a network handover request from the UE that initiates a handover, wherein the network handover request carries session description information of the UE; if it is detected that a call is in a call-hold state, updating the session description information and sending the session description information carrying call-hold information of the UE that initiates the handover to an Other End Point (OEP); and handing over the call to a target network according to the network handover request after a session negotiation of the UE with the OEP, by using the session description information, succeeds. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
