First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of communicating a packetized emergency message (PEM) from a wireless device to a packetized emergency message consumer (PEMC) comprising the steps of:
- receiving an indication that PEM is supported via one of short message service (SMS) and a unstructured supplementary service data (USSD);
discovering an address of a PEMC;
transmitting the PEM to the PEMC via the at least one of SMS and USSD.

Abstract
A system and method allows for providing emergency service, whether the service is full or limited, to wireless devices using non-IMS packet traffic based methods or Access Stratum/Non-Access Stratum (AS/NAS) signalling based methods. To do so, a system and method for utilizing a Packetized Emergency Message (PEM) is provided.
