First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- detecting, by one or more processors, that a mobile station is involved in a packet-switched emergency call, wherein the mobile station is initially attached to a first type of wireless access network;
detecting, by the one or more processors, transitioning of the mobile station from the first type wireless access network to a second, different type of wireless access network; and
in response to detecting transitioning of the mobile station, the one or more processors sending a message indicating transitioning of the mobile station from the first type wireless access network to the second type wireless access network to cause the packet-switched emergency call to be performed over the second type wireless access network after the transitioning.

Abstract
A mobile station that is initially attached to a first type of wireless access network is involved in a packet-switched emergency call. Upon detection of transitioning of the mobile station, a message is sent indicating transitioning of the mobile station from the first type wireless access network to the second type wireless access network to cause the packet-switched emergency call to be performed over the second type wireless access network.

12. A communications node comprising:
one or more processors configured to; store information regarding a session for a packet-switched emergency call, where in the session is between a mobile station and a target wireless access network; communicate messaging to allow transitioning of the mobile station from a source wireless access network to the target wireless access network, wherein the source and target wireless access networks are different types of networks; and after the transitioning, using the stored information to establish the packet-switched emergency call over the target wireless access network. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. An article comprising at least one computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that upon execution cause by one or more processors to:
-
detect that a mobile station is involved in a packet-switched emergency call, wherein the mobile station is initially attached to a first type of wireless access network; detect transitioning of the mobile station from the first type wireless access network to a second, different type of wireless access network; and in response to detecting transitioning of the mobile station, send a message indicating transitioning of the mobile station from the first type wireless access network to the second type wireless access network to cause the packet-switched emergency call to be performed over the second type wireless access network after the transitioning. - View Dependent Claims (20)
