1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a computing device, an emergency call via a session initiation protocol (SIP) invite that includes a cell identification (ID) and a service or device type associated with a user equipment (UE);
determining, by the computing device and based on the service or device type, whether the UE is a fixed device or a wireless device; and
using, by the computing device, a cell database to route the emergency call to a public safety answering point (PSAP) when the UE is a fixed device or a wireless device.

Abstract
A device receives an emergency call via a session initiation protocol (SIP) invite that includes a cell identification (ID) and a service or device type associated with a user equipment (UE). The device determines, based on the service or device type, whether the UE is a fixed device or a wireless device, and uses a static approach to route the emergency call to a public safety answering point (PSAP) when the UE is a fixed device. The device uses a cell database to route the emergency call to the PSAP, based on the cell ID, when the UE is a wireless device.

7. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, by a computing device and from a user equipment (UE) placing an emergency call, address information associated with the UE; performing, by the computing device and when the address information fails to include a global positioning system (GPS) location of the UE, reverse geo-coding of the address information to determine the GPS location of the UE; and storing, by the computing device, the address information and the GPS location of the UE in a database. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A computing device, comprising:
-
a memory to store a plurality of instructions; and a processor to execute instructions in the memory to; receive an emergency call via a session initiation protocol (SIP) invite that includes a cell identification (ID) and a service or device type associated with a user equipment (UE), where the SIP invite further includes an indication that the UE does not have global positioning system (GPS) functionality, determine, based on the service or device type, whether the UE is a fixed device or a wireless device, and route the emergency call, using a cell database and based on the cell ID, to a public safety answering point (PSAP) when the UE is a fixed device or a wireless device. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A computing device, comprising:
-
a memory to store a plurality of instructions; and a processor to execute instructions in the memory to; receive, from a user equipment (UE) without global positioning system (GPS) functionality, address information associated with the UE placing an emergency call, where the address information includes at least a civic address of the UE, perform, when the address information fails to include a GPS location of the UE, reverse geo-coding of the address information to determine the GPS location of the UE, and store the address information and the GPS location of the UE in a database. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
