Communication system
First Claim
1. A method of transmitting a communication event from a calling entity to a called entity located in a communication system comprising a first network and a second network, the method comprising:
- determining a first identity associated with the calling entity and a first and second identity associated with the called entity, wherein the first identities are recognizable in the first network and the second identity is recognizable in the second network;
associating at a first node located in the second network the first identities with the second identity;
establishing a connection between the calling entity and a second node;
wherein the connection with second node is established using the first identity associated with the called entity;
querying the first node with the first identity associated with the called entity and the first identity associated with the calling entity to determine the second identity associated with the called entity; and
transmitting the communication event to the called entity using the second identity associated with the called entity.

Abstract
A method of transmitting a communication event from a calling entity to a called entity located in a communication system comprising a first network and a second network, said method comprising determining a first identity associated with the calling entity and a first and second identity associated with the called entity, wherein the first identities are recognizable in the first network and the second identity is recognizable in the second network; associating at a first node located in the second network the first identities with the second identity; establishing a connection between the calling entity and a second node; wherein the connection with second node is established using the first identity associated with the called entity; querying the first node with the first identity associated with the called entity and the first identity associated with the calling entity to determine the second identity associated with the called entity; and transmitting the communication event to the called entity using the second identity associated with the called entity.

determining a first identity associated with the calling entity and a first and second identity associated with the called entity, wherein the first identities are recognizable in the first network and the second identity is recognizable in the second network; associating at a first node located in the second network the first identities with the second identity; establishing a connection between the calling entity and a second node;
wherein the connection with second node is established using the first identity associated with the called entity;querying the first node with the first identity associated with the called entity and the first identity associated with the calling entity to determine the second identity associated with the called entity; and transmitting the communication event to the called entity using the second identity associated with the called entity. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)

22. A communication system comprising a first network and a second network, wherein the communication system is arranged to transmit a communication event from a calling entity to a called entity located in the communication system, the communication system comprising:
-
a first network node located in the second network arranged to determine a first identity associated with the calling entity and a first and second identity associated with the called entity, wherein the first identities are recognizable in the first network and the second identity is recognizable in the second network; and
to associate the first identities with the second identity; anda gateway node arranged to receive a connection established by the calling entity wherein the connection is established using the first identity associated with the called entity; wherein the first node is further arranged to provide the second identity associated with the called entity in response to receiving the first identity associated with the called entity and the first identity associated with the calling entity from the gateway node, such that the gateway node may transmit the communication event to the called entity using the second identity associated with the called entity. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25)
