1. An apparatus comprising:
- a processor circuit for a machine type communication-interworking function (MTC-IWF) capable of operating in compliance with one or more 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution (LTE) standards including LTE-Advanced (LTE-A);
a receive component for execution by the processor circuit to receive a Device-Action-Request (DAR) command from a service capability server (SCS) through a telecommunications service provider (Tsp) interface, the DAR command including a Device-Action attribute value pair (AVP) having an user equipment (UE) identifier to indicate an UE to receive a trigger message initiated by the SCS, an SCS-Identifier for the SCS, a Reference-Number AVP set to identify the trigger message and an Action-Type AVP set to a value to indicate a device trigger recall request to recall the trigger message;
a status component for execution by the processor circuit to determine a status of the device trigger recall request responsive to one of an initiation of a recall procedure with a short message service-service center (SMS-SC) or a rejection of the initiation of the recall procedure by the MTC-IWF or the SMS-SC; and
an answer component for execution by the processor circuit to send a Device-Action-Answer (DAA) command to the SCS through the Tsp interface, the DAA command including a Device-Notification AVP having the UE identifier, the SCS-Identifier, the Reference-Number AVP, the Action-Type AVP and a Request-Status AVP set to a value to indicate success or failure of the device trigger recall request.

Abstract
Examples may include techniques for a device trigger recall or a device trigger replace procedure as implemented at a machine type communication-interworking function (MTC-IWF) in response to a command received from a service capability server (SCS). Examples may also include the SCS generating a command for a device trigger recall or a device replace to cause the MTC-IWF to implement the device trigger recall or device trigger replace procedure to either recall or replace a trigger message destined for user equipment. Both the MTC-IWF and the SCS may operate in compliance with one or more 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution (LTE) standards.

12. At least one non-transitory machine readable medium comprising a plurality of instructions that in response to being executed on a system for a service capability server (SCS) capable of operating in compliance with one or more or more 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution (LTE) standards including LTE-Advanced (LTE-A), causes the system to:
-
send a Device-Action-Request (DAR) command to a machine type communication-interworking function (MTC-IWF) through a telecommunications service provider (Tsp) interface, the DAR command including a Device-Action attribute value pair (AVP) having an user equipment (UE) identifier to indicate an UE to receive a trigger message initiated by the SCS, an SCS-Identifier for the SCS, a Reference-Number AVP set to identify the trigger message and an Action-Type AVP set to a value to indicate a device trigger recall request to recall the trigger message; receive a Device-Action-Answer (DAA) command from the MTC-IWF through the Tsp interface, the DAA command including a Device-Notification AVP having the UE identifier, the SCS-Identifier, the Reference-Number AVP, the Action-Type AVP and a Request-Status AVP set to a value to indicate success or failure of the device trigger recall request; and determine the status of the device trigger replace request based on the value set in the request-status AVP. - View Dependent Claims (13)
