1. A mobility management entity (MME) comprising:
a first network interface which receives a tracking area update (TAU) request from a user equipment (UE);
a processing unit which translates the TAU request into a location area update (LAU) request; and
a second network interface in communication with the processing unit which sends the LAU request to a mobile switching center (MSC) selected as a tracking MSC thereby establishing the MME as the network node through which the tracking MSC will page the UE for subsequent mobile terminated voice calls, the second network interface receiving a LAU response from the tracking MSC that comprises at least information identifying one or more suitable location area identifiers (LAI(s)) to which handover is allowed and Network Resource Identifier (NRI) information, where the NRI information indicates that the tracking MSC controls the suitable LAI(s), and the processing unit translating the LAU response into a TAU response which is sent through the first network interface to the UE; and
the processing unit which triggers handover of the UE to 2G3G cells in support of mobile terminated voice calls wherein the processing unit uses a target 2G3G cell selected by an evolved NodeB (eNB) for handover where the target 2G3G cell belongs to at least one of the LAIs indicated by the suitable LAIs information.
2. The MME as described in claim 1 wherein the first network interface forwards the suitable LAIs information to the eNB controlling the LTE cell in which the UE is currently idle or active and further conveying this information to the UE during the control plane message exchange it performs with the eNB prior to the handover preparation phase being triggered if not conveyed from the MME to the UE during the TAU procedure.
3. The MME as described in claim 2 wherein the first network interface forwards an NRI information to the eNB controlling the LTE cell in which the UE is currently idle or active and further conveying this information to the UE during the control plane message exchange the UE performs with the eNB prior to the handover preparation phase being triggered if not conveyed from the MME to the UE during the TAU procedure or in the Handover from E-UTRAN command it receives from the eNB.
4. The MME as described in claim 1 wherein the processing unit proceeds with the handover preparation phase triggered by the eNB when the first network interface receives a Relocation Required message from the eNB wherein a specific target 2G3G cell is identified.
5. The MME as described in claim 4 including a third network interface and wherein the processing unit maps the Relocation Required message into a Forward Relocation Request message and the third network interface sends it to an SGSN associated with the target 2G3G cell to which the handover will be attempted.
6. The MME as described in claim 5 wherein the third network interface receives the Forward Relocation Response from the SGSN.
7. The MME as described in claim 6 wherein the first network interface sends the Relocation Command to the eNB.
8. The MME as described in claim 1 through which the UE may be paged wherein the second network interface receives a corresponding circuit switched (CS) page from the tracking MSC which then immediately forwards the CS Page to one or more eNBs when, at any point following a successful LAU procedure for a given UE, the tracking MSC detects the need to terminate a voice call for that UE.
9. The MME as described in claim 8 wherein the first network interface sends the CS Page to one or more eNBs which causes each eNB receiving a CS Page to attempt control plane message exchange with the UE to determine which eNB is actually serving the UE and the serving eNB to convey NRI information to the UE during the control plane message exchange the UE performs with the serving eNB immediately following eNB reception of the CS Page and prior to the handover preparation phase being triggered if not conveyed from the MME to the UE during the TAU procedure or within the Handover from E-UTRAN command the UE subsequently receives during the handover execution phase.
10. A method for a mobility management entity (MME) for setting up a call comprising the steps of:
receiving a tracking area update (TAU) request from a user equipment (UE);
translating the TAU into a location area update (LAU) request;
sending the LAU request to a mobile switching center (MSC) selected as a tracking MSC thereby establishing the MME as the network node through which the tracking MSC will page the UE for subsequent mobile terminated voice calls; and
receiving a LAU response from the tracking MSC that comprises at least information identifying one or more suitable location area identifiers (LAI(s)) to which handover is allowed and Network Resource Identifier (NRI) information, where the NRI information indicates that the tracking MSC controls the suitable LAI(s); and
triggering handover of the UE to 2G3G cells in support of mobile terminated voice calls wherein the MME uses a target 2G3G cell selected by an evolved NodeB (eNB) for handover where the target 2G3G cell belongs to at least one of the LAIs indicated by the suitable LAIs information.
11. The method as described in claim 10 including the step of forwarding the suitable LAIs information to the eNB controlling the LTE cell in which the UE is currently idle or active and further conveying this information to the UE during the control plane message exchange it performs with the eNB prior to the handover preparation phase being triggered if not conveyed from the MME to the UE during the TAU procedure.
12. The method as described in claim 11 including the step of forwarding an NRI information to the eNB controlling the LTE cell in which the UE is currently idle or active and further conveying this information to the UE during the control plane message exchange the UE performs with the eNB prior to the handover preparation phase being triggered if not conveyed from the MME to the UE during the TAU procedure or in the Handover from E-UTRAN command it receives from the eNB.
13. The method as described in claim 10 including the step of triggering the handover preparation phase by receiving a Relocation Required message from the eNB wherein a specific target 2G3G cell is identified.
14. The method as described in claim 13 including the step of mapping the Relocation Required message into a Forward Relocation Request message and sending it to an SGSN associated with the 2G3G cell to which the handover will be attempted.
15. The method as described in claim 14 including the step of receiving the Forward Relocation Response from the SGSN.
16. The method as described in claim 15 including the step of sending the Relocation Command to the eNB.
17. The method as described in claim 10 including the step of receiving a corresponding circuit switched (CS) page from the tracking MSC which then immediately forwards the CS Page to the eNB when, at any point following a successful LAU procedure for a given UE, the tracking MSC detects the need to terminate a voice call for that UE.
18. The method as described in claim 17 including the step of sending the CS page to the eNB which causes the eNB to convey NRI information to the UE during a control plane message exchange the UE performs with the eNB immediately following eNB reception of the CS Page and prior to the handover preparation phase being triggered if not conveyed from the MME to the UE during the TAU procedure or within the handover from E-UTRAN command the UE subsequently receives during the handover execution phase.
