20090213834 | Technique for coordinating CS and PS registrations in a multi-operator core network - A technique for coordinating the registration of a terminal (UE) in circuit-switched (CS) and packet-switched (PS) domains of a multi-operator core network (MOCN) with multiple core networks (CN) is described. According to a method approach, a notification message indicating the necessity of coordinated CS and PS registrations for a terminal (UE) is received from a first core network (CN). In a next step, and based on a global permanent identity (IMSI) associated with the terminal (UE), a second core network (CN) responsible for CS and PS registrations is determined. A registration message for coordinated CS and PS registrations is then sent to the second core network (CN) that has been determined based on the global permanent identity (IMSI). | 08-27-2009 |

20130045742 | RAN NODE AND METHOD THEREOF - The present invention relates to a method of a serving Radio Access Network (RAN) node for facilitating communication between a communication terminal and a core network in view of a handover of the communication terminal from said serving RAN node. The method comprises receiving a first message from the communication terminal, the message comprising a first message sequence number. The method also comprises producing a sequence number synchronization indicator (SNSI) arranged to indicate to a second RAN node to adjust a message sequence number of any future message from the communication terminal before forwarding said future message to the core network, such that the message sequence number of said future message is synchronized with a corresponding expected message sequence number of the core network. The method further comprises sending an update message to the second RAN node, wherein the update message comprises the SNSI. | 02-21-2013 |
