C.3 ATCF in architectures with Mx as a roaming interface without media anchored in ATGW
23.2373GPPIP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Service ContinuityRelease 17Stage 2TS
This clause describes the case when the P-CSCF and the ATCF are in the HPLMN in architectures without IMS-level roaming interfaces. In this clause there is no media anchoring in the ATGW. It can be seen that SIP signalling is transported from the MSC server in the VPLMN to the IBCF in the VPLMN via the Mx reference point and in the HPLMN from the IBCF to the ATCF via the Mx reference point as well.
Figure C.3-1: PS to CS access transfer
1. Interaction between UE, RAN, MME/SGSN and MSC Server as specified in TS 23.216 [10]. The following step is triggered after the MSC Server has received the PS to CS request from the MME / SGSN and has allocated resources in the RAN.
2. The MSC Server initiates Access Transfer message and if supported, the MSC Server indicates its capability to support MSC Server assisted mid-call feature. The MSC Server provides all the supported Codecs for voice or voice and video in the Access Transfer message. The Access Transfer message is sent to the IBCF in the VPLMN towards the IBCF in the HPLMN.
NOTE 1: The STN-SR received by the MSC server, in conjunction with the routing tables in the MSC server ensures the proper routing of SIP signalling from the VPLMN to the HPLMN towards the ATCF via the IBCF.
3. The IBCF in the HPLMN sends the Access transfer message via the Mx reference point to the ATCF. The ATCF receives the Access Transfer message and correlates the transferred session using the C-MSISDN. As the media flow has not been anchored in the ATGW, the ATCF forwards the Access Transfer message along with priority indication if received to the SCC AS using the stored ATU-STI. If the MSC Server indicated it supported mid-call feature, it also indicates this in the message to the SCC AS.
4. The SCC AS correlates the incoming Access Transfer message. As the Session Description has changed, a remote end update is initiated according to clause 6.3.1.5.
5. The SCC AS sends an Access Transfer response to the ATCF in the HPLMN. In the case MSC Server assisted mid-call feature is supported and used, the SCC AS provides Session State Information (SSI) according to clause 6.3.2.1.4a.
6. The ATCF forwards the response to the IBCF in the HPLMN and from there to the IBCF in the visited network.
7. The IBCF in the VPLMN forwards the response to the MSC Server. If the MSC Server receives the Session State Information of more than one active or inactive speech sessions, it initiates Access Transfer towards SCC AS for the additional session according to clause 6.3.2.1.4a.
NOTE 2: The success of mid-call features depends upon the proper transport of the SIP signalling towards the ATCF and the support in ATCF.
8. Procedures according to clause 6.3.2.1.4, steps 4a and 4b are used to handle the cases where the Gm reference point is either retained upon PS handover procedure, not retained upon PS handover, or if there was no other media flow(s) in the IMS session.
