Current CDMA specifications support the concept of service options on both the control and the traffic channels. Service options allow various voice and non-voice services to be defined independently within the confines of the physical layer and the multiplex sub-layer interface. Each service option defines the configuration and parameters used in physical layer and multiplex sub-layer for a specific call type. Approximately 50 service options have been defined for CDMA to date. These defined service options are used for negotiation between a mobile telephone and a network. Every time a mobile telephone connects to a network, the mobile telephone and the network must negotiate and agree on a service option to use for communication during that connection. The service options are defined in Administration of Parameter Value Assignments for cdma2000 Spread Spectrum Standards—Release D (3GPP2 C.R1001-D, V1.0, Apr. 18, 2003). For example, service option 1 defines a basic variable rate voice service with a communication speed of 8 kbps, while service option 15 defines a packet data service with a communication speed of 14.4 kbps. Each service option is identified by a two byte (16 bit) service option binary number
One or more mobile stations 10 can further be coupled to one or more wireless access points (APs) 36. The APs can be configured to communicate with the mobile station in accordance with techniques such as, for example, radio frequency (RF), Bluetooth (BT), infrared (IrDA) or any of a number of different wireless networking techniques, including WLAN techniques. The APs may be coupled to the Internet 20. Like with the MSC 14, the APs can be directly coupled to the Internet. In one embodiment, however, the APs are indirectly coupled to the Internet via a GTW 18. As will be appreciated, by directly or indirectly connecting the mobile stations and the user processors (e.g., game servers 22, routing servers 24, personal computer (PC) systems 26, game consoles 28, and network entities) and/or any of a number of other devices to the Internet, whether via the APs or the mobile network(s), the mobile stations and user processors can communicate with one another to thereby carry out various functions of the respective entities, such as to transmit and/or receive data, content or the like. As used herein, the terms “data,” “content,” “information,” and similar terms may be used interchangeably to refer to data capable of being transmitted, received and/or stored in accordance with embodiments of the invention. Thus, use of any such terms should not be taken to limit the spirit and scope of the embodiments of the invention.
Reference is now made to FIG. 3, which illustrates the use of capability communication parameters, such as CDMA capability configuration parameters, with a call setup command of a card application toolkit (CAT), such as a CDMA Card Application Toolkit (CCAT) CALL SETUP command, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. As discussed above, an R-UIM in a mobile telephone (or other type of mobile communication station) may contain an application that will use the CAT commands to interact with and operate the mobile telephone. In particular, the R-UIM application, such as a call-forwarding application, may use the call setup command to cause the mobile telephone to initiate a telephone call or other type of communication session to the network. In embodiments of the present invention, the R-UIM application will create a list of service options (“SO”), such as CDMA service options, that may be used as the capability configuration parameters in the call setup command from the R-UIM application. See block 100. The list of service options will typically comprise a plurality of service options, with each service option capable of supporting the type of call the R-UIM is attempting to initiate. For example, if the R-UIM application is attempting to initiate a data call (i.e., a call in which data will be transferred across the network to and/or from the mobile telephone), the list of service options created will typically comprise some or all the service options capable of supporting a data call. For example, the list may contain two service options, SO 16 and SO 8, wherein both service options are for a cellular digital packet data (CDPD) call, but SO 16 will use a data rate of 14.4 kbps while SO 8 use a data rate of 9.6 kbps. Alternatively, if the R-UIM application is attempting to initiate a voice call, the list of service options created will typically comprise some or all the service options capable of supporting a voice call. For example, the list can contain two service options, SO 3 and SO 1, wherein SO 3 will use enhanced variable rate voice codec and SO 1 will use basic variable rate voice codec. The R-UIM application will typically order the list of service options according to the preferability of each service option, such that the most preferable service option is listed first and the least preferable (but still appropriate) service option is listed last.
