Patent ID: 10382933

Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention relate to identifying and routing an emergency call for a user equipment to an emergency center, thereby establishing the emergency call with the emergency center over a wireless LAN network. The establishing of said emergency call is performed by a network entity and modules present therein. A P-CSCF module analyses a request for establishing the emergency call received from the user equipment, wherein the request comprises a destination emergency number, a subscriber identity and an access type through which the request is made. The P-CSCF module transmits a location retrieval request to a PCRF module for retrieving a location information of the user equipment. Subsequently, an E-CSCF module receives a routing information from a LRF module based on the location information, pursuant to which the E-CSCF module routes the emergency call to the emergency center and establishes the emergency call with the emergency center.
