Abstract:
A VoWiFi service monitor monitors the logical data path to the ePDG of a MNO as an indication of whether VoWiFi service is possible for subscribers of the MNO network. Due to the standard configuration of UEs in preferring WLAN connectivity over LTE cellular connectivity, if the VoWiFi service is unavailable the UEs will not automatically switch to VoLTE while a WLAN connection is available between the UE and a hub. When a change in the status of an ePDG is detected, the VoWiFi service monitor informs any connected hubs. The hubs receive notifications from the VoWiFi service monitor and for each notification determine whether the ePDG status change affects one or more of the VoWiFi capable UEs connected to the hub. If at least one such device is affected by the change, the hub notifies the affected UE with instructions to handover from VoWiFi to VoLTE.

Claim (Index 8):
A wireless access point for managing access of at least one mobile device to a voice service located in a cellular network, the voice service being accessible via a base station of the cellular network and also via a gateway server located at a boundary between the cellular network and a public wide area network, the at least one mobile device having a cellular network interface and a wireless network interface, wherein the at least one mobile device is configured to connect to the voice service via a first path from the at least one mobile device to the voice service via the base station and the cellular network, and a second path from the mobile device via the wireless access point, the public wide area network, the gateway server and the cellular network, the wireless access point comprising:\n a wireless network interface for communication with the at least one mobile device; a wide area network interface for communication with the public wide area network; means for monitoring whether the at least one mobile device is currently connected to the voice service via the second path; means for processing presence information relating to an accessibility of the gateway server via the public wide area network; and means for instructing the at least one mobile device to connect to the voice service via the first path, if the at least one mobile device is connected to the voice service via the second path and the gateway server is not accessible via the public wide area network.
