METHOD AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATICALLY DISCOVERING THE COMMON MULTIMEDIA SERVICE CAPABILITY

摘要

ABSTRACTThe invention relates a method, a system, a server and a computer program product for Multimedia Capability discovery of different user terminals 12,13. This solution avoid unnecessary use of the radio interface and is based on a network storage 18, which is accessible without registration to find out about the calling as well as the called user's multimedia capabilities during a voice call. If there is a positive capability discovery result out of this for both users, the system will send a message to each of the two user terminals 12,13 that they should notify the users e.g. by displaying an icon above a soft button. There will be no need for establishing a packet switched session, which uses a lot of radio interface signalling, until the Multimedia Service capability of both subscribers and their user terminals are investigated and responded to both user terminals and their users.Publ.
