Abstract:
The same priority is applied to all resources assigned to an incident. A first dispatch system in a first network assigns a network resource in the first network to an incident that occurred in a first jurisdiction. The first dispatch system requests a mutual aid resource from a second dispatch system in a second network subsequent to identifying a resource gap in the first network. The first dispatch system obtains the mutual aid resource from the second dispatch system. A first policy component in the first network receives, from at least one of a first prioritization service in the first network and the at least one second network, at least one of an incident information or a mutual aid information. The first policy component correlates the mutual aid resource with obtained incident information and assigns a same priority to the network resource and the mutual aid resource.
Abstract:
A method and network element are provided that manage bearers in a wireless communication system. The method and network element receives a bearer request associated with a user equipment (UE) and a service data flow (SDF). In response to determining that a value of a first quality of service parameter associated with the SDF is the same as a value of the corresponding first quality of service parameter of a bearer currently allocated to the UE, and that a value of the second quality of service parameter associated with the SDF is different than a value of the corresponding second quality of service parameter of the bearer currently allocated to the UE, the method and network element modifies the value of the second quality of service parameter of the bearer currently allocated to the UE to produce a modified bearer and maps the SDF to the modified bearer.

Abstract:
A method is provided that allows for prioritizing Push-To-Talk (PTT) service in a roamed network. PTT service is enabled for a mobile device at a first network. The mobile device roams to a second network that is of an older generation than the first network. It is determined that the mobile device has an active PTT subscription. PTT service is prioritized for the mobile device over circuit switched services on the second network.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided, for accessing a data-capture device in a different domain, by public safety wireless communications equipment, for the purpose of obtaining information at an incident. A dispatch controller of a public safety wireless communications system receives an access token from a server of a non-public-safety network, when an incident occurs. The token allows access to a data-capture device, and is associated with the incident. The dispatch controller sends the token to the data-capture device, receives a data stream, and forwards the data stream to a public safety wireless communication device. The public safety wireless communication device may itself discover and access the data-capture device, and may receive the data stream directly from the data-capture device. The public safety wireless communication device may forward the data stream and/or the access token to other public safety wireless communication devices.
