Voice over WiFi


Length: 2 days


CONTENT

The Voice over WiFi course describes how WiFi access is used for operator-controlled 3GPP voice calls (sometimes referred to as WiFi calling). The course explains how (U)SIM-based terminals/UEs get IP-connectivity to the Evolved Packet Core over non-3GPP access (namely WiFi), and how IMS is used as service platform for voice calls.


The focus in the course is on un-trusted non-3GPP access with IPsec establishment between UE to ePDG and with GTP used on S2b interface. The course outlines how EPS Bearers for voice calls (for SIP and RTP) are set up in non-3GPP access. Security procedures using with EAP-AKA and IKEv2 are described. The basic IMS architecture is described, as well as procedures for registration and VoWiFi call setup (invitation). Mobility scenarios between WiFi and E-UTRAN accesses are discussed, including scenarios using ANDSF for providing the UE with rules and policies related to network discovery and selection. Scenarios where the UE has multiple simultaneous PDN connections are discussed and concepts like Multiple Access PDN Connection (MAPCON), IP Flow Mobility (IFOM) and Non-Seamless WLAN Offload (NSWO) are outlined.
