HSS – Home Subscriber Server Provides:

• HLR/AuC functions for CS domain
• HLR/AuC functions for PS domain
• Authentication, authorization, service profile management, localization functions for IMS (S-CSCF address)

Interface Cx (HSS – CSCF):1. Subscriber authorization during registration (I-CSCF - HSS) 2. Request for authentication vectors for the subscriber (S-CSCF - HSS) 3. Subscriber registration (status: registered/unregistered) (S-CSCF - HSS) 4. De-registration on initiative network (HSS - S-CSCF) 5. Location request (I-CSCF - HSS) 6. Subscriber profile update (HSS - S-CSCF).

P-CSCF – Proxy Call Session Control Function, an intermediary for interaction with subscriber terminals. The main tasks are subscriber authentication and account creation (on the same network as GGSN).

S-CSCF – Serving Call Session Control Function, the central node of the IMS, processes all SIP messages exchanged between endpoints (in the home IMS). I-CSCF – Interrogating Call Session Control Function, an intermediary for interaction with external networks. The main tasks are to determine the privileges of an external subscriber to access services, select the appropriate application server and provide access to it, define the S-CSCF. Processes requests to establish incoming SIP calls:• to home network subscribers;• to roamers located in this network. Processes requests to register “its” subscribers by assigning S-CSCF.MGCF - Media Gateway Control Function, manages transport gateways. Broadcasts messages of SIP and ISUP protocols. MRF – Media Resource Function, includes:

• MRFC (controller), controls the multimedia resource processor,
• MRFP (processor) provides the implementation of services such as conference calls, notifications, and transcoding of the transmitted signal.

BGCF – Breakout Gateway Control Function, an element that controls the forwarding of calls between the circuit switching domain and the IMS network. Performs routing based on telephone numbers and selects a gateway in the circuit switching domain through which the IMS network will interface with the PSTN or GSM.

The place of IMS in the mobile network is shown in Fig. 6.

SIP – Session Initiation Protocol

The application layer protocol defines how a user session that includes multimedia elements such as video or voice is established, modified, and terminated. SIP is one of the protocols underlying Voice over IP. SIP has been established as a 3G signaling protocol and a permanent element of the IMS architecture. The protocol is simple, all protocol requests are formed based on text.

An example of a SIP call through a SIP proxy server is shown in Fig. 7.

SIP methods are given in table. 1.

The classes of SIP response codes are discussed in Table. 2.

How to remove the message when going online

If a notification appears every time a user connects to the network, you should do the following:

1. If your phone has a new SIM card, you should wait until it is activated automatically.
2. Log in to your personal account and check which Internet packages are included in the tariff you are using.
3. If the user has traveled outside his home region, it is important to check the roaming agreement and terms of service.
4. In the SIM card settings or technical support, you need to make sure that the access point data is filled out correctly.
5. There is a possibility that for the mobile Internet to work normally, another, additional activation is needed. It can be done through the operator.
6. If your phone is not the latest model, it may have problems using technologies such as LTE, 3G or 4G.

Manual mode

If you need to set up MTS mobile Internet on Lenovo manually, it will take a little time. Go to your phone settings, create a new point, fill in the following lines:

• name - MTS Internet (you can use something else, there is no fundamental difference);
• access point - internet.mts.ru (note that the https:// prefix is ​​missing);
• GPRS data transfer;
• login/password - one is used - mts.

If there are additional items in the form, you do not need to fill them out; all specified parameters are left unchanged.

Pay attention to the proxy server, it must be disabled. On Android devices there is also a column “Authentication type”, the option “No” is set there.

Don’t know how to set up MTS mobile internet on an iPhone ? Entering parameters is not much different from setting up devices running on the Android platform. Go to the Cellular Data menu section to provide access to high-speed Internet networks, turn on 3G, enter an APN, name, and access code. If you are going to work with an MTS router, you will need a little experience working with network devices of this type.

How to remove a spontaneous message

Sometimes a message can come from the system itself, and spontaneously, that is, at any time and regardless of the user’s actions. Then it is worth checking the following points:

1. Are mobile internet and Wi-fi enabled at the same time?
2. The performance of the SIM card on another phone.
3. Cleanliness of SIM card contacts (connectors can be blown out or gently wiped).
4. Problems associated with improper operation of the radio module.

Also, if the phone was purchased second-hand, there is a possibility of a problem due to an incorrect or unofficial IMEI. The same point applies to firmware.

Reboot your smartphone

The failure may be related to the software, so it is recommended to simply restart your smartphone.

Press and hold the device's on/off button until a menu appears on the screen.

This is where you need to select “Reboot”.

Wait for the reboot and check the functionality of the smartphone.

Network type

The likelihood that this solution will help is small, but still some users of new gadgets fixed the problem with the notification in this way.

In order to change the network type to any other, you need to open the settings (to do this, you need to either go to settings from the menu, or move the “curtain” down and click on the gear icon).

After this, you need to click on “Wireless networks” and select “Mobile network” (or “Mobile networks”) from the menu. Next you need to click on “Network Type” and change it. If the network type selection settings are set to “default”, you should change it to select 4G-2G networks. If there are no such networks in the gadget, you can select only 3G-2G.

Prerequisites for IMS implementation

Consolidation of operators and the ability to provide converged services

Competition between existing mobile operators remains very high, and active mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are taking place in the market. Companies providing different types of services (fixed and mobile telephony, mobile telephony and cable television, etc.) are often consolidated. IMS technology helps them combine all types of networks into one, implement a range of services that combines the capabilities of mobile and fixed communications based on one platform (convergent services) and provide operators with ARPU growth and increased revenue.

Threat from OTT services

Third-party providers of text, voice and video applications (OTT providers) are cannibalizing the traditional services of mobile operators (voice and SMS), which generate the bulk of the latter's revenue. With the advancement of technology (the transition to 4G), OTT providers are increasing the attractiveness of their services, for example, providing support for voice and high-definition (HD) video, which exacerbates the problem.

The need to reduce operator costs

An obvious trend in the global telecommunications market is the increase in capital expenditures of operators.

It is believed that IMS in the medium to long term will allow operators to reduce capital (CAPEX) and operating (OPEX) costs through the use of a single IP network and open IMS architecture. In addition, operators will be able to bring new services to market quickly and at low cost. However, at the initial stage of IMS implementation, operators will obviously have to increase their costs.

The emergence and development of LTE networks

The sharp increase in mobile data traffic consumption, intense competition and high demand for mobile broadband services requires the introduction of expensive LTE and LTE Advanced technologies. The development of 4G networks, in turn, encourages operators to implement IMS technology, as it makes it possible to implement voice services on LTE networks (VoLTE) and other services.

Phone problem

Finally, the problem may relate to the phone itself. What to do in this case? The most radical method suggested by users for such a case is to update or reinstall the firmware of their phone. To do this, you need to go to the phone settings or switch to the Recovery menu.

The easiest way to update/reinstall the phone's firmware is through the settings. To do this, you need to go to the settings, and then select the menu item “About phone” (in some models the item will be called “About device”). After this, you need to find the “Software Update” subsection and make sure that there are current updates for your gadget (checking for updates starts only when there is an active Internet connection).

Of course, even the firmware cannot guarantee that the problem will be solved. But usually in such cases the problem can be much more serious, and it is best to entrust its solution to the service center specialists.

Reasons for the error The device is not certified for Android

Starting in March 2021, Google began blocking access of uncertified devices (i.e., those phones and tablets that have not passed the necessary certification or do not meet some of Google's requirements) to Google Play services.

The error could have been encountered before on devices with custom firmware, but now the problem has become more widespread and not only on unofficial firmware, but also on simply Chinese devices, as well as in Android emulators.

In this way, Google is fighting the lack of certification on cheap Android devices (and to pass certification, they must meet Google's specific requirements).

Card activation methods

There are the following ways to activate “plastic”:

• Call the hotline.
• Through the Internet.
• At the ATM.
• Using a smartphone application.

By phone

To activate a debit or credit card, you need to call 8-800-200-30-30, and then follow a few simple steps:

2. Press “5” and do everything automatically.

If automatic activation was not selected, a transfer will occur to the bank manager, who will have to provide the following data:

• 16-digit credit card number;
• Full name, series and passport number;
• date of birth;
• mobile phone;
• Secret word.

Linking to a phone number and setting a code word is carried out to protect against fraudsters and identify the client in the future. After this, the manager will activate the account and generate a PIN code.

Via ATM

The most reliable way to register “plastic” is to use an ATM of the desired financial institution. The procedure is quite easy:

1. We insert the card into a special slot and enter the PIN code. If it is entered incorrectly three times, the “plastic” is automatically blocked, so you need to be extremely careful.
2. After pressing “Enter” and “Next”, select “Menu” and then “Check balance”.
3. Checking the balance. If the plastic card is linked to your phone, you can refuse to issue a receipt by ordering the account balance to be displayed on the screen.
4. We take the already activated card.

In the future, you will be able to manage funds at your own discretion, because... After registration in the system, restrictions on operations are removed.

Through the Internet

Despite the fact that the company does not officially provide an activation method via the Internet, you can use a little trick that will make the task much easier. To do this, just do the following:

1. Register with Alpha Click, top up your mobile phone balance, transfer money to another account, or order free details.
