Abstract

L'invention porte sur un dispositif de détermination de transfert et un dispositif de commande de transfert qui préviennent un défaut de concordance d'état, une déconnexion d'appel et analogue entre un équipement utilisateur (UE) et un réseau IMS en raison de l'exécution d'un transfert dans l'état dans lequel SRVCC n'est pas prise en charge. Un équipement utilisateur (30) apte à effectuer une conversation téléphonique par conversation vocale ou conversation vidéo par l'intermédiaire d'un réseau de communication (10) et d'un réseau de communication (20) comprend : une unité de réception de requête de transfert (210) qui reçoit une requête de transfert (132) qui demande le transfert de la conversation téléphonique du réseau de communication (10) au réseau de communication (20) ; une unité d'acquisition d'état d'appel (220) qui détecte un état d'appel de l'équipement utilisateur (30) ; et une unité de transmission d'instruction (250) qui transmet, à un dispositif de commande de transfert (100), une instruction de rejet de transfert (262) pour que le dispositif de commande de transfert (100) amène l'équipement utilisateur (30) à ne pas exécuter le transfert sauf quand l'état d'appel est durant une conversation téléphonique.
