- This document proposes concepts for supporting circuit-switched fallback (CSFB) in 3GPP2 specifications.
- It outlines CSFB architecture, call flows for pre-registration, mobile origination, and mobile termination between E-UTRAN, MME, 1xRTT CS access network and MSC.
- A new protocol "Circuit Switch Tunneling Data Protocol" is proposed to encapsulate and tunnel 1xRTT messages over the LTE network. Additional changes are needed to 3GPP2 specifications to support mobility parameters in TS 36.331 for CSFB.
