0  Introductionp. 7

Application Servers can store their service data on the HSS through the Sh interface as transparent data, meaning that the HSS may not be aware of the structure and the semantics of this data, only the Application Server has this knowledge. Standardizing the data formats would facilitate interoperation among Application Servers supplied by the same, or different, vendors. These Application Server vendors may be primary and secondary suppliers of the same service provider within a service provider's IMS network. This is especially true for the Multimedia Telephony supplementary services that can achieve a wide deployment and are here addressed by this specification.
IMS CAMEL subscription data may be transferred to the IM-SSF AS using Sh interface.

1  Scopep. 7

This specification standardizes
  • the structure and the coding of the service data that are transported over the Sh interface between an Application Server supporting Multimedia Telephony supplementary services as defined in 3GPPP TS 22.173 and the HSS. Two optional formats are specified. One is based on a binary coding of the service data and supports the subset of MMTEL services corresponding to PSTN/ISDN and CS supplementary services. The other uses an XML format and supports the full set of MMTEL Services.
  • the structure and the coding of a set of generic IMS user group data over the Sh interface.
  • the structure and the coding of the service data (ODB Information for IMS Oriented Services) that are transported over the Sh interface between an Application Server supporting services that are subject to IMS-ODB as defined in TS 22.041 and the HSS.
  • the structure and the coding of the IMS CAMEL subscription data transported using Sh interface.

4  Generalp. 10

MMTEL/IMS CAMEL Services are supported by Application Servers that may store the Service Data attached to each user in the HSS via the Sh Interface. This data is referred to as transparent data and is understood syntactically but not semantically by the HSS.
Different ASs providing MMTEL/IMS CAMEL services for a given user may be required. Therefore several ASs should access, utilise and update the Service Data for the user stored in the HSS. The ASs should interoperate and share the Service Data attached to this user.
To aid the interoperability between ASs, this specification defines:
  • the structure and the coding of the Service Data transferred over the Sh interface between the HSS and the ASs for MMTEL/IMS CAMEL services,
  • the use of the Sh procedures to ensure the sharing and synchronization of these Service Data between ASs,
  • additional transfer mechanism such as base64 encoding.
Two optional formats are defined for the structure and the coding of the MMTEL Service Data:
  • A XML format supporting the Service Data for the complete MMTEL Services.
  • A binary format supporting the Service Data for the subset of MMTEL Services corresponding to the PSTN/ISDN and CS supplementary services.
An XML format is defined for the structure and the coding of the IMS CAMEL Subscription Data.

Up
The MMTEL communications of a given user equipment are routed to an AS according to the content of the filter criteria.
If AS interoperability is supported, the Service Data attached to a user shall be stored in the HSS and the AS shall access and update, when required, the Service Data via the Sh interface.
The user may configure some of its Service Data via the Ut interface, via SIP based user configuration as described in TS 24.238, or via other means.
Some Service Data is configured by the service provider e.g. from its OSS, either directly into the HSS or via an AS that will store these Service Data in the HSS.
The AS associated to a given user for MMTEL services may vary over time.
The same format of the Service Data stored in the HSS shall be supported for interoperability between ASs utilising the Service Data.
