Mediation systems and methods for hybrid networks including an IMS
network. A system and method mediates an IMS network having a serving
call state control function (S-CSCF) for providing session control for
user endpoint (UE) devices with an alternative network to create a hybrid
network. A service and corresponding service request code are defined to
utilize at least a subset of capabilities provided by said alternative
network. The S-CSCF is provisioned to identify and receive an alternative
network service request message from a UE, including providing a call
model having at least one filter code to associate said alternative
network service code with at least one application server (AS) dedicated
to serving alternative network service requests, said AS being responsive
to service point triggers (SPTs). The AS is in communication with and
capable of controlling delivery of at least a subset of services provided
by said alternative network. The alternative network is a wireless
broadcast network, such as a DVB-H network or a forward link only (FLO)
network. The IMS network and S-CSCF and ASs are provisioned to provide
two-way transport for interactive services for said hybrid network. The
call model for alternative network services is constructed as a dynamic
call model.
