MISSION CRITICAL PUSH TO TALK SERVICES

Abstract:

A method for enabling Mission Critical Push to Talk (MCPTT) services in a telecommunications network is presented. The method is performed by a mobile terminal (MT) and incudes receiving an imminent peril or emergency MCPTT call from at least one other MT, the call indicating an emergency state for the at least one other MT, determining a number of MTs indicating an emergency state, and raising an MCPTT emergency alert if the determined number of MTs indicating an emergency state exceeds a threshold. An MT, an escalation server, a computer program, and a computer program product are also presented.
