Abstract
During the past 5 years, domestic VoIP service has grown rapidly absorbing more than 8 million subscribers. More recently, the increase of enterprise or institutional subscribers become more dominant than individual subscribers. Supporting emergency services such as 119 in these scaled up VoIP services is very essential. In current domestic VoIP networks, the VoIP terminal's location information which are provided to the PSAP with the arriving emergency call depends on the information which are entered at the subscription time or updated by the subscribers when the terminal is moved to other place. This manual provision of location information which requires the user's intervention can result in serious failure in saving people in emergency situations, in case that users are negligent in entering the information or users enter the wrong information. In this paper, we propose an enhanced mechanism in which the terminal's location information is automatically offered by the network for emergency services in ethernet-based enterprise VoIP networks.
