Zusammenfassung:A transcoder-free operation (TrFO) implementation is disclosed that provides backward-compatibility, or interworking between nodes supporting Iu UP version 1 and version 2. A media gateway (MGW) on the terminating side of a prospective call detects mismatching RFCI values between an originating and terminating side of a prospective call, such as may occur when an originating MGW supports Iu UP version 2 and a terminating Radio Network Controller (RNC) supports Iu UP version 1. The terminating MGW performs a mapping and translation function to convert RFCI values associated with Iu UP version 2 to those of version 1, or vice versa, so as to accommodate the terminating RNC supporting Iu UP version 1.
