In plain words

TS 24.239 provides protocol details for Flexible Alerting (FA) in the IP Multimedia (IM) Core Network (CN) subsystem. Its call handling is described as "Flexible Alerting (FA) causes a call to a pilot identity to branch the call into several legs to alert several termination addresses (group members) simultaneously." The first leg answered connects to the calling party, and additional calls may be delivered to the FA Pilot Identity at any time.

How this page was made

The facts box and the tables come straight from the 3GPP specification archive and CR database as indexed by 3GPP Scout. An AI model (GPT-6 Luna) wrote the paragraph and named the source of each sentence. Code checked every quote word for word against the stored source text and every number against the cited source. A second AI model from another company (Claude Opus 5.5) reviewed the paragraph against the same sources. The 3GPP documents themselves govern.
