Voice over LTE (VoLTE) is the standard for voice call setup in LTE networks. When VoLTE is deployed, phones will not need to fallback to 3G for voice calls.
VoLTE uses IMS SIP signaling to set up voice calls. The following VoLTE call flow describes the IMS call setup and release. An example of sending an SMS over IMS is also included. Sample RTP and RTCP messages are also shown in the flow.
You can dig deep into the individual messages in the flow by clicking on the message titles in the sequence diagram.
