Abstract  Abstract

A mobile communications terminal communicates data using a mobile communications network. The mobile communications network comprising one or more base stations operable to provide a wireless access interface for the communications terminals;and one or more mobility managers operable to send and receive signalling packets for controlling user data communications between communications terminals and a destination. The communications terminal is operable to communicate packets with one or more base stations in the mobile communications system via a wireless access interface provided by the one or more base stations;and to send a signalling packet to one or more mobility managers of the mobile communications system, the signalling packet comprising user data intended for a destination, prior to establishing a signalling connection with the one or more mobility managers. The one or more mobility managers are operable, upon reception of a signalling packet from a communications terminal and comprising user data intended for a destination, to detect that the packet is not associated with any established signalling connection between the one or more mobility managers and this communication device. The one or more mobility managers are operable, responsive to said detection, to transmit the user data comprised in the signalling packet to the destination. Accordingly a short message may be sent in a reduced context or context-less manner in a mobile communications network.
