FIELD: communication.
SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to a method and apparatus for capability exchange signaling, transmitting orientation sensor information from UEs to network servers. Capability exchange signaling techniques provide orientation sensor information from UEs to network servers. Orientation sensor information describes a device's support for orientation sensor capabilities, or a current orientation state of the device. Based on such information, a multimedia server provides different encoded versions of multimedia content for different device orientation modes supported by the device. Server may also adapt, dynamically and in real-time, media capture or transcode parameters for creating content tailored (i.e., optimized) for the device's current orientation mode, or for its various intermediate orientation states and spatial positions.
EFFECT: technical result is optimizing communication service search based on UE orientation capabilities.
