Embodiment

The present invention discloses a kind of system and method thereof of automatic dialing mode transformation.In below of the present invention, describing in detail, will multiple specific details be described so that complete description of the present invention is provided.Yet, concerning the personnel that know correlation technique, can not need to use these specific detail just can implement the present invention, perhaps can be by utilizing the assembly or the method that substitute to implement the present invention.Under other situation, do not explain known method, program, parts and circuit especially, in order to avoid unnecessary obscure emphasis of the present invention.

Please refer to Fig. 1, this is a system architecture diagram of the present invention, include input module 150, refer to the device of entity at this, for example: keyboard, joystick, button, remote controller or Touch Screen etc. are available for users to the device doing to import, in order to receive the signal that the user imported, for example: the purpose telephone number that receives user's input, receive the setting that routing table (routing table) 130 is set up in user's input, or receive many groups of switching values of imposing a condition or the like that dial that the user sets.

Handover module 140 is connected to by circuit initialized protocol (SIP, Session InitiationProtocol) networking telephone (VoIP that sets up of framework, Voice over Internet Protocol) module 120 and general telephone network (PSTN, Public Switched Telephone Network) module 110, can switch the value of imposing a condition according to purpose telephone number and the dialing in the routing table 130 that the user imported, judge to use which kind of dial mode to dial, then switch as if different with the dial mode of presetting at present, wherein network telephone module 120 is for passing through VoIP communication protocol, with the digital signal form voice signal, then is with analog form to transmit voice signal in general telephone network module 110 by IP network.

Link block 160 is in order to receive and to transmit speech data, include: FXO (Foreign eXchangeOffice, FXO) interface is connected to switch (PBX, Private Branch eXchange) general telephone network mode that can be traditional is conversed, FXS (Foreign eXchange Station, FXS) interface can with common analog telephone, facsimile machine link to each other to be responsible for forward call or to be faxed, and IP (Internet Protocol)/WFXO (Wireless Foreign eXchange Office, wireless external exchange) interface is in order to answer the calling from wire/radio network phone user.

130 of routing tables store many groups of dialing switching values of imposing a condition that the user sets, and as shown in Figure 2, this is a routing table 130 embodiment schematic diagrames of the present invention, and including " preamble " field can be in order to the kenel of record source kenel and preamble; " length minimum limit " field can be in order to the length minimum limit value of record purpose telephone number; " length maximum constraints " field can be in order to the length KB limit of record purpose telephone number; " purpose interface " field record from which kind of communication interface to carry out the sending and receiving of data; Whether " signaling transfer point " field can allow to carry out the data sending and receiving with the communication interface of other kind when the purpose interface engaged line of former setting in order to record.

Part at setting data comprises: default route district 210, and in order in the time can't finding identical route to set, the default routing mode that can use according to the kenel of originating; Another is partly for setting route district 220, switch the value of imposing a condition in order to the many groups of dialing that the record user sets, classifying example as with local area the 1st explains as follows: preamble for " 11 " promptly be the expression when input module 150 receive the user import the purpose telephone number be 11 the beginning, and length minimum limit value and length KB limit be 3 promptly represent the purpose telephone number only be 3 yards (for example: 110/112/119 etc.); Therefore, when the user dials 119, then lead to by traditional general telephone network module 110, if the FXO interface is in the engaged line state at present, other user that expressed possibility is also just using the FXO interface at present in receiving calls, when being set at the state of " enable ", can use at once as other idle communication interfaces such as IP interfaces according to " signaling transfer point " field.

As shown in Figure 3, be the flow chart of automatic conversion Dialing Method disclosed in this invention, it includes the following step:

At first, receive the purpose telephone number (step 310) of user's input, suppose that it is 0912345678 that input module 150 receives the phone that the user imports.Then, judge again and be preset as which kind of dial mode (step 320) at present, if do not run into the engaged line situation and occur as example last time to dial 119, then default being used the FXO interface, just use general telephone network (step 340), therefore, according to imposing a condition of Fig. 2, meet the setting of setting the 2nd row in the route district 220 as can be known, and the purpose interface setting that uses is the IP interface, judge according to routing table 130 whether dial the purpose telephone number needs the result of switching dial mode (step 350) to learn the switching dial mode that needs, therefore become and switch to network telephone module 120 by handover module 140 and dial; Same, if last time dialing 119 runs into the engaged line situation and occurs as example, then default being used the IP interface, just use the networking telephone (step 330), judge according to routing table 130 whether dial the purpose telephone number needs the result of switching dial mode (step 350) to learn it is not need the switching dial mode, this moment, handover module 140 did not just need effect; At last, just can set up online lead to (step 360) by internet 190 by link block 160.

For making routing table 130 of the present invention can meet the use habit that the user calls, please refer to Fig. 4, this sets up the method flow diagram of routing table 130 for the present invention, just can set dialing according to its custom of calling at ordinary times by this method user and switch and to impose a condition, allow the setting elasticity more of routing table 130.At first, receive the user and carry out the setting (step 410) of setting up routing table 130, to handle the work of writing routing table entry 130 from input module 150; Then, the prompting user sets the information (step 420) of field, for example shows by voice or on screen: please import preamble; Suppose that it all is that custom is called with traditional general telephone network that the user dials local telephone usually, one charge not high, two come speech quality also more secure, therefore can be after keying in " 2 " on the input module 150, represent that this field is set and finish (step 430) to key in a special keys (as: non-numeric buttons such as " * ", " # "); The prompting user that so continues imports purpose telephone number length minimum limit, purpose telephone number length maximum constraints and purpose interface, after finishing a dialing and switching the input impose a condition, equally also can key in a special keys and represent that this dialing switches to impose a condition to set and finish that input module 150 learns that behind the input signal of receiving this special keys the user finishes (step 440) with setting; At last, each field settings of renewable storage routing table 130, shown in the 3rd row of setting route district 220 among Fig. 2 promptly for this reason a dialing switch and impose a condition.Identical notion, we also can increase two time fields newly in routing table 130: zero-time and termination time, can be in order to carry out the switching of dial mode according to this time condition value.

Therefore, the present invention is except allowing the user calls with different dial modes, more can be by the purpose telephone number of judging user's input, reach automatic selection automatic network phone module or general telephone network module Outgoing Call, person capable of reducing using needs the trouble of manual switchover, more can reach the purpose of Jie Fei and good speech quality.
