Description

Strengthen the equipment and the method for caller id service
Background of invention
Technical field
The present invention relates generally to the equipment and the method for caller id service.In more detail, the present invention relates to even when calling party is not relevant with concrete telephone number the method and system of call identifying side.
Description of Related Art
There has been the long duration in the caller id service.Current, the conversation between the U.S. telephone subscriber is based upon on the basis of numbering plan, and this numbering plan requires by ten Directory Numbers, is that calling party telephone number is discerned every subscriber lines.This number comprises three area codes in certain geographical zone of definition, then is three office codes of certain central office of sign, then is four subscribers feeder identification numbers that provided by the central office again.
When the calling party trial contact with certain ten Directory Number or A number had the callee of certain ten Directory Number or B number, the A number was sent to the telephone communication unit at callee place.The previous calling party name that has been associated with this A number is presented on this telephone communication unit.This device can be to keep the autonomous device of electronic communication with desktop telephones, or is completely integrated in the telephone set, for example mobile cellular telephone.Getting in touch by the callee of the caller number of calling party name and appointment finished.More original caller id service only provides caller number to the callee, and the calling party name is not provided.
Usually, caller id provides enough services to callee user.Yet under many situations, the current implementation of this service can not operate effectively.For example, if the callee is the screening phone, and calling party must be made a phone call with the phone directory number (for example in emergency circumstances using pay phone) that does not have a positive connection with own name, so when this telephone number that can't discern appears on the caller id display at callee place, called this phone that do not connect probably.In addition, when phone of several kinsfolk Chang Gongyong, understanding is which kinsfolk just attempting making a phone call can be very useful.Traditional caller id service only provides the A number, or provides and the connected name of A number for the purpose of identification at most.This can not satisfy callee's needs.
So required is when calling party identity is not relevant with booked call side's telephone number, and caller id service method and system are provided.This method and system can connect by the PIN that calling party name and certain is predetermined the callee, so only needs to send this identification code to the callee, just can discern associated call side's name.Use this method and system, even the member of the same family uses same calling telephone number, but also unique identification oneself.In addition, promptly use unfamiliar or beyond all recognition telephone number to call out callee's (usually occurring under urgent or other situations), but also unique identification calling party name.
Summary of the invention
Can realize system and method for the present invention by two kinds of different approach: terminal solution or Networking Solutions ﹠ provisioned.Terminal scheme adopts cellular phone terminal, or comprises the telephone communication unit of index in other memories.This index comprises and the tabulation of calling party telephone number one to one of calling party name.Can specify these names to be " label ".This index is according to personal identification code (PIC) ordering, and wherein, each label is unique corresponding with PIC.When cell phone receives the PIC of a part of setting up as initial communication or conversation, scan described tabulation, show the label or the name that interrelate with this PIC.
Terminal scheme also comprises the switching center that can receive PIC and calling party telephone number or B number in call establishment.Like this, when calling party was dialed certain certain phone of cellular phone terminal trial connection, PIC will send to this switching center (utilizing special functional code warning switching center to note receiving PIC).After determining that the terminal use supports to scan PIC and distributes local provisional Directory Number (TLDN), send PIC and B number to the terminal station.If terminal is not supported, send A number (being caller number) so to travelling carriage, the label value that scanning and demonstration and this A number interrelate.
Terminal scheme needs the telephone communication unit of programmed scans PIC, and network plan is realized PIC scanning in current attaching position register that links mutually with the callee (HLR) or Visitor Location Register (VLR).At this moment, HLR accepts PIC (if the callee has subscribed this service) and in this HLR this PIC is matched mutually with A ' number, and this A ' number is elected as the part of its user profiles in advance by the callee.HLR A ' number substitutes the A number of calling party, and sends it to travelling carriage so that utilize the traditional caller id module that is positioned at called mobile station to scan.Show label or the calling party name that interrelates with this A ' number at callee's travelling carriage then.In this network plan is implemented, in HLR and do not preserve described index in callee's terminal.Network plan adopts black phone or caller id device, the modification when being used for terminal scheme before needn't carrying out.
Method of the present invention comprises following steps: receive PIC and calling party telephone number in switching center; Send this PIC to telephone communication unit (for terminal scheme); And the index in the search communicator is so that seek selected calling party name corresponding to this PIC.In network plan, not that PIC is sent to travelling carriage from HLR or VLR, but at HLR/VLR interscan PIC, and with itself and certain A ' number pairing.When implementing this scheme, A ' number is sent to travelling carriage, carry out tradition scanning, and the label corresponding to this A ' number in this travelling carriage is shown to the callee according to calling party identity.
Summary of drawings
Can more fully understanding be arranged to structure of the present invention and operation by the following detailed description of doing with reference to accompanying drawing, in the accompanying drawing:
The system and the structure of Fig. 1 graphic extension terminal scheme of the present invention;
The system and the structure of Fig. 2 graphic extension network plan of the present invention.
Current most preferred embodiment describes in detail
Any approach realizes system and method for the present invention in available following two kinds of approach: terminal scheme or network plan.Terminal scheme adopts telephone communication unit, and exemplary is through improved especially cell phone.Network plan adopts such as the cell phone communicator of expecting someone's call, and the attaching position register (HLR) or the Visitor Location Register (VLR) of special programming, or other wireless communication network nodes.
Get back to Fig. 1 now, have a look in order to realize the terminal scheme of system and method for the present invention.In the present embodiment, system 20 of the present invention comprises travelling carriage (MS) 80 and HLR/VLR60.Typically, HLR 60 communicates by switching center's (for example serving Mobile Servicing Center (SMSC) 70) and MS 80.Also can substitute the MS 80 to be referred to as telephone communication unit by the independent component (being similar to traditional caller id device) that carries out electronic communication with traditional phone.MS 80 possesses the memory 85 that includes tabulation or index 250.Index 250 comprises tactic a series of PIN (PICS), and the latter and several A number inequality (being calling party telephone number) and " label " or calling party name interrelate.User MS 80 can set up index 250 according to any order, makes each PIC in the index 250 corresponding to suitable label or calling party name.In addition, this index also can comprise a series of A numbers, and this is known by the caller id technology.Yet, in traditional caller id service, without any PIC, do not allow identical A number in the index yet.
Implement terminal scheme of the present invention by the following method: calling party is at first operated the phone 30 that possesses keyboard 35, input function sign indicating number, PIC and callee (corresponding to MS 80) telephone number.In Fig. 1, use the combination of combination 100 presentation function sign indicating numbers, PIC and called number.For example, a typical combination 100 is a series of numerals that are similar to " * 555+01+333-333-3333 ", wherein, clauses and subclauses " * 555 " are function code (it make HLR/VLR 60 can accept PIC), clauses and subclauses " 01 " are PIC, and clauses and subclauses " 333-333-3333 " are the B numbers of callee's (herein being MS 80).Combination 100 sends to public telephone network (PSTN) 40 by wireline interface 90.On the other hand, can substitute phone 30 with cell phone, under the sort of situation, wired connection 90 must be substituted by air interface 90, and PSTN 40 must be substituted by base station (BS) 40.
At this moment, PSTN/BS 40 connects 110 by network and sends combination 100 to switching center, for example GMSC (gateway mobile switching center) (GMSC) 50, and the location request message 120 that comprises this combination 100 is sent to HLR 60 or VLR 60 from GMSC 50, and is received by program module 69.In step 130, inquiry is to determine whether the user profiles in the HLR/VLR 60 shows that MS 80 supports the PIC scan function in HLR/VLR 60.If support, then the route request information 140 that contains B number (be called number or corresponding to the number of MS 80) and PIC is sent to Mobile Servicing Center, for example serves Mobile Servicing Center (SMSC) 70 from HLR/VLR 60.
SMSC 70 1 receives B number and PIC, just sends beep-page message 150 to MS 80.In step 160 paging receiving message 150, distribute local provisional Directory Number (TLDN) to give MS 80 at step 170 SMSC 70.Then, contain the alarm information of this PIC to MS 80 in step 200 from SMSC 70 transmissions.This also reminds from SMSC 70 and sends the feedback message as a result 180 to HLR/VLR 60 that contains this TLDN.TLDN again as a result of feedback message 190 send to GMSC from 50HLR/VLR 60. Message 180 and 190 is used to finish the transaction initiated by original position request message 120 and route request information 140.
After MS 80 received the alarm information 200 that contains PIC, at the index 250 that step 210 scans in the memory 85 that is comprised in MS 80 with the software module among the MS 80 87, trial was with certain label pairing in this PIC and the index 250.In step 220, the label corresponding to this PIC is presented at (or by voice informing user) on the display 82 of MS 80.If the user of MS 80 is willing to, can reply this phone in step 230, finish conversation in step 240 and connect.If there is not label to match, then show (informing) A number corresponding to this PIC.
The inquiry result of above series of steps supposition step 130 in HLR/VLR is the caller id service that MS 80 supports enhancing of the present invention.If this inquiry result is to negate the result, promptly do not support this business, the route request information 140 that sends to SMSC 70 so will only be carried the A number of called telephone 30.The alarm information 200 that sends to MS 80 also will carry the A number and not carry PIC.Like this, the scanning imaging system modules 87 in the MS 80 use A number rather than PIC go with index 250 in the label pairing.MS 80 displays 82 can show (or passing through voice informing) label corresponding to the A number then, rather than corresponding to the label of PIC.Other steps of this process are constant.The call establishment when phone 30 is submitted any PIC to is not identical to should be pointed out that this alternative call establishment and calling party.
Graphic extension among Fig. 1 shows that the MS 80 that possesses memory 85 is telephone communication units of the present invention.Yet specifically developed intelligence interface box (being similar to traditional caller id module of current use) also can be connected with conventional telephone terminal, is used to provide the caller id service of enhancing of the present invention.In this case, telephone communication unit of the present invention comprises the ip intelligent peripherals that can carry out electronic communication with conventional telephone terminal.
Like this, the index 250 of memory 85 can comprise first group and a plurality of label or calling party name second group of a plurality of calling party telephone numbers or A number.According to the 3rd group of a plurality of PIC, with a plurality of labels or calling party name second group in each number one to one mode retrieve selected some numbers in a plurality of calling party telephone numbers or A number first group.In the index 250, PICS is unique, and label and A number can be replicated arbitrary number of times.
Also reside in program module 87 in the memory 85 and be suitable for receiving previously selected PIC from the network node of HLR/VLR 60 normally, and in index 250 search corresponding to selected calling party name or the label of the previously selected PIC that it received.Select this PIC in the 3rd group of a plurality of PICS from memory 85 and index 250.Network node 60, for example HLR or VLR are suitable for the receiving function sign indicating number, and this function code is impelled previously selected PIC is sent to telephone communication unit or MS 80.
Terminal scheme possesses following some advantages: the terminal use can be in the content of local call communicator 80 direct assigned indexes 250; And, corresponding to same A number, can utilize different PIC to import a plurality of labels or calling party name.That is to say,, then can specify different PIC to them if there are two brothers in the same family address all to wish differently to identify oneself individually with the other side.Be suitable for too even their A number is identical.Certainly, if MS 80 does not support this business, the A number that MS 80 receives can match with first label corresponding to this A number, and can show label of this first pairing at MS 80.
Turn to Fig. 2 now, have a look in order to realize the network or tradition (legacy) scheme of system and method for the present invention.In this case, index 260 is retained in the HLR/VLR 60 interior corresponding memory 65.Calling party utilizes phone 30 to send the initial step of combination 100 to GMSC 50 and HLR/VLR 60 identical with described in the terminal scheme by PSTN/BS 40.Yet at this moment, whether inquiry MS 80 users subscribe the caller id service (promptly whether allowing this node to receive this PIC) of enhancing of the present invention is carried out in step 265.If answer is sure, then the program module 67 in the HLR/VLR 60 is used the mode scanning index 260 identical with terminal scheme.Yet in the present embodiment, pairing PIC is used for substituting the A number that is sent to HLR/VLR 60 by location request message 120 with A ' number (being primary number).Then, contain the route request information 140 of B number of MS 80 and the A ' number of alternative phone 30 actual A numbers and send to SMSC70 together.
As before, at step 150 beep-page message MS 80, and confirm described paging in step 160.Behind step 170 distribution T LDN, alarm information 200 is sent to MS 80 from SMSC 70, A ' number is carried to MS 80.In the caller id technical field well-known and be carried to that table 88 in the memory 85 of MS 80 is scanned so as with the A ' number pairing that is equal to certain label.The user of MS 80 chosen in advance the value of table 88 so that show corresponding to the label value of selected A ' number in advance.
In step 215,, just on display 82, show the corresponding label that (or inform by synthetic speech) selected from table 88 in case MS 80 has finished the scanning of his-and-hers watches 88 in step 225.At this moment, in step 230, the user of MS 80 can determine to answer the call, and can set up described conversation fully in step 240.
Adopt this process supposition of network plan system 20 whether to support that about MS 80 users the inquiry result of the business of enhancing of the present invention is sure in step 265.If this inquiry result negates that then the A number of phone 30 rather than previously selected A ' number are sent to the SMSC 70 in the route request information 140.The A number of alarm information 200 portable phones 30 rather than A ' number be to MS 80 then, and, utilize A number rather than A ' number to come scan table 88 in step 215.Like this, the result who shows (or declaration) will be label or the calling party name corresponding to A number rather than A ' number.Other steps of this process are constant.
Should be pointed out that network plan can not provide a plurality of PIC to the single A ' number that is kept in the index 260.Like this, show in step 225 that the label of (or declaration) at first is scanned the A ' number that program scanning arrives in can be always corresponding to the PIC that is kept in the index 260.If do not find label, then show or announce that giving the user's will be A ' number oneself corresponding to this A ' number.
In alternative embodiment of the present invention, storage tags or calling party name rather than A ' number in table 260.That is to say that alternative table 260 can comprise a series of PINs, they are corresponding one by one with a series of labels or calling party name.If in the step 265 caller id service of enhancing of the present invention of having determined MS 80 consumer premises, the method scanning index 260 described before using and being similar to of the program modules 67 in the HLR/VLR 60 so.Yet in the present embodiment, pairing PIC is used for substituting the A number that is sent to HLR/VLR 60 by location request message 120 with label.Then, contain the route request information 140 of B number of MS 80 and the label of alternative phone 30 actual A numbers and send to SMSC 70 together.Therefore, send label rather than A ' number.
Equally, at step 150 paging MS 80, and confirm described paging in step 160.Behind step 170 distribution T LDN, alarm information 200 is sent to MS 80 from SMSC 70, and label (replacing A ' number) is carried to MS 80.MS 80 in the present embodiment, needn't use table 88 again, because can directly utilize label show Calls side name.Certainly, will adopt program module in MS 80, program module 87 for example shown in Figure 1 is determined the user who has received label and be shown to MS 80.If determine that in step 265 user of MS 80 does not subscribe the business of this enhancing of the present invention, then the A number of phone 30 rather than label are sent to the SMSC 70 in the route request information 140.It is identical that all the other steps of described process are caught up with the step of stating when A number replacement A ' number sends to SMSC 70.
Though present invention is described with reference to specific embodiment,, and do not mean that and think that this description is limited in limited implication.With reference to described description of the present invention, the professional and technical personnel will understand the various modifications of the disclosed embodiments and alternative embodiment of the present invention.Therefore, our imagination is that appending claims belongs to those modifications of the present invention or its equivalent with covering.
