The result that described retransmission unit 134 is used for the secondary route of carrying out according to 132 pairs of transferred numbers of inquiry unit transmits this short message.
Since short message service center and short messaging gateway both can be discrete also can be integrated, so the part and each device thereof that are used for carrying out Short Message Service Call forwarding in the communication system 100 ' are not limited in short message service center or in short messaging gateway.
Be to be understood that, for convenience of explanation, parts related to the present invention in the communication system only are shown among Figure 1B, and ignore other uncorrelated assemblies (as base station, RNC etc.), also only two users only are shown simultaneously, but this communication system can comprise any amount of user that power system capacity allows.
The workflow of the communication system 100 ' execution of Figure 1B is described hereinafter with reference to Fig. 2.As shown in Figure 2, this process enters step 210 subsequently from step 200.In step 210, described receiving system 131 receives the note that sends to number B from number A, and this note is sent to inquiry unit 132.
In step 220, inquiry unit 132 responses are received note from receiving system 131, carry out routing inquiry to HLR, to determine whether number B is provided with Short Message Service Call forwarding.
Query Result in response to inquiry unit 132 shows that number B is provided with Short Message Service Call forwarding, and in step 230, alternative 133 uses the transferred number F of terminal B to replace its number B.
Next, in step 240, in response to finishing described replacement operation, the transferred number F after 132 pairs of replacements of described inquiry unit carries out the secondary route.
Then, in step 250, retransmission unit 134 is transmitted described note according to the route that 132 couples of transferred number F of inquiry unit inquire.
Subsequently, this process finishes in step 260.
More than described according to The general frame of the present invention and flow chart.As previously mentioned, the present invention relates to communication terminal, therefore use the present invention, may relate to following four kinds of concrete conditions the situation of its Short Message Service Call forwarding to other communication terminals or the preceding IM of forwarding to software:
1. the communication terminal that Short Message Service Call forwarding is arrived other communication terminals sends note,
2. the communication terminal that Short Message Service Call forwarding is arrived other communication terminals receives note,
3. the communication terminal that Short Message Service Call forwarding is arrived IM software sends note by IM software,
4. the communication terminal that Short Message Service Call forwarding is arrived IM software receives note by IM software.
For above-mentioned the 1st kind of situation, it is the same with traditional note transmittance process, be not the problem that the present invention is concerned about, but 2-4 kind situation all can relate to improvement of the present invention, below will describe one by one.
Figure G051C7688020051213D000081
Here, suppose that still the user of terminal A is number A for user A, terminal number, the user of terminal B is that user B, terminal number are number B; User B may record the request that Short Message Service Call forwarding is set for terminal B among the HLR, with another communication terminal F1 of its Short Message Service Call forwarding to number F1.
Described terminal A, terminal B and terminal F1 can be same type terminal (for example, be PHS or be the Global Link mobile phone), also can be dissimilar terminal (for example, terminal A be the every household easily, terminal B is that Global Link mobile phone, terminal F1 are PHS etc.), as long as terminal A, B, F1 support short message.
In this case, user A sends SMS message to terminal B with terminal A, and performed process as shown in Figure 3.This process begins from step 300, enters step 310 subsequently.
In step 310, short message service center receives and mails to the short message of terminal B and it is transferred to inquiry unit 132 from terminal A.
In step 320, inquiry unit 132 by and HLR between signaling determine whether terminal B is provided with Short Message Service Call forwarding.
As everyone knows, HLR is mainly used in the relevant user's of storage personal profiles information (for example, the service of user's identity, order etc.).In the present invention, whether be provided with the such information of Short Message Service Call forwarding and equally also can be recorded among the HLR, so that carry out routing inquiry.For this business of Short Message Service Call forwarding, can store (but being not limited to) following message among the HLR: preceding commentaries on classics flag bit, preceding commentaries on classics condition and transferred number.
Preceding commentaries on classics flag bit is used to identify certain communication terminal and whether is provided with Short Message Service Call forwarding, for example can represent not to be provided with preceding commentaries on classics with binary zero, and represent to be provided with preceding commentaries on classics with binary one.
Preceding commentaries on classics condition can include, but is not limited to Call Forwarding Unconditional and Call Forwarding-Unreachable." Call Forwarding Unconditional " can refer under any circumstance all short message be carried out preceding commentaries on classics." Call Forwarding-Unreachable " can be for example just short message to be carried out preceding commentaries on classics when the user shuts down.
According to the difference of preceding commentaries on classics destination, transferred number can have different forms.For to another communication terminal (promptly with Short Message Service Call forwarding, the situation of Fig. 3), transferred number is the number (being number F1 in Fig. 3) of this another communication terminal, but for Short Message Service Call forwarding is arrived IM software, transferred number is the number (as hereinafter describing in detail) for showing described communication terminal and IM software binding then.
In step 320, inquiry unit is in order to search the Short Message Service Call forwarding information of terminal B, when the inquiry routing iinformation, send the MAP_SEND_ROUTING_INFO_FOR_SM signaling to HLR, HLR replys the parameter that has increased relevant Short Message Service Call forwarding among the signaling MAP_SEND_ROUTING_INFO_FOR_SM_ACK, shown in italics in the table 1:
MAP-SEND-ROUTING-INFO-FOR-SM
Figure G051C7688020051213D000101
Table 1
In table 1, italics represents that partly HLR replys in the signaling at the professional parameter of adding of Short Message Service Call forwarding, remainder is a conventional parameter, letter M represents the mandatory parameter in the signaling, letter C is represented the parameter according to the condition selection, and the value in "=" expression response signaling equals the value in the demand signalling.
Be provided with at terminal B under the situation of Short Message Service Call forwarding, HLR replys signaling and will reflect this situation by relevant parameters.
In step 330, inquiry unit receive HLR reply signaling MAP_SEND_ROUTING_INFO_FOR_SM_ACK after, judge before whether terminal B is provided with and change flag bit, if this step be judged as "Yes" (promptly, change flag bit for example by set), then show to be provided with Short Message Service Call forwarding, this process enters step 340.
In step 340, further judge whether to satisfy the preceding commentaries on classics condition of terminal B.
If in step 340, be judged as "Yes", commentaries on classics condition before promptly satisfying, then this process enters step 350, replaces the number B of terminal B with transferred number F1, so that this transferred number F1 is carried out the secondary route.
Subsequently, in step 360, according to transmitting this short message at the route results of this transferred number F1.This process finishes in step 380.
If in the "No" that is judged as of step 330, promptly terminal B is not provided with Short Message Service Call forwarding, then in step 370, in the usual way this short message is forwarded to terminal B.
If in the "No" that is judged as of step 340, promptly do not satisfy the Short Message Service Call forwarding condition, for example be provided with " changeing before during shutdown ", and this moment, the user started shooting just in time, then in the usual way this short message was sent to terminal B in step 370 at user B.Then, in step 380, finish this process equally.
Figure G051C7688020051213D000111
Along with user's improving constantly for the portable requirement of portable terminal, people are endless for the pursuit of portable terminal miniaturization, this has made things convenient for the user to carry portable terminal on the one hand, also brought certain difficulty for the user operates this portable terminal but then, for example keyboard is too little and be not easy to import note.
In addition, if customer mobile terminal then can not receive or send note owing to for example battery uses up and can't start shooting.
Under above-mentioned situation of giving an example, if can receive, send note a kind of good selection of will can yet be regarded as by computer network.Therefore, the present invention provides by computer network for the user, particularly by IM software, receives, sends the means of note.
In order to use the present invention, the user needs at first from specific service provider (SP) registration IM software, acquisition is used for the identifier (being called for short the IM identifier) this user of this IM software sign, and terminal (for example, mobile phone) number and this identifier are bound.Being used for IM software of the present invention can comprise based on the IM software of internet and based on the IM software of enterprise network, for example QQ, MSN, Yahoo Messenger, AOL Instant Messenger, IBM Lotus Sametime, AOL AIM enterprise gateway, Jabber Messenger etc.But will be that example is described principle of the present invention mainly below for convenience of explanation, with IM software based on the internet.
The service log-on flow process
Fig. 4 shows the flow chart that carries out IM software operation registration (that is, terminal number and IM identifier being bound).This flow process begins in step 400, enters step 410 subsequently.In step 410, wish that the user who carries out short-message foreward turning downloads based on network note input client software from the service provider, this for example can be that the user is by the software of computer network download such as MSN Messenger.Subsequently, in step 420, the user is registered in this software by the terminal number (for example, cell-phone number 13900000001) of downloaded software with oneself.Next, in step 430, the user is transmitted to short message service center (SMC) by the request that this mobile phone carries out Call Forwarding with hope, and in step 440, short message service center is notified to HLR with this request more then.Flow process shown in Figure 4 finishes in step 450.
Should be pointed out that in the request that the user sends in step 430 needs to comprise transferred number, and transferred number is at this moment constituted by SP access number and the identifier that need carry out the preceding user who changes.Described SP access number is used to identify corresponding service provider, and described user identifier can be the identifier that user's cell-phone number, MSN ID, QQ ID etc. can the unique identification user.In addition, this request can also comprise preceding commentaries on classics condition, commentaries on classics before preceding commentaries on classics condition can comprise when for example shutting down, Call Forwarding Unconditional etc.
The communication terminal that Short Message Service Call forwarding is arrived IM software receives short message by IM software
The user who still supposes terminal A is number A for user A, terminal number, and the user of terminal B is that user B, terminal number are number B; User B may record the request that Short Message Service Call forwarding is set for terminal B among the HLR, with its Short Message Service Call forwarding to IM software for example among the MSN.
Described terminal A, terminal B can be the terminals (for example, be PHS or be the Global Link mobile phone) of same type, also can be dissimilar terminal (for example, terminal A be the every household easily, terminal B is the Global Link mobile phone).
This process as shown in Figure 5.The step 500-540 of this process and step 300-340 shown in Figure 3 are similar, therefore are not described in detail.
Next, in step 550, short message service center replaces the number B of terminal B with transferred number, and transferred number is carried out the secondary route.When carrying out the secondary route, inquiry unit 132 sends the route that the MAP_SEND_ROUTING_INFO_FOR_SM signaling is inquired about transferred number once more.
It is pointed out that transferred number and the transferred number among Fig. 3 among Fig. 5 are different.Since Fig. 5 be with Short Message Service Call forwarding in IM software, transferred number is to show the communication terminal that carries out Short Message Service Call forwarding and the number of IM software binding, for example can be the number B of the Number for access+terminal B of IM software service provider, perhaps can be the identifier (with number B binding) of Number for access+user B in this IM software of IM software service provider.
In step 560, short messaging gateway is routed to Internet Short Message Gateway according to the service provider's Number for access in the transferred number with short message, to be forwarded to the corresponding service provider server by Internet Short Message Gateway according to the route of inquiry.
Then, in step 570, the SP server removes the Number for access prefix (that is, the Number for access of IM software service provider) in the transferred number, and short message is forwarded in the correspondent customer terminal software.Then, this process finishes in step 590.
Note, in the step 570 of Fig. 5, remove the SP access number prefix by Internet server, but this operation also can be before by short message service center or short messaging gateway execution, this also is conspicuous for those skilled in the art.In addition, the concrete mode of removing prefix is not the problem that the present invention is concerned about, does not therefore here describe in detail.
The communication terminal of Short Message Service Call forwarding to IM software sent SMS message by IM software
The related operation of this process as shown in Figure 6.This process enters step 610 then from step 600.In step 610, the user who forwards note to IM software by IM software (for example, MSN) editing short message and sending, thereby note is sent to the SP server.
Next, in step 620, the SP server is forwarded to Internet Short Message Gateway with this note.Then, in step 630, short messaging gateway is forwarded to short message service center with note.Then, in step 640, short message service center sends to destination Mobile Station International ISDN Number with note.This process finishes in step 650.
When the user who is provided with short-message foreward turning sends note by IM software with cell-phone number, its cell-phone number may have SP identification number prefix, this prefix number can be removed by the SP server, perhaps remove by short message service center, short messaging gateway, thus the user's who just sends SMS message that the user of reception short message sees phone number.
