JPH07212470A - Personal voice call origination system - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To automatically originate the name of a caller by his natural voice, to eliminate the need of memorizing a calling destination number and a dial number and to originate a call with an ordinary name. CONSTITUTION:When a number which is personal call origination is judged in a central processing part 8, connection is switched from a register 5 to a voice temporary memory 6 and voice request signals indicating the reception preparation of a calling destination name is completed are transmitted from the voice temporary memory 6. When the calling destination name registered beforehand is inputted from a telephone set in voice, PCM digital signals transmitted through a time division switch 1 are received in the voice temporary memory 6 and the received signals are transferred to a voice comparison part 10 as voice data. The voice comparison part 10 successively reads the areas of a personal voice memory 9 through the central processing part 8 and performs collation and retrieval. When the registered calling destination name is detected, the voice data inside the personal voice memory 9 are transferred to the voice temporary memory 6 and are transmitted from the voice temporary memory 6 to a line circuit 2.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a calling service provided by a subscriber accommodated in a digital exchange.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional telephone exchange apparatus is activated by a special number corresponding to a telephone line and is in a state of receiving a voice call service. The voice input here is used as a voice signal, which is translated and recognized, and shortened. Register as a dial number. When a voice signal is input from the same telephone as when registering when making a call,
This was translated and recognized, converted into a shortened number, and automatically dialed on the line.

[0003]

In the above-mentioned conventional telephone exchange apparatus, it is very important to translate and recognize a voice signal and judge it as a shortened number, to identify a voice signal of an unspecified majority and to translate the word. Difficult to do.

[0004]

According to the personal voice transmission system of the present invention, a voice call is made instead of a dial code from a digital exchange, and the voice call is connected to the exchange. If you want to make a call by registering your voice from the telephone to the dedicated registration area in advance, dial the identification number from the telephone to set to the personal calling state, and set the registered destination name. Characterized by inputting by voice, performing a matching search for the entered destination name from the destination name registered in the corresponding dedicated registration area, reading the destination number of the corresponding destination name, and performing the exchange connection operation. .

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings.

Referring to FIG. 1, a switching device according to an embodiment of the present invention is a time divisional switch (TDS).
W) 1, telephone (TEL) 2, line circuit (L / C) 3 connecting telephones, and office line trunk (COT) 4
And a register (RE
G) 5, a temporary voice memory (VTM) 6 for temporarily storing the voice signal of the destination, a sender (SND) 7 for sending a dial number to another station, and a central processing unit (CC) 8 for exchanging operations. , A personal voice memory (PVM) 9 for storing the destination name and number, and a voice comparison unit (VCP)
10 and 10.

The configuration of the registration storage section of the personal voice memory (PVM) 9 is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, the personal voice memory 9 is managed for each individual number (personal number), and is composed of N destination numbers and destination names (data of PCM signals). .

With reference to FIG. 3, an operation for registering a destination will be described. First, when the telephone 2 goes off-hook, the line circuit 3 is activated and connected to the register 5 via the central processing unit 8. Here, the caller is sent to the caller and the caller dials (registration number +
Password). Based on this dialed number, the central processing unit 8 judges that the call is a personal call registration, the voice temporary memory 6 is dually connected, and the voice request signal indicating that the preparation for receiving the voice signal of the destination name is completed. To the caller, the caller inputs the callee name by voice from the telephone.

In a digital exchange, this voice signal is P
Since it is a digital signal converted into CM, it is received by the voice temporary memory 6. The received digital signal is transferred as audio data to the corresponding audio comparison unit 10 according to an instruction from the central processing unit 8. Here, the central processing unit 8 confirms with the personal voice memory 9 whether this voice data has already been registered. If not registered, it is temporarily stored in the personal voice memory 9 for new registration.

To confirm the voice data temporarily stored in the personal voice memory 9, the central processing unit 8 reads out the registered voice data, transfers the voice data to the voice temporary memory 6, and sends it to the telephone 2 by a PCM signal. It is confirmed to the person that the voice signal has been registered. Dial the next called number. This dial signal is received by the register 5.

The received call destination number is registered and stored in the corresponding area of the personal voice memory 9 via the central processing unit 8, the related operation of registration is completed, and a completion signal is sent to the caller.

Next, with reference to FIG. 4, the operation for making a personal call will be described. First, the telephone set 2 goes off-hook to send a dial tone to the caller, and the caller dials (calling number + password). Here, the operation is similar to the general operation.

The central processing unit 8 assigns a number for personal transmission.
When the judgment is made, the connection from the register 5 to the temporary voice memory 6 is changed, and the temporary voice request signal from the temporary voice memory 6 is prepared. When the caller inputs the destination name registered in advance by voice from the telephone, the voice temporary memory 6 receives the PCM digital signal sent through the time division switch 1. The received signal is transferred to the corresponding audio comparison unit 10 as audio data.

On the other hand, in order to search from the voice data registered in the personal voice memory 9, the voice comparison unit 10 reads out the corresponding areas of the personal voice memory 9 via the central processing unit 8 one after another and collates and searches. To do.

When the registered destination name is detected as a result of the comparison, the corresponding voice data in the personal voice memory 9 is transferred to the temporary voice memory 6 and is sent from there to the line circuit 2 by a PCM signal. The person knows that the destination name is retrieved by the voice signal.

If it is different from the retrieved destination name, the destination name is input again from the telephone. After that, it is the same as the personal transmission.

If no audio signal is input for a certain period of time,
The central processing unit 8 reads out the destination number linked to the destination name registered in the personal voice memory 9, transfers the data of the destination number to the sender 7, and between the sender 7 and the trunk line trunk 4. The central processing unit 8 connects with the time division switch of.

When the time division switch is connected, the sender 7 sends dialed digits to the opposite side and is connected to the destination.

In this embodiment, the speech comparison method is for the user only because the word recognition is not a translation.
High personality.

[0020]

As described above, according to the present invention,
Since it is possible to automatically make calls with names such as "Headquarters", "A Factory", "Friends", etc. with your own voice, it is possible to make calls using everyday names without having to remember the destination number or dial number.

Further, by using a personal number for oneself, it can be used from anywhere in the system.
