Definitions
- the present disclosure relates generally to telecommunication systems and, more particularly, to method of generation of additional voice revenue for mobile carriers by special processing of non-established calls or short messages from/to unavailable subscribers of the telecommunication systems.
- call attempts from a calling subscriber to a called subscriber end with condition of insufficient balance of calling subscriber pre-paid account.
- condition of insufficient balance of calling subscriber pre-paid account indicates that the call cannot be established by telecommunication system until the calling subscriber tops up the balance of his pre-paid account.
- the calling subscriber may be notified of such condition, such as using a predetermined voice message tone to indicate "insufficient balance" condition, hearing an announcement indicating that the call cannot be established by this reason or the like.
- SMS short-messages
- Some telecommunication systems provide a call waiting feature to all or to some of their subscribers.
- the calling subscriber attempts to call the called subscriber
- both subscribers are notified of the situation: the calling subscriber hears a predetermined tone indicating that he is currently a "call waiting" , while the called subscriber also is provided with a notification during his call.
- the called subscriber is able to suspend the current call and switch to the new incoming call. This provides the parties the potential to negotiate an appropriate time to ring back.
- the called subscriber In case the called subscriber does not answer the phone, the called subscriber is notified of the fact that the calling subscriber had been trying to reach the called subscriber, such as using a missed call notification which indicates the number of the called subscriber which is identifiable through a Caller ID feature.
- Proposed method and system of generation of additional revenue for mobile carriers provides the capability of processing of non-established calls and short messages by sending special formed missed call notification to called subscriber. This provides the called party the potential to negotiate an appropriate time to call back to original calling subscriber, resulting increasing of total voice usage of telecommunication system of mobile carrier. This generates additional voice revenue, which could be lost without this method.
- Proposed method and system of generation of additional revenue for mobile carriers also provides the capability of calculating of such additional generated voice revenue of processing of non-established calls and short messages by using reconciliation of telecommunication system call detail records (CDR) and internal system CDRs giving the possibility to extract new additional voice revenue generated by this method.
- CDR telecommunication system call detail records
- This provides the mobile carrier of clear understanding of those part of voice revenue that was generated by this proposed method.
- the problem to be solved by the proposed method, is to create a reliable and user-friendly method for generating of additional voice revenue by performing missed call notifications, realizing the possibility for the calling subscriber, in the condition of non-established calls or short messages, to inform the called subscriber of the calling attempt in near real time manner.

- the telecommunication system may enable subscribers to communicate with one another, such as through calls and transmission of messages.
- the telecommunication system may be provided by a plurality of carriers, such as AT&T TM , T-Mobile TM , Verizon TM , or the like.
- different carriers may utilize equipment that implements different technologies in each core network, however, they may be considered in the same telecommunication system if they can enable two subscribers of the different carriers to communicate. Such communication may be implemented, for example, by having components owned by the different carriers communicate with one another.
- a Mobile Switching Center may be the component to which the devices of the subscribers of a carrier connect.
- the MSC to which the first subscriber connected communicates to a second MSC to which the second subscriber is connected to, which may or may not be owned by a different mobile carrier.
- One technical problem dealt with by the disclosed subject matter is to notify the called subscriber, also referred to as the second subscriber, of an attempt to reach her by the first subscriber when the second subscriber was unavailable, such as in case the line was busy or the device of the second subscriber was detached from the telecommunication system.
- Yet another technical problem dealt with by the disclosed subject matter is to notify the called subscriber, also referred to as the second subscriber, of an attempt to reach her by the first subscriber when the first subscriber has insufficient balance on his pre-paid account.
- Yet another technical problem is to provide such notification without interfering with a current call or without relying on the device of the second subscriber being attached to the telecommunication system at the time the call attempt was performed.
- Yet another technical problem is to provide the notification in the form of a "missed call" , which may be more likely to cause the second subscriber to act upon it than other forms of textual messages, such as a Short Message Service (SMS) message or USSD (Unstructured Supplementary Service Data) message.
- SMS Short Message Service
- USSD Unstructured Supplementary Service Data
- Yet another technical problem is to enable the notification of subscribers that are associated with either the same carriers or with the same carrier as the first subscriber.
- Yet another technical problem is to provide for a component of a telecommunication system that can perform actions in accordance with the disclosed subject matter through a passive connection to other components of the telecommunication system, thereby not requiring other components of the system to be aware of the component and its actions.
- a component may be connected to traditional telecommunication systems and enable to augment their capabilities in accordance with the disclosed subject matter.
- Yet another technical problem is to provide for a component of a telecommunication system that can perform calculation of additional generated revenue caused by callback from the called subscriber after sent notification due to the reason of non-established calls in accordance with the disclosed subject matter through a collection of telecommunication system call detailed records.
- a component of a telecommunication system that can perform calculation of additional generated revenue caused by callback from the called subscriber after sent notification due to the reason of non-established calls in accordance with the disclosed subject matter through a collection of telecommunication system call detailed records.
- Such a component may be connected to traditional telecommunication systems and enable to augment their capabilities in accordance with the disclosed subject matter.
- One technical solution is to detect that a call or short message by the first subscriber to the second subscriber was not established due to one of the conditions caused by a technical reason associated with the first or second subscriber. Based on such detection, and after the unavailability condition ends, a transit call may be placed to the second subscriber and appearing as a call from the first subscriber. The transit call may be disconnected without allowing voice communication to be established between the parties. As a result, the transit call may cause a "missing call" notification to appear on the second subscriber's device. In some exemplary embodiments, the transit call is terminated after the device of the second subscriber acknowledges receipt of the call attempt. As a result the ringing time of the device in response to the transit call may be short or even non-existent.
- the unavailability condition may be a busy condition indicating that the second subscriber is engaged such as being on another call or using line in another manner.
- the unavailability condition may be a detached condition indicating that the communication device of the second subscriber is not attached to the network, such as it currently does not have signal reception, the device is turned off, or the like.
- the unavailability condition may be a condition indicating that the first subscriber is out of balance on his pre-paid account.
- the disclosed subject matter may monitor the status of the device of the second subscriber, such as by monitoring a Home Location Register (HLR) or Service Control Point (SCP) , to determine when the unavailability condition ends.
- HLR Home Location Register
- SCP Service Control Point
- a hidden SMS message may be transmitted to the second subscriber and upon retransmission request of the hidden SMS, the disclosed subject matter may deduce that the second subscriber became available and issue the transit call.
- the disclosed subject matter may provide one transient call to the second subscriber even in case the first subscriber made multiple unsuccessful attempts to call the second subscriber.
- the disclosed subject matter may avoid issuing the transient call in case after the call attempt and before a successful transit call was performed, the first subscriber successfully initiated a call to the second subscriber. In such a case, the disclosed subject matter may avoid issuing the transit call and thereby avoid providing notification that is no longer relevant or that may be duplicative.
- a successful call may be a call that is established (i.e., the first subscriber picks up) .
- a successful call may be a call that does not end in an unavailability condition (e.g., the phone rings but no one picks up) , as such successful call may induce a "missed call" notification on the device of the second subscriber and no additional notification may be desired.
- an unavailability condition e.g., the phone rings but no one picks up
- a "transit call” is a call that is directed towards a subscriber's device and is disconnected about immediately upon the device receiving the call (e.g., starting to ring) .
- ISUP Integrated Services User Part
- a transit ISUP call may be generated by patented system on behalf of the first subscriber and directed towards the second subscriber.
- ACM Address Complete Message
- CPG Call Progress
- REL ISUP Release
- SIP Session Initiation Protocol
- a transit SIP call may be generated on behalf of the first subscriber and directed towards the second subscriber.
- an SIP BYE message may be transmitted thereby clearing the call without allowing the voice communication channel to be established
- a missed call notification is a feature that many telecommunication devices support, and users are accustomed to returning a call in response to such notifications. It may very well be the case that missed call notifications are more effective than other forms of messages, including text messages sent by the users themselves.
- Another effect may be alleviating the disadvantages that are associated with the use of "call waiting” feature.
- the "call waiting” feature may encourage the recipient to run her previous call shorter than originally intended, thus potentially reducing the revenue generated for the carrier.
- the recipient is not encouraged to run the previous call shorter than originally intended, while effectively increasing the probability that the call would be established.
- FIG. 1 showing an illustration of a telecommunication system, in accordance with some exemplary embodiments of the disclosed subject matter.
- Telecommunication System 100 such as a mobile telecommunication system, enables subscribers to communicate with one another using telecommunication devices. It will be understood that though Fig. 1 shows two subscribers, Telecommunication System 100 may support any number of subscribers.
- Subscriber 107 may utilize a Telecommunication Device 105, such as a mobile phone, a smart phone, a telephone, or the like, to communicate with other subscribers, such as Subscriber 197.
- a Telecommunication Device 105 such as a mobile phone, a smart phone, a telephone, or the like, to communicate with other subscribers, such as Subscriber 197.
- Device 105 may connect to Switching Center 130, such as Mobile Switching Center (MSC) .
- Switching Center 130 may maintain contact with Switching Center 130 that is associated with the carrier providing Subscriber 107 the service.
- Switching Center 130 may control the call setup and establishment.
- Switching Center 130 may communicate to Service Control Point (SCP) 150.
- SCP 150 may implement the charging system and may be used to verify that the account associated with calling subscriber is authorized to make such call or SMS, such as based on the defined limitations of the account (e.g., authorization to call premium-rate telephone numbers) , credit in the account (e.g., in case of a pre-paid account) , or the like.
- SCP 150 may be in charge of billing Subscriber 107 for the call.
- Switching Center 130 and SCP 150 may be connected via a Signaling Switch 140 that may be utilized to exchange messages between components of Telecommunication System 100.
- Signaling Switch 140 may be utilized to exchange messages between components of the same carrier.
- Switching Center 130 After Switching Center 130 has verified the authorization of Subscriber 107 to make the call, there may be an attempt to establish a connection to Device 195 of the called subscriber, Subscriber 197.
- Device 195 may be connected to Switching Center 130.
- Device 195 may be connected to another switching center, such as Switching Center 180. It will be understood that Switching Centers 130, 180 may be owned by the same telecommunication carrier or by different telecommunication carriers.
- Device 195 In case Device 195 is attached to the Telecommunication System 100 and is available, a call may be initiated and Device 195 may ring. Upon Subscriber 197 answering the phone call, a voice channel is established between Device 195 and Device 105 through Switching Centers 130, 180.
- Switching Center 180 may transmit a message to Switching Center 130, which in turn may notify Subscriber 107 using a predetermined tone or announcement and may transmit a message to SCP 150 to indicate that the call was not established.
- Detection Module 110 may be connected to Signaling Switch 140 and may monitor messages exchanged through the switch. Detection Module 110 may be configured to detect messages that indicate an unavailability condition, such as a busy condition or a detached condition or insufficient balance. In response to such detection, Detection Module 110 may notify Notification Module 120 that Subscriber 107 had attempted to establish a call to Subscriber 197 and that such attempt failed.
- an unavailability condition such as a busy condition or a detached condition or insufficient balance.
- Detection Module 110 may notify Notification Module 120 that Subscriber 107 had attempted to establish a call to Subscriber 197 and that such attempt failed.
- Notification Module 120 may be configured to issue a notification to Subscriber 197 that would appear as a missed call on Device 195.
- Notification Module 120 may establish a transit call to Device 195 on behalf of Subscriber 107 (e.g., providing the phone number or other unique identifier of Subscriber 107) .
- Notification Module 120 may connect to Switching Center 130 and act as a telecommunication device (e.g., Device 105) .
- the transit call may be implemented, for example, by issuing an ISUP or SIP transit call to Subscriber 197 and upon receiving an ISUP or SIP message that acknowledges that Device 195 is connected and available (e.g., Device 195 is potentially ringing and allowing Subscriber 197 to answer the call) , Notification Module 120 may terminate the call by issuing an ISUP or SIP release message. As a result, a voice channel connection is not established.
- Device 195 may indicate that a call was received but was not answered using a missed call notification. Based on the ID used by Notification Module 120, the missed call is associated with Subscriber 107. Subscriber 197 may then utilize Device 195 to return a call, such as by selecting a missed called from missed calls menu and calling the number associated with the missed call.
- the missed call may be generated in several seconds, minutes, or even an hour, after the failed call attempt by Subscriber 107.
- Notification Module 120 may attempt providing the notification repeatedly, periodically, or the like, until such time as the transit call is received by Device 195 or internal timer expires.
- Notification Module 120 in case Notification Module 120 is unable to provide the notification within a predetermined time, the notification may be dropped. Additionally or alternatively, Notification Module 120 may drop the notification if a predetermined threshold number of attempts were unsuccessful.
- Detection Module 110 and/or Notification Module 120 may avoid providing duplicate notification to Subscriber 197. Instead, a single notification may be issued, thereby notifying Subscriber 197 a single time of plurality of call attempts.
- Detection Module 110 and/or Notification Module 120 may avoid providing any notification to Subscriber 197.
- a Home Location Register (HLR) 160 may indicate to each subscriber of the carrier, a status, such as detached status, attached status, or the like.
- Switching Center 180 may be, directly or indirectly, connected to HLR 170, which may or may not be associated with the same carrier as HLR 160.
- HLR 170 may or may not be associated with the same carrier as HLR 160.
- Subscriber 197 is associated with the same carrier as Subscriber 107, by monitoring status updates to HLR 160, it may be observed when a detached condition of Subscriber 197 ends. Upon such detection, Notification Module 120 may issue the transient call to Subscriber 197.
- HLR 160 may be a database that retains details of each mobile phone subscriber that is authorized to use the core network, such as GSM core network. In some exemplary embodiments, there can be several logical, and physical, HLRs per Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) . In some exemplary embodiments, a single logical HLR may span over several physical nodes. In some exemplary embodiments, the HLR may store details of every SIM card issued of the telecommunication carrier, each of which may be associated with a subscriber. In some exemplary embodiments, HLR 160 may be a system which receives and processes Message Access Protocol (MAP) transactions and messages from elements in the telecommunication network, for example, the location update messages received as mobile phones roam around.
- MAP Message Access Protocol
- a hidden SMS may be transmitted to Subscriber 197.
- a SMS that is transmitted to Subscriber 197 from another carrier, while Device 195 is detached from the network, is dropped.
- a retransmission request is provided, and the SMS is retransmitted.
- HLR 170 may be updated with a status change of Subscriber 197, and in response to such status change, retransmission request is passed to Switching Center 130, and potentially through Signaling Switch 140.
- a hidden SMS also referred to as silent SMS
- Hidden SMS is configured not to be shown on screen of Device 195, and therefore Subscriber 197 may be unaware of its content or even the fact that it was transmitted.
- a different carrier may be alerted when Subscriber 197 becomes attached to Telecommunication System 100. This mechanism may be utilized to alert Notification Module 120 that the transient call may be performed as the detached condition has ended.
- SCP 150 may be connected to Reconciliation Module 115 to exchange call detailed records (CDR) of all processed calls by SCP 150.
- Reconciliation Module 115 is also connected to Notification Module 120 to exchange call detailed records (CDR) of processed notification events.
- Reconciliation Module 115 might be connected to other Telecommunication System 100 elements to exchange incoming calls detailed records.
- FIG. 2A showing a flowchart diagram of a method, in accordance with some embodiments of the disclosed subject matter.
- Step 200 a first subscriber initiates a call to a second subscriber, such as by dialing the phone number of the second subscriber using a cellular phone or other telecommunication device.
- Step 210 it is detected that the initiated call had failed due to unavailability condition of the second subscriber, such as a busy condition in view of the second subscriber using her line, a detached condition in view of the telecommunication device being turned off or, in case of mobile devices, without signal reception, or the like.
- the failure detection may be performed by a device, such as a Detection Module 110 of Fig. 1, which may be integrated into the telecommunication system as separate component or embedded in another component.
- Step 220 a transit call on behalf of the first subscriber is performed to the second subscriber.
- the transient call is performed after the unavailability condition ends and therefore the telecommunication device of the second subscriber is able to receive the transient call.
- the telecommunication device may indicate a missed call notification based on the transient call.
- the transient call may be initiated by a notification module, such as 120 of Fig. 1.
- the second subscriber is notified of the call by the missed call notification on the telecommunication device.
- the missed call notification may be based on the transit call and associated with the call attempt.
- the missed call notification may indicate, based on Caller ID of the transient call, the first subscriber as the subscriber that attempted to reach the second subscriber.
- Step 222 there may be a repetitive attempt to initiate a trans ⁇ t call to the second subscriber until the attempt succeeds.
- the transient call may be performed without a priori knowledge that the unavailability condition has ended. Once the unavailability condition had ended, and in case there is no new unavailability condition, an attempt to establish a transient call succeeds.
- Step 240 after a first call attempt of the first subscriber has failed (200, 210) , the first subscriber makes a second failed attempt to reach the second subscriber.
- the second attempt may fail due to the same unavailability condition, due to another unavailability condition, or the like.
- Step 224 and although the two failed call attempt may have been detected by a detection module, such as 110 of Fig. 1, a single transient call is performed. It will be noted that in some embodiments, multiple attempts to establish the transient call may be performed (e.g., as in Step 222 of Fig. 2B) until a single transient call is successfully established.
- Step 234 though there were multiple attempts to reach the second subscriber, she is notified by a single missed call identification. In accordance with such embodiment, duplicative indications are avoided, as it may be reasonably assumed that both attempts by first subscriber to reach the second subscriber are logically connected and a single notification is sufficient.
- Such an embodiment may also avoid flooding the second subscriber with missed call notifications.
- a second subscriber who is on an airplane and therefore has no signal reception for a long time, or is otherwise unavailable for a relatively long period of time.
- the second subscriber will only be notified once of each subscriber that attempted reaching her during the time that she was unavailable.
- the second subscriber will receive one notification for each person, and therefore only a small number of notifications and not dozens of notifications.
- Step 222 after a first failed attempt to call the second subscriber is detected and before a notification (e.g., using transient call) is made with respect to such call attempt, the first subscriber makes a second attempt to call the second subscriber.
- the second attempt is successful (e.g., the call is established, no unavailability condition occurs, or the like) .
- Step 236 no notification is provided of the failed call attempt.
- the notification module such as 120 of Fig. 1, may avoid issuing the notification as it may be considered to be no longer relevant in view of the successful call.
- FIG. 2E showing a flowchart of another method, in accordance with some embodiments of the disclosed subject matter.
- Step 212 the call attempted by the first subscriber fails due to detached condition of the second subscriber.
- the second subscriber may have turned her mobile telecommunication device off, may be located in a location in which there is no cellular signal reception, or the like.
- the HLR such as 160 of Fig. 1
- the HLR may be monitored to detect when the detached condition ends.
- the HLR may be updated.
- the HLR may be configured to actively notify a module, such as Notification Module 120 of Fig. 1, of the status change.
- a module may actively monitor communication to the HLR, such as by monitoring signaling switch, such as 140 of Fig. 1, to detect when the status of the second subscriber is being changed from detached to another status, such as attached.
- the disclosed subject matter may be notified of when the detached condition of the second subscriber ends, and before such time no repetitive attempts to establish the transient call are performed.
- the attempt to establish a transient call may still be unsuccessful, such as due to a busy condition or due to another detached condition.
- repetitive attempts to establish the transient call may be performed until successful.
- the HLR may be monitored once more to detect when the new detached ends.
- the HLR information is only available with respect to subscribers that are associated with a carrier.
- HLR monitoring as exemplified in Fig. 2E may be performed with respect to first and second subscribers that that share a common carrier.
- FIG. 2F showing a flowchart of another method, in accordance with some embodiments of the disclosed subject matter.
- Step 260 in response to a detection of a detached condition of the second subscriber (212) , a hidden SMS message may be transmitted to the second subscriber.
- the hidden SMS may never be shown on the device of the second subscriber and she may be oblivious to its transmission.
- the hidden SMS in case the hidden SMS cannot be transmitted (e.g., due to detached condition) , the hidden SMS is dropped and upon the second subscriber becoming available (e.g., HLR status being updated to attached) , a retransmission request may be issued with respect to the hidden SMS.
- Step 270 a retransmission request of the hidden SMS message is detected, and based on such detection, it may be deduced that the detached condition of the second subscriber has ended. Accordingly, transient call may be established (220) and the second subscriber may be notified of the attempt to reach her using the missed call notification (230) .
- hidden SMS messages may be used to detect when a detached condition ends.
- the use of hidden SMS messages for such detection may be useful in case the first and second subscriber do not share the same carrier or in view of a limitation to monitor the status of the second subscriber in the HLR (e.g., 160 of Fig. 1) .
- FIG. 2G showing a flowchart diagram of a method, in accordance with some embodiments of the disclosed subject matter.
- Step 200 a first subscriber initiates a call to a second subscriber, such as by dialing the phone number of the second subscriber using a cellular phone or other telecommunication device.
- Step 210 it is detected that the initiated call had failed due to insufficient balance condition of the first subscriber.
- the failure detection may be performed by a device, such as a Detection Module 110 of Fig. 1, which may be integrated into the telecommunication system as separate component or embedded in another component.
- Step 224 a transit call on behalf of the first subscriber is performed to the second subscriber.
- the transit call is performed immediately after receipt of insufficient balance condition therefore the telecommunication device of the second subscriber is able to receive the transient call just a few seconds after initial call attempt.
- the telecommunication device may indicate a missed call notification based on the transient call.
- the transit call may be initiated by a notification module, such as 120 of Fig. 1.
- the second subscriber is notified of the call by the missed call notification on the telecommunication device.
- the missed call notification may be based on the transit call and associated with the call attempt.
- the missed call notification may indicate, based on Caller ID of the transient call, the first subscriber as the subscriber that attempted to reach the second subscriber.
- FIG. 2H showing a flowchart diagram of a method, in accordance with some embodiments of the disclosed subject matter.
- Step 200 a first subscriber initiates a short-message (SMS) to a second subscriber, such as by typing the message in SMS application and sending it to the second subscriber number using a cellular phone or other telecommunication device.
- SMS short-message
- Step 210 it is detected that the initiated short-message (SMS) had failed due to insufficient balance condition of the first subscriber.
- SMS short-message
- the failure detection may be performed by a device, such as a Detection Module 110 of Fig. 1, which may be integrated into the telecommunication system as separate component or embedded in another component.
- Step 220 the first subscriber is asked by USSD message about the option to proceed the call notification.
- USSD message There are two options available: do send missed call notification to second subscriber or do not send missed call notification to second subscriber.
- Step 232 the system process sending missed call notification by Step 233 as similar as was explained before
- Step 233 a transit call on behalf of the first subscriber is performed to the second subscriber.
- the telecommunication device may indicate a missed call notification based on the transient call.
- the transit call may be initiated by a notification module, such as 120 of Fig. 1
- Step 234 in case subscriber does not want to send missed call notification, the system ends processing of this short message and do not send missed call notification
- Step 241 the second subscriber is not notified of the call by the missed call notification on the telecommunication device.
