the method comprises the following steps: the calling terminal triggers an application server through a multi-party call service access code, the application server establishes a conference, and a dual-frequency Dial Tone (DTMF) does not enter conference mixing, namely the dual-frequency dial tone is filtered;
step two: after the calling terminal inputs the called telephone number, the application server creates a sub-conference and moves the calling terminal into the sub-conference, and DTMF in the sub-conference is added into conference sound mixing, namely DTMF is not filtered;
step three: calling a called party in the sub-conference by a calling party, and adding a first response medium of the called party into conference sound mixing;
step four: after the called party joins the conference, the application server moves the called party into the conference from the sub-conference, and at the moment, the calling party selects to continue to stay in the sub-conference to dial the next telephone number according to the requirement or switches to the conference for conference communication.
In the first step, the application server uses the media resource server to set the conference monitoring for the calling party.
In the second step, the application server uses the media resource server to set the conference control monitoring for the calling party.
In the third step, if the called terminal has a color ring or a prompt voice, the application server puts the media before the called terminal is off-hook into conference mixing sound, and the calling party can hear the prompt voice of the called terminal; if the called party does not have the ring back tone, the color ring or other prompting voices before the called party goes off the phone, the application server can play the ring back tone to the calling party by using the media server according to the actual situation, for example, if the called party does not have the ring back tone, the application server plays the ring back tone to the calling party through the media server. After the called party answers the call, the media resource server needs to renegotiate the media.
In the invention, if the called telephone number is the switchboard number, the calling party can directly dial the extension number by the key after hearing the prompt tone of the switchboard.
The method for realizing the multi-party call, the terminals finish the multi-party call service through the core network, the application server and the media resource server, comprising the following steps:
the method comprises the following steps: the conference creating party triggers an application server through a multi-party call service access code, the application server creates a conference and sets a dial tone not to enter conference mixing;
step two: a conference creating party selects to invite conference members, the application server creates a sub-conference, the conference creating party is moved into the sub-conference, and dial tone in the sub-conference is set to be mixed with the conference;
step three: a conference creating party calls the invited conference members in the sub-conference and sets a first response media of the invited conference members to enter conference mixing;
step four: the conference creator listens to the response media of the invited conference members.
And after the invited conference member joins the conference, the application server moves the invited conference member into the conference from the sub-conference.
The system for realizing the multi-party call comprises a conference establishing party, conference members and an application server; wherein,
the conference creator is used for sending a call request carrying an access code of the multi-party call service to call a core network, triggering an application server through the core network, calling conference members in a second conference and listening to response media of the conference members;
the application server is used for creating a first conference, adding a conference creating party into the first conference, creating a second conference, and moving the conference creating party from the first conference into the second conference, wherein in the first conference and the second conference, dial tone of the conference creating party is set to be mixed into the conference, and in the second conference, response media of conference members are set to be mixed into the conference.
The system also comprises a media resource server used for receiving the request of the application server, creating the first conference and the second conference and monitoring the conference creator.
Compared with the existing multi-party call conference system, the invention has the following advantages:
1. when the host invites the called party to participate in the conference through the conference control menu in the conference, the user experience can be improved;
2. the conference system can better solve the requirement of inviting the extension to participate in the conference, and because only one calling party and one called party exist in the sub-conference, the DTMF tone of the calling party can be uniquely transmitted to the called party after being mixed, thereby realizing the function of dialing the extension.
