Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing the embodiment of the invention is described in detail.
The invention provides the method for playing announcements in a kind of IVR calling, this method is applied to comprise in the IVR calling system of total portion mechanism and at least one branch, in total portion mechanism, be provided with ivr server, be provided with voice gateways in each branch, user under each branch is by the voice gateways of each branch, and the ivr server of process wide area network link-access general headquarters.Among the present invention, can hold consultation by voice gateways and ivr server, voice document is synchronized to the voice gateways of each branch from ivr server, play voice suggestion by voice gateways to the user, thereby reduce bandwidth occupancy to wide area network, reduce ivr server and carry out the prompt tone broadcasting time, improve the disposal ability of ivr server.
Owing to carry out interacting message based on SDP (Session Description Protocol, Session Description Protocol) agreement between voice gateways and the ivr server,, need expand to the SDP agreement therefore in order to realize above-mentioned functions; Promptly carrying out in the interactive messages, need in message, expand following description field based on the SDP agreement: carry the identification information of first description field of support voice gateway play cuing sound function whether, voice document to be played second description field, whether support the 3rd description field of file synchronization function.Concrete, can carry out following expansion to the medium property of SDP agreement:
a=fileTransSupp:<fileTransSuppEnable><fileName><send>
FileTransSuppEnable: whether be the description field of support voice gateway play cuing sound function, value can be on/off, in call establishment, carry out capability negotiation between voice gateways and the ivr server, when having only the both to support (on), could in follow-up flow process, adopt technical scheme provided by the invention.
Filename: be the description field of the identification information of voice document to be played, carry the file identification that needs broadcast; Be used for the prompt tone file name that the current needs of ivr server notice voice gateways are play.
Send: be the description field of whether supporting the file synchronization function, whether value on/off is used for voice gateways notice ivr server voice document this locality and exists, and does not have (on) as this locality, then need ivr server that voice document is sent to voice gateways, so that follow-up play is used.
As shown in Figure 2, this method of playing announcements may further comprise the steps:
Step 201, the user calls out ivr server by voice gateways, successfully sets up and calls out.
Among the present invention, in call establishment, also can determine whether the function of support voice gateway playing alert tones between voice gateways and the ivr server through consultation, when voice gateways or ivr server not during the function of support voice gateway playing alert tones, follow-up processing and existing procedure are similar, are example with the function of voice gateways and the equal support voice gateway of ivr server playing alert tones.
When voice gateways send INVITE foundation calling to ivr server, carried the information (being changed on) of indicating voice gateways support voice gateway play cuing sound function in this INVITE as fileTransSuppEnable with INVITE, afterwards, ivr server is given in 183 messages of voice gateways in response and is carried the information (being changed on as the fileTransSuppEnable with 183 messages) of indicating ivr server support voice gateway play cuing sound function.
Step 202, ivr server sends to voice gateways with the identification information (carrying this identification information as the filename field by INFO) of voice document to be played.
Step 203, voice gateways are determined the local voice document that whether has this identification information correspondence, if, execution in step 204, otherwise, execution in step 205.
Step 204, voice gateways are play voice suggestion according to the voice document of this locality storage to the user.
Step 205, voice gateways are responded (can respond by 200OK message) local message that whether has voice document to ivr server.When the judged result of step 203 when being, voice gateways are responded the local message that has voice document to ivr server; Otherwise voice gateways are responded the local message that does not have voice document to ivr server, and the send field that this moment, voice gateways also can 200OK message is set on (being that this locality does not exist), by ivr server voice document is sent to voice gateways.
Step 206, ivr server is play voice suggestion by the RTP passage between voice gateways and the ivr server to the user, and the voice document of identification information correspondence sent to voice gateways (as sending by FTP or TFTP mode), store this voice document by voice gateways.Wherein, when receiving after there are not the response of voice document in voice gateways, then carry out this step; Otherwise ivr server is not handled.
After this step, then will store the voice document of this identification information correspondence on the voice gateways, it is follow-up when the demand of playing this voice document is arranged again, then the judged result of step 203 is an execution in step 204, play voice suggestion according to the voice document of this locality storage to the user by voice gateways, make that every kind of voice document only need transmit once for voice gateways on wide-area network link, can transmit repeatedly voice document with existing one tunnel calling and compare, greatly reduce bandwidth occupancy wide area network; And compare in the broadcast of voice suggestion with the most of resource consumption of existing ivr server, ivr server can only be play a voice suggestion among the present invention, has improved the disposal ability of ivr server greatly, can support more IVR to call out simultaneously.
Step 207, voice gateways or ivr server are after the user plays voice suggestion, and corresponding button is dialed in the operation that the user self will carry out according to the voice suggestion selection.
Step 208, after the user selected corresponding operating according to voice suggestion, voice gateways obtained press key message sent by user, and gave ivr server with key information (as marking keys) transmission (as sending by the SIP INFO).
Step 209, after receiving key information, if currently play voice suggestion for voice gateways to the user, then ivr server notice voice gateways stop to play voice suggestion (can notify by INFO) to the user, are stopped to play voice suggestion to the user by voice gateways; If currently play voice suggestion for ivr server to the user, then ivr server self stops to play voice suggestion to the user.
Further, ivr server also needs to handle accordingly according to press key message sent by user, for example, during the corresponding another kind of voice suggestion of press key message sent by user, then continue execution in step 202 and follow-up flow process, during the corresponding artificial treatment of press key message sent by user, then change artificial treatment, by that analogy, until user's on-hook terminated call repeats no more among the present invention.
In the practical application, whether voice suggestion is play and can be controlled by ivr server to the user by voice gateways, ivr server can be transferred to voice gateways by the voice suggestion of selection of configuration part and play to the user, and the part voice suggestion is play to the user by ivr server self.For example, when surpassing preset first threshold value, ivr server can reduce self plays the quantity of voice suggestion to the user, carries out the flow process of above-mentioned Fig. 2, plays voice suggestion by voice gateways to the user as far as possible when ivr server performance index (as CPU etc.); When the ivr server performance index were lower than default second threshold value, ivr server can increase self and play the quantity of voice suggestion to the user, carries out existing handling process.
In order more clearly to set forth technical scheme provided by the invention, describe below in conjunction with protocol massages interaction flow shown in Figure 3, below only the present invention is carried out improved step and describes, for repeating no more with existing identical step, the interaction flow between these voice gateways and the ivr server comprises:
