Softswitch is the nucleus equipment of circuit-switched network to packet switching network evolution, also is one of visual plant of Next Generation Telecommunication Networks network.Softswitch is the set of multiple logical functional entity, and it provides calling control, connection and the partial service function of integrated service, is the nucleus equipment that Next Generation Telecommunication Networks network voice/data/video service call, control, business provide.Softswitch is independent of the bottom bearing protocol, mainly finish major functions such as calling out control, media gateway access control, resource allocation, protocol processes, route, authentication, charging, and business and diversified third party's business that can provide the available circuit switch to provide to the user.
In Softswitch, can finish H.323 two two intercommunicatings between terminal, MGCP terminal, sip terminal and narrowband terminal, and can finish the H.323 registration and the management of terminal, MGCP terminal, sip terminal and narrowband terminal.The present invention describes all kinds of protocol terminals realization of Communication method in same audio/video conference on this basis.
The present invention mainly is the problem that the various protocols terminal is participated in audio/video conference simultaneously that solves on the basis of Softswitch, by adopting media control unit (MCU) to cooperate Softswitch to finish the communication of various bandwidth protocol terminals in audio/video conference, adopt the purpose of MCU to be to gather the media information that each terminal is sent, therefore in the present invention, MCU is equivalent to the media information switch.
Fig. 1 is a system configuration schematic diagram of realizing the various protocols terminals joining the conference according to NGN network of the present invention, as shown in Figure 1, all kinds of protocol terminals, for example MGCP terminal 104, H.323 all registrations on Softswitch 103 such as terminal 105, sip terminal 106, log-on message comprise the signaling address of termination number, terminal receipt of call, with the corresponding terminal type of this termination number etc.MCU 102 also is registered on the Softswitch 103.For MCU 102, Softswitch 103 is equivalent to gatekeeper (GK, Gate Keeper), finish GK address resolution, call out function such as control, the direct and Softswitch 103 of MCU 102 carries out RAS message, Q.931 message and the H.245 transmission of message.When H.323 MCU 102 called out terminal 105, Softswitch 103 was equivalent to GK, finish GK address resolution, call out function such as control.When MCU 102 called out MGCP terminals 104 or sip terminal 106, Softswitch 103 was equivalent to gateway (GW, Gate Way) and GK, finish the protocol conversion of GW and GK address resolution, call out function such as control.
Conference management center (SMC) 101 is as the back-stage management equipment of MCU 102, on the one hand, SMC 101 carries out the exchange of private message with MCU 102, and private message is carried on the transmission control protocol (TCP), is used to control the action of MCU 102 and issues conference commands to MCU 102; On the other hand, SMC 101 carries out the exchange of private message with Softswitch 103, and Softswitch 103 issues conferencing information by SMC 101 to MCU 102.Conferencing information generally comprises: the quantity of the terminal of attending a meeting, and the number of each terminal, password, spendable bandwidth in the meeting, is audio conferencing or video conference or audio/video conference at conference type, whether supports data conferencing, whether supports many picture functions etc.MCU 102 operates accordingly according to the conferencing information of receiving, and calls out the terminals joining the conference of respectively attending a meeting.
Fig. 2 as shown in Figure 2, at first introduces the following part of dotted line for carry out the schematic diagram of same audio/video conference according to various protocols terminal of the present invention, the initial conferencing information of configuration in SMC 101, and SMC101 is handed down to MCU 102 with meeting information.MCU 102 calls out all kinds of protocol terminals of participating in video conference.MCU 102 sends call information to Softswitch 103, carries the number of terminal called in the call information; After Softswitch 103 is received call information, log-on message according to all kinds of protocol terminals finds and the corresponding terminal type of this termination number, the i.e. protocol type supported of this terminal, the call information that MCU 102 is sent is converted to the call information with the corresponding protocol type of terminal type then, and the call information with this protocol type sends to corresponding terminal again.Because the message of transmitting between MCU and Softswitch is followed H.323 agreement, so when if H.323 MCU calls out the terminal-joined audio/video conference, Softswitch only needs forwards that MCU is sent to get final product to terminal H.323, needn't the transforming message type.When if MCU 102 calls out other protocol type terminals beyond the terminal H.323, for example, when MCU 102 calling SIP terminals 106 are participated in audio/video conference, MCU 102 sends to Softswitch 103 with call information, Softswitch 103 is according to the termination number that carries in the call information of receiving, find with the corresponding terminal type of this termination number be sip terminal, the call information that MCU 102 is sent transfers the call information of Session Initiation Protocol type to, and the call information with the Session Initiation Protocol type is sent to sip terminal 106 then.
After setting up the media information passage of media information, access success, MCU 102 reports conferencing information to SMC 101, is handled by 102 pairs of media informations of MCU, sends to corresponding terminal as required, carries out the communication of each terminal room in the audio/video conference.
When finishing audio/video conference, SMC 101 sends the closing session order to MCU 102, and the calling that MCU 102 discharges each terminal finishes current audio/video conference.MCU 102 sends the call release order to Softswitch 103, Softswitch 103 is call release order with the corresponding protocol type of terminal type with the call release command conversion then, call release order with this protocol type sends to corresponding terminal again, last corresponding terminal call release finishes current audio/video conference.
As another kind of technical scheme of the present invention, in conjunction with the part more than the dotted line, one time audio/video conference can be initiated by terminal, and the terminal that can initiate audio/video conference is called meeting control terminal 201.Meeting control terminal 201 sends conferencing information to Softswitch 103, Softswitch 103 sends the conferencing information of receiving to SMC101 then, SMC 101 issues the conferencing information of receiving to MCU 102, and MCU102 receives that the processing procedure of processing procedure behind the conferencing information and above-mentioned non-optional part is basic identical.When meeting control terminal 201 control MCU 102, whether MCU 102 is authorized to by password authentification meeting control terminal 201, if the password that meeting control terminal 201 provides is consistent with the password of SMC 101 in the conferencing information that MCU102 issues, then allow 201 couples of MCU 102 of meeting control terminal to control; Otherwise, the control of 201 couples of MCU 102 of refusal meeting control terminal.
