Definitions
- TECHNICAL FIELD Procedure to make a call in a communications network where a first subscriber or user intends to communicate with one or more subscribers or users in said system.
- Communications systems according to this procedure consist of the fixed network PSTN and the mobile network and the Internet and to this network connected telephone equipment which can consist of any type of telephone which allows that a call can be established towards a subscriber's dedicated communications computer.
- One aim of the invention is to overcome the disadvantages of the previous known technology and create a procedure where it is possible to from one subscriber call another subscriber and from this subscriber call further to another subscriber etc.
- Another aim with the invention is to create a procedure and general structure which allows that one can receive information via the voice from other subscribers and from sources (further subscribers) which they in their turn have selected to introduce on their interface which meets a calling subscriber. Further, the invention also solves the problem of orientating oneself in the network which allows that one under an initial number can derive unlimited information.
- the public communications network is improved in such a way that it is possible to receive information in voice form from a voice interface, via an ordinary telephone, and that it is possible to step by step call other subscribers to again receive voice information from its voice interface.
- the procdedure means that one only need to have the use of a telephone to execute the procedure. This means that the cost price for subscriber equipment may be low.
- the procedure implies that one uses the voice to oritentate oneself between different communication computers which contain information, and taht one will have a very simple procedure to access information.
- Figure 1 shows a solution in principle of the invention.
- Figure 2 shows a part of the invention according to Figure 1.
- Figure 1 is shown a public communications network 1 and equipment 2 and 5a-e which cooperates with said network.
- a subscriber who establishes a connection towards the network uses for instance ordinary telephone equipment such as fixed telephone, mobile telephone, or Internet telephone.
- the public communications network consists of the fixed network PSTN and the mobile network GSM/NMT and the Internet .
- the set up to said network is made by connecting said telephone equipment directly to the network or via a communications computer 5a-e (not shown in the Figure) .
- the network consists of conventional telecommunications equipment and a specific communications computer 3 which includes a calling device 4, which includes functions to from this make calls to other subscribers. This device is located to a node in the network .
- the communications computer includes, which is shown in Figure 2, a speech recognititon device 7, and a message device 8 and an announcing machine 9. These devices can be located to the computer or be cooperating with this .
- the communications computer 5a-e is located to a subscriber's, or at any user's, of the network. It is possible to reprogram from the user side, so that each user who has that type of computer has possibility to make changes in it in a known way.
- a subscriber or user who intends to call a user in the public communications network which consists of the fixed network PSTN, mobile GSM/NM -network or the Internet, makes use of his/her ordinary communications equipment in usual way by means of the keypad of the telephone, or according to a voice calling procdeure, to a certain subscriber.
- the system connects the calling party to an interface which is located to a communications computer somewhere in said communications network.
- the communications computer then delivers, via one in the communications computer located announcing machine, voice message via a voice menu about which alternatives that are available.
- the alternatives there are generally:
- the calling party When the calling party receives information from, for instance, the communications computer 5a via the home voice menu of the type "External voice link to weather" , the calling party knows that this subscriber has a programmmed link to another user's communications computer 5d, and then the calling party can, for instance, say "Please, give me information about the weather” , this will be recognised in the speech recognition device 7, at which the speech signal is transformed to digital signals and the call is routed via the call function 6a in the subscriber's computer 5a further to the second user's computer 5d, at which the calling party can orientate himself/herself on the home voice menu which this user has created for his/her activity.
- the calling party then can on this home voice menu find a voice link which for instance describes the weather of the locality where the calling party is, and at execution of the link is given, via the announcing machine in the communications computer 5d, voice message about this.
- the calling party then has, via own programming, connected himself/herself to the communications computer 5a which is dedicated to him/her and programmed this voice link.
- the calling party consequently only pronounces the name or the sentence for the voice link, and the network then connects him/her to right place.
- the network then will make use of the call function which is in the communications computer, or cooperates with the communications computer.
- the calling party wants to deliver a message to "Lars Svensson" via the home voice menu, he for instance says “please deliver a message” , and the message is recorded according to known technology in the message order .
