BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a call regulation system and method in an electronic exchange, and more particularly to a call regulation upper limit designation transmission regulation system and method.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, this kind of outgoing call restriction has been achieved by restricting external calls to outside the business group, which is realized by pre-registering, and restricting outgoing calls according to the call type (call outside the designated area, international call). , And there are restrictions on transmission from electronic exchanges due to rising traffic.

[0003]

In the above-mentioned conventional method, except for the restriction of transmission from the electronic exchange due to the increase in traffic, (1) the subscriber data of the electronic exchange is changed from the subscriber whose transmission is restricted. You cannot make a call unless you do. (2) It is not possible to flexibly set conditions for restricting outgoing calls. There was a problem.

An object of the present invention is to provide a call charge upper limit designation transmission regulation system and method in an electronic exchange, which solves the above-mentioned problems, particularly in the call charge upper limit designation transmission regulation.

[0005]

A call charge upper limit designation transmission restriction system in an electronic exchange according to the present invention is a calculation means for calculating the total call charge of the subscriber when a call is made by the subscriber, and the subscriber's advance call. By comparing the call charge set to the upper limit with the above-mentioned call charge, the detection means for detecting the call control who controls the call when the call charge is exceeded, and the call charge during the call from the subscriber who is not call-controlled The adding means for adding and the total call charge for each busy call of the subscriber and the upper limit set call charge are compared, and when the call charge for each busy call is exceeded, a calling restriction notification is given to the calling subscriber. The notification means for performing the call, the restriction means for restricting the outgoing call to the subscriber, and the outgoing call restriction from the outgoing call restrictor is dialed by the outgoing call restrictor by a preset access code. And release means for dividing, if not carried out the release, and having a announcement means for announcement of call charges exceeded.

Further, according to the present invention, when the subscriber turns the access code, the canceling means cancels the call restriction for only one call and adds the call charge so that the call restriction subscriber can access the access code. If the code is not turned, an announcement for notifying the subscriber that the call charge has been exceeded is connected to the subscriber to restrict outgoing calls from the subscriber.

According to the call charge upper limit designation transmission control method in the electronic exchange of the present invention, the telephone exchange accesses the storage device by the call from the subscriber for which the upper limit of the call charge settlement unit is set, and the call charge of the subscriber. The total and the call charge upper limit setting value are detected, the call charge total of the subscriber is compared with the call charge upper limit setting value, and if the total call charge exceeds the call charge upper limit setting value, the subscriber makes a call. When the call originator is regulated and the total call charge does not exceed the call charge upper limit setting value, it is determined that the subscriber is a normal caller, and the call charge for each call to the normal caller. When the total call charge exceeds the call charge upper limit set value by adding, the caller is notified of the call charge excess, the call is restricted, and the call is regulated by the call originator. It Then, when a preset access code is turned, an announcement is made to release the call regulation of the call regulator by only one call and inform the call regulator who does not turn the access code that the call charge has been exceeded. It is characterized by making a call and controlling outgoing calls.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram of a call charge upper limit designation transmission restriction system in an electronic exchange of the present invention. This call regulation system compares the total calling charge of the subscriber with the calling charge calculated by the calling of the subscriber, and compares the calling charge set to the upper limit of the subscriber with the total calling charge. Detecting means 12 for detecting a call restriction person who restricts call origination, adding means 13 for adding a call charge during a call from a subscriber who is not restricted in call origination, total call charge for each subscriber's busy call and upper limit set call. The notification means 14 that compares the charges and notifies the subscriber who is in the call of the outgoing call restriction when the total call charge for each busy call is exceeded, the restricting means 15 that restricts the outgoing call to this subscriber, and the outgoing call restrictor A canceling means 16 for canceling the call restriction by dialing the call restrictor by an access code preset for an outgoing call, and an announcement for announcing the excess of call charges if the call restriction is not canceled. And a stage 17.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a specific device for realizing the call charge upper limit designation transmission control system of FIG. 1, in which a line control processor is provided between the electronic exchange 1 and the subscriber 4. The electronic exchange 1 includes a storage device 2.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the operation, and the operation will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

The calculation means 11 receives the call from the subscriber 4 for whom the upper limit of the call charge settlement unit is set (step S
1) The storage device 2 is accessed (step S2), and the detection means 12 detects the total call charge of the subscriber 4 and the upper limit set value of the call charge (step S3), and the total call charge of the subscriber 4 and the call. Compare the upper limit set value of the charge (step S
4) When the subscriber 4 does not exceed the upper limit set value of the call charge, the adder 13 adds the call charge as a normal caller (step S5), and the detector 4 determines the upper limit of the call charge by the detector. If the set value is exceeded, the call is restricted as a restricted caller (step S9). As the normal caller adds the call charges by the notifying means 14, the total call charge is compared with the call charge upper limit setting value (step S6), and the total call charge of the normal caller is set to the upper limit of the call charge. When the value exceeds the limit, the normal caller is notified with a special tone that the call charge has been exceeded (step S
7) The transmission is regulated by the regulation means 15 (step S
8). The canceling means 16 turns a preset access code in response to the call from the call restriction person (step S10), releases the call restriction person only for one call, and adds the call charge (step S12). When the call control unit does not turn the access code by the announcement means 17, an announcement for notifying the excess of the call charge is connected (step S11) to restrict the call (step S).
