Abstract

PURPOSE: To transfer a telephone number of an optional number of digits and a sub address through in-band by transfer a specific bit pattern denoting a transfer sequence discriminating a frame transferred at present from a frame going to be transferred next together with the transfer frame. CONSTITUTION: When a caller CU requests information of the number of channels required for high speed communication and transfer of a telephone number including sub addresses of the channels through in-band by using a connected channel, a called party AU transfers the telephone number of the channels on request sequentially together with a specific bit pattern denoting whether the transfer is finished in this frame or consecutive up to a succeeding transfer frame. Thus, the caller discriminates the frame transferred this time from a frame going to be transferred next. The called party discriminates it that the caller discriminates the frame transferred this time from the frame going to be transferred next by allowing the caller CU to send back the content received from the called party AU as it is to the called party AU in order to report it to the called party that the caller CU receives the telephone number or the like transferred from the called party AU.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention, when transmitting a high-speed data by bundling a plurality of lines, makes a request to send a telephone number to the called party on the calling side in in-band, and the called party responds to the request by the called party It relates to a method of transferring a telephone number to be transferred to.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when transmitting a high-speed data by bundling a plurality of lines, the calling side calls all telephone numbers of the called side necessary for communication, connects all lines and The pattern was sent to all lines, and the receiving side detected the special pattern received and made delay connection and synchronization establishment between each line.

As described above, in the calling method of each line on the receiving side, each manufacturer provides a device in which the special pattern transmitted for establishing the above-mentioned delay connection and synchronization is realized by its own method. , It was impossible to communicate between different devices of the manufacturing company.

Therefore, in order to enable communication between devices of any manufacturing company, at present ISO (Internationala)
l Organization for Standard
Rdization) is in progress to standardize a digital channel set (hereinafter, the specifications determined by this standardization work are referred to as DIS 13871). DIS13
871 is ISDN (Integrated Servie)
ces Digital Network) using a plurality of B channels (64 kbps), a video conference system, LAN (Local Area Network)
Router or gateway connecting PLAN and LAN, PBX
(Private Branch Exchange)
It is a specification that can be used in such as.

An outline of the operation of DIS 13871 is shown below.

The calling side calls one of the telephone numbers of the called side and connects one B channel. In-band using the connected B channel, information required for high-speed communication is exchanged using the information channel frame shown in FIG.

In the information exchange method, the transmission side transmits the communication mode in which communication is to be performed, the number of B channels that need to be bundled, and the like. On the other hand, on the receiving side, the communication mode in which the own device can communicate, the number of B channels that the own device can bundle,
Return their B channel phone numbers.

Next, the caller side determines the communication mode and the number of B channels that can be bundled, and sends back the determined parameters to the callee side.

The calling side sequentially calls the telephone number of the B channel of the called side received as described above, and connects the necessary number of B channels.

Each of the transmitting device on the calling side and the transmitting device on the receiving side is a FAW (Frame Alignment Wor).
d), a multi-frame including control codes such as frame number and channel number (for details, see DIS 13871)
Is transmitted from each B channel at the same time. Here, FAW is a synchronization character for normally receiving a multi-frame, a frame number is used to calculate a difference in arrival time of received data between lines, and a channel number is used when transmitting data by dividing it into a plurality of channels. It is used to match the order of division and the order of multiplexing, and depends on the channel.

Each B channel on the receiving side detects a FAW and establishes multiframe synchronization.

Next, based on the frame number, the B channel with the slowest data arrival is detected and the received data arrival time difference (ΔTi) with the other B channel (i) is calculated, and the received data of the line i is compared with the ΔTi time. However, it is delayed by a memory element or the like, and all B channel data appear to arrive at the same time (delayed junction).

In the above, after the delay joining, the transmitting side sequentially divides the input data into a plurality of lines, stops the transmission of the multiframe of each B channel that has been transmitted above, and transfers the divided input data instead. .

The receiving side makes full use of the above-mentioned delay junction, and when the data arrives at the B channel where the data arrives the slowest, the data is multiplexed and output in order including the data of other B channels.

As a result, even if the data input at high speed is divided into a plurality of B channels having different propagation delay times and transmitted, high speed communication is possible.

[0016]

However, in the above DIS 13871, the calling side calls any one B channel of the called side, and the calling side and called side are shown in FIG. 2 in the in-band of the connected B channel. B required for high-speed communication from now on using the information channel frame
Although the number of channels and their telephone numbers are transferred, there are the following problems.

That is, since the telephone number that can be transferred by the information channel frame is 7 digits or less, for example, when used in combination with a line having a different station number in Tokyo etc., an 8 digit telephone number is required and the telephone number cannot be transferred. Is.

The sub-address has a maximum of 40 digits in the international standard (ITU recommendation E.164), but its use is limited because it has only 6 bits.

Here, the telephone number transmitted in the information channel frame is the lowest numbered telephone number corresponding to the number of digits of the telephone number that the calling side called the called side at the beginning of the communication, and the upper digit is first set by the calling side. It is the same as the telephone number that called the called party.

For example, the telephone number at which the calling side first calls the called side is 03-5678-9012, and the telephone number of a certain channel transmitted in the information channel frame is 567.
In the case of 8-7890, it is the same as 03-5678-7890. (In this case, -is not sent.) That is, only the part different from the telephone number where the calling side first called the called side is sent.

The telephone numbers (characters) sent by the information channel frame feed are as follows.

[0022]

[Table 1]

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a method capable of transferring a telephone number and a sub-address having an arbitrary number of digits in-band.

[0024]

According to the present invention, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, when performing high-speed communication by bundling a plurality of low-speed lines, the calling side, as a procedure 1, is one of the receiving side telephones. Call the number and connect 1 line.

Next, as a procedure 2, in-band using the connected lines, the calling side requests the notification of the number of lines necessary for high-speed communication from now on and the transfer of the telephone numbers including the subaddresses of those lines. Then, when the called side sequentially sends out the telephone numbers of the requested lines, it also sends a specific bit pattern indicating whether it is completed in the frame to be transferred this time or is continued in the frame to be transferred next time. This makes it possible to identify the frame to be transferred this time and the frame to be transferred next. Here, the frame transferred this time and the next frame to be transferred can be distinguished from each other by sending back the received contents as they are to notify the called side that the calling side has received the telephone number transferred from the called side. is there. Further, the calling side can recognize whether the received telephone number is completed in the current frame or is continued in the next frame by the specific bit pattern.

[0026]

As described above, according to the present invention, when the receiving side transfers a telephone number of 8 digits or more by using the information channel frame standardized by DIS 13871 in response to the request of the transmitting side, a specific bit pattern is added. ,
It is possible to notify the originating side of the presence or absence of a frame that continues to the frame transferred this time, and it is possible to recognize whether the transfer frame is an odd number or an even number by the specific bit pattern.

[0027]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The present invention relates to the above-mentioned conventional telephone number transfer method,
That is, the calling party calls the representative telephone number of the called party, and B
Connect one channel. In-band using the connected B channel, information required for high-speed communication is exchanged using the information channel frame shown in FIG.

In the information exchange method, the transmission side transmits the communication mode in which communication is to be performed, the number of B channels that need to be bundled, and the like. On the other hand, the receiving side returns a communication mode in which the own device can communicate, the number of B channels that the own device can bundle, the telephone numbers of these B channels, and the like.

Next, the calling side determines the communication mode and the number of B channels that can be bundled, and when returning the determined parameters to the called side, the number of B channels that the called side device can bundle and the telephones of those B channels. 2 and 3 (hereinafter, b2, b) in the thick frame of octec 10 of the information channel frame configuration diagram shown in FIG.

Forwards 45678890123345678, channel 2
The case where the telephone number is transferred to 7654321 will be sequentially shown.

The calling side requests a telephone number of channel number 1 (the channel number of the B channel to which the calling side calls and connects any one telephone number of the called side in the above-mentioned conventional method is 0). (Refer to 1 in FIG. 1, refer to 11 in FIG. 3) The called party uses the upper 7 digits (1
234567) is transferred. At this time, since the telephone number is 8 digits or more and this frame is an odd number,
The newly added b2 and b3 transfer b2 = 0 and b3 = 1. (See 2 in FIG. 1 and 21 in FIG. 4) The calling side requests the continuous telephone number again based on the reception response of the telephone number and the detection of the continuation of the frame.

At this time, the contents of the frames of the transmission flags, b2, b3, and numbers are returned as they are to indicate the response. (See 3 in FIG. 1 and 12 in FIG. 3) The receiving side considers that a response (a new message has been received) has been sent because the received bit pattern has changed, and the top 8 telephone numbers of channel number 1 are considered. Transfer 7 digits (8901234) from the digit. At this time, since the remaining telephone numbers have eight digits or more and this frame is an even number, b2 = 1 and b3 = 0 are transferred. (See 4 in FIG. 1 and 22 in FIG. 4) The calling side requests the continuous telephone number again after receiving the telephone number and detecting the continuation of the frame. (See 5 in FIG. 1 and 13 in FIG. 3) The called party transfers the upper 15 digits to the last digit (5678) of the telephone number of the channel number 1. At this time, since the remaining telephone number is 4 digits, b2 = 1 and b3 = 1 are transferred, and the numbers b5 to b7 are EON (for details, see DIS 13
871). (See 6 in FIG. 1, 2 in FIG. 4)
