Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify exchange processing by changing automatically the transfer destination of a call according to the time band and days of the week. CONSTITUTION:Plural pieces of data are allocated to a single subscriber, and the storing positions LE1-A, LE2-A and LE1-B for different subscribers are set to each incoming subscriber data. The central processor of an exchange decides and selects one of the incoming subscriber data according to the time band and days of the week. Thus, the subscriber set to the incoming subscriber data can receive the corresponding incoming call.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an incoming call control method in an electronic exchange, and in particular to an exchange process that changes the incoming destination depending on the time of day, day of the week, etc. when a telephone number is dialed. It is related to the method.

Conventional call transfer services have been used as exchange processing methods to change the destination of a call depending on the time of day, day of the week, etc., but the call transfer service uses the calling subscriber data and receiving subscriber data to perform various services of the exchange. From the perspective of subscribers receiving call transfer services, this is inconvenient, and improvements have been desired.

[Conventional technology]

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of an incoming call control method for a conventional call transfer service.

In the figure, 1 is an exchange machine, and 2a, 2b, and 2C are subscribers, respectively. The same symbols represent the same objects throughout all the figures below.

Subscribers 2a, 2b, 20, etc. are subscribers connected to the exchange 1, respectively. In this case, the call transfer service means that, for example, if calling subscriber 2C makes a call during the day and dials subscriber 2a, it will naturally be connected to subscriber 2a, but if it makes a call at night and dials subscriber 2a, In this case, it refers to a service that is connected to a subscriber 2b registered in advance. In this way, the connection destination is not only changed depending on the night and day, but also depending on the day of the week.

Therefore, a subscriber who wishes to receive this service dials the desired forwarding destination telephone number using a telephone in advance, and from then on, incoming calls to the subscriber are forwarded to the registered telephone number.

In conventional electronic exchanges, data regarding accommodated subscribers is prepared in order to be able to provide various services for each accommodated subscriber.

This data regarding accommodated subscribers consists of originating subscriber data and terminating subscriber data. The originating subscriber data includes service attributes for the subscriber and is indexed by the accommodating location of the subscriber, and the terminating subscriber data contains the storage location of the calling subscriber data, and when a call is received to a subscriber, the called subscriber data is indexed by the received telephone number, and the calling subscriber data is read out from the contents of the called subscriber data, and the calling subscriber data is read out from the contents of the called subscriber data. A method is adopted in which processing for incoming calls is determined based on the contents of subscriber data.

In this way, when the electronic exchange receives a dial from a subscriber, it checks what type of subscriber the originating subscriber is from the above-mentioned data, and then begins operation. Therefore, the incoming call control method for the conventional call transfer service was also developed as part of this process.

Fig. 3 is a diagram for explaining an example of a conventional incoming call control method, in which Fig. 3(a) shows the originating subscriber data, Fig. 3(b)
2A and 2B are diagrams each illustrating incoming subscriber data.

When the originating subscriber 2c now dials the subscriber 2a, the exchange 1 performs the following operations using the built-in terminating subscriber data and originating subscriber data.

First, the exchange 1 reads the accommodating position LE-A information of the subscriber 2a stored in the incoming subscriber data stored in the exchange 1.

Subscriber 2 then stored in the originating subscriber data
■ Read the originating subscriber data of a.

In the originating subscriber data for subscriber 2a, the class of service for this subscriber is entered. If there is a request for transfer to subscriber 2b (telephone number Ds) here at night, the exchange 1 reads the accommodation location LE-B information of subscriber 2b (2).

Next, exchange l examines the calling subscriber data for subscriber 2b, and then sends a paging signal to subscriber 2b.

In this way, a method is adopted in which calls are transferred to a subscriber whose phone number is registered in advance. Therefore, for example, if you want to receive calls at your office during the day and at home at night, you have to cancel your forwarding destination twice a day, and the exchange process is also complicated as explained above.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

The purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the drawbacks of the above-mentioned conventional method, and to
To provide a call termination system that does not require a subscriber to cancel the call transfer because the destination of the call can be automatically changed depending on the day of the week.

[Means for solving problems]

A means for solving the problem is that in order to determine service attributes, etc. for the accommodated subscriber, data regarding the accommodated subscriber is composed of calling subscriber data and called subscriber data, and when a call is received by the subscriber. In this case, in an exchange processing method that determines the processing for the incoming call based on the data regarding the accommodated subscriber, one subscriber is provided with a plurality of incoming subscriber data, and each incoming subscriber data is assigned to a different subscriber. By setting the accommodation location of the subscriber, and providing a means for identifying whether to use the information of the plurality of called subscriber data assigned to the subscriber when a call is received to the subscriber, the destination of the call can be determined. This is achieved by controlling the

[Effect]

According to the present invention, paying attention to the fact that subscriber data consists of originating subscriber data including service attributes and incoming subscriber data indexed by received numbers, a plurality of incoming data are assigned to - subscribers, and each The accommodating locations of different subscribers are set in the incoming subscriber data, and the exchange automatically selects one out of a plurality of incoming subscriber data depending on the time of day, day of the week, etc., and sets it in the incoming subscriber data. This has the effect of making it possible for subscribers to receive calls.

〔Example〕

In Figure 2, subscriber 2C makes a call at night and calls subscriber 2a.
, or 2b, the call is received by subscriber 2a, and subscriber 2C makes the call during the day and calls subscriber 2a.
The present invention will be explained by taking as an example a case in which when the telephone number of subscriber 2b is dialed, the call is received by subscriber 2b.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an embodiment of the incoming call control method according to the present invention, in which FIG. 1(a) shows the originating subscriber data structure, and FIG. 1 (bl shows the contents of the incoming subscriber data), respectively.

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

In this embodiment, a case where the destination of a call is changed at night and during the day will be described. That is, nighttime subscriber 2C is subscriber 2a or subscriber 2.
Calls will arrive at subscriber 2a no matter which telephone number dialed in b, and calls will arrive at subscriber 2b regardless of whether daytime subscriber 2c dials either the telephone number of subscriber 2a or subscriber 2b. shall be.

As shown in FIG. 1(b), a plurality of pieces of incoming data are assigned to one subscriber. That is, for the subscriber 2a, the accommodating position L
Allocate EI-A, LE2-A, and LEI-B.

For example, the housing position LE1-A is the original housing position of the subscriber 2a, the housing position LE2-A is the housing position of the subscriber who receives calls at night, and the housing position LEI-B is the housing position of the subscriber who receives calls during the day. be.

Similarly, for subscriber 2b, accommodation positions LEI-B, LEI
- Allocate three ASLE2-B. For example, the housing position El-B is the original housing position of subscriber 2b, the housing position LEI-A is the housing position of the subscriber who receives calls at night, and the housing position LE2-B is the housing position of the subscriber who receives calls during the day. It is.

The method of indexing subscriber data when the telephone number of subscriber 2a or subscriber 2b is dialed is the same as that described in the prior art section, except that The central processing unit of the exchange automatically determines which of the incoming subscriber data is to be used based on the time of day and other conditions.

In the present invention, registration is performed by the subscriber in the same way as in the conventional system, but it is necessary to register for which of the three incoming subscriber data (accommodation position LE2 for subscriber 2a).
-A or LEI-B) It is necessary to send an indicator indicating the transfer destination phone number.

In addition, in the conventional system, the forwarding destination telephone number is stored in the calling subscriber data, but in the present invention, when the forwarding destination telephone number and the above-mentioned index are received, the subscriber's accommodation location (subscription Naturally, it is necessary to obtain the accommodation position L E 1-A) for the subscriber 2a and store it in the portion indicated by the index among the plurality of terminating subscriber data of the originating subscriber.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained in detail above, according to the present invention, it is possible to automatically change the forwarding destination of a call depending on the time of day and day of the week, so there is no need to cancel the call, and the switching process is simplified. There is.
