Call processing apparatuses that can be used include a calling party exchange 100, a calling party visitor location register (VLR) 200, a calling home location register (HLR) 300, a called party exchange 400 ), And the destination home position register 500.

The calling side exchange 100 is a switch that manages a specific location or region for home-zone service registered by the calling subscriber. When the calling subscriber originates from a specific location for the home-zone service, the calling-side exchange 100 provides the home-john service to the calling subscriber. At the same time, if the calling subscriber is a mobile subscriber, the caller connects the call with the called subscriber through the called exchange 400, while the calling subscriber is a subscriber linked with a general wired subscriber or another service provider. Public Subscriber Telecommunication Network (hereinafter referred to as PSTN).

In addition, the originating visitor location register 200 is connected to the originating exchange 100, and stores and manages information of the originating subscriber. At this time, the information on whether the calling subscriber is a home-zone service subscriber or a general subscriber is included in the origination indicator in the originating subscriber information stored in the calling visitor location register 200. John exists in identifier form.

The originating home location register 300 stores and manages specific location information for the home-zone service and subscriber routing information registered by the calling subscriber.

Meanwhile, when the called subscriber is a mobile subscriber, the called exchange 400 manages a region in which the called subscriber is located and has the same function as the calling exchange 100.

In addition, the called party home location register 500 has the same function as the calling party home location register 300 and stores routing information for the called subscriber and requests routing information from the calling exchange 100. When received, it serves to perform the processing operation.

Then, with respect to the call processing method capable of the home-zone additional service in the mobile communication system according to an embodiment of the present invention using the call processing apparatus capable of the home-zone additional service in the mobile communication system having the above configuration. Let's explain.

First, the calling subscriber inputs the number of the called subscriber through the mobile terminal 1 (S1).

Then, the source exchange 100 receives the location information of the calling subscriber and the number of the called subscriber transmitted from the mobile terminal 1 through the base station and the control station (S2).

Then, the calling side exchange 100 reads and analyzes the calling subscriber information stored in the calling side visitor location register 200 (S3).

Subsequently, the calling exchange 100 determines whether the calling subscriber is a home-zone service subscriber (S4). In this case, the information on whether the calling subscriber is a home-zone service subscriber or a general subscriber is selected from the information in the Origination Indicatior among the information of the calling subscriber stored in the calling visitor location register 200. John exists in identifier form. Accordingly, the originating exchange 100 analyzes the home-zone identifier present in the origination indicator of the originating subscriber's information, thereby determining whether the originating subscriber subscribes to the home-zone service.

At this time, if the calling subscriber is the home-zone service subscriber (YES) in the fourth step (S4), the calling party switch 100 is the home-zone specifying position of the calling subscriber stored in the calling home location register 300. Information is read (S5).

Then, the calling side exchange 100 determines whether the specific location for the home-zone service registered in advance by the calling subscriber and the current location of the calling subscriber are the same (S6).

In the sixth step S6, if the specific location for the home-zone service registered in advance by the calling subscriber and the current location of the calling subscriber are the same (YES), the calling side exchange 100 receives the announcement or tone for the home-zone service. By transmitting the code to the mobile terminal 1 of the calling subscriber, the home subscriber generates a announcement or a tone code for the home-zone service (S7). At this time, the announcement for the home-zone service output through the mobile terminal 1 is, for example, "the billing benefit is applied in this region."

On the other hand, in the fourth step (S4) the calling party is not a home-zone service subscriber (NO), or in the sixth step (S6) the calling party has a specific location for the home-zone service and the current location of the calling subscriber. If the location is not the same (NO) or after the seventh step S7, the calling side exchange 100 performs a call setup operation with the calling party and the called party to proceed with each other's call (S8).

Then, the calling side exchange 100 applies the charging benefit due to the home-zone service to the charging information (S9).

Hereinafter, a detailed operation process of the eighth step S8 will be described in detail.

First, the originating exchange 100 determines whether the calling subscriber is a call restricted subscriber through the analysis of the information of the calling subscriber performed in the third step S3 (S8-1).

At this time, if the calling subscriber is not a call-restricted subscriber (NO) in step 8-1 (S8-1), the calling side exchange 100 determines whether the called party's incoming call number is a mobile network subscriber number. (S8-2).

If the called party inputted by the calling subscriber in step 8-2 (S8-2) is a mobile network subscriber number (YES), the calling party switch 100 transmits to the called party home location register 500 with respect to the called party. Request routing information (S8-3).

Then, the called party home location register 500 transmits routing information about the called party to the calling party switch 100 (S8-4).

On the other hand, after the calling party exchange 100 analyzes the routing information for the called party, it determines whether the called party switch 400 to which the called party belongs (S8-5).

At this time, if there is a destination side exchange 400 to which the called party belongs in step 8-5 (S8-5) (YES), the calling side exchange 100 calls the called side exchange 400. After setting and proceeding with the call between the calling party and the called party, the process proceeds to the ninth step S9 (S8-6).

On the other hand, if the originating subscriber is a call-restricted subscriber (YES) in step 8-1 (S8-1), the originating exchange 100 performs the error handling operation that is called and ends the call processing operation ( S8-7).

In addition, if the called party inputted by the calling subscriber in step 8-2 (S8-2) is not a mobile network subscriber number but a subscriber linked to a general wired subscriber or another service provider (NO), the calling exchange 100 ) Establishes a call to the PSTN network, proceeds with the call between the calling party and the called party, and proceeds to the ninth step S9 (S8-8).

On the other hand, if the called party switch 400 to which the called party belongs in step 8-5 (S8-5) does not exist (NO), the calling party switch 100 performs a routing number error processing operation, The call processing operation ends (S8-9).

As described above, according to a call processing method capable of a home-zone supplementary service in a mobile communication system according to the present invention, when a home-zone supplementary service is provided to a user, the home-zone supplementary service is directly used at the originating exchange without using additional equipment. Not only can the home-zone supplementary service be easily implemented by allowing the John supplementary service operation to be performed, but also it can provide a higher quality mobile communication service to the customer, thereby improving customer satisfaction.
