Description

Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to a method and an electronic device for call waiting configuration.

In general, a communication waiting (service or function) is a function of allowing a user of a first terminal to receive a new call when a new call or a call is received from another third terminal during a call with a user of the second terminal Can be a service for informing the user that the service is available. If the user of the first terminal sets up a call waiting service, when a new call is received during a call, the user can pause or terminate the existing call and accept, reject or ignore the new call.

The call waiting may include a network based call waiting and a terminal based call waiting. The network-based call waiting stores information about whether the user activates or deactivates call waiting in a server associated with the network, and the server uses this information to accept, reject or ignore new calls (or calls) during a call . The terminal-based call waiting may be a method of storing information on whether the user activates or deactivating call waiting in the terminal, and allowing the terminal to accept, reject or ignore a new call during a call using the information.

If a call is received from the CS network while the terminal is communicating with the IM-CN, the server of the CS network may not have the same configuration information as the terminal having the terminal-based call waiting because the network-based call waiting is set, Call waiting may not be provided properly. For example, if the call waiting function is set to be active in the terminal and the call waiting enabled in the server of the CS network is set to be inactive, if a CS call is received from the second terminal during a call with the first terminal, The call waiting function may not be performed according to the set information.

For example, the electronic device 400 may store configuration information relating to call waiting, including information about use (or activation) or unused (e.g., disabled) (E.g., memory 130 of FIG. 1 or memory 230 of FIG. 2). The setting information related to the call waiting may include a setting value ('yes') indicating use for call waiting or a setting value ('no') indicating unused. The setting value indicating unused for call waiting may be set as a default value.

For example, the user interface may include at least one graphical object (e.g., text, image, icon or menu, etc.) for selecting whether to use or not use for call waiting. The electronic device 400 may set the use or nonuse of the call waiting based on the input by the user interface, and may store setting information (for example, setting information related to the call waiting).

According to one embodiment, the electronic device 400 is configured such that the electronic device 400 communicates with a second communication network (e.g., a CS network) 420 from a first communication network (e.g., IM- The setting relating to the waiting for communication stored in the memory of the electronic device 400 is transmitted to the server connected to the second communication network 420 by the communication circuit of the electronic device 400, Information can be transmitted. When the communication connection is changed from the first communication network 410 to the second communication network 420, the first communication network 410 is connected to the second communication network 420 by cell reselection, Or when a call is received via the second communication network 420 while communicating with the first communication network 410.

The electronic device 400 may change the connection from the PS network (e.g., IM-CN 410) to the CS network 420 upon receipt of a call from the CS domain.

For example, the electronic device 400 performs cell reselection or handover to a cell of the neighboring CS network 420 in the cell of the IM-CN 410 where it is located, It is possible to control and process the function for receiving the CS call service from the cell. The electronic device 400 may transmit configuration information for call waiting to a server (e.g., the HLR 440) associated with the CS network 420 when the cell reselection or handover is performed and the RAT is changed.

According to various embodiments, the electronic device 400 may send configuration information for call waiting to the server of the CS network 420 when the electronic device 400 is registered with the CS network 420 rather than with the IM- . According to yet another embodiment, the electronic device 400 does not send configuration information for call waiting to a server (e.g., HLR 440) associated with the CS network 420 based on the policy of the network, It may be stored only in the device 400. For example, each of the carrier networks may set a policy to set or not receive a policy to receive configuration information regarding call waiting. If the network is set to not receive call waiting information, the call waiting function is always activated, so that it is not necessary to perform separate synchronization with respect to the call waiting.

According to various embodiments, when the RAT is changed by the cell reselection in the state that the electronic device 400 is registered in the CS network 420, the configuration information about the stored call waiting is transmitted to the XCAP (XML configuration access protocol server 450. [ The XCAP server 450 may be a server for storing subscriber added service information including a call waiting state.

According to various embodiments, the electronic device 400 may re-transmit configuration information regarding the changed call waiting to a server (e.g., the HLR 440) associated with the CS network 420 when the configuration information for the call park is changed . The electronic device 400 may register the configuration information for the call waiting on a server (e.g., HLR (1)) associated with the CS network 420, 440), but may be stored in the electronic device 400 only.

According to various embodiments, the electronic device 400 may accept or reject a call received from a second electronic device based on configuration information for a call waiting when a call is received from the second electronic device during communication with the first electronic device . For example, if the electronic device 400 determines to accept the pending call based on configuration information regarding the stored call waiting, it sends a response signal (or message) indicating the call acceptance to the second electronic device, Information on the pending call may be displayed on the display (e.g., display 160 of FIG. 1 or FIG. 2 (260)) of electronic device 400 to signal that there is a call. The electronic device 400 may maintain a communication with the first electronic device upon request or disconnect the communication with the first electronic device and then perform a call connection with the second electronic device. The electronic device 400 may send a response signal indicating a call rejection to the second electronic device if it decides to reject the pending call.
