Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to providing quality of service assurance over non-wireless portions of a wireless voice over Internet Protocols (VOIP) system, and to locating and connecting to destination devices outside of a serving cell site.
- VOIP voice over Internet Protocols
- Wireless telephones such as but not limited to wireless telephones that communicate using Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) spread spectrum modulation techniques, communicate over the air with system infrastructure using wireless telephone over-the-air communication protocols, e.g., the CDMA protocols known as IS-95A, IS-95B, and IS-2000.
- the system infrastructure which can include base stations (BTS), base station controllers (BSC), and other components, connects the wireless telephone to another communication device, such as a through land line or another wireless communication system.
- BTS base stations
- BSC base station controllers
- another communication device such as a through land line or another wireless communication system.
- IP Internet Protocols
- VOIP voice over IP
- an auxiliary IP-based protocol known as Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is used.
- SIP Session Initiation Protocol
- a wireless device is associated with an IP address and a unique identifying alphanumeric packet address, such as "sip://MY_PHONE@qualcornm.com.”
- An SIP server functions as a directory of endpoints and their associated IP addresses and packet addresses. Accordingly, to participate in IP-based communication such as VOIP, a device must register its IP address with the SIP server.
- the SIP server either gives the destination IP address to the originating device, or it establishes a connection with the destination device and then acts as a proxy for the originating and destination devices.
- an SIP server that may be associated with the system knows both addresses and consequently establishes, perhaps using one or more options such as an "encryption” option, an IP connection between the two devices.
- the destination device is not in the same wireless service system as the originating device (an "intersystem” call)
- its address will not appear in the SIP server database, and the SIP server consequently forwards the call request to other SIP servers until the destination address is located or until the request times out.
- IP-based, intrasystem calls and intersystem calls in particular can result in transmitting packets over publicly-accessible portions of the Internet, resulting in unpredictable and potentially fluctuating delays.
- latency-intensive applications such as NOIP, this can severely compromise performance, since a calling party might experience undue delays in having his voice heard by a called party and vice- versa.
- Standard voice-over-IP telephony calls originated to destinations within the same service system are connected to the destination party using Internet Protocol (IP) routing techniques with the assistance of a SIP server, as noted above.
- IP Internet Protocol
- NOIP telephone calls originated to destinations outside of the originating service system to destinations on the PSTN require format conversion at the boundary of the originating packet system (the "intranet") and the PSTN.
- a "VOIP gateway” is a device well known in the art that converts between VOIP and PSTN formats. In order to perform this conversion, the VOIP gateway requires knowledge of the voice encoding and voice call signaling used within the originating IP system (intranet).
- NOIP systems employ standardized voice encoding techniques.
- Another case of NOIP calls of increasing interest are encrypted NOIP calls.
- Encrypted NOIP calls use voice encoding involving exchange of encryption establishment information between the two (or more) participating phones, and subsequent exchange of encrypted voice packets. These encrypted voice packets are not understood by NOIP gateways, and must be exchanged between the participating phones using a data network. In other words, an end-to-end data connection is required between the participating phones. Having made the above critical observations, the present invention provides the solutions disclosed herein.
- a voice over Internet (VOIP) system includes an IP-based infrastructure component commumcating with a wireless communication originating device.
- An SIP server communicates with the infrastructure component, and a modem bank is associated with the SIP server and is connected to the PSTN.
- the SIP server selectively uses the modem bank to instantiate a circuit-switched call from the originating device to a destination device.
- the SIP server instantiates circuit- switched calls only for intersystem calls requiring voice-call-latency characteristics and end-to-end data connectivity, as might be indicated by, e.g., an address or portion thereof of the destination device not being registered with the SIP server, and/or specific SIP call setup parameters.
- the SIP server does not instantiate a circuit-switched call for an intrasystem call, e.g., a call to a destination device currently served by the same intranet as the originating device.
- the destination device has an IP address of the form "sip://DN@service.com", and the circuit switched call is instantiated using the DN portion of the IP address.
- the SIP server maps the DN to the modem bank and completes the call through the PSTN. Additional information conveyed, potentially including optional SIP call parameters, can be used to identify a NOIP call as a secure call requiring instantiation of the circuit switched call.
- a method for NOIP includes receiving, from an originating wireless device in a first service system, a call request for a destination device that has an IP address. The method then determines whether the destination device is in the first service system. If the destination device is in the first service system, communication is established between the originating device and destination device within the first service system without using the public Internet. Otherwise, a circuit-switched call is established between the destination device and originating device using the PSTN, particularly if the call is encrypted, hi neither case are Internet connections which potentially are subject to unpredictable delays, such as the publicly accessible portions of the Internet, used to complete the VOIP call.
- a computer program device includes means for receiving a call request at an SE? server.
- the call request is generated by a wireless communication originating device, and it indicates a destination device.
- the program device also includes means for determining whether the destination device is registered with the SEP server. Means are provided for transmitting P packets between the destination device and originating device without using the public Internet when the destination device is registered with the SEP server. Also, however, means are provided for transmitting EP packets between the destination device and originating device using an instantiated circuit-switched connection when the destination device is not registered with the SEP server, and perhaps only when the call is encrypted.
- Figure 1 is a block diagram of a presently preferred inventive wireless communication system
- Figure 2 is a flow chart of the overall logic used in the system shown in Figure 1
- Figure 3 is a flow chart of the circuit switched call instantiation logic.
- a system for effecting communication between an originating wireless communication device 12 and a destination communication device using an EP-based telephony infrastructure 14.
- the infrastructure 14 generally is not part of the publicly-accessible Internet.
- the device 12 is a mobile telephone made by Kyocera, Samsung, or other manufacturer that uses Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) principles and CDMA over-the-air (OTA) communication air interface protocols such as defined in but not limited to IS-95A, IS-95B, TJCDMA, IS-2000, and others to communicate with the infrastructure 14.
- CDMA Code Division Multiple Access

- TIA/EIA Telecommunications Industry Association/Electronic Industries Association
- Combined AMPS and CDMA systems are described in TLAJEIA Standard IS-98.
- WCDMA wideband CDMA
- cdma2000 such as cdma2000 lx or 3x standards, for example
- TD-SCDMA TD-SCDMA
- wireless communication devices to which the present invention applies may include but are not limited to a wireless handset or telephone, a cellular phone, a data transceiver, or a paging and position determination receiver, and can be hand-held, or portable as in vehicle-mounted (including cars, trucks, boats, planes, trains), as desired.
- wireless communication devices are generally viewed as being mobile, it is to be understood that the present invention can be applied to "fixed" units in some implementations.
- the present invention applies to data modules or modems used to transfer voice and/or data information including digitized video information, and may communicate with other devices using wired or wireless links.
- Wireless communication devices are also sometimes referred to as user terminals, mobile stations, mobile units, subscriber units, mobile radios or radiotelephones, wireless units, or simply as “users” and “mobiles” in some communication systems.
- the wireless telephone 12 communicates, using one or more of the above-mentioned systems, with at least one first infrastructure component 16 that accesses an SEP server 18 that executes the logic of the present invention.
- the first component 16 preferably is a base station (BTS), but it can also be implemented by base station controller (BSC), mobile switching center (MSC), gateway to a satellite system, or other infrastructure component or combination of two or more of the above, i any case, the first component 16 not only supports the necessary protocols and systems to communicate with the wireless device 12, but also supports EP and attendant protocols or stack of EP protocols.
- the SEP server 18 communicates with publicly-accessible portions of the Internet 20.
- a modem bank 22 is associated with the SEP server 18.
- the modem bank 22 can embody a VOEP gateway to the public switched telephone network (PSTN) 24 using a signaling protocol such as ISUP and using a physical system such as SS7.
- PSTN public switched telephone network
- the logic may be embodied by a computer program that is executed by a processor within, e.g., the SEP server 18 as a series of computer- or control element-executable instructions.
- These instructions may reside, for example, in RAM or on a hard drive or optical drive, or the instructions may be stored on magnetic tape, electronic read-only memory, or other appropriate data storage device that can be dynamically changed or updated.
- step 26 the call is received by the SEP server 18.
- decision diamond 28 it is determined whether the call is an intersystem call or an intrasystem call. One way to make this determination is to determine whether the EP address of the destination device is registered with the SEP server 18. If it is registered with the SEP server 18, an intrasystem call is indicated, and the logic flows to step 30 to deliver VOEP packets directly to the destination device through the infrastructure 14 without using the public Internet 20.
- the preferred non- limiting logic flows from decision diamond 28 to decision diamond 31 to determine whether the call is an encrypted VOEP call. If it is, the logic moves to step 32, wherein a circuit-switched call to the destination device is instantiated through the modem bank 22 and PSTN 24 using the logic shown in Figure 3.
- step 32 wherein a circuit-switched call to the destination device is instantiated through the modem bank 22 and PSTN 24 using the logic shown in Figure 3.
- instantiation of the circuit-switched call might be made in response to one or more predetermined SEP options, such as "encrypted", i.e., the circuit-switched call might be instantiated only for encrypted VOEP calls and not for unencrypted VOEP calls, if desired, although all intersystem calls can be so treated.
- the logic delivers the call through a conventional VOEP gateway or via the public Internet 20.
- the DN of the destination device is mapped to the modem bank 22. For instance, for a device having an SEP address of "sip://DN@qualcomm.com", the DN portion of the address is mapped to the modem bank 22. Then, at block 36 the call is completed through the PSTN 24 using the modem bank 22. As mentioned above, this can be undertaken based on additional SEP information in the call, such as "encrypted" call, indicating that the call is encrypted.
