[7] 在如图 1 所示的实现方法一中， 参与会议的用户 A、 B 、 C  [7] In the implementation method 1 shown in Figure 1, the users A, B, and C participating in the conference
连接到同一个媒体网关上， 每个用户在媒体网关上分别对应的端点为 Ta、 Tb 、 Tc 。 为了实现用户 A、 B 、 C之间的会议， 需要将三个端点集中到关联 CTXa ， 由媒体网关混音实现会议功能。  Connected to the same media gateway, each user's corresponding endpoint on the media gateway is Ta, Tb, Tc. In order to implement the conference between users A, B, and C, three endpoints need to be centralized to the associated CTXa, and the media gateway mixes to implement the conference function.

连接到同一个媒体网关上， 用户在媒体网关上分别对应的端点为 Ta、 Tb 、 Tc ， 每个用户端点对应一个独立关联， 分别为 CTXa、 CTXb 、 CTXc 。 为了实现用户 A、 B 、 C  Connected to the same media gateway, the corresponding endpoints of the user on the media gateway are Ta, Tb, Tc, and each user endpoint corresponds to an independent association, namely CTXa, CTXb, CTXc. In order to implement users A, B, C
之间的会议功能， 需要分别在每个用户关联中增加端点 TA1 、 TBI 、 TCI ， 同时建立一个会议关联 CTXmpty ， 在该会议关联 CTXmpty  The conferencing function between the two needs to add endpoints TA1, TBI, TCI in each user association, and establish a conference association CTXmpty, and associate CTXmpty in the conference.

The conference function is implemented by the conference associated CTXmpty mix.
[9] 在现有的移动通信系统中支持会议功能， 会议（协议中规定参与会议的用户数 最多为 6方） 是按照图一和图二中的两种组网模型实现的。 [9] In the existing mobile communication system, the conference function is supported. The conference (the maximum number of users participating in the conference is 6 parties) is implemented according to the two networking models in Figure 1 and Figure 2.
[10] 目前， 将多个会议连接到一起的方法可以为： 将同一个媒体网关中的几个会议 中的用户合并到一起， 即将其它会议中的用户移动到同一个会议中。 [10] Currently, the method of connecting multiple conferences together can be: Combine users in several conferences in the same media gateway, and move users in other conferences to the same conference.
[11] 在实现本发明的过程中， 发明人发现上述现有技术中的用户合并方式至少存在 如下三个问题： [11] In the process of implementing the present invention, the inventors have found that at least the following three problems exist in the above-described prior art user combination method:
[12] 问题一、 对媒体网关有较高的要求， 要求媒体网关能够支持一个会议的会话中 超过 6个端点的协议限制。  [12] Problem 1. There is a high requirement for the media gateway, which requires the media gateway to support the protocol limit of more than 6 endpoints in a conference session.
[13] 问题二、 如果在用户合并的过程中需要操作的端点数量多， 则会导致操作效率 不高， 会议建立的过程较慢。 [13] Problem 2: If there are a large number of endpoints that need to be operated during the user consolidation process, the operation efficiency will be low and the conference establishment process will be slow.
[14] 问题三、 不能够实现分布在多个媒体网关上的会议之间的合并。 [14] Question 3: It is not possible to achieve a merger between conferences distributed across multiple media gateways.
