一种基于 CSTA的 IVR业务处理方法、 装置及系统  CSTA-based IVR service processing method, device and system
本申请要求于 2008年 12月 18日提交中国专利局、 申请号为 200810240194. 7、 发 明名称为"一种基于 CSTA的 IVR业务处理方法、装置及系统"的中国专利申请的优先权, 其全部内容通过弓 I用结合在本申请中。  This application claims the priority of the Chinese Patent Application entitled "CSTA-based IVR Service Processing Method, Apparatus and System", filed on December 18, 2008, with the application number of 200810240194. The content is incorporated by reference in this application.
技术领域 Technical field
本发明涉及通信技术领域, 尤其涉及一种基于计算机支持的电信应用 (CSTA, Computer Supported Telecommunications Applications)的交互式语音应答 (IVR, Interactive Voice Response)业务处理方法、 装置及系统。  The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to an interactive voice response (IVR) service processing method, apparatus, and system based on Computer Supported Telecommunications Applications (CSTA).
发明背景 Background of the invention
在 CSTA协议的支持下, 当交换设备作为排队机, 应用于 IVR业务中时, 经常会有 放音、 收号等业务需求, 其中放音可能包括普通的指定文件名放音, 也可能包括文本至 语音的转换(TTS, Text To Speech)放音; 收号可能包括普通的双音多频(DTMF, Dual Tone Multiple Frequency)收号,也可能包括自动收发( ASR, Automatic Send and Receive) 语音识别等。  With the support of the CSTA protocol, when a switching device is used as a queuing machine and is used in an IVR service, there are often business requirements such as playback and number collection. The playback may include ordinary specified file name playback, and may also include text. TTS (Text To Speech) playback; the received number may include normal DTMF (Dual Tone Multiple Frequency), or may include automatic transmission and reception (ASR) Wait.
目前的 CSTA协议中, 放音服务和收号服务是分开描述的。 放音服务只能携带一个 MessagelD, 指示普通的 MessagelD放音, 收号服务也只能指示简单的收号。在连续播放 多条语音的场景, 例如, 计算侧要求交换侧给用户播放语音: 工号 *为你服务; 由于 *为 不确定的语音, 计算侧不能通过一个 MessagelD把该语音携带下来, 而需要分三次下发 Play来完成。 在放音后收号处理过程中, 假如系统需要先给用户播放一段语音 "请输入 号码", 再对用户进行收号, 再根据用户输入的号码进行相关的处理, 按目前的 CSTA协 议, 会分为 PA、 PC两个服务下发。  In the current CSTA protocol, the playback service and the collection service are described separately. The playback service can only carry one MessagelD, indicating normal MessagelD playback, and the receiving service can only indicate a simple number. In a scenario where multiple voices are played continuously, for example, the computing side requires the switching side to play the voice to the user: the job number* serves you; since * is an indeterminate voice, the computing side cannot carry the voice through a MessagelD, but needs It is completed by issuing Play three times. In the process of receiving the number after the playback, if the system needs to play a voice "Please enter the number", then the user will receive the number, and then according to the number entered by the user, according to the current CSTA agreement, It is divided into two services, PA and PC.
上述 CSTA协议在处理放音、 收号服务中至少存在如下缺点:  The above CSTA protocol has at least the following disadvantages in handling playback and receiving services:
由于放音服务只能携带一个 MessagelD, 指示普通的 MessagelD放音, 收号服务也 只能指示简单的收号,在上述两种场景中,会存在计算侧与交换侧之间消息的频繁交互, 如果存在多数这种服务要求, 计算侧与交换侧的交互消息增多, 频繁的消息交互会影响 系统的各方面指标, 给系统带来负担。  Since the playback service can only carry one MessagelD, indicating the normal MessagelD playback, the receiving service can only indicate a simple number. In the above two scenarios, there will be frequent interactions between the computing side and the switching side. If there are many such service requirements, the number of interactive messages between the computing side and the switching side increases. Frequent message interactions affect various aspects of the system and impose a burden on the system.

} 步骤 11 : 发送所述融合特殊资源操作特性的 CSTA消息, 来处理 IVR业务。 } Step 11: Send the CSTA message that fuses the special resource operation characteristics to process the IVR service.
消息接收端接收到该融合特殊资源操作特性的 CSTA消息后, 解析所述接收的融合 特殊资源操作特性的 CSTA消息, 得到解析结果, 并根据解析结果控制相应功能模块执 行 IVR业务操作。 After receiving the CSTA message of the special resource operation feature, the message receiving end parses the received CSTA message of the fused special resource operation characteristic, obtains the parsing result, and controls the corresponding function module according to the parsing result. Perform IVR business operations.
利用所述融合特殊资源操作特性后的 CSTA消息处理 IVR业务的应用场景一,如图 2 所示, 用于解决放音问题, 举例如下: 计算侧要求交换侧给用户播放语音, 如: 工号 * 为你服务, 虽然 *为不确定的语音, 但计算侧可以通过一个 MessagelD列表把该语音携带 下来, 而不需要分多次下发 Hay来完成, 减少了计算侧与交换侧的频繁交互。 另外 Play 还可以携带时间, 日期, 金钱等变量音以及 TXT文本文件进行播放。  The application scenario of the IVR service processing by using the CSTA message after the special resource operation feature is as shown in FIG. 2 is used to solve the playback problem, as follows: The computing side requires the switching side to play the voice to the user, such as: * Serve for you, although * is an indeterminate voice, the computing side can carry the voice through a MessagelD list, instead of issuing the Hay multiple times to complete, reducing the frequent interaction between the computing side and the switching side. In addition, Play can also play time, date, money and other variable sounds as well as TXT text files for playback.
利用所述融合特殊资源操作特性后的 CSTA消息处理 IVR业务的应用场景二,如图 3 所示, 用于处理放音后的收号操作, 举例如下: 系统先给用户播放一段语音 "请输入号 码"后再对用户进行收号, 再根据用户输入的号码进行相关的处理, 按照扩展的 CSTA 协议, 只需要下发一个 PLAYANDCOLLECT服务即可实现, 本方法减少了计算侧和交换 侧消息交互, 提高计算侧和交换侧的性能等。  The application scenario 2 of the IVR service is processed by using the CSTA message after the special resource operation feature is integrated. As shown in FIG. 3, the method for processing the received number after the playback is as follows: The system first plays a voice to the user. After the number is received, the user is received and then processed according to the number entered by the user. According to the extended CSTA protocol, only one PLAYANDCOLLECT service can be delivered. This method reduces the message interaction between the computing side and the switching side. Improve the performance of the calculation side and the exchange side, and the like.
利用所述融合特殊资源操作特性后的 CSTA消息处理 IVR业务的应用场景三,如图 4 所示, 用于解决语音识别问题, 举例如下: 用户需要查询 "**大厦的位置", 系统先放 音提示用户 "请说出您需要查询的名称", 用户说出 "**大厦", 交换侧会根据识别结果 上报给计算侧, 计算侧收到识别结果后进行查询, 指示交换侧播报 "**大厦位于 **路 ** 号"。  The application scenario 3 of the IVR service is processed by using the CSTA message after the special resource operation feature is integrated, as shown in FIG. 4, for solving the speech recognition problem, as follows: The user needs to query the location of the "** building", and the system first puts The user is prompted to say "the name you need to query", the user says "** building", the exchange side will report it to the computing side according to the recognition result, and the computing side will receive the identification result and then query, indicating the exchange side broadcast "* * The building is located at ** Road **.
