METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ABBREVIATED TELEPHONE DIALING
Area of technology
The invention is related to the method and the system for abbreviated telephone dialing, having application in the telecommunication technology for establishing telephone communications, encoded by a telephone post with multiple arbitrary telephone subscribers, with which a logical telephone number is associated with the name of the telephone subscriber by means of an encoding symbol number.
Former state of the equipment
A method is known for establishing connections between the subscribers within a telephone network by which communication between the calling and the called telephone subscribers is realized by the use of at least one switching node, which is harmonized at least with one information processing node, where the signal from the calling telephone subscriber is processed and a signal corresponding to the number of the called telephone subscriber is determined. The signal coming from the calling telephone subscriber and received at the information processing node contains information in the form of combination of signs with an arbitrary length and sequence, on the basis of which the respective number of the called telephone subscriber is determined in the form of combination of digits with a specified length of the sequences.(l )
A system is known for establishing communication between the subscribers within the telephone network, which is built up by the terminal of the telephone subscribers, of at least one communication node for establishing communication between the calling and called telephone subscribers and with the harmonized with them at least one node for information processing, where processing of the calling subscriber is performed and the number of the called subscriber which corresponds to this signal is identified. The information processing node is capable to process the signal coming from the calling subscriber which contains information in the form of combination of signs with an arbitrary length of sequences, by which the respective number of the called l subscriber is being determined in the form of combination of digits with a specified length of the sequences.(l )
The disadvantages of this method are that no verification of the signal sent by the calling telephone subscriber is performed, thus the number of the called subscriber within the processing node cannot correspond to more than one signal sent by the calling telephone subscriber, as well as no verification can be made in case of wrong signal (not directed to any number of a called telephone subscriber within the processing node) given by the calling telephone subscriber. No messages node is ensured for sending text messages or at least one number of the called telephone subscriber to the calling telephone subscriber according to the signal sent by him. No encoding symbol number is ensured to make logic link between the signal entered by the calling telephone subscriber in the form of a digital code with unspecified length and sequence, and letters and symbols. No graphic-conversion software is used at the module of the calling telephone subscriber to convert and display the dialed digits into letters and symbols on the graphic display of the module of the calling telephone subscriber. No positioning software is used at the module of the calling telephone subscriber to decipher the text or graphic messages sent through the telephone switchboard to it, such as geographic coordinates, and to show them on a geographic map on the graphic display of the module of the calling telephone subscriber. No information dialing is applied to ensure graphic communication between the calling telephone subscriber and the telephone switchboard and for allowing the entering by the calling telephone subscriber of a code which could be digital, represented by the encoding symbol number, or symbolic, represented by letters, digits and symbols.
The disadvantages of the system are that no filter is provided to perform verification of the signal sent by the calling telephone subscriber, thus the number of the called telephone subscriber within the processing node cannot correspond to more than one signal sent by the calling telephone subscriber, as well as no verification can be made in case of wrong signal (not directed to any number of a called telephone subscriber within the processing node) sent by the calling telephone subscriber. No messages module (unit) is provided for sending text or graphic messages or at least one number of the called telephone subscriber to the calling telephone subscriber according to the signal sent by him. No encoding symbol number is provided to make logic link between the signal entered by the calling telephone subscriber in the form of a digital code with unspecified length and sequence, and letters and symbols. No graphic-conversion software is used at the module of the calling telephone subscriber to convert and display the dialed digits into letters and symbols on the graphic display of the module of the calling telephone subscriber. No positioning software is used at the module of the calling telephone subscriber to decipher text or graphic messages sent through the telephone switchboard to him, such as geographic coordinates, and to show them on a geographic map of the graphic display of the module of the calling telephone subscriber. No information dialing is used for establishing graphic communication between the telephone subscriber and the telephone switchboard and to allow the calling telephone subscriber to enter a code which could be digital, represented by the encoding symbol number, or symbolic, represented by letters, digits and symbols.
Technical characteristics of the invention
The purpose of the invention is creation of a method for abbreviate telephone dialing by which complete verification to be realized of the signal (encoding symbol number) sent by the calling telephone subscriber, thus the number of the called subscriber within the processing node can correspond to more then one signal sent by the calling telephone subscriber, as well as verification to be performed in case of wrong (not directed to any number of a called telephone subscriber within the processing node) signal (encoding symbol number) sent by the calling telephone subscriber. An encoding symbol number is provided representing a logical link between letters (symbols) and digits. A messages node is provided for sending text messages or at least one number of the called telephone subscriber to the calling telephone subscriber according to the signal sent by him. Graphic-conversion software has to be used at the module of the calling telephone subscriber to convert and show the dialed digits into letters and symbols on the graphic display of the module of the calling telephone subscriber. Positioning software has to be used at the module of the calling telephone subscriber to decipher the text or graphic messages sent through the telephone switchboard to him, such as geographic coordinates, and to show them on the geographic map of the graphic display of the module of the calling telephone subscriber. Information dialing has to be used to make graphic communication between the calling telephone subscriber and the telephone switchboard and to allow entering by the calling telephone subscriber of a code, which could be digital, represented by the encoding symbol number, or symbolic, represented by letters, digits and symbols. The purpose of the invention is creation of a method for abbreviate telephone dialing, where filter to be provided for verification of the signal (encoding symbol number) sent by the calling telephone subscriber, and thus the number of the called subscriber within the processing node to correspond to more then one signal (encoding symbol number) sent by the calling telephone subscriber, as well as verification to be realized in case of wrong (not directed to any number of a called telephone subscriber within the processing node) signal (encoding symbol number) sent by the calling telephone subscriber. A messages module (unit) is also provided for sending text or graphic messages or at least one number of the called telephone subscriber to the calling telephone subscriber according to the signal sent by him. Graphic-conversion software is provided at the module of the calling telephone subscriber to convert and show the dialed digits into letters and symbols on the graphic display of the module of the calling telephone subscriber. Positioning software is provided at the module of the calling telephone subscriber to decipher text or graphic messages sent through the telephone switchboard to him, such as geographic coordinates, and to show them on a geographic map on the graphic display of the module of the calling telephone subscriber. Information dialing is provided allowing graphic communication between the calling telephone subscriber and the telephone switchboard, as well as entering by the calling telephone subscriber of a code which could be digital, represented by the encoding symbol number or symbolic, represented by letters, digits and symbols.
The task was solved by the method for abbreviated dialing, where the communication is established between the subscribers within the telephone network and communication between the calling and the called telephone subscribers is realized by means of an encoding symbol number, at least one switching node, harmonized at least with one information processing node, at which the signal sent by the calling telephone subscriber is processed and the corresponding signal to the number of the called telephone subscriber is determined. According to this invention, when more than one numbers which correspond to the entered code (encoding symbol number) are found, the processing unit activates the filtering unit, which awaits the entering of the code to be completed, by which to be specified with which of the numbers of the called subscriber the calling subscriber wishes to establish communication or allows the calling subscriber to activate the message unit.
The task was solved by the method for abbreviated dialing, built up by a system for establishing communications between the subscribers within the telephone network and includes the terminal of the telephone subscribes, an encoding symbol number, at least one switching node for communication between the calling and the called telephone subscribers and the harmonized with them at least one information processing node, where the signal sent by the calling telephone subscriber is processed and the number of the called telephone subscriber which corresponds to this signal is identified through the filtering module.

Description of the figures attached
The invention is described in more details by example of the system for abbreviated telephone dialing, where:
- On Figure 1 is given a system for abbreviated telephone dialing.
- On Figure 2 is given a system for abbreviated telephone dialing with graphic-conversion software.
- On Figure 3 is given a system for abbreviated telephone dialing with positioning software.
- On Figure 4 is given a system for abbreviated telephone dialing with graphic-conversion software and positioning software.
- On Figure 5 is given a system for abbreviated telephone dialing with possible information dialing.
Example
The application of the method and the system for abbreviated telephone dialing is as follows:
As shown on the attached figure 1 - the method for connecting at least one calling telephone subscriber 1 , connected at least with one switching node (module) 3, connected at least with one filtering node 5, connected at least with one processing node (module) 4, at least one messages node (module) 6 and at least one called telephone subscriber 2 by means of an encoding symbol number 10. The filtering node (module) 5 can be a part of the processing node (module) 4. The messages node (module) 6 can be a part of the processing node (module) 4. The encoding symbol number 10 represents a logical link between letters (symbols) and digits. By three letters (symbols) correspond to each digit of the keyboard of the telephone set. This logical link between the digits and the letters (symbols) is used by the calling telephone subscriber 1 for formation of the signal dialed, namely for entering of a name by using digits. Graphic-conversion software 7 can be used at the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 to convert and show the dialed digits into letters and symbols on the graphic display of the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1. Positioning software 8 can be used at the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 to decipher text or graphic messages sent through the telephone switchboard 3 to him, such as geographic coordinates, and to show them on a geographic map on the graphic display of the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1. The information dialing 9 can be used for making graphic communication between the calling telephone subscriber 1 and the telephone switchboard 3, providing the possibility for entering by the calling telephone subscriber 1 of a code, which could be digital, represented by the encoding symbol number 10, or symbolic, represented by letters, digits and symbols.
The calling telephone subscriber 1 can be connected through the telephone switchboard, which could in particular be an automatic telephone exchange 3 with the filtering unit 5, awaiting a code with unspecified length and containing an arbitrary combination of symbols to be entered by the calling subscriber - an encoding symbol number 10, which ends with a specified symbol. This symbol could be for example #. The entered symbol (#) indicates to the filtering unit 5 that the entering of the code by the calling subscriber 1 has ended and this code can be sent at least to one processing unit 4. The use of the filtering unit 5 leads to quick action and correct entering of the code by the calling subscriber 1. After the code is received the processing unit 4 starts searching for at least one number of the telephone subscriber (of the called telephone subscriber 2) that corresponds to this code. To one entered code at least one telephone number of the called subscriber could correspond (i.e. they could be more then one). When the corresponding number is found, the processing node (module) 4 activates the filtering unit 5 and the telephone switchboard 3, allowing the calling subscriber 1 to choose whether to be directly connected through the telephone switchboard 3 with the called telephone subscriber 2, or to activate the message unit. The message unit 6 has the task to send free text or graphic messages to the calling telephone subscriber 1. For example, the message unit can retrieve from the processing unit 4 at least one number (of the called subscriber) which corresponds to the code as entered (by the calling subscriber) and to send it through the telephone switchboard 3 in the form of text or graphic messages to the calling telephone subscriber 1. If no number which has been preliminary registered at the processing unit 4 (encoding symbol number 10), which corresponds to the code entered, is found, then the processing unit 4 activates the filtering unit 5 and the telephone switchboard 3, which return the algorithm at the very beginning, and the filtering unit 5 awaits a code to be entered by the calling subscriber 1. In case more then one number which correspond to the code entered are found, then the processing unit 4 activates the filtering unit 5, which awaits the entering of the code to be completed and thus to be determined with which of the numbers of the called subscriber 2 the calling subscriber 1 wishes to be connected or allows the calling subscriber 1 to activate the message unit 6, which can send free text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1 or to retrieve from the processing unit 4 all numbers of the called subscriber 2 which correspond to the code entered by the calling subscriber 1 and to send them through the telephone switchboard 3 in the form of text message or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1.
As shown on the enclosed figure 1 , the system for abbreviated telephone dialing is built up by the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 and the module of the called telephone subscriber 2, connected through at least one telephone switchboard - an automatic telephone exchange 3, by means of an encoding symbol number 10, the processing unit 4, the filtering unit 5 and the message unit 6. The telephone switchboard 3 is connected by reverse connections with the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 , the module of the called telephone subscriber 2, the processing unit 4, the filtering unit 5 and the message unit 6.
The encoding symbol number 10 represents a logical link between letters (symbols) and digits. To each digit of the keyboard of the telephone set three letters (symbols) correspond. This is the logical link between the digits and letters (symbols) which is used by the calling telephone subscriber 1 for formation of the signal it dials, namely, the entering of a name by using digits. Graphic-conversion software 7 can be used at the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 to convert and show the dialed digits into letters and symbols on the graphic displays of the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1. Positioning software 8 can be used at the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 to decipher text or graphic messages sent through the telephone switchboard 3 to him, such as geographic coordinates, and to show them on a geographic map of the graphic display of the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1. Information dialing 9 can be used for making graphic communication between the calling telephone subscriber 1 and the telephone switchboard 3 and for allowing the entering by the calling telephone subscriber 1 of a code which could be digital, represented by the encoding symbol number 10, or symbolic, represented by letters, digits and symbols.
The calling telephone subscriber 1 can be connected through the telephone switchboard, which could in particular be an automatic telephone exchange 3, with the filtering unit 5, which awaits the entering by the calling subscriber of a code with unlimited length and containing an arbitrary combination of symbols - an encoding symbolic number 10, ending by a specified symbol. This symbol can be for example #. The entering of the symbol (#) indicates to the filtering unit 5 that entering of the code of the calling subscriber 1 has ended and this code can be sent to at least one processing unit 4. The use of the filter unit 5 leads to quick action and precision in entering of the code by the calling subscriber 1. Upon receiving a code, the processing unit 4 starts retrieving of at least one number of the telephone subscriber (of the called telephone subscriber 2) which corresponds to this code. One to one entered code at least one telephone number of the called subscriber to correspond (i.e. they could be more then one). After the corresponding number is found, the processing node (module) 4 activates the filtering unit 5 and the telephone switchboard 3, thus allowing the calling subscriber 1 to choose whether to be connected directly through the telephone switchboard 3 with the called telephone subscriber 2, or to activate the message unit. The message unit 6 has the task to send free text or graphic messages to the calling telephone subscriber 1. For example, the message unit can retrieve from the processing unit 4 at least one number (of the called subscriber) which corresponds to the code as entered (by the calling subscriber) and to send it through the telephone switchboard 3 in the form of text or graphic messages to the calling telephone subscriber 1. After a number which is preliminary registered at the processing unit 4 and corresponds to the entered code (encoding symbol number 10) is found, the processing unit 4 activates the filtering unit 5 and the telephone switchboard 3, which returns the algorithm back at the very beginning and the filtering unit 5 awaits a code to be entered by the calling subscriber 1. When more then one number which correspond to the entered code are found, then the processing unit 4 activates the filtering unit 5, which awaits the entering of the code to be completed, thus to be specified with which of the numbers of the called subscriber 2, the calling subscriber 1 wishes to be connected, or allows the calling subscriber 1 to activates the message unit 6, which can send free text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1 or retrieve from the processing unit 4 all numbers of the called subscriber 2 which correspond to the code as entered by the calling subscriber 1 , and to send them through the telephone switchboard 3 in the form of text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1.
Another example shown on figure 2 - the system for abbreviated dialing is built up by the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 and the module of the called telephone subscriber 2, connected through at least one telephone switchboard - an automatic telephone exchange 3, by means of an encoding symbol number 10, the processing unit 4, the filtering unit 5 and the message unit 6. The telephone switchboard 3 is connected by reverse connections with the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 , the module of the called telephone subscriber 2, the processing unit 4, the filtering unit 5 and the message unit 6. The module of the calling telephone subscriber is equipped with graphic- conversion software 7.
The calling telephone subscriber 1 is connected through the telephone switchboard, which could in particular be an automatic telephone exchange 3 with the filtering unit 5, which awaits entering by the calling subscriber of a code with unlimited length and containing an arbitrary combination of symbols - an encoding symbol number 10, ending by a specified symbol. This symbol can be for example #. The entered symbol (#) indicates to the filtering unit 5 that the entering of the code by the calling subscriber 1 has ended and this code can be sent to at least one processing unit 4. The use of the filtering unit 5 leads to quick action and precision in the entering of the code by the calling subscriber 1. After the code is received, the processing unit 4 starts searching for at least of one number of the telephone subscriber (of the called telephone subscriber 2) which corresponds to this code. It is possible that to one entered code at least one telephone number of the called subscriber to correspond (i.e. they can be more then one). After the number that corresponds to the code is found, the processing node (module) 4 activates the filtering unit 5 and the telephone switchboard 3, allowing the calling subscriber 1 to choose whether to be directly connected through the telephone switchboard 3 with the called telephone subscriber 2 or to activate the message unit. The message unit 6 has the task to send free text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1. For example, the message unit can retrieve from the processing unit 4 at least one number (of the called subscriber) which corresponds to the dialed (by the calling subscriber) code and to send it through the telephone switchboard 3 in the form of a text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1. If no number as preliminary registered at the processing unit 4 which to correspond to the entered code (encoding symbol number 10) is found, then the processing unit 4 activates the filtering unit 5 and the telephone switchboard 3, which return back the algorithm at the very beginning and the filtering unit 5 awaits a code to be entered by the calling subscriber 1. If more then one numbers which correspond to the code entered are found, the processing unit 4 then activates the filtering unit 5, which awaits entering of the code to be completed and thus to be specified with which of the numbers of the called subscriber 2 the calling subscriber 1 wishes to be connected or to allows the calling subscriber 1 to activate the message unit 6, which can sent free text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber , or to retrieve from the processing unit 4 all numbers of the called subscriber 2 which correspond to the code entered by the calling subscriber 1 and to send them through the telephone switchboard 3 in the form of text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber I .The module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 is equipped with graphic-conversion software 7 allowing graphic conversion and showing the dialed digits into letters and symbols on the graphic display.
Another example shown on 3 - the system for abbreviated dialing is built up by the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 and the module of the called telephone subscriber 2, connected through at least one telephone switchboard - an automatic telephone exchange 3, by means of the encoding symbol number 10, the processing unit 4, the filtering unit 5 and the message unit 6. The telephone switchboard 3 is connected by reverse connections with the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 , the module of the called telephone subscriber 2, the processing unit 4, the filtering unit 5 and the message unit 6. The module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 is equipped with the positioning software 8.
The calling telephone subscriber 1 realizes communication through the telephone switchboard, which in particular can be an automatic telephone exchange 3, with the filtering unit 5, which awaits the entering by the calling subscriber of a code with unlimited length and containing an arbitrary combination of symbols - an encoding symbol number 10, ending by a specified symbol. This symbol can be for example #. Entering of this symbol (#) indicates to the filtering unit 5, that the entering of the code by the calling subscriber 1 has ended and this code can be sent to at least one processing unit 4. The use of the filtering unit 5 leads to quick action and precision in the entering of the code by the calling subscriber 1. After the code is received, the processing unit 4 starts searching for at least to one number of the telephone subscriber (the called telephone subscriber 2) which corresponds to this code. It is possible that to one code as entered at least one telephone number of the called subscriber to correspond (i.e. they can be more then one). When the corresponding number is found, the processing node (module) 4 activates the filtering unit 5 and the telephone switchboard 3, which allows the calling subscriber 1 to choose whether to be connected directly through the telephone switchboard 3 with the called telephone subscriber 2 or to activate the message unit. The message unit 6 has the task to send free text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1. For example, the message unit can retrieve from the processing unit 4 at least one number (of the called subscriber) which corresponds to the code as entered (by the calling subscriber) and to send it through the telephone switchboard 3 in the form of free text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1.

The telephone switchboard 3 is connected by reverse connections with the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 , the module of the called telephone subscriber 2, the processing unit 4, the filtering unit 5, and the message unit 6. The module of the calling telephone subscriber is equipped with graphic- conversion software 7. The module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 is equipped with positioning software 8.
The calling telephone subscriber 1 is connected through the telephone switchboard, which in particular can be an automatic telephone exchange 3, with the filtering unit 5, which awaits the entering by the calling subscriber of a code with unlimited length and containing an arbitrary combination of symbols - an encoding number 10, ending with a specified symbol. This symbol can be for example #.

After a code is received, the processing unit 4 starts searching for at least one number of the telephone subscriber (of the called telephone subscriber 2) which corresponds to this code. It is possible that to one code as entered at least one telephone number of the called subscriber to correspond (i.e. they can be more then one). When the number that corresponds is found the processing node (module) 4 activates the filtering unit 5 and the telephone switchboard 3, thus allowing the calling subscriber 1 to choose whether to be connected directly through the telephone switchboard 3 with the called telephone subscriber 2 or to activate the message unit. The message unit 6 has the task to send free text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1. For example, the message unit can retrieve from the processing unit 4 at least one number (to the called subscriber) which corresponds to the code as entered (by calling subscriber) and to send it through the telephone switchboard 3 in the form of text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1.

Another exemplary implementation is shown on figure 5 - the system for abbreviated telephone dialing is built up by the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 and the module of the called telephone subscriber 2, connected through at least one telephone switchboard - an automatic telephone exchange 3, the processing unit 4, and the message unit 6. The telephone switchboard 3 is connected through reverse connections with the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 , the module of the called telephone subscriber 2, the processing unit 4, and the message unit 6, where the calling telephone subscriber 1 is connected with the telephone switchboard 3 through the information dialing 9.
The calling telephone subscriber 1 is connected through the telephone switchboard, which in particular can be an automatic telephone exchange 3, where for dialing the calling telephone subscriber 1 uses the information dialing 9 by entering the symbol *, followed by a digital combination with a length of at least one symbol, followed by the symbol #, for example, *123#. The calling telephone subscriber 1 is already connected through the telephone switchboard 3 with the processing unit 4, which awaits a code with unspecified length and containing an arbitrary combination of symbols, letters and digits to be entered by the calling subscriber. This code could be digital, represented by the encoding symbol number 10, or symbolic, represented by letters, digits and symbols. It is possible by using the information dialing 9 the connection to the telephone switchboard 3 to be realized. After the code is entered it is sent at least to one processing unit 4. After a code is received, the processing unit 4 starts searching for at least one number of the telephone subscriber (of the called telephone subscriber 2) which corresponds to this code. It is possible to one code as entered at least one telephone number of the called subscriber to correspond (i.e. they could be more then one). When the number which corresponds to the entered code is found, the processing node (module) 4 activates the telephone switchboard 3, allowing the calling subscriber 1 to choose whether to be connected directly with the called telephone subscriber 2 or to activate the message unit. The message unit 6 has the task to send free text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1. For example, the message unit can retrieve from the processing unit 4 at least one number (to the called subscriber) which corresponds to the code as entered (by the calling subscriber) and to send it through the telephone switchboard 3 in the form of text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1. After finding of the number which is preliminary registered at the processing unit 4 and corresponds to the code as entered, the processing unit 4 activates the telephone switchboard 3, which returns the algorithm back at the very beginning and awaits the entering of the code by the calling subscriber 1. When more then one numbers which correspond to the code as entered are found, the processing unit 4 activates the telephone switchboard 3, which awaits the entering of the code to be completed and thus to be specified with which number of the called subscriber 2, the calling subscriber 1 wishes to be connected or allows the calling subscriber 1 to activate the message unit 6, which can send free text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1 , or to retrieve from the processing unit 4 all numbers of the called subscriber 2 which correspond to the code as entered by the calling subscriber 1 and to send them through the telephone switchboard 3 in the form of text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1.
Another example is shown on figure 6 - the system for abbreviated dialing at the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 and the module of the called telephone subscriber 2, connected through at least one telephone switchboard - an automatic telephone exchange 3, the processing unit 4, and the message unit 6. The telephone switchboard 3 is connected by reverse connections with the module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 , the module of the called telephone subscriber 2, the processing unit 4, and the message unit 6. The module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 is equipped with positioning software 8. The module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 is connected with the telephone switchboard 3 through the information dialing 9.
The calling telephone subscriber 1 is connected through the telephone switchboard, which in particular can be an automatic telephone exchange 3, where for dialing, the calling telephone subscriber 1 uses the information dialing 9 by entering the symbol *, followed by a digital combination with a length of at least one symbol, followed by the symbol #, for example *123#. The calling telephone subscriber 1 is already connected through the telephone switchboard 3 with the processing unit 4, which awaits the entering by the calling subscriber of a code with unlimited length and containing an arbitrary combination of symbols, letters and digits. This code can be digital, represented by the encoding symbol number 10, or symbolic, represented by letters, digits and symbols. It is possible by using the information dialing 9, connection to the telephone switchboard 3 to be realized. After the code is entered it is sent at least to one processing unit 4. After receiving of a code, the processing unit 4 starts searching for at least one number which corresponds to this code of the telephone subscriber (of the called telephone subscriber 2). It possible to one entered code at least one telephone number of the called subscriber to correspond (i.e. they could be more then one). When the number that corresponds to the code entered is found, the processing node (module) 4 activates the telephone switchboard 3, allowing the calling subscriber 1 to choose whether to be directly connected with the called telephone subscriber 2 or to activate the message unit. The message unit 6 has the task to send free text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1. For example, the message unit can retrieve at the processing unit 4 at least one number (of the called subscriber) that corresponds to the entered code (by the calling subscriber) and to send it through the telephone switchboard 3 in form of free text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1. After the number, preliminary registered at the processing unit 4, which corresponds to the code entered is found, then the processing unit 4 activates the telephone switchboard 3, which returns the algorithm back at the very beginning and awaits a code to be entered by the calling subscriber 1. After more then one numbers that correspond to the code entered are found, the processing unit 4 activates the telephone switchboard 3, which awaits the entering of the code to be completed and thus to be specified with which of the numbers of the called subscriber 2 the calling subscriber 1 wishes to be connected, or allows the calling subscriber 1 to activate the message unit 6, which can send free text or graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1 or to retrieve from the processing unit 4 all numbers of the called subscriber 2 that correspond to the code entered by the calling subscriber 1 and to send them through telephone switchboard 3 in the form of text and graphic message to the calling telephone subscriber 1. The module of the calling telephone subscriber 1 is equipped with the positioning software 8 allowing deciphering of text and graphic message sent by the telephone switchboard 3, such as geographic coordinates, and to localize and show them on a geographic map on the graphic display of the calling telephone subscriber 1.
