Embodiment Construction

[0020] The invention disclosed herein provides a method and system for communicating Interactive Voice Response (IVR) data to a call originating device using a preconnected telephony communication channel. The call originating device can receive and display the IVR menu. Furthermore, the present invention may provide means for navigating IVR menus. It should be noted that the display and navigation of the IVR menus can be done offline. The originating device can allow the user to select a node from a presented IVR menu. The user selected node may then be communicated to the IVR system. A telephone voice channel connection can be made between the IVR system and the originating device, and the IVR system can navigate to the location specified by the user-selected node.

[0021] figure 1 A schematic diagram of a telephone system 100 including an IVR system in accordance with the inventive arrangements disclosed herein is shown. Such as figure 1 As shown, system 100 may incl...

Abstract

A method of receiving and presenting interactive voice response data includes sending a telephony connection request for establishing a voice channel connection between an originating device and an interactive voice response system. Before establishing the voice channel connection, an interactive voice response menu associated with the interactive voice response system may be received over a ringback channel. At least a portion of the interactive voice response menu may be provided to a user of the originating device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of telecommunications, and more particularly, to interactive voice response applications and preconnection telephone signals. Background technique [0002] The advent of Interactive Voice Response (IVR) applications for use in telephone systems has reduced operating costs for many types of businesses by reducing the need for telephone-related staffing. Such IVR applications typically answer incoming telephone calls and present the caller with an audible menu of selectable options. Callers typically make menu selections in one of two ways: by pressing a key or sequence of keys on a touch-tone keypad; or by speaking. [0003] Often multiple hierarchical related menus are provided through which the caller must navigate to find the option to select. Navigating through such menus can be time consuming and frustrating, especially if the caller makes an incorrect selection during the navigation. Consequently, call...
