A triggering method for IP multimedia service control. The triggering method comprises examining a SIP response message received by a S-CSCF according to a set of response Filter Criteria (rFC), and subsequently recording a corresponding SIP request message and re-issuing the SIP request message to an application server designated by the rFC if the SIP response message matches the Service Point Triggers (SPTs) of the rFC. The S-CSCF examines the SPTs of the rFC one by one according to their indicated priority. The rFC scheme is useful when the application servers are triggered according to the SIP response message, and is compatible with the iFC scheme. The rFC scheme of the present invention improves the efficiency for call establishment as well as improving the flexibility of the S-CSCF.

In a communications network, voice and facsimile calls are established between first and second and second terminals via first and second media gateways in a communications network. Each gateway is capable of autonomous transitioning between a voice over IP (VoIP) call mpde and a facsimile ov er IP (FoIP) call mode. A bearer path for the call is established via a media gateway controller. During call setup, the media gateways exchange confirmation of each gateway's capability to perform autonomous transitioning between VoIP and FoIP call modes. The call is established as a VoIP call, and, on a determination by the media gateways that a facsimile call is required, each media gateway autonomously transitions between its VoIP and FoIP call modes without the intervention of the media gateway controller.

A communication device establishes a connection in a congested wireless communications network environment by systematically reducing a probability of attempting to connect to a strongest, but overly-congested, cell. A transceiver of the communications device attempts at least one first Random Access Channel (RACH) procedure with a first cell that is currently designated as a serving cell. A RACH controller of the communications device detects a failure to successfully connect to the first cell via the at least one first RACH procedure, autonomously determines, based at least on a probability value, which is greater than 0% and less than 100%, whether to de-prioritize the first cell for a period of time, and, in response to determining to de-prioritize the first cell, reduces a priority value assigned at the UE to the first cell for cell selection/reselection, and assigns a selected time period during which the priority value remains reduced.

An improved access attempt procedure for call establishment is achieved by deriving a probability of access transmission as a function of both a priority level for access attempts and a random access cause, and performing link establishment authentication and security control call establishment based upon the deriving.

In a communication network, every subscriber has among all the calls he originates one or more call groups he frequently calls. To avoid repetitive call processing, the network allows for a more efficient call processing using the routing information of a previous call to the same subscriber. This allows a network element such as a switch to use existing routing information for the next same call instead of determining the routing information each time anew. The network and a method implemented therein identify the one or more call groups, store the routing information for these call groups, and use the stored routing information for the next same-call establishment.

In accordance with the invention, it is possible to reduce the connection time and load required to resume a call establishment associated with the mobile station maintained in a dormant state.

A method of authenticating an authorized entity via the telephone network is disclosed. A telephone call is placed from a telecommunications terminal to a server that comprises a valuable resource and that only provides the resource to authorized entities. When the terminal has already demonstrated its authorization to the server, the server indicates to the terminal that the terminal need not provide its authorization credentials. In contrast, when the terminal has not yet demonstrated its authorization to the server, the server indicates to the terminal that the terminal does need to provide its authorization credentials. The server indicates to the terminal whether or not it needs to provide its authorization credentials by deliberating waiting to establish the call with the terminal, wherein in the length of the wait is indicative of whether or not the terminal needs to provide its authorization credentials.

In a switched circuit telephone network implementing an SS7 protocol with out-of-band signaling for call establishment, the specification discloses a proxy load balancer coupled between a signaling gateway and application server processes running application services. The proxy load balancer receives signaling messages from the signaling gateway directed to an application server process running an application service, and forwards that signaling message to one of two or more application server processes, each running the application service. In this way, additional application server processes may be installed in the system without reconfiguration or even knowledge of the signaling gateway. The proxy load balancer appears as a single application server process running an application service to the signaling gateway, and correspondingly appears as a signaling gateway to the two or more application server processes running application services downstream of the proxy load balancer.

In situations in which one or both parties of a call cannot speak on a telephone, a voice call establishment request (5-0) from an calling terminal (A) to a called terminal (B) is processed as follows. The called terminal (B) is alerted and a two-way connection (5-14; 5-24 . . . 5-28) is established between the calling terminal (A) and the called terminal (B). In response to determining (3-10; 3-14; 5-8) that a two-way voice call between the calling terminal (A) and the called terminal (B) is not allowed; a mode server (MS, MS′) receives silent messages (5-14; 5-24) via a user interface (UI) of the called terminal (B) and conveys (5-14; 5-26 . . . 5-28) information based on said silent messages to the calling terminal (A).

The invention provides a method and a system for selectively delivering information to callers in an AIN environment. In accordance with the method the service switching point to which is connected the terminal equipment of the caller monitors the condition of the telephone line to detect an AIN trigger, such as an off-hook event among other possibilities. When such event occurs, the service switch point formulates a message query. The query is routed to a service control point via one or more service transfer points, that holds knowledge of the service subscribed by the caller and the information to be displayed for this service. The service control point analyzes the request and assembles the appropriate response. That response is then returned to the service switch point that formats it properly and delivers it to the terminal equipment of the caller. In one embodiment the information delivery is effected during call establishment. In a variant, information is delivered while no call is being attempted.

A method and apparatus in a H.323 based network to effect messaging from a message server to a calling subscriber prior to or during a usual call establishment. The calling subscriber sends a SETUP message to an associated Gatekeeper to request a call set-up. On receiving the request, the Gatekeeper searches a stored caller service profile for information regarding the messaging service. If the search is successful, the gatekeeper sends, on basis of the caller service profile information contents, a SETUP message to the message server, and the transfer of the message from the message server to the caller is effected. The originally requested call set-up is then completed according to known H.323 call set-up procedures.

Compared with a solution of a private network cluster communication system which is built on the basis of the second generation mobile communication technology, according to the technical scheme, the requirement for the broadband of the cluster service can be effectively met, and transmission efficiency is improved. In addition, the utilization rate of frequency resources can be improved, and application of a cluster communication service is expanded from a traditional private network to a mobile public network.

An IP-based group communication feature in a mobile communication network is based on the pre-established logical connections established between a gateway node (GGSN) and members of a group in the mobile communication network. No separate call establishment procedures using VoIP signaling are used for connecting a user equipment (UE) logically to group(s), but the procedure is preferably based on the normal logical connection establishment signaling (e.g. PDP context creation) as used for data service. The UE implements a host supporting the IP multicasting, and the next IP layer peer for the UE host is located in the gateway node. The gateway node provides an IP interface towards an external multicast router so that the UE host looks like a normal IP host supporting IP multicasting. The IP-based voice traffic is mapped and transferred over pre-established connections between the gateway and the UEs of the specific group.
