Auto-Connect Mechanism for Telecommunication Reconnection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing telecommunication systems face challenges in re-establishing stable voice communication connections between subscribers, particularly when network components or external factors cause connection losses, leading to frustrating and unsuccessful reconnection attempts, especially for mobile users in areas with poor coverage.
Innovation Solution
An auto-connect mechanism is implemented within the telecommunication system to automatically redirect and establish communication connections between subscribers by checking incoming and outgoing requests, utilizing 3rd party call control and SIP protocols, and configuring parameters for flexible operation, thereby avoiding conflict situations and ensuring successful reconnection without subscriber intervention.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If manual re-establishment attempts are made by subscribers after connection loss, then connection re-establishment is attempted, but conflict situations occur leading to failed reconnections and increased reconnection time
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables self-service by automatically detecting connection losses and initiating re-establishment procedures without requiring subscriber intervention. The network infrastructure monitors call states and autonomously performs reconnection attempts, eliminating the need for manual redialing by subscribers.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms where the network continuously monitors connection status and subscriber availability. When a connection is lost, the system receives feedback about the loss and the subsequent availability of subscribers, using this information to intelligently manage reconnection timing and avoid conflict situations.
2Ease of operation
If call forwarding mechanisms redirect calls to voice mailboxes during connection loss, then unavailable subscribers receive redirected calls, but both parties end up connected to voice mailboxes instead of each other
Solution Approach 1:
The system uses the network infrastructure as an intermediary that intelligently manages call routing between subscribers. Instead of directly forwarding calls to voice mailboxes, the network mediator detects when both parties are attempting to reconnect and coordinates their reconnection, preventing the dual-voicemail scenario while maintaining ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-detecting connection losses and preparing reconnection parameters before subscribers attempt manual reconnection. This preliminary detection and preparation enables the system to intercept and redirect reconnection attempts appropriately, ensuring accurate connection establishment.
3Productivity
If subscribers frequently attempt reconnection after connection loss, then reconnection attempts are made, but conflict situations compound and avoid successful re-establishment
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements periodic monitoring of connection status and implements reconnection attempts at optimized intervals rather than immediately or randomly. This periodic approach with controlled timing increases the success rate by avoiding overlapping attempts while maintaining efficient reconnection speed through systematic retry mechanisms.

AI summary
Method of re-establishing an interrupted communication connection between a first and a second subscriber (30,40) of a telecommunication network, wherein an auto-connect mechanism is triggered by a re-establishment attempt (80) of the first and/or of the second subscriber wherein the auto-connect mechanism redirects the re-establishment attempts of the first and/or of the second subscriber in such a manner that a communication connection (80') between the first and second subscriber is established. In a second aspect, a method of re-establishing an interrupted communication connection between a first and a second subscriber includes monitoring an ongoing connection by the network and imitating re-establishment of the connection by the network in case of a detected connection loss.
