Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current call routing systems in mobility networks face challenges in seamlessly routing calls between mobile devices and network devices, particularly across different service providers and geographical regions, leading to inefficiencies and limitations in call management.
Innovation Solution
The implementation of a call routing platform that utilizes an Internet Protocol (IP) multimedia system, global mobile switching centers, media gateway control functions, and signaling system number 7 (SS7) queries to route calls through a database-driven system, enabling call forking, web-to-web calls, and real-time communication API integration, allowing calls to be routed to the most appropriate device or network device based on subscriber data and location.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional call routing systems are used in mobility networks, then call management can be performed with basic hardware or software systems, but seamless routing between mobile devices and network devices across different service providers and geographical regions cannot be achieved
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a Session Border Controller (SBC) as an intermediary component that mediates between traditional telephony networks and IP-based networks. The SBC performs protocol conversion, call routing decisions, and interoperability functions, enabling seamless call routing between mobile devices and network devices across different service providers without requiring complete system redesign
Solution Approach 2:
The routing system is designed with multi-functional capabilities to handle various call types (voice, video, data), multiple network protocols (SS7, SIP, H.323), and different service provider interfaces simultaneously. This universal design allows the same system to route calls across diverse networks and devices without requiring separate specialized systems for each function
2Productivity
If basic call routing is implemented, then system simplicity is maintained, but call management efficiency and user experience across different geographical regions deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The call routing system is segmented into distinct functional modules including call admission, routing decision engines, protocol translators, and session management components. This segmentation allows each module to perform its specific function efficiently while working together as an integrated system, improving overall call management efficiency without requiring a monolithic complex system
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-configuring routing tables, establishing protocol translations in advance, and setting up session parameters before calls are initiated. This preparation work enables faster call routing decisions and reduces latency during actual call establishment, improving productivity without adding operational complexity
3Reliability
If calls are routed through multiple service providers and geographical regions, then call connectivity is improved, but routing time and system response time increase
Solution Approach 1:
Routing tables and path information are pre-calculated and stored before calls are initiated. When a call needs to route through multiple service providers, the system retrieves pre-determined optimal paths from stored tables rather than calculating routes in real-time, significantly reducing routing time while maintaining reliable connectivity across geographical regions
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms that monitor call routing performance, network conditions, and connection success rates. This feedback is used to dynamically adjust routing decisions and update path information, enabling the system to learn from past routing experiences and optimize future routing time while maintaining high connectivity reliability
Data Source
AI summary
A call routing platform system can be used to facilitate routing of a call to a mobile device and a real-time communication API enable device simultaneously. A mobile device number associated with a mobile device can be registered with a call routing service to facilitate call forking between the mobile device and the real-time communication API enabled device. The call routing platform system can comprise an IP multimedia system to facilitate the call forking.
