Solution Overview

Problem

Current call interaction management solutions are static and limited, failing to provide dynamic and flexible management of various call interactions across different services and events, lacking comprehensive management capabilities.

Innovation Solution

A dynamic call interaction management system that uses a mapping table to associate call interaction conditions with services, allowing users to launch specific services based on call events, enabling simultaneous or prioritized triggering of services across multiple call events.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If static filtering solutions are used for call interaction, then implementation is simple, but flexibility and adaptability are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecall interaction management flexibilityVSAvoidsystem configuration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic call interaction management by allowing users to define custom rules and conditions that can be modified at any time. The system transitions from static filtering to dynamic rule-based management where users can create, modify, and delete call handling rules based on changing needs, call events, or conditions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments call interaction management into multiple independent rules, each handling specific conditions or call events. Users can define separate rules for different scenarios (e.g., incoming calls, outgoing calls, busy lines) and combine them to create comprehensive call management strategies without overwhelming complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple services are triggered simultaneously based on call events, then comprehensive call management is achieved, but processing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice triggering capabilityVSAvoidrule processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent allows users to pre-define rules and conditions before call events occur. Users can set up comprehensive rule sets in advance that automatically trigger appropriate services based on predicted or actual call events, reducing the need for complex real-time processing decisions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback mechanisms where call events and their outcomes are monitored, and this information can be used to refine rule effectiveness. Users can review which rules are triggering most effectively and adjust accordingly, simplifying the overall processing by focusing on high-performing rules.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Ease of operation

If dynamic configuration allows is implemented, then user flexibility is enhanced, but configuration time and effort increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser configuration easeVSAvoidconfiguration time
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent enables users to self-configure call interaction rules without requiring technical expertise or complex setup procedures. The user-friendly interface allows individuals to define their own call handling preferences, conditions, and services, making the system adaptable to personal needs while minimizing configuration time through intuitive design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

A method of interacting with a call event for a mobile user equipment, said method comprising the acts of monitoring the occurrence of a call event, retrieving call interaction conditions associated with said call event from a mapping table, said mapping table defining per type of call event call interaction conditions necessary for triggering at least one service available to the mobile user equipment, triggering the at least one service provided the retrieved call interaction conditions are met.
