Innovation Solution
A system comprising a color ring service server, WEB server, interface machine, and media server, utilizing BICC protocol for signaling and SIP/IuUP protocols for media negotiation, allowing users to self-serve and customize color ring services through a user-friendly interface, enabling seamless integration with IP networks.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional color ring services are implemented over IP networks, then the system adapts to IP transformation of core networks, but existing technologies do not provide a method to implement user self-serving color ring services over IP
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a Color Ring Service Server as an intermediary component that bridges traditional color ring service functionality with IP network infrastructure. This server receives BICC protocol signaling from the core network, processes color ring service logic, and interfaces with the Media Server for actual ringback tone delivery, thereby enabling reliable service implementation over IP networks where none existed before
Solution Approach 2:
The system segments the color ring service functionality into distinct modular components: a Color Ring Service Server handling signaling and service logic, a Media Server handling actual media playback, and a Color Ring Interface Machine handling user interaction. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized for its specific function and facilitates reliable integration over IP networks
2Ease of operation
If users can self-serve and customize color ring services, then user experience is enhanced, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a Color Ring Interface Machine that enables users to autonomously perform service customization tasks including subscribing to color ring services, selecting ringback tones, and configuring service parameters through voice commands. This self-service capability enhances user experience by allowing direct control without operator intervention, while the automated processing logic manages the complexity behind the scenes
Solution Approach 2:
The Color Ring Service Server is designed as a universal platform that handles multiple service functions including service subscription, tone selection, parameter configuration, and service delivery through a single integrated system. This multi-functionality consolidates what would otherwise require multiple separate systems, managing complexity while enabling comprehensive user self-service capabilities

AI summary
A method for implementing a color ring user self-serving service is provided; the method is implemented by user equipment and a color ring service system via a core network device. The user equipment sends a color ring self-serving service setup request to the color ring service system via the core network device, the color ring service system triggers the self-serving service after receiving the request, receives the self-serving service operation of the user equipment via the core network device, processes it, and then returns the processing result to the user equipment via the core network device, thereby realizing the self-serving service. A color ring service system and core network device for implementing a color ring self-serving service is provided; the color ring service system is for processing content of the color ring self-serving service operation of the user equipment, and the core network device is for realizing the communication between the user equipment and the color ring service system.
