Scrolling Ticker IMS Presence Notification System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing telecommunications systems fail to cost-effectively and user-friendlily integrate scrolling ticker technology with IP Multimedia Subsystems (IMS) and presence servers to initiate communications based on subscriber availability.
Innovation Solution
A system and method that detects the status of a wireless device, notifies another device via a scrolling ticker message, and establishes a communication session using an IMS core, presence server, and scrolling ticker server, enabling peer-to-peer or conference calls without user intervention, and adapting to changes in device availability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If scrolling ticker technology is integrated with IMS and presence servers to initiate communications based on subscriber availability, then user-friendliness and cost-effectiveness are improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines scrolling ticker technology with IMS and presence servers into an integrated system. The scrolling ticker server receives presence information from the presence server and uses it to trigger communication initiation, merging multiple previously separate technologies into a unified system that automatically initiates communications based on subscriber availability.
Solution Approach 2:
The integrated system performs multiple functions: it monitors presence information, generates scrolling ticker messages, initiates communications, and supports various communication types (peer-to-peer, conference calls). This multi-functional approach improves ease of operation by providing a single system that handles diverse communication scenarios.
2Productivity
If automatic communication initiation based on presence notifications is implemented, then productivity is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by continuously monitoring presence information and pre-configuring communication initiation rules. When a subscriber becomes available, the system has already prepared the communication initiation, reducing delay and improving productivity. The scrolling ticker server is ready to immediately trigger communications based on pre-established presence conditions.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by automatically detecting presence changes and initiating communications without requiring manual user intervention. The scrolling ticker server autonomously processes presence information from the presence server and triggers appropriate communication actions, improving productivity while the automated nature reduces the need for complex manual control interfaces.
3Loss of information
If scrolling ticker messages are used to notify subscribers of availability, then information delivery effectiveness is improved, but loss of time occurs due to notification delay
Solution Approach 1:
The presence server continuously monitors subscriber availability and maintains up-to-date presence information. The scrolling ticker server continuously receives and processes this information, ensuring that notifications are delivered immediately when availability changes. This continuous operation eliminates gaps in monitoring and reduces notification delay while maintaining effective information delivery.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback loops where the presence server continuously provides presence information to the scrolling ticker server, which then triggers appropriate notifications. This real-time feedback mechanism ensures that information about subscriber availability is delivered promptly, minimizing the time loss between availability change and notification.

AI summary
A system and method for initiating communications between a first wireless device and a second wireless device. The method includes the steps of detecting the status of the first wireless device, notifying the second wireless device via a scrolling ticker message based on the detecting step and establishing a communication session between the first and second wireless devices. The detecting step includes generating an alert based on a predefined event. The system for establishing a communication path between a first mobile device and a second mobile device includes an IMS core, a presence server communicatively coupled to the IMS core and in communication with the first mobile device, a scrolling ticker server in communication with the presence server and with the second mobile device, wherein the presence server communicates availability of the first mobile device and the scrolling ticker notifies the second mobile device of the availability of the first mobile device.
