The invention relates to a method for gender identification of a cell-phone subscriber. There are two main steps: constructing a general model of female and male calling behaviour from a set of variables obtained for each subscriber; and classifying an individual calling behaviour of a subscriber comparing it with the general model. The method includes the step of constructing the general model comprises obtaining a set of data, that may be obtained from calling detail records, that are saved at a database every time a subscriber makes or receives a phone call; computing a set of variables using a set of instances from subscribers who their gender is already known; and applying an algorithm which generates groups labelled as male or female behaviour. Finally, in the step of classifying, the gender of the subscriber is identified by assigning to the subscriber the label of the closest group.

An E-CSCF receives a Session Initiation Protocol (“SIP”) invitation message initiating an emergency communication session from a calling device. The E-CSCF generates an information request message based on the received SIP message and sends the information request message to a location server. The location server determines a geographical location of the calling device and uses the geographical location to determine a destination emergency response center, such as a Public Safety Access Point (PSAP). The location server provides location information for the destination PSAP to the E-CSCF. The E-CSCF generates a modified SIP invitation message using the presence information and sends the modified SIP invitation message to an emergency services network where it is routed to the emergency response center.

A method and system for providing a second line service (“SLS”) feature to a subscriber using a telecommunications device (“TD”) which includes receiving at a switch on the network of the subscriber's primary service provider a communication made up of a trigger and a directory number. When the communication is received at the primary service provider's switch, the switch parses the communication and detects the trigger. Once the switch has received the communication, the switch additionally transmits a query message to a SLS platform that manages the SLS feature. As a result of the switch's query message transmission, the switch receives a reply to the query message from the SLS platform. Based at least in part on the reply to the query message, the switch can route the communication such that the switch connects one or multiple voice channel circuit between the subscriber's TD and the terminating TD.

In some implementations, an internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) may receive a device identity of the user device as part of an emergency call. The IMS may transmit the device identity to an emergency call server (ECS). The IMS may receive, from the ECS, a subscriber identity of the user device. The IMS may transmit the subscriber identity to a public safety answering point (PSAP) through a next generation core services (NGCS) network that uses a Stir and Shaken protocol. The emergency call is then established with a true subscriber identity of the user device.

Communication systems and methods are described that include call notification with rich caller identification. Components of the communication systems are configured to receive a call for a user via an enterprise voice channel. A call request is automatically generated in response to event data of the received call. The call request includes caller data from enterprise databases or directories. The caller data provides identifying information of the caller to the user via the call request. The call request can include response options by which the user can participate in the call. The call request is routed to a target device of the user via a data channel of the host enterprise. The target device provides the user with multiple action or response options via the call request. The response options include for example accepting the call, delaying the call, forwarding the call, ignoring the call, and ignoring the caller.

NETWORK NODE, METHOD, AND MOBILE TERMINAL FOR PROVIDING VOICE CALLS TO A MOBILE TERMINAL IN A PACKET-SWITCHED-ONLY NETWORK

Номер: US20170127380A1
Автор: Sander Ann-Christine
Принадлежит:

A network node, method, and mobile terminal for providing circuit-switched (CS) voice calls to a mobile terminal operating in a packet-switched (PS)-only network. A control node such as an EPC node in an SAE/LTE PS-only network is modified to mimic the messaging functionality of a Serving GPRS Service Node (SGSN). The EPC node is connected to an MSC/VLR in a CS network through a Gs interface. The EPC node registers the terminal with the MSC/VLR and provides a VLR TMSI to the terminal. When the MSC/VLR receives an incoming CS voice call for the terminal, the MSC/VLR notifies the EPC node, which sends a paging message to the terminal. To set up the CS voice call, the terminal sends a paging response directly to the MSC/VLR. 1. A method in a mobile terminal of receiving a circuit-switched (CS) voice call when the mobile terminal is operating in a packet-switched-only wireless telecommunication network , said method comprising:receiving a paging request message from the packet-switched-only network;determining whether the paging request message is an invitation to participate in a data session in the packet-switched-only network, or is an invitation to accept an incoming CS voice call through a Mobile Switching Center/Visitor Location Register (MSC/VLR);upon determining that the paging request message is an invitation to participate in a data session in the packet-switched-only network, utilizing a packet-switched communication protocol stack in the mobile terminal to transmit a response to a control node in the packet-switched-only network; andupon determining that the paging request message is an invitation to accept an incoming CS voice call, utilizing a circuit-switched communication protocol stack in the mobile terminal to transmit a response directly to the MSC/VLR.2.
