摘要:
A method and system is provided for managing a scenario wherein a first telecommunication session between a first telecommunication device and a second telecommunication device is interrupted to establish a telecommunication session between the first telecommunication device and a third telecommunication device. The method includes, receiving a request to establish the telecommunication session between the third and first telecommunication devices (104). Thereafter, the first telecommunication session is put on hold (106). Further, telecommunication session between the first and third telecommunication devices is established (108). Subsequently, a signal may be received from the second telecommunication device to send a reminder to the first telecommunication device (110) to indicate that the first telecommunication session is on hold, wherein the signal is generated in response to operating the second telecommunication device. Consequently, a reminder is sent to the first telecommunication device (116).

A system and method for recording telephone conversations which have been placed on hold is provided. After a telephone conversation has been placed on hold, assuming that the conversation was being recorded, the call is designated to be in the background. Once a processor senses that a background call exists, a check is performed to determine if there is a downlink connection for this call. If there is, a new communication channel is opened so that the background call can be recorded and then appended to the original recording.

The disclosure is directed to a mobile communication device that is capable of accessing different types of networks such as a circuit-switched network and a packet-switched network. When supplementary services are invoked involving the device, a protocol is used that signals between the device and a central server that maintains the state information for the supplementary services. In this way, hand-over between the two different types of networks may occur without interrupting supplementary services.

If a communication client disconnects from a call, an interworking service node may receive from the communication client a disconnect message indicative of an attempt to disconnect the call and send a forced hold message to place the call on forced hold in response to receiving the disconnect message. A portion of the call extending toward a public service access point and through the PSTN is placed on hold. When an operator wants to reestablish the call to the communication client, the interworking service node will receive over the PSTN a reconnect request message to reestablish the call with the communication client. The reconnect request message may be an integrated services user part message. In response to the reconnect message, the interworking service node will generate and send a session initiation message, which is configured to reestablish the call toward the communication client.

The present invention relates to an apparatus (10) for handling telephone calls which comprises: means for configuring the operation of the apparatus based on user preferences relating to the handling of calls from particular callers, means for storing the user preferences, means for processing incoming calls based on the user preferences, and means for receiving updates to the user preferences in dependence on changes to a preference database for storing the preferences of at least one user. The invention also relates to a telecommunications system, and to an associated server.
摘要:
A method for reducing costs associated with communicating with a server system in a computer network including a plurality of servers logically connected to one another and to a plurality of client systems, wherein at least some of the client systems are comprised of a conventional television monitor and an electronic unit for interacting with the computer network, and wherein a client system can communicate with a server system via any one of a plurality of communication links, the method comprising steps for:
identifying a second communication link available to the client system for communicating with the server system having a second data transfer rate associated with use of the second communication link, wherein the first data transfer rate is faster than the second data transfer rate; determining whether a prime usage time period applies to the first communication link; if a prime usage time period applies to the first communication link and a communication request is not within the prime useage time period, preferring the first communication link for transmitting data between the client system and the server system, and other wise, preferring the second communication link for transmitting data between the client system and the server system; and communicating with the server system via the preferred communication link.

A system and method for call control wherein a call received at a communication device may be controlled through an IP device connected to an IP network over which at least a portion of the call was routed. The IP device is connected to the IP network via a control gateway. Using the SIP protocol, applications such as remote voice mail screening, call transfer to another phone prior to picking up the destination phone, midcall transfer to another phone, call logging, adding the call to an audio conference, putting the caller on hold, remote call hangup, ringing multiple phones on the incoming call, a screen popup on a PC that tells who is calling, providing information about the caller (address, phone number, picture, etc.), managing multiple devices and telephone numbers, controlling one button dialing from a nearby phone, voice dialing control, and midcall transfers can be controlled.
