    摘要: Routing calls using a new protocol message which is a redirect message in a telecommunication system having a number of switching nodes to avoid circular paths among the switching nodes and for rerouting calls in the event of failures or overload conditions. During the establishment of a call from an originating switching node to a destination switching node where the call path has already been setup from the originating switching node through an intermediate switching node, a switching node is responsive to a setup message from the intermediate switching node requesting extension of the call path through the switching node to determine if such an extension would create a circular path. If circular path would be created, the switching node redirects the call (by using the redirect message) back to the intermediate switching node and indicates in that message to which switching node the call path should be extended. In response to the redirect message, the intermediate switching node reroutes the call path. Further, the redirect message entirely removes the call path between the switching node and intermediate switching node.

    摘要: Allowing a shared line appearance feature to be implemented on a plurality of telephone station sets which are connected to different telecommunication switching systems. The telecommunication switching systems can be interconnected to each other via the public telephone network utilizing standard telecommunication links. A software application program provides a termination point for a directory number that is associated with a shared line appearance. The software application program receives all incoming calls directed to the directory number and determines the operations that should be performed with respect to the telephone station sets terminating the shared line appearance. The software application program directs the incoming calls to the telephone stations sets regardless to which telecommunication system each of the telephone station sets is interconnected. An outgoing call from one of the telephone station sets is switched to the software application program which then switches the outgoing call to the destination telephone terminal as if the outgoing call had originated at the location of the software application program. With respect to the outgoing call, the software application program also transmits messages to the other telephone station sets terminating the shared line appearance, so that those telephone station sets can indicate that the shared line appearance is busy.

    摘要: Creating the capability of a meet-me-conference call on a telephone terminal by actuation of a meet-me-conference button on the telephone terminal. The meet-me-conference button is actuated for a particular line appearance, and the meet-me-conference is then established by other telephone terminals calling the telephone number associated with that line appearance. The user of the telephone terminal can join the conference at a later point in time by going off-hook (call originator). As other parties call that line appearance, the telephone terminal adds them to the conference. As parties join the conference, their names are displayed on the telephone terminal, and a second button on the telephone terminal can be utilized to drop parties as they are added to the conference. A second actuation of the meet-me-conference button prevents further callers to the line appearance from being added to the conference which is also referred to as deactivation of the meet-me-conference.

    摘要: A wireless handset does not perform a re-registration operation when its serving base station is at capacity, and a wireless controller controlling a wireless switching system is allowed to send incoming calls for the wireless handset to the base station even if the base station is at capacity. The base station signals a new call to the wireless even if the base station is at its active call capacity. The wireless handset is responsive to the incoming call to perform a base station re-direct operation to a new base station that has idle call capacity, and the call setup is completed to the wireless handset via the new base station. The base station re-direct operation is a new wireless operation. The base station re-direct operation is controlled by the system wireless controller in a second embodiment.

    摘要: In a telecommunication switching system having a plurality of switch nodes with each of the switch nodes responsive to a failure of a communication link within a group of communication links to establish a flexible rate interface (FRI) link upon there being no spare channels within the group of communication links and to switch active calls from the channels of the failed communication link to the channels of the newly established FRI link. Advantageously, the group of communication links can be a non-facility access service (NFAS) group. Advantageously, this allows for additional B channels to be added to the NFAS group even though there are no remaining physical communication links between the two switch nodes being interconnected by the NFAS group. The establishment of the FRI link allows for the addition of B channels to the NFAS group with these B channels being routed through other switch nodes of the communication switching system. The FRI link becomes part of the NFAS group and control is provided for the B channels of the FRI link by the primary D channel of the NFAS group. Advantageously, the FRI link can be set up through other communication facilities other than the communication switching system. For example, if the two switch nodes interconnected by the NFAS group are both connected to the public telephone network, the FRI link can be set up through the public telephone network.

    摘要: Providing capability for increasing, decreasing, or changing types of bandwidth associated with a telecommunication call during the call and through out the call path. New messages can allocate or deallocate bandwidth associated with the call at each intervening switching node through out the call path. All switching nodes of a switching system involved with the resulting call consider the call as a single call. The new messages allow adding video capability to a voice call and, at a still later point in time, removing the video capability from the call. The result is convenience to telecommunication users in that the user is able to utilize any type or amount of bandwidth during a multimedia call. Yet, at any given point in time, the user pays only for the bandwidth that is being utilized.

    摘要: Telephone terminals provide an initiate conference feature. In response to actuation of a button, as each telephone terminal is dialed, a logical link is set up between an initiating telephone terminal and the dialed telephone terminal. Once all the terminals of the conference call are communicating with the initiating telephone terminal via logical links, the initiating telephone terminal waits until all of the other terminals are idle and then sets up a conference call that has the appropriate bandwidth for the type of conference call requested. Once a logical link has been set up to a telephone terminal, that telephone terminal lights the indicator associated with the initiate conference feature. A telephone terminal whose initiate conference indicator is lit can remove itself from the proposed conference by its own initiate conference button being actuated. Further, if two telephone terminals are engaged in a telephone call and a third telephone terminal is to be added to the call, the user of a first telephone terminal actuates the initiate conference button and dials the third telephone terminal. Once a logical link has been established to this third party, the user of the first telephone terminal rejoins the user of the second telephone terminal in the original telephone call. When the first telephone terminal detects that the third telephone terminal is idle via the logical link, a conference call is established between the three telephone terminals.

    摘要: A telecommunication protocol message that allows redirection of a call received by a first telephone station set to a second telephone station set or other terminal equipment by the first telephone station set transmitting the redirect message to a telecommunication system connected to the first telephone station set. The redirect message includes the identification of the user of the first telephone station set as well as the telephone number of the second telephone station set or terminal equipment. The telecommunication switching system is responsive to the redirect message to reroute a call to the second telephone set. The redirect message allows the first station set to transmit only one message to the telecommunication switching system to accomplish the functions of rerouting the call. In addition, the redirect message gives a BRI (basic rate interface) station set the capability of automatically forwarding certain types of calls. Since a call setup message includes the telephone number of the originating station set, the BRI station set can be programmed to transfer calls to different station sets based on the originating station number. In addition, with the proliferation of facsimile machines (often referred to as FAXs), there is a problem in coordinating an individual's telephone number with the individual's FAX number by a person wishing to send a FAX. Using the redirect message, the BRI station set can be programmed to examine the bearer capability information encoded as an Information Element, IE, in the setup message to determine the type of call that is being set up. If a digital data call is being set up, the BRI station set then examines the higher layer capability IE in the setup message to determine whether or not it is a FAX message. If it is a FAX message, the BRI station set will automatically forward the call to the FAX designated by the user of the BRI station set. Further, the station set will display a message indicating that a FAX message had been forwarded. Using this technique it is only necessary to know a person's telephone number in order to send a FAX to that person.

    摘要: A telecommunication switching system having switching nodes that perform adaptive routing by utilizing the fact that the switching nodes are arranged in a first and a second hierarchy. In addition, each switching node maintains routing information based on telephone and switching node numbers which identify the switching nodes. A destination switching node transfers its routing information back to an originating switching node which combines that routing information with its own in order to determine shorter call paths for subsequent call routing. The first hierarchy is a dialing plan hierarchy having groups of switching nodes at each dialing plan level. The second hierarchy is a switching node hierarchy based on the switching node number of each switching node with at least one switching node of the switching node hierarchy being at a different level in the dialing plan hierarchy. In order to route a call, a switching node first routes through levels of switching nodes in the dialing plan hierarchy until a second switching node is encountered which can determine the identification of the destination switching node based on a dialed telephone number. The second switching node then routes the call through the node hierarchy using the identified node number until a path is determined to the destination switching node.
