    摘要: Systems and methods are provided to facilitate the performance of a Session Border Controller (SBC)-localized handoff. As part of the SBC-localized handoff, a communication device may transmit packets within a data call to an SBC via a first IP address. Subsequently, the communication device may be assigned a second IP address. The communication device may then transmit further packets to the SBC via the second IP address. In response, the SBC may route all traffic within the data call direct to the communication device via the second IP address, regardless of whether the traffic indicates that the traffic should be delivered to the first IP address.

    摘要: To maximize efficiencies and to reduce termination costs of inter-carrier exchanges, an auto-dialer detection system enables an inter-carrier network switch to detect, in real-time or in near real-time, calls that are originated by auto-dialers. A call router of the switch may receive an incoming call attempt that includes a particular Automatic Number Identification (ANI). The auto-dialer detection system allows for a real-time or near-real time determination, based on the ANI and contents of a cache during a sliding window of time coincident with the reception of the origination, whether or not the call should be routed through the switch. Further, the auto-dialer detection system provides a real-time or a near real-time update to the cache contents to enable further real-time or near-real time detection and blocking of auto-dialed calls. Overrides to the cache (e.g., to always allow and/or to always block calls that include certain ANIs) may be provided.

    摘要: An ingress call filter system enables real-time or near real-time efficiencies of an inter-carrier switch. The ingress call filter determines if a received call to a called party is likely to fail. If the call is likely to fail, the ingress call filter returns an indication that the call should be filtered or rejected. If the call in not likely to fail, the ingress call filter returns an indication that a call router should attempt to establish the call. Such techniques mitigate penalties assessed to the inter-carrier network for incomplete or failed calls in real time or near real time.

    摘要: Techniques for originating an emergency call over a data network include determining whether or not a location services are currently available. Call control may be released to the native dialer when the location services are currently unavailable. Otherwise, the call may be processed by the application dialer, and may be routed from the mobile device towards a Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) by using a private packet backbone network exchange. The application dialer may be configured to utilize a packet header format that indicates a geographic location of the mobile device when communicating with an emergency call router interconnected with the private packet backbone network exchange.

    摘要: Techniques for passing, releasing, and/or transferring control of a call origination from an application dialer to a native dialer of a mobile communication device include determining whether or not a destination telephone number indicated at a user interface of the device is included in a set of predetermined numbers, which may include a set of service numbers for, e.g., emergency services, directory assistance, community services and information, etc., and/or which may include other predetermined numbers. Call control may be released to the native dialer when the indicated, destination telephone number is included in the set. Otherwise, the call may be processed by the application dialer, and may be routed from the mobile device towards the destination telephone number by using a private packet backbone network exchange. The application dialer may be a default dialer, and a user of the device may be unaware of the native dialer.

    摘要: A vendor evaluator system enables real-time or near real-time efficiencies of an inter-carrier switch. At a nominal periodic rate (e.g., every fifteen minutes or less), the vendor evaluator system updates a performance map of vendor exchanges to which calls may be routed from the switch. Specifically, in real-time or in near real-time, an updated performance score is generated for each vendor exchange and/or for each NPA-NXX code that is connected to the switch based on a weighted average of post dial delay, average call hold time, and attempt-seizure ratio. The score is compared against performance thresholds to determine whether or not the respective exchange and/or code should be included in a pool of acceptably-performing, candidate vendor exchanges from which a particular exchange is selected to service a call. Such techniques prevent poorly performing vendors from servicing calls routed by the inter-carrier network switch in real time or near real-time.

    摘要: Systems and methods for mitigating phantom call traffic in a communication system are disclosed. A call may be received at a communications exchange. A jurisdiction of the call may be determined in real-time, and egress signaling information and a route of the call to a terminating local exchange may be determined based on the jurisdiction. At least a portion of the egress signaling information may be provided to the terminating exchange in call signaling and/or in call detail billing records so that the terminating exchange is enabled to correctly charge for call termination.
