    摘要: An interactive voice response system (102) includes a protocol interface (134) that is adapted to communicate with a plurality of divergent telecommunications networks for voice communications (104, 106, 108, 110). These networks are, for example, a wireline telecommunications network, a CDMA network, a GSM network, and a voice over IP network. A controller (136) is coupled to the protocol interface to receive a plurality of common call control messages from, and to supply a plurality of common call control messages to, the protocol interface. The protocol interface converts control messages from each one of the plurality of divergent telecommunications networks into the plurality of common call control messages for the controller. The controller generates and receives the common call control messages to cause a prompt and collect interaction with a caller that is using a device that is coupled to one of the networks. The common call control messages generated by the controller are converted by the protocol interface into control messages that are appropriate for the particular network that is to receive the control message. That is, the common call control messages are converted to the network's protocol.

    摘要: Converged charging systems and methods are described. A converged charging system includes an offline charging system, an online charging system, a common rating function, and a common charging gateway function. When in operation, the online charging system receives online charging information for a first call and accesses the common rating function to determine a rating for the first call. The online charging system then transmits a rated charging data record (CDR) for the first call to the common charging gateway function. The offline charging system receives offline charging information for a second call, and accesses the common rating function to determine a rating for the second call. The offline charging system transmits a rated CDR for the second call to the common charging gateway function. The common charging gateway function buffers the rated CDRs for both online and offline calls, and then transmits the rated CDRs to a billing system.

    摘要: IMS gateway systems and methods are disclosed for providing mid-session status checking in an IMS network. An IMS gateway system described herein includes a budget control system and a status checking system. When a session has been established in the IMS network, the budget control system performs budget control for the session. Concurrently, the status checking system periodically checks the status of the session. Responsive to the status checking system determining that the session is active, the budget control system continues to perform the budget control for the session. Responsive to the status checking system determining that the session has terminated, the budget control system terminates the budget control for the session. By periodically checking the status of the session, the IMS gateway system advantageously avoids a runaway changing scenario in the IMS network.
