    摘要: The present invention relates to an arrangement, a network and methods for identifying the relevant SDP for a question from an SCP in a telecommunication network with a large amount of subscribers and handling and administration of a large amount of subscribers by introducing a function for intelligent routing. The intelligent routing between SCP and SDP can be handled by a node standing by itself in the network or as a part-function in an already existing node, for example an SCP. When a new subscriber shall be stored in an SDP subscriber data is transferred from the service administration to a master IRF (Intelligent Routing Function). The IRF comprises a function for determining which SDP that shall store the subscriber data and the IRF thereafter transfer the subscriber data to the SDP. The IRF also stores this information. The information is also transferred to the other IRFs. When an SCP gets a call from an SSP, the SCP contacts an IRF which contacts an SDP.

    摘要: Instead of requiring a customer to carry around one or more prepaid telephone calling cards (such cards are effectively functioning as limited, fixed amounts of money), a communications network-based solution is provided that facilitates both prepayment and use of prepay telecommunications services. A subscriber is assigned a record in a network database. The database record includes an account number and an associated prepaid monetary value. Then when the subscriber calls from a prepaid telecommunications terminal (e.g., a public telephone), requesting a telecommunications service (e.g., a long distance telephone call), the communications network processes the request by analyzing the subscriber database record. If the prepaid monetary value in the subscriber's record is sufficient for the requested service, the service is authorized. The prepaid monetary value in the subscriber's record is decreased in accordance with the service rendered. Accordingly, a subscriber does not need to purchase any prepaid calling card, remember to carry the prepaid calling card, or remember the amount stored on the calling card. Rather, prepaid calling services are obtained simply by subscribing to the network prepayment service. The subscriber also easily adds monetary value to the subscriber's prepaid account by accessing the prepaid network service, (e.g., by dialing the appropriate network service number), indicating the desire to add monetary value to the subscriber's prepaid account in the database. The subscriber is prompted to enter a desired amount of money which is then added to the prepaid monetary value field in the subscriber's database record. There is no need to travel to a card distribution center or the like to obtain a new or recharged prepaid calling card.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method of providing a subscriber-specific service by an intelligent network. In the method, a service logic program is stored in a database (BD1, DB2) of the intelligent network and a subscriber-specific service is provided by starting said service logic program in response to a predefined trigger condition. In order that subscriber-specific services could be implemented economically on a really large scale, (a) the service logic program is implemented as a service logic program (400) common to a plurality of subscribers, (b) subscriber-specific information relating to the service is stored, for each subscriber, separately from said service logic program, and (c) in the service logic program there are defined points from which the program reads, during the execution, subscriber-specific information on an individual subscriber, whereby the execution of the common service logic program with the read subscriber-specific information provides said subscriber-specific service.

    摘要: Advanced Intelligent Network (AIN) platforms include data bases populated with information pertaining to all phone numbers within a communications network. A large number of telephone numbers may concurrently be prespecified in a data base by a subscriber, together with alternate telephone number destinations corresponding to different locations, for redirection. Redirection set up for all of the subscriber's lines is accomplished by a single data entry operation into the data base in accordance with a template or table of designations customized by the subscriber. Redirection information may be transmitted to the AIN data base via a telecommunication line and an adjunct processing device associated with the AIN data base, using a terminal interface or dialed digit inputs; or the redirection information may be entered by interaction with a network switching office which sends the information to the data base via the network's signalling channels. Such information may specifically identify a portion, if not all, of the subscriber's lines. Each specified line may be associated with one or more redirected destinations.
