Definitions
- This invention relates to telecommunication systems and, more particularly, to a method of routing a call directed to a portable directory number in a radio telecommunications network.
- Number portability allows subscribers to retain their directory numbers (DNs) as the subscribers "port” from one service provider to another.
- DN directory numbers
- MSC mobile switching center
- NPREQ Number Portability Request
- NPDB Number Portability Database
- sending the NPREQ may not be necessary, and may be a waste of time and system resources.
- the MSC should send a routing number query such as a Location Request (LOCREQ) Invoke message to the home location register (HLR) to obtain a routing number.
- LOCREQ Location Request
- HLR home location register
- the MSC may give priority to one of the two queries (LOCREQ or NPREQ), or salvage a call if the chosen query does not return a useful result.
- the present invention is a method of routing a call directed to a portable directory number in a radio telecommunications network having an originating mobile switching center (O-MSC), a home location register (HLR), and a Number Portability Database (NPDB).
- the method includes the steps of attempting to obtain a first routing number from the HLR, obtaining a second routing number from the NPDB upon receiving an error message from the HLR, and routing the call to the second routing number.
- the present invention is a method of routing a call directed to a portable directory number which includes the steps of determining in the O-MSC whether to send a first routing number request to a first destination or an alternate destination, sending the first routing number request to the first destination, and determining whether a routing number was received in the O-MSC in response to the first routing number request. This is followed by sending a second routing number request to the alternate destination upon determining that a routing number was not received in the O-MSC in response to the first routing number request, receiving a routing number in response to the second routing number request, and routing the call to the routing number received in response to the second routing number request.
- the present invention is a method of routing a call directed to a portable directory number in a radio telecommunications network which includes the steps of simultaneously sending routing number requests from the O- MSC to the HLR and the NPDB, and utilizing the first routing number received to route the call.
- the present invention is a method of routing a call directed to a portable directory number in a radio telecommunications network which begins by sending a first routing number request from the O-MSC to the HLR, the first routing number request including a dialed directory number. This is followed by determining in the HLR whether a routing number is assigned to the dialed directory number, and sending a second routing number request which includes the dialed directory number from the HLR to the NPDB upon determining that a routing number is not assigned to the dialed directory number in the HLR.
- LRN location routing number assigned to the dialed directory number
- FIG. 1 is a message flow diagram illustrating the flow of messages between the nodes of a radio telecommunications network in a first embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 2 is a flow chart of the steps of the present invention when determining the priority of routing number queries
- FIG. 3 is a message flow diagram illustrating the flow of messages between the nodes of a radio telecommunications network in a second embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG.4 is a message flow diagram illustrating the flow of messages between the nodes of a radio telecommunications network in a third embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 1 is a message flow diagram illustrating the flow of messages between the nodes of a radio telecommunications network in a first embodiment of the present invention.
- the network includes an originating MSC 11, a home location register
- the originating MSC may be a gateway mobile switching center (G-MSC) where a call enters the Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) from another network such as the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), or it may be an originating mobile switching center (O- MSC) where a call originates within the PLMN.
- G-MSC gateway mobile switching center
- PSTN Public Switched Telephone Network
- O- MSC originating mobile switching center
- the O-MSC determines whether it "owns" the dialed DN, and if so, first attempts to route the call normally by sending a Location Request Invoke message (LOCREQ) 14 to the HLR 12.
- LOCREQ Location Request Invoke message
- the DN ownership determination may be incorrect because in mobile networks, the DN ownership is actually determined in the HLR, and the information available in the MSC is incomplete since the O-MSC does not permanently retain individual subscriber records, but must query the HLR for this information. If the DN ownership determination was correct, the HLR sends a Location Request Return Result message (locreq) 15 to the O-MSC with a routing number.
- the HLR If the DN ownership determination was incorrect, the HLR returns a response indicating that no subscriber record exists. For example, the HLR may send a locreq message with an Access Denied parameter indicating that the DN is unassigned, or the HLR may return an error code of MIN/HLR mismatch.
- the O-MSC sends a Number Portability Request Invoke message (NPREQ) 16 to the
- NPDB 13 includes a digits dialed parameter (DGTSDIAL) identifying the dialed DN.
- the NPDB sends a Number Portability Request Return Result message (npreq) 17 and includes a routing digits parameter (ROUTDGTS) which includes a Location Routing Number (LRN) which may be, for example, a 10-digit routing number in the North .American Numbering Plan.
- the O-MSC then completes the call setup to the
- the O-MSC can then send a NPREQ message to the NPDB in an attempt to salvage the call. If the NPDB does not return a LRN, then error treatment is applied. Conversely, if the NPREQ message is sent first, and does not return a LRN, then the O-MSC can send a LOCREQ message to the HLR. If the HLR does not have a subscription for the DN, the call again fails.
- the present invention determines in the O-MSC which approach is more likely to result in a successful routing number query. If few numbers in a portable range have been ported, it would be inefficient to query the NPDB first. Therefore, the O-MSC first sends a LOCREQ message to the HLR in an attempt to obtain a routing number. Conversely, if most of the numbers in a portable range have been ported, it would be inefficient to query the HLR first. Therefore, the
- FIG. 2 is a flow chart of the steps of the present invention when determining the priority of routing number queries.
- the system operator may set a parameter in the O-MSC to indicate which query should take precedence. This parameter may be a switch parameter applicable to all calls originated in the O-MSC, or the parameter may be restricted to calls directed to DNs within the portable number series. If it is determined that a parameter has been set, the method moves to step 22 and sends the preferred query first.
- the method moves to step 23 and checks a default parameter establishing a preference for a particular query in the O-MSC.
- the O-MSC then sends the default query first at step 24.
- the O-MSC keeps a statistical counter of the number of queries sent and the number of error results returned by the preferred query.
- the O-MSC keeps statistics of the number of LOCREQs sent to the HLR for DNs within a particular number series.
- the O-MSC also keeps count of the number of HLR responses that indicate that the DN is unassigned. When the number of unassigned responses exceeds a threshold such as, for example 50 percent, the preference for that number series is changed to give precedence to NPREQ queries.
- the O-MSC then keeps a statistical counter of the number of queries sent and the number of error results returned by the alternate query.
- the method may also utilize a hysteresis value to prevent excessive oscillations of the preference parameter.
- a preset statistical threshold of returned error messages plus a hysteresis value For example, a hysteresis value of 5 percent may be added to the 50 percent example used above, creating a new threshold value of 55 percent. If the new error threshold is not exceeded, the method returns to step 28 .and continues to send the alternate query first. However, if the new error threshold is exceeded, the method returns to step 24 where the alternate preference is overwritten, and the method begins sending the default query first.
- FIG. 3 is a message flow diagram illustrating the flow of messages between the nodes of a radio telecommunications network in a second embodiment of the present invention.
- the O-MSC 11 simultaneously sends a LOCREQ message 14 to the HLR 12 and a NPREQ message 16 to the NPDB 13.
- the O-MSC then acts on the first response which includes a routing number. For example, if the locreq message 15 is received first, and includes an Access Denied parameter indicating that the DN is unassigned, then the O-MSC waits for the npreq message 17 with a LRN.
- the O-MSC waits for the locreq message to return a routing number. If the first response received includes a routing number, the call is routed without waiting for the second response. If both return result messages return errors, then an error has occurred, and error treatment is applied.
- FIG.4 is a message flow diagram illustrating the flow of messages between the nodes of a radio telecommunications network in a third embodiment of the present invention.
- the O-MSC first attempts to route the call normally by sending a
- the HLR is modified to send a NPREQ message 35 to the NPDB 13 when the HLR does not have a subscription for the DN identified in the DGTSDIAL parameter of the LOCREQ message, and the DN is in a portable number series.
- the NPDB then returns the LRN in a npreq message 36 sent to the HLR.
- the HLR includes the LRN in a locreq message 37 sent to the O-MSC.
- the O-MSC then completes the call setup to the LRN.
