Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and a device for establishing a fee-based telecommunications connection between a caller and a called party via at least one telecommunications network, the
- Called under several telephone numbers stored on the side of the telecommunications network may be reachable.
- charging a charge calculation
- the billing is usually signaled by a
- Signal triggering charge calculation started, this signal usually from the element in the telecommunication network that successively dials the stored telephone numbers of a called party until a successful telecommunication connection is established to a charge-calculating element in the telecommunication network.
- the caller is preferably charged, in particular fully charged, since the caller has control over who he wants to call.
- a voice connection can already be regarded as a successful establishment of a telecommunication connection to one of the successively dialed stored telephone numbers of a called party, e.g. when the called party picks up the telephone handset, presses a key on the telephone that triggers the voice connection, or otherwise makes an entry on his telephone terminal that represents his acceptance of the telephone call.
- Figure 1 shows Figure 1 as a block diagram of the connection of a caller
- FIG. 2 shows an illustrative flow chart relating to the fee calculation according to the invention
- Figure 1 shows a caller 1 who would like to reach a called party 2 via a fixed network 3 and a mobile telecommunications network 4.
- the called party 2 has several telephone numbers 0172 /. (5), 021 1 / (6), 02102 / (7) and 0172/50 (8), under which he may be reachable. It is known that the called party can be reached on at least one of the telephone numbers with the reference numbers 5 to 8 can, but not under which he is currently available
- the caller 1 calls a telephone number of the called party 2, which (e.g. due to their area code) can be a special umversal number (i.e.
- the telephone number that the caller 1 calls to trigger the successive dialing of the telephone numbers 5 to 8 or 6 to 8 of the called party 2 can be, for example, a mobile phone number 0172 / .. (5) of the called party 2 be, after the unsuccessful dialing the other stored telephone numbers 6 to 8 of the called party 2 are called In
- various other aspects can be realized, such as, for example, the storage of the last successfully called telephone number 5 to 8 of the called party 2 (and the first dialing of the next call to the called party 2), an active call acceptance (a telecommunication connection to one of the successively dialed ones) Numbers 5 to 8 of the called party 2 are only regarded as successful if the called party makes a predefined entry on his terminal, while otherwise not dialed telephone numbers of the called party 2 are successively dialed)
- the device in a telecommunications network 4 for telecommunications subscribers 1, 2, etc. stored under what phone numbers
- a telephone number dialing device 11 is provided in a telecommunication network 4, which accesses the stored telephone numbers of a called telecommunication subscriber 2 and these ( 5 to 8) successively until successfully establishes a telecommunication connection under one of the called telephone numbers 5 to 8 of the called party 2.
- a comparison device 12 can be provided, which, if a call is only considered to have been successfully set up on his terminal when a certain acoustic input, key input etc.
- the input of the called party with one in the telecommunications network 4 compares the stored input and only connects a connection from the caller 1 to the called party 2 in the case of a correct entry, while otherwise the other of the stored telephone numbers (5 to 8) are successively dialed.
- the device in the telecommunications network 4 there is also a control device
- FIG. 2 shows a process for charging a call according to the invention.
- the caller 1 calls a universal number (for example 5) of the called party 2.
- the stored telephone numbers of the called party 2 are then called successively by the telecommunications network.
- the first dialing (reference number 13) of one of the telephone numbers (for example 5) of the called party 2 is unsuccessful because, for example, the called party does not answer or does not actively answer.
- the second dial 14 of one of the telephone numbers (for example with the reference number 6 in FIG. 1) of the called party is also unsuccessful.
- the third dial 15 of one of the telephone numbers of the called party for example 02102 with the reference number 7 in FIG. 1) of the called party 2 is successful.
- The. Talk time 18 between the start of the charge calculation at time 16 and the end of the call at time 17 is the time for which charges are actually calculated.
- the start of the fee calculation according to the invention at time 16 is signaled by a (usual) fee calculation signal, for example from the unit 11, which successively dials the possible telephone numbers 5 to 8 of the called party 2 to a unit 18 in the telecommunications network 4 and / or 3, which, based on the caller 1, calculates and saves the charges.
- a (usual) fee calculation signal for example from the unit 11, which successively dials the possible telephone numbers 5 to 8 of the called party 2 to a unit 18 in the telecommunications network 4 and / or 3, which, based on the caller 1, calculates and saves the charges.
- this can be implemented, for example, in such a way that the signaling which triggers the start of the charge calculation is sent to one of the MSCs via which the call from caller 1 to called party 2 runs, in which the call charges are calculated based on the telephone number of caller 1 and are stored, being in the HLR of the caller 1 to his telephone number or
