Definitions
- the invention relates generally to telecommunications systems and methods for informing requesting nodes that a terminal has become available, and more particularly, to a system and method for coordinating terminal availability notifications.
- GSM Global System for Mobile Communications
- PLMN Public Land Mobile Network
- wireless network 10 which in turn is composed of aplurality of areas 12, each with a Mobile Services Switching Center (MSC) 14 and an integrated Visitor Location Register (VLR) 16 therein.
- Each Location Area 12 is divided into a number of cells 22.
- Mobile Station (MS) 20 is the physical equipment, e.g., a car phone or other portable phone, used by mobile subscribers to communicate with the wireless network 10, each other, and users outside the subscribed network, both wireline and wireless.
- the MSC 14 is in communication with at least one Base Station Controller (BSC) 23, which, in turn, is in contact with at least one Base Transceiver Station (BTS) 24.
- BSC Base Station Controller
- BTS Base Transceiver Station
- the BTS 24 is the physical equipment, illustrated for simplicity as a radio tower, that provides radio coverage to the geographical part of the cell 22 for which it is responsible.
- BSC 23 may be connected to several BTSs 24, and may be implemented as a stand-alone node or integrated with the MSC 14. In either event, the BSC 23 and BTS 24 components, as a whole, are generally referred to as a Base Station System (BSS) 25.
- BSS Base Station System
- the BSC 23 functionality can be included within the MSC 14, instead of being implemented as a separate node as shown in FIGURE 1.
- the PLMN Service Area or wireless network 10 includes a Home Location Register (HLR) 26, which is a database maintaining all subscriber information, e ⁇ g,, user profiles, current location information, International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) numbers, and other administrative information.
- HLR Home Location Register
- the HLR 26 may be co-located with a given MSC 14, integrated with the MSC 14, or alternatively can service multiple MSCs 14, the latter of which is illustrated in FIGURE 1.
- the VLR 16 is a database containing information about all of the Mobile Stations 20 currently located within the MSC/VLR area 12. If an MS 20 roams into a new MSC/VLR area 12, the VLR 16 connected to that MSC 14 will request data about that MS 20 from its home HLR database 26 (simultaneously informing the HLR 26 about the current location of the MS 20). Accordingly, if the user of the MS 20 then wants to make a call, the local VLR 16 will have the requisite identification information without having to reinterrogate the home HLR 26. In the aforedescribed manner, the VLR and HLR databases 16 and 26, respectively, contain various subscriber information associated with a given MS 20.
- the MS 20 may not respond to attempts to contact it for a variety of reasons, including being powered off, being in radio shadow, congestion, etc. If the MS 20 cannot be reached, the party or application trying to contact the MS 20 normally has to retry contacting the MS 20 after a period of time.
- An alternative to this is for the party or application to request the network 10 to notify it of when the MS 20 is known to be available, for example, at power on, location registration, or contact by another party. This request is normally made to a control point (not shown) in the network 10 which stores data indicating the address of the party or application who requires notification.
- SMS-C Short Message Service Center
- an object of the present invention to provide a system and method for coordinating terminal availability notifications for a variety of requesting nodes and applications.
- the present invention is directed to telecommunications systems and methods for coordinating requests by nodes and applications for notification about when a mobile terminal becomes available, in order to allow each requesting node and application to contact the mobile terminal in a logical order without burdening the system with numerous simultaneous contact attempts by the various requesting nodes and applications.
- a control node such as a Home Location Register (HLR) or a Service Control Point (SCP) within an Intelligent Network (IN)
- HLR Home Location Register
- SCP Service Control Point
- I Intelligent Network
- FIGURE 1 is a block diagram of a conventional wireless telecommunications system
- FIGURE 2 is a block diagram illustrating the coordination of notification requests received by a control node in accordance with preferred embodiments of the present invention
- FIGURE 3 shows steps in a sample process of coordinating notification requests in accordance with preferred embodiments of the present invention
- FIGURE 4 illustrates a sample situation in which a control node must process and coordinate notification requests by several requesting nodes within a cellular network in accordance with the teachings of the present invention
- FIGURE 5 describes the steps involved in the sample situation illustrated in FIGURE 4.
- a node or application 210 such as a voice mail system, an end office or mobile switching center attempting call completion to the MS 200, an e-mail delivery system, or an SMS-C, can send a request 218 to a control node 220 responsible for handling MS 200 availability notifications (step 310).
- the control node 220 can preferably be an HLR 220 serving the MS 200 and connected to the MSC 240, but in alternative embodiments, the control node 220 can also be an SCP (not shown) within the IN, the former being illustrated.
- the application 210 sending the request for notification 218 can also supply apriority 215 associated with that application 210 to the HLR 220 (step 310) to enable the HLR 220 to process the requests 218 more efficiently and effectively.
- the voice mail system can have priority one, while the SMS-C can have priority two.
- the HLR 220 can assign a priority 215, e.g., the lowest priority, to the requesting application 210.
- the HLR 220 can calculate the priority 215 based upon the supplied address of the application 210.
- the HLR 220 then places the request 218 in a queue or list 225 for the subscriber associated with the MS 200 (step 320).
- the HLR 220 detects MS 200 activity (step 330)
- the HLR 220 begins to process the notification queue 225 for the associated MS 200 (step 350). For example, when the MS 200 powers up or sends a location update request to the HLR 220, or if the control node is an SCP and the SCP receives notification that a contact attempt by another party has been successful and has been completed, the HLR 220 or SCP, respectively, notifies the requesting nodes or applications 210 that the MS 200 has become available.
- the HLR 220 begins processing the requests 218 (step 350) by scanning the list 225 for the notification request 218 which has highest priority 215 (step 340), e.g.. priority one. If more than one notification request 218 has priority one (step 340), the HLR 220 can preferably process the requests 218 (step 350) according to the time the request 218 was received by the HLR 220, with the first received request 218 with priority one being handled first. Alternatively, the HLR 220 can process the first priority one request 218 that it scans regardless of which priority one request 218 was actually received first. The HLR 220 then notifies each requesting application 210 in order of priority 215 that the MS 200 has become available (step 360).
- Each priority 215 has a timer 230 associated therewith in accordance with the time it takes to process that type of communications function.
- the HLR 220 sets the timer 230 (step 370) and waits for the designated period of the timer 230 (step 380) before handling the next notification request 218 (step 340).
- the HLR 220 scans for a notification request 218 of the same priority 215 (step 340), and if found, the request 218 is handled in the same manner (steps 350-380). If no request 218 at the same priority 215 is found (step 340), the next priority (not shown) will be handled
- a new timer (not shown) associated with this priority can then be utilized. It should be understood that alternatively the time period for the timers 230 associated with each priority 215 can remain the same.
- timers 230 on a priority level 215 basis allows requests 218 by different types of applications 210 to be handled in an orderly and sequential manner.
- Priority handling also allows important applications 210, such as those involving requests 218 from people rather than machines, to be handled first.
- FIGURES 4 and 5 illustrate a sample situation in which several nodes, __g_, a Voice Mail System (VMS) 400, an SMS-C 410 and an SCP 420, require notification of when the MS 440 becomes available.
- the SMS-C 410 has a message to be delivered
- the VMS 400 has a voice mail stored for the MS 440
- the SCP 420 has a request from a caller to connect to the MS 440 when the MS 440 becomes available.
- each of these applications 400, 410 and 420 has failed in a previous attempt to contact the MS 440 via the MSC 450 due to the MS 440 being powered off (step 500).
- the SCP 420 has contacted the HLR 430 and requested a notification to take place with priority one (step 505).
- the SMS-C 410 has contacted the HLR 430 and requested a notification with priority two (step 510), and the VMS 400 has a priority three request stored within the queue 435 in the HLR 430 (step 515).
- the HLR 430 scans the list of notification requests 435 for the subscriber trying to detect a priority one notification (step 525). It should be noted that an initial timer may be incorporated before this scan takes place allowing call-back services from emergency service to take place prior to notifying other requesting applications. After scanning through the list of notification requests 435 (step 525), the HLR then detects the priority one notification request (step 530) and contacts the SCP 420 associated with this request (step 535).
- the HLR 430 then starts the timer 432 associated with priority one (step 540), e.g., the HLR 430 waits for a period of 5 minutes before scanning the list 435 again, and during this time, the SCP 420 proceeds to set up the call-back call towards the MS 440 (step 545).
- the HLR 430 scans the list 435 for more notification requests of priority one (step 555). It should be understood that any detection of subscriber activity while the priority one timer 432 is set is ignored, e *., the ending of the call-back call does not initiate rescanning of the queue 435. This is due to the fact that the source of such a call cannot be guaranteed to be the call-back call. In this case, no more priority one requests are found in the queue 435 (step 555), and the HLR 430 then proceeds to scan the queue 435 for priority two requests (step 560).
- the HLR 430 detects the request from the SMS-C 410 (step 565) and notifies the SMS-C 410 (step 570), while initiating a timer 434 of 1 minute (step 575).
- the SMS-C 410 then proceeds to deliver the short message to the MS 440 (step 580).
- time-out of the 1 minute priority two timer 434 step 585
- further scanning of the notification request queue 435 takes place (step 590) and the VMS 400 notification request is finally processed using the priority three timer 436 (step 595).
- the VMS 400 can then contact the MS 440 and deliver the voice mail notification to the MS 440 (step 598).
- a more efficient and effective service can be provided to both the operator and the subscriber.
- a central control node to control the notification and initiation of services, a coordinated approach for handling messages and alerts in an orderly and sequential manner can be achieved.
- the system and method disclosed herein can be implemented within a cellular network or any other type of network, such as a fixed Public Switched Telephone Network, in which the SCP or a Service Switching Point (SSP) would serve as the control node, and the SCP or SSP would be notified when the subscriber becomes available.
- SSP Service Switching Point
- a subscriber may be unavailable, for example, when the subscriber's line is busy or when the subscriber has the phone off-hook.
