Abstract: An Internet protocol (IP) telephony system terminates calls to certain groups of telephone numbers via multiple different telephony carriers. The IP telephony system will discontinue using a telephony carrier to terminate calls if the quality provided by the carrier falls below a threshold level. The IP telephony system includes a quality monitoring unit that determines when a particular group of telephone numbers are intrinsically impaired, such that no carrier could provide high quality when terminating calls to those numbers. In these circumstances, the IP telephony system adjusts the quality threshold to which a carrier's quality is compared when completing calls to the impaired numbers to account for the intrinsic impairment of the telephone numbers.

Abstract: Call detail records (CDRs) that are generated by different elements of an IP telephony system in connection with the same communication can be matched to one another using timing information contained in the CDRs. Other information in addition to timing information, and which is present in two CDRs relating to the same communication may be used in conjunction with timing information to match CDRs from the same communication. Also, information relating to the type of flow path that a communication follows through the elements of an IP telephony system may also be recorded in a final CDR that is created for each communication.

Abstract: The present technology is directed to systems and methods for integrating route and rank information into call detail records. The system receives information relating to a communication that is established between a first communication device and a second communication device. The information includes routing information for the established communication that includes at least a route identifier and a rank identifier. The system records the received route identifier and the rank identifier in a call detail record that is generated for the established communication. The route and rank information may be analyzed to for various purposes including troubleshooting and quality improvement.

Abstract: A system for establishing Internet protocol based telephony communications between a calling telephony device and a called telephony device includes multiple logical elements that help to setup and carry the telephony communication. Multiple ones of the logical elements create call detail records that contain data about the telephony communication. Information contained in the call detail records is used to determine which call detail records relate to the same telephony communication. Once the call detail records relating to the same telephony communication are identified, a global identification number can be written into each of the call detail records to tie them together, or information drawn from the multiple call detail records can be used to create a single consolidated call detail record.

Abstract: A method for improving traffic flow over a first network by adjusting the ratio and identity of traffic offloaded to a second network based on analysis of call detail records (CDRs).

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of detecting and correcting a fault in a signal transmission system. The method for detecting and correcting signal transmission faults in a signal transmission system includes bi-directional signaling on the same fiber, cable or signal line. A fault in a transmitted signal from a first upstream node to a second downstream node is determined by the loss or degradation of a signal simultaneously transmitted from the second downstream node to the first upstream node transmitted in the opposite on the same cable, signal line, or optical fiber. As a result, the aggregate propagation delay of the transmitted signals necessary for fault detection and fault notification is reduced and the amount of time to detect a fault and restore fault free signal transmission between one node and another node in a signal transmission systems is reduced, thereby increasing user satisfaction with minimal signal transmission interruptions even in the case of a transmission line fault.
