  • Patent number: 7260406
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for tracking location of synchronous and asynchronous mobile communication network subscribers by using a dual stack home location register and a dual stack mobile positioning center. When the dual stack mobile positioning center externally receives a location tracking request for a subscriber, it requests reception subscriber information to the dual stack home location register, confirms whether the terminal is located in a synchronous or asynchronous mobile communication network by referring to the reception subscriber information from the dual stack home location register and network information, and requests location tracking for the terminal to the corresponding mobile communication network. Accordingly, location of the synchronous and asynchronous mobile communication network subscribers can be tracked in the network in which mobile communication networks using different protocols coexist.

  • Patent number: 7257416
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a mobile location based service system and method. The mobile location based service system includes an application server for receiving a location based service request, and providing a location based service of a mobile station, and a location information providing system for discriminating location of the mobile station according to a kind of a location information service, and transmitting the location of the mobile station to the application server. A cell or GPS based location based service can be selectively provided according to a function of a mobile station of a mobile communication subscriber and a service request type. The GPS based location based service can be provided by an SMS delivery point to point message through an N07 signal network, and thus embodied during a voice call of the mobile station.

  • Patent number: 7236581
    Abstract: The present invention relates to method for providing a calling subscriber with an arbitrary sound chosen by a called subscriber instead of a common ringback tone (RBT) with no progress tone. In this present invention, if a call is generated, a terminating exchanger starts paging of the called and simultaneously requests a trunk connection to a sound db server without waiting acknowledgement of the paging from the called based on the first information on whether or not to replace an RBT and the second information on a route to the sound db server that have been received from a home location register (HLR), and provides a called subscriber identification for the sound db server. Then, the sound db server searches its db for a sound specified by the called, and provides the found sound for the caller instead of a conventional RBT via the terminating exchanger connected through a trunk.

  • Patent number: 7221952
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for processing an address of a short message service center in a WCDMA network, including: a load centralization confirmation step where an operation control unit receives short message processing states from each short message service center, confirms load centralization states of each short message service center, and generates an operation message; a path setup step where a mobile switching center receives a short message from a mobile station, and sets up a transmission path of the short message according to the operation message; and an optimal transmission step where the mobile switching center transmits the short message from the mobile station to the corresponding short message service center through the transmission path according to the result of the path setup step.

  • Publication number: 20060128381
    Abstract: The present invention relates to method for providing an arbitrary sound chosen by a called subscriber instead of an ordinary tone to a calling or call-waiting subscriber. In this present invention, if a call is received, a terminating exchanger requests a trunk connection to a sound db server based on the first information on whether or not to replace an ordinary tone and the second information on a route to the sound db server that were received from a home location register (HLR) when a called was registered, and provides the called identification and call state (idle/busy or call-waiting, etc.) for the sound server. Then, the sound db server searches its db for a sound associated with the call state specified by the called, and provides the found sound for the caller instead of a conventional tone via the terminating exchanger. Through this sequential procedure of network elements, a caller can hear a sound specified by a called instead of a dry ordinary tone.

  • Publication number: 20050078703
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a dual stack mobile communication system for building a single interworking network of an old network which is a 2G/2.5G synchronous mobile communication network such as CDMA2000 communication network and a new network which is a 3G asynchronous mobile communication network such as a universal mobile telecommunications service (UMTS) network in a mobile communication network where the old network and the new network have coexisted the dual stack mobile communication system of the mobile communication network in which the old synchronous network and the new asynchronous network coexist forms a single node by combining same kind nodes of the old network and the new network, wherein the single node searches information for generating two output signal points according to a synchronous protocol and an asynchronous protocol in one input signal point according to the synchronous protocol or asynchronous protocol, and generates one output signal point.

  • Publication number: 20040259543
    Abstract: The present invention relates to apparatus and method of providing a history of failed calls for a subscriber who is targeted by the failed calls. In the present invention, when an exchanger can not route a call to a target subscriber it notifies an HLR (Home Location Register) of call routing failure. Then, the HLR sends information about the failed call, which includes the called and the calling number, and call originating time (or call receiving time), to a call control system. The call control system adds the received failed-call information to a calling history for the called number. Afterwards, when the called number is accessible the call control system provides a subscriber of the called number with the calling history, whereby the subscriber can know all of calling numbers that requested to make connections with him or her while he or she was not able to communicate with a mobile network.
