  • Publication number: 20090168762
    Abstract: Method for setting up a voice connection between a first terminal set (T1), arranged for the transfer of IP data (c) and of non-VoIP voice signals (v1) via a non-VoIP voice network (N1), and a second terminal set (T2). By the first terminal set (T1) a voice connection is initiated utilizing an interconnection system, (DS) which are arranged to exchange IP data (c) for setting up the desired voice connection with the non-VoIP voice network (N1) and the VoIP voice network (N2). The interconnection system (DS) is arranged for setting up, by means of the IP data (c), a first partial voice connection with the first terminal set (T1) via the non-VoIP voice network (N1) and of one or more further partial voice connections with the second terminal set (T2), and for coupling through the first and the one or more further partial voice connections.

  • Patent number: 6888932
    Abstract: System and method for activating a terminal (7) connectable to a first network (1). An activation module (6) is connected to a second network (5) on the one hand and to the terminal on the other hand and can activate the terminal after receiving an activation code. The activation module might also activate a connection between the terminal and the server, while the server might further activate the terminal. If the second network (5) passes on to the activation module (6) an identifier (e.g. CLI) of the node via which the server (2) connects to the second network, the activation module can activate the terminal in various ways in accordance with the value of the recorded identifier. The server (2) can connect to the network via nodes with various identifiers. The activation code can also comprise notification messages or other messages (for example SMS), which the server (2) sends directly to the user terminal (7) via the activation module (6).

  • Publication number: 20040131169
    Abstract: System comprising a notification server (6) for notifying unsuccessful calls from first terminals (1) via a telecommunication network (2) to a second terminal (4) temporarily not accessible. The notification server is fit to register an identifier of first terminal (1) and to transmit the identifier to the second terminal (4) after the second terminal has become accessible. Monitoring means (5) monitor the accessability of the second terminal. The notification server (6) registers e.g. the calling line identifier of the first terminal (1) and calls, after the second terminal (4) has become accessible, the second terminal (4), transmitting an artificial calling line identifier having the value of the calling line identifier of the first terminal, registered by the notification server. The call to the second terminal (4) is aborted as soon as the identifier has been transmitted to the second terminal.

  • Publication number: 20040064524
    Abstract: Method and system for the dissemination of information via a broadcasting system (1, 2) and broadcast terminals (3, 4). An information server (12) is accessible for telecommunication terminals (7) via a telecommunication network (5). A user who hears or sees an interesting primary information block selects it by making a call via his telecommunication terminal (7) to the information server (12). The information server records a selection code and the address of the calling user, and on the basis of the selection code selects a secondary information block and sends it to the user. As selection code a time code can be used, corresponding with the time at which the relevant primary information block was transmitted. If the broadcasting system comprises several broadcast channels etc., the user specifies the particular one by stating a module code or a specific number under which the information server (12) is called up. The address of the user can be derived from the CLI of the telecommunication terminal (7).
