Abstract: A method for dialing telecommunication connections, in which the dialing process is executed on the part of a value-added service unit on the basis of address data stored on the part of the value-added service unit via a network-open user inertace. The method includes control processes by a search control unit by means of voice input and storage and conversion processes to convert alphanumerical address databases into files in a digitized audio format and recognition procedures for keyboard input.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for setting up an additional service in a mobile radio network.

Abstract: A configuration for debiting charges in a data and telecommunications network is disclosed which has a terminal, a network server, and a billing server that produces charge tickets for calls when using the terminal without a prior prepaid signal and which stores them in a ticket memory. In addition, the configuration has an IN system and software configured for debiting the charges from an electronic credit stored in the account memory when using the terminal after a prior prepaid signal.

Abstract: A method for providing IN services in a network which use one or more network resources and can be triggered via suitable activated triggers in the network, the triggers being activated via an open network interface, and a network system having an intelligent network and at least one open network interface which can be used to activate triggers in the intelligent network which can trigger services which can be provided by the intelligent network.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for setting up a telecommunications link, and charging for it on the basis of location, between a first telecommunications subscriber, in particular a mobile radio subscriber, who is in a particular location and a second telecommunications subscriber in a communications network, in which a preferential charge tariff is used for charging for the telecommunications link if the location of the first telecommunications subscriber belongs to a selection of locations which has been made, where set-up of the telecommunications link is controlled by an intelligent network, and information required for location-based charging is made available to the communications network from an external service logic unit via an open network interface.
