Definitions
- the present invention relates to a mobile communication system including mobile terminals with voice mailbox function.
- a voice message can be recorded to a mobile subscriber which is not accessible.
- the voice mailbox subscriber can have a personal greeting recorded which is played to the calling telephone user, who then can provide a greeting.
- the subscriber of the voice mailbox switches on his/her telephone, he/she will have a message, via SMS, that a voice message is to be collected.
- the aim of the present invention consequently is to provide an extensive, easy to understand, and well structured transfer of information between a calling mobile A-subscriber and a not accessible mobile B-subscriber .
- a mobile communication system including mobile terminals with voice mailbox function, at which mobile-adapted WWW-browsers are implemented in said mobile terminals, and that said voice mailbox function provides one more function in the form of at least one home page which can be downloaded into the WWW-browsers of said mobile terminals.
- the calling mobile subscriber gets the home page of the not accessible mobile subscriber downloaded in his/her mobile terminal, the calling mobile subscriber will have extensive, well structured, text information regarding the not accessible subscriber.
- Calling subscriber then can, by means of the number display of his/her mobile terminal, transmit an extensive text message to the, for the time being, not accessible subscriber. This, of course, will considerably increase the service value of the voice mailbox.
- the invention requires that an information server, where subscribers can download their personal home page with information and hypertext-links, is added to the "common" voice mailbox function. If a GSM-mobile calls a not accessible subscriber, and the home page function is activated in the voice mailbox application, the calling mobile user will have a voice message requesting to wait while the home page is downloaded to the mobile. Downloading can be executed either via SMS or USSD, which both can transfer data at the same time as a call is going on.
- the server can transmit an SMS with the home page information to the calling mobile.
- the home page function also in most cases can find out whether the calling customer has a GSM- mobile which can receive the home page information (this will not apply if, for instance, personal numbers are introduced, where the same telephone number can be used for a number of different systems) . If the A-subscriber's system can be identified to be a common telephone or, for instance, NMT, the calling customer is always connected to the common voice mailbox.
- the mobile subscriber can select which of the two functions that a calling mobile shall reach, either the common voice mailbox, or the home page function, but by means of DTMF-signalling or USSD and voice message, also the calling customer would be able to select which of the functions he/she wants.
- Another alternative is that a home page is downloaded at the same time as the calling customer- listens and uses the absent subscriber's classic voice mailbox. If the GSM-mobile which is calling is of an older type, which does not support the mobile-adapted WWW- functionality, it will receive the information as one or more common SMS, where the text will be quite legible. An answer to the absent subscriber then can be written and transmitted as a common SMS to the home page, or directly to the absent subscriber's mobile. This is solved by the SMS from the home page function containing a "reply requested" .
- the invention is characterized in: - that a voice mailbox function can be developed by a server for mobile-adapted WWW-service being connected to the voice mailbox-application, which gives possibility to transmit a home page to the calling subscriber; - that the voice mailbox subscriber can decide if only classic voice mailbox shall be used, if only home page to calling customer shall be used, if home page shall be transmitted to the mobile at the same time as calling subscriber uses the classic voice mailbox, or if calling subscriber shall be able to select between classic voice mailbox and home page by means of DTMF- or USSD-signalling; that the home page function via A-number analysis can decide to which subscriber the home side information shall be transmitted; that the home page information is transmitted to the mobile via USSD or SMS, which both can be transmitted while the call is going on; that A-number analysis decides whether the calling customer's terminal supports SMS or USSD, so that the home page message is not transmitted to, for instance, a PSTN-subscriber , and that the classic voice mailbox is activated.
- the calling customer does not have a GSM-terminal , but yet has similar messaging functionality, for instance IS136 D-APMS and IS95 CDMA, also this can be decided via A-number analysis. That results in that the function is not limited to GSM; that a voice mailbox subscriber can have a number of different home pages, for instance one default and some which are aimed at specific calling subscribers which, on basis of A-number analysis, are selected depending on customer. Alternatively, access to certain "hypertext" -links on the home page can be connected to specific A-numbers. In both cases the voice mailbox subscriber can arrange lists with A- numbers which are connected to specific information.
- the invention can be used to transfer extensive and advanced information to an A-subscriber when a B-subscriber is not accessible. The invention can be used to differentiate the service offering between different operators .
- a voice mailbox In present implementations of a voice mailbox, information to the A-subscriber consequently only consists of a recorded voice message, whereas a voice mailbox with home page function in addition can transfer text information and "hypertext" -links to more directed information to the calling subscriber.
