Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The disclosure relates to the field of communications, and in particular to a method, system and device for implementing automatic dual-number roaming.

BACKGROUND

In order to take account of both resources of existing networks and profit of subscribers, an one-card-with-multiple-numbers service exists currently. As long as a subscriber uses a terminal and a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card, the subscriber can enjoy corresponding communication service under a specific condition or position, such as a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) service.

A main objective of the MVNO service is: a certain communication operator of an area A (such as a country A) solves the problem of automatic dual-number roaming between two areas in one-card-with-multiple-numbers way by adopting a cooperative mode with a certain communication operator of an area B (such as a country B). An specific application principle is as shown in FIG. 1.

FIG. 1 is a diagram of a networking structure of existing intelligent service systems for solving automatic dual-number roaming between two areas in one card with two numbers way. As shown in FIG. 1, a process of implementing dual-number roaming by intelligent service systems includes:

1. An MVNO subscriber makes a calling call in the area A by using a number of the communication operator of the area A, and a Mobile Switching Center (MSC) requests subscription information of the subscriber to a Home Location Register (HLR) in the area A. When finding that the subscriber subscribes an intelligent network service, the MSC transmits a message to a Service Control Point (SCP) of an intelligent network platform to trigger an MVNO service calling procedure.

2. An MVNO subscriber makes a call in the area A by using a number of the area B, and an MSC in a roaming area requests subscription information of the subscriber to an HLR in the area B. This call is processed according to a normal international roaming calling procedure, the MSC transmits no message to the intelligent network platform.

3. An MVNO subscriber makes a called call in the area A by using a number of the area A, and the MSC requests subscription information of the subscriber to the HLR in the area A. When finding that the subscriber subscribes the intelligent network service, the MSC transmits a message to the SCP of the intelligent network platform to trigger an MVNO service called procedure.

4. An MVNO subscriber makes a called call in the area A by using a number of the area B, and the MSC in a roaming area requests subscription information of the subscriber to the HLR in the area B. This call is processed according to a normal international roaming called procedure, and the MSC transmits no message to the intelligent network platform.

Generally, procedures that an MVNO subscriber makes a calling call and a called call in the area B by using a number of the area A or area B are the same as the aforementioned conditions in the area A.

For actual applications of the existing automatic dual-number roaming service, only a very few subscribers may stay in the area B for a long time or be frequently located at the area B among subscribers located at the area B and applied for opening the MVNO service in the area A, whereas most of the subscribers are generally located at the area A. The intelligent network platform will be triggered firstly each time the MVNO subscriber making or answering a call in the area A by using a number of the area A. After completing processing, the intelligent network platform notifies the MSC to relay the call, so that the burden of the SCP of the intelligent network platform is increased. Moreover, if a failure occurs on the SCP of the intelligent network platform, normal call making and answering of the subscriber will be affected, and subscriber experience will be seriously affected, thus bringing a great adverse impact to the operators and further going against development of the MVNO service and extension of operation scales of the operators.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

In actual applications, a network device can be added between a core network device and an intelligent network device based on a combination application of core network and intelligent network services in a current network, for example, an IR platform is added between an MSC device in an area A and an intelligent network device.

an MVNO subscriber subscribes a number of the area A to an intelligent network platform on an HLR in the area A, and subscribes a number of an area B to the intelligent network platform on an HLR in the area B; the number of the area A is directed to the IR platform, and the number of the area B is directed to the HLR in the area B.

When a subscriber turns on a terminal in the area A and selects the number of the area A, a turn-on registration message is transmitted to the IR platform, and the IR platform shields intelligent subscription information of the subscriber.

Specifically, a subscriber in the area (such as a CDMA subscriber) A needs to apply an SIM card having an one-card-with-dual-numbers function and being capable of implementing the MVNO service, and the SIM card has two International Mobile Subscriber Identities (IMSIs). One of the two IMSIs is an number of the area A: IMSIa, which is provided by a communication operator in the area A, and is used for subscribing to an intelligent network on the HLR in the area A, and is directed to an SCP of the intelligent network platform; the other of the two IMSIs is an number of the area B: IMSIb, which is provided by a communication operator in the area B, and is used for subscribing to the intelligent network on the HLR in the area B, and is directed to the same SCP of the intelligent network platform with the IMSIa.

When an MVNO subscriber turns on a terminal in the area A and selects a number of the area A, the IR platform determines, according to the IMSI number of the subscriber in the area A, that the subscriber currently uses the number of the area A, then modifies a response message acquired by the HLR in the area A, shields the intelligent subscription information, and returns a modified location update response to a VLR in the area A.

A schematic diagram of a networking structure on which an implementation scheme of the disclosure is based is as shown in FIG. 2, wherein, an MSC (an area A and an area B) processes all exchange and signalling functions of subscribers in the MSC area, and mainly processes functions like establishing (including authentication processing) of subscriber calls, call control and charging and the like.

A VLR (the area A and the area B) is in charge of storing and updating subscriber data of a mobile station roamed to the VLR area. The mobile station may register when entering a new location area, and the MSC receives registration information and transmits an identifier of the location area where the mobile station is located to the VLR. If the subscriber does not register yet, the VLR and the HLR exchange subscriber information. One VLR can be in charge of one or more MSC areas.

The HLR (the area A and the area B) is in charge of providing a function of managing subscriber information to a network. Basic service subscription information, supplementary service subscription information, some location information which make routing and charging of a call can be achieved and other information are included in the HLR.

An Inter-working Gateway (IGW) is in charge of connecting a telephone traffic route between a core network in the area A and a core network in the area B.

A Signalling Transfer Point (STP) is in charge of connecting a signalling route between a core network and the intelligent network platform.

An SCP provides a service logic processing program required for processing an intelligent service, and provides data required by the intelligent service.

An IP platform is configured to connect the core network in the area A and the intelligent network platform, and shield, when it is determined according to an IMSI number of an subscriber that the subscriber currently uses an number of the area A, intelligent subscription information of the subscriber on the HLR in the area A, so as to ensure that the intelligent network platform will not be triggered by a related call flow when the subscriber uses the number of the area A in the area A.

The aforementioned MSC/VLR, HLR, IR platform, and SCP are connected each other by an No. 7 signalling network. A Mobile Application Part (MAP) protocol is applied between the HLR and the MSC/VLR, IR platform, and SCP. A CAMEL Application Part (CAP) protocol is applied between the SCP and the MSC. An ISDN User Part (ISUP) signalling and Telephone User Part (TUP) signalling are applied between the MSC/VLR and IGW in the area A and the MSC/VLR in the area B.

The disclosure is specifically described with reference to the drawings and embodiments.
