SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to make a call to a group of callees who wish to receive a call for the purpose of exchanging specific information from an unspecified caller. In order for the telecommunications network to identify that such a connection is to be made by the caller, by making a call using a predetermined special number (or by specifying a special number),
This is to select one subscriber from the group of callees and transmit the selection result information to the exchange that detected the call to connect the caller and the callee.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention aims at exchanging specific information by a subscriber who wishes to receive an incoming call for the purpose of exchanging specific information from an arbitrary sender by dialing a special number in advance. By displaying the intention to receive the incoming call, the incoming call for the purpose of exchanging specific information to the called party is added by adding the identification information of the subscriber to the list of called parties held in the telecommunications network. In order for the telecommunications network to identify that the caller who wants to make such a connection makes a call by dialing a special number that has been determined in advance, from the list of registered recipients It is characterized in that one calling party is connected to the called party by selecting one subscriber and transmitting the selection result information to the switching device which has detected the calling.

[0005]

[Function] The caller does not need to specify a specific callee
By dialing a special number, it is possible to make a connection request to an unspecified callee who wishes to connect with an arbitrary caller who wants to make a call for the purpose of exchanging specific information. In addition, the callee who wants to connect with any caller who has specific information can register or cancel the call in the list to receive incoming calls for the purpose of exchanging specific information from unspecified callers. It is possible to set or cancel it at will.

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an embodiment of the present invention and shows an arrangement of devices for realizing communication according to the present invention. Generally, there are a plurality of switching devices, each of which accommodates the lines 4 and 6 connected to the communication devices of the subscribers 3 and 5 who are the communication subjects using the telecommunication network, and the switching devices 1i and 1j are interconnected by the relay network 2. And transmits communication information via the relay line 2. Here, the present invention can be applied whether the switching device 1i accommodating the line 4 and the switching device 1j accommodating the line 6 are the same or different. Also, the service control device 7
Has a list 8 of subscribers 5 who wish to receive an incoming call for the purpose of exchanging specific information from an arbitrary sender and, if necessary, a database 8 that can include condition information such as the type of specific information that these subscribers want to exchange. ing. The exchanges 1i and 1j in the telecommunication network and the service controller 7 are connected by means of control information transmission means 9i and 9j, and the exchanges 1i and 1j and the service controller 7 communicate according to the present invention. It is possible to send and receive control information for realizing the above.

FIG. 2 shows a signal flow of one embodiment of the present invention, which is a premise for realizing communication based on the present invention.
A procedure for registering the identification information of the subscriber 5 desiring an incoming call for the purpose of exchanging specific information from an arbitrary caller in the database 8 in the service control device 7 or a procedure for deregistering similar information will be described. There is. The subscriber 5 transmits a calling signal 10 designating a special number assigned for registration through the line 6 in order to register the intention to receive an incoming call for the purpose of exchanging specific information from an arbitrary caller. To do. The switching device 1j, which has detected the call signal 10, identifies the special number in the information of the call signal 10 and transmits the transmission means 9j.
The registration request notification signal 11 is transmitted to the service control device 7 through the. The service control device 7 extracts the number information of the subscriber 5 from the registration request notification signal 11 and stores it in the database 8
Register with. Here, if the subscriber 5 desires, it is possible to register additional information such as information indicating the type of specific information, residence area information, and age information in the database 8. Similar to these registration procedures, the subscriber 5 designates a special number different from that at the time of registration through the line 6 and sends the calling signal 12 to the switching device 1.
The switching device 1j, which has detected this calling signal 12 by transmitting the call signal to j, sends a deregistration request notification signal 13 to the service control device 7, and the service control device 7 sends the registration cancellation request notice signal 13 If the identification information and the condition information such as the type of specific information that the subscriber wants to exchange are registered, the registration can be canceled by deleting the information including the information from the database 8.

FIG. 3 shows a signal flow of an embodiment of the present invention, in which information of a plurality of subscribers including a subscriber 5 desiring to receive a call for the purpose of exchanging specific information from an arbitrary caller is provided as a service. When the user is registered in the control device 7, a procedure for making a connection in response to a connection request from a subscriber 3 who wishes to connect to those subscribers is shown. The subscriber 3 sends a calling signal 14 through the line 4 by designating a special number for requesting an incoming call to a subscriber desiring an incoming call for the purpose of exchanging specific information from an arbitrary subscriber. The switching device 1i which has detected the call signal 14 identifies the special number in the information included in the call signal 14 and transmits the callee selection request signal 15 to the service control device 7 through the transmission means 9i. Upon receiving the callee selection request signal 15, the service control apparatus 7 appropriately selects a plurality of subscribers including the subscriber 5 who wishes to receive a call for the purpose of exchanging specific information from any registered caller. The number information of the subscriber 5, which is the result of selection by logic (for example, the youngest number), is selected and the notification signal of the callee selection result is given.
16 notifies the exchange 1i. In the exchange device 1i,
The connection between the subscriber 3 and the subscriber 5 is realized by performing a general exchange connection process of connecting to the exchange 1j via the trunk line 2 based on this number. The callee selection request signal from the exchange 1i to the service controller 7
The transmission information included in 14 includes information as to which attribute the subscriber 3 desires to select, and the attribute is included in the incoming subscriber selection logic in the service control device 7. It is also possible to include a logic that preferentially selects the receiving subscriber that matches with the above, which enables the selection of the called party having the attribute desired by the calling party, and conversely, the calling party having the attribute not desired by the called party. It is also possible to exclude calls from subscribers.

[0009]

According to the present invention, regarding the specified information, the callee who wants to communicate with the unspecified caller and the caller who wants to communicate with the unspecified caller do not have those wishes. Communication can be realized without causing inconvenience to subscribers. In addition, since the called party can be connected to the calling party without notifying the calling party of his / her own address information, and the registration for which such a connection is desired can be easily canceled, a malicious call to the called party can be prevented. . Further, by registering the attribute information (age, residence area, etc.) of the called party according to the request of the called party, it is possible to select the called party who matches the desired attribute of the calling party.
