8、perator Services in the SS7 PSTN are standardized in ANSI T1.666 T1.666. That standard describes a network capability. That is, it describes processes for setting up a call from the caller to the Operator Services System (OSS), transferring the call from one OSS to another, and completing a call fro

9、m an OSS to a called party. Additional specialized functions are described for connection hold (preventing the calling party from disconnecting), network control of a coin phone, and network service recall (returning control of the call to the OSS after the end of a call to a called party.) T1.666 d

10、oes not provide a detailed service description from the perspective of the calling party. This standard similarly does not provide detailed service descriptions for Operator Services. Rather, high-level descriptions of the basic set of Operator Services are given and the signaling protocol elements

11、required to support those services at an NGN-based OSS are described in detail. Illustrative examples are provided to show the transfer of needed information from the calling party to the OSS and from the OSS to called parties (e.g., for Call Completion service.) The service logic associated with de

12、termining which Operator Service to provide to the calling party and the service-specific interactions (e.g., access to databases) is not described in detail. 2 Scope and Purpose This standard describes signaling support for Operator Services when the application providing the services resides in th

13、e NGN. The services within the scope of this standard include: 1. Directory Assistance/Directory Assistance Call Completion 2. Operator Assistance 3. Transfer to an Interexchange Carrier 4. Call Completion 5. Person Handling (Person-to-Person Call) 6. Calling Card and Commercial Credit Card (Alterna

14、te Billing) 7. Collect or Reverse Charging (Alternate Billing) 8. Third Number Billing (Alternate Billing) Network control of a coin phone is out of the scope of this standard. Intercept Service (providing information to the calling party regarding a number which has been disconnected or changed) is

15、 for further study. Busy Line Verification Service (verifying for the calling party that a called number is not out of service but is busy) and Interrupt Service (bridging an operator onto an existing call between two parties to alert one of the parties that the calling party is attempting to reach

16、them) are also for further study. The scope of this standard includes: 1. SS7 to SIP interworking for a call originating in the PSTN and directed toward the Operator Services System (OSS) in the NGN. 2. SIP signaling for a call originating in the NGN and directed toward the Operator Services System

17、(OSS) in the NGN. ATIS-1000036 3 In addition, this standard describes the signaling for establishing a call/session from the OSS to a further destination, noting the similarities to normal call/session setup signaling. Interconnection is assumed to be between trusted domains; the information and par

18、ameters required for this service are only available either within a trust domain or between trusted domains. In addition, in the absence of trust, and depending on exactly which information is not trusted, basic call setup may not function as expected.ATIS-1000036 4 Signaling to establish a call/se

19、ssion from the NGN to an OSS in the PSTN is not addressed in this standard, though ISUP/SIP interworking as described in ANSI T1.679 T1.679 should provide the needed functionality. 3 Normative References ATIS-1000005 ATIS-1000005-2006, Technical Report: Service Description of ETS ATIS-1000018 ATIS-1

27、y perspective. The definitions also apply to a mixed PSTN/NGN environment, where the calling party may be in an NGN and where the operator services system (OSS) may be in an NGN. 5.1 Directory Assistance/Directory Assistance Call Completion The telephone number for a given name and address is provid

28、ed to the calling party by an OSS. Call completion to the telephone number is an option available to the calling party. The OSS can complete a call for a calling party to the directory listing number that is found. Operator recall returns the calling party to the OSS when signaled by the calling par

29、ty. In the PSTN, Operator Recall may be signaled by depressing the flash-hook. NGN terminals are not expected to signal the hook-flash. Therefore, NGN signaling for Operator Recall is assumed to be network-specific and is not described in this standard. 5.2 Operator Assistance Dialing instructions a

30、nd rate information are provided to the calling party by an OSS. 5.3 Transfer to Inter-exchange Carrier Based on the interaction with the calling party, the OSS progresses the call into another network. The call appears to the other network as an incoming call to that networks OSS. 5.4 Call Completi

31、on The OSS completes a call for the calling party. The called number may be determined by an operator service (e.g., Directory Assistance), or by the calling party alone (by providing the called number to the ATIS-1000036 6 OSS.) This service includes an optional feature (Operator Recall) to return

32、the calling party to an operator when signaled by the calling party. In the PSTN, Operator Recall may be signaled by depressing the flash-hook. NGN terminals are not expected to signal the hook-flash. Therefore, NGN signaling for Operator Recall is assumed to be network-specific and is not described

33、 in this standard. 5.5 Person Handling (Person-to-Person Call) The OSS completes a call for the calling party. In addition, before the calling and called parties are connected, the OSS confirms that a specific individual has been contacted, rather than just the requested end user equipment. 5.6 Call

34、ing Card and Commercial Credit Card (Alternate Billing) The calling party requests that the call be billed to a calling card or commercial credit card. After verification of the card, the OSS completes the call for the calling party. 5.7 Collect or Reverse Charging (Alternate Billing) The calling pa

35、rty requests that the call be billed to the called party. The OSS completes the call for the calling party. In addition, before the calling and called parties are connected, the OSS confirms that the called party will accept the charges for the call. 5.8 Third Number Billing (Alternate Billing) The

36、calling party requests that the call be billed to a third party. The OSS places a call to the third party to confirm that the third party will accept the charges for the call. After this verification, the OSS completes the call for the calling party. 6 Architecture Model The network architecture tha

37、t provides the context for Operator Services is taken from ATIS-1000018 with the assumption that the Operator Services System will be a part of a Voice over IP network. For completeness in describing the PSTN/NGN gateway, a PSTN-based OSS is also shown. ATIS-1000036 7 OtherIPNetworksASP-MwMwMxMrMiDx

42、r Services System originates. Either “VoIP access network Y” or the PSTN is the network where a call is delivered from the Operator Services System (e.g., for Call Completion service.) “VoIP Service Provider A” supplies the initial contact with operator services. “VoIP Service Provider B” provides o

43、perator services to the calling party if and when the call is transferred there from VoIP Service Provider A. Internal functionality within the Operator Services System is described in ATIS-1000018. 7 Information Elements This section describes the information elements needed for operator services p

44、rocessing which are conveyed between the OSS and other network entities. These information elements are carried in the SS7 ISUP and NGN SIP messaging described in this standard. For PSTN originations, information elements mapped to SIP headers will be included in any encapsulated ISUP. Per T1.679, i

45、nformation in the SIP headers has precedence over encapsulated content when there is any conflict between the two. 7.1 Information Elements in Forward Direction Toward the OSS 7.1.1 Dialed Digits The Dialed Digits information element is applicable for PSTN and NGN originations. For PSTN originations

46、, the MGCF recognizes the call as directed to Operator Services (e.g., by incoming trunk group or by referring to the received Operator Services Information parameter for send paid calls) and populates the Request-URI accordingly. Thus, the Request-URI may be populated with an operator-services spec

47、ific domain name (e.g., for dialed digits “NPA-NXX-YYYY” recognized as destined for operator services based on the incoming trunk group, “sip:NPA-NXX-YYYYOperatorS; phone-context=+1;user=phone“ or “AlternateBillingOperatorS“). The original dialed digits (including any prefix digits) are provided in

48、SIP History-Info and Diversion headers. The information is also passed in the Called Party Number parameter in the encapsulated ISUP. Alternatively, the Request-URI may be populated such that if the IAM includes an indication that the user dialed an initial “0” (Operator Services Information paramet

49、er with a Information Value Type = 001 (original access prefix) and Information Value = 0010 (0+ or 01+) or Information Value = 0010 (0-), then the “0” is included as the first (or only) digit of the called number. For NGN originations, the callers AS, on recognizing that the dialed digits reference an operator service will retarget the call, providing a Request-URI that is specific to the particular Operator Service (e.g., “sip:NPA-NXX-YYYYOperatorS; phone-context=+1;user=pho
