Call Flowt

The document describes the call flow process for a call with Customized Ring Back Tone (CRBT) service. It involves the following key steps: 1. The caller's local MSC communicates with the recipient's HLR to determine the receiving MSC and sends an IAM. The receiving MSC checks if the recipient is available and verifies they are entitled to CRBT service. 2. The receiving MSC transfers the IAM to the CRBT server, opening the voice channel between them. The CRBT server then plays a customized ringback tone for the caller. 3. When the recipient answers, the receiving MSC sends a release message to the CRBT server ending the fake "

CRBT Call Flow

The Call Establishment with CRBT call flow is conducted in the following manner:

1. Caller places a call. Its nearest MSC (the Calling MSC) communicates with the HLR
(Home Location Register) in order to find the receiving MSC. Then the Calling-MSC sends an IAM (Initial Address Message) towards the Receiving MSC, which replies back with an ACM (Address Complete Message) and checks (pages) the called party to verify whether he/she is available see note (1). The receiving MSC verifies that the called party is entitled to the CRBT service, and transfers the modified IAM to the Music/Voice Ring Back Tone Server, which acts as the edge SSP see note (3). At this point there is a voice channel connection between the Receiving MSC and the calling MSC. By sending an Answer Message (ANM) from the edge SSP (the Ring Back Tone Server) to the Receiving MSC, the voice channels are now opened from the Ring Back Tone Server through the Receiving MSC toward the Calling-MSC. From the point of view of the Receiving MSC, the situation is like a conversation that has just begun. At this point, the Ring Back Tone Server injects the CRBT clip. For the Calling MSC, the channel is opened only for receiving Call progress tones, since no Answer Message (ANM) has yet been received from the Receiving MSC. Prior to sending the CRBT clip, the edge SSP (Ring Back Tone Server) queries the Service Control Point (SCP) as to which Clip ID is to be played as a function of: (see note (2)). The specific CRBT service/feature (see Add-on CRBT features). The time and date (if relevant to the specific service/feature) The calling number The called number (actually the subscriber of the service) The called subscriber answers the call (see note (4)), identified by the corresponding Base Station and informs the Receiving MSC. The Receiving MSC issues a Release Message (REL) towards the edge SSP (Ring Back Tone Server) to terminate the "call" actually from the point of view of the edge SSP. This is the end of the conversation between them (see note (5)).

6. The Receiving MSC continues the call flow normally by sending an ANM toward the
calling MSC and the actual conversation starts (see note (6)). ACM = Address Complete Message, ANM = Answer Message, REL = Release Request Message, RLC = Release confirm Message, SCP = Service Cntrl point, SSP = Service Switching Point, STP = Signaling Transfer Point.
