Caller ID Protocol Data Frame Protocol

Calling Number Delivery (CND), commonly known as Caller ID, is a service for residential and small business customers that transmits the calling party's number, date, and time of the call during the initial silent interval of ringing. The protocol utilizes 8-bit data words and includes parameters such as a 1200 bps transmission rate and specific signaling characteristics. CND information can be processed for various applications, including displaying caller information, black-listing, and maintaining call logs.

Calling Number Delivery (CND), better known as Caller ID, is a telephone service

intended for residential and small business customers. It allows the called
Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) to receive a calling party's directory number and
the date and time of the call during the first 4 second silent interval in the
ringing cycle.
Caller-ID Parameters

The data signaling interface has the following characteristics:Link Type: 2-


wire, simplex
Transmission Scheme: Analog, phase-coherent FSK
Logical 1 (mark) 1200 +/- 12 Hz
Logical 0 (space) 2200 +/- 22 Hz
Transmission Rate: 1200 bps
Transmission Level: 13.5 +/- dBm into 900 ohm load

Caller-ID Protocol

The protocol uses 8-bit data words (bytes), each bounded by a start bit and a stop
bit. The CND message uses the Single Data Message format shown below.Channel
Seizure Signal Carrier Signal Message Type Word Message Length Word Data
Word(s) Checksum Word

Caller-ID Channel Seizure Signal

The channel seizure is 30 continuous bytes of 55h (01010101) providing a detectable


alternating function to the CPE (i.e. the modem data pump).

Caller-ID Carrier Signal

The carrier signal consists of 130 +/- 25 mS of mark (1200 Hz) to condition the
receiver for data.
Caller-ID Message Type Word

The message type word indicates the service and capability associated with the data
message. The message type word for CND is 04h (00000100).
Caller-ID Message Length Word

The message length word specifies the total number of data words to follow.
Caller-ID Data Words

The data words are encoded in ASCII and represent the following information:
The first two words represent the month
The next two words represent the day of the month
The next two words represent the hour in local military time
The next two words represent the minute after the hour
The calling party's directory number is represented by the remaining words in the
data word field

If the calling party's directory number is not available to the terminating central
office, the data word field contains an ASCII "O". If the calling party invokes the
privacy capability, the data word field contains an ASCII "P".
Caller-ID Checksum Word

The Checksum Word contains the twos complement of the modulo 256 sum of the other
words in the data message (i.e., message type, message length, and data words). The
receiving equipment may calculate the modulo 256 sum of the received words and add
this sum to the received checksum word. A result of zero generally indicates that
the message was correctly received. Message retransmission is not supported.
Example Caller-ID Data Message

An example of a received CND message, beginning with the message type word,
follows:

04 12 30 39 33 30 31 32 32 34 36 30 39 35 35 35 31 32 31 32 51

04h Calling number delivery information code (message type word)


12h 18 decimal; Number of data words (date, time, and directory number words)
30, 39 09; September
33, 30 30; 30th day
31, 32 12; 12:00 PM
32, 34 24; 24 minutes (i.e., 12:24 PM)
36, 30, 39, 35, 35, 35, 31, 32, 31, 32 (609) 555-1212; calling party's directory
number

51h Chcksum Word

Caller-ID Data Access Arrangement (DAA) Requirements

To receive CND information, the modem monitors the phone line between the first and
second ring bursts without causing the DAA to go off hook in the conventional
sense, which would inhibit the transmission of CND by the local central office. A
simple modification to an existing DAA circuit easily accomplishes the task.
Caller-ID Modem Requirements

Although the data signaling interface parameters match those of a Bell 202 modem,
the receiving CPE need not be a Bell 202 modem. A V.23 1200 bps modem receiver may
be used to demodulate the Bell 202 signal. The ring indicate bit (RI) may be used
on a modem to indicate when to monitor the phone line for CND information. After
the RI bit sets, indicating the first ring burst, the host waits for the RI bit to
reset. The host then configures the modem to monitor the phone line for CND
information.
Caller-ID Signaling

According to Telcordia specifications, CND signaling starts as early as 300 mS


after the first ring burst and ends at least 475 mS before the second ring burst
Caller-ID Applications

Once CND information is received the user may process the information in a number
of ways.
The date, time, and calling party's directory number can be displayed.
Using a look-up table, the calling party's directory number can be correlated with
his or her name and the name displayed.
CND information can also be used in additional ways such as for:

Bulletin board applications


Black-listing applications
Keeping logs of system user calls, or
Implementing a telemarketing data base
