Operation Method for Signaling Network Resources in Signaling Gateway System

The present invention provides a signal network interworking service required for interworking between a public switched telecommunication network (hereinafter referred to as "PSTN") service and a next generation network (hereinafter referred to as "NGN") service. Signaling network specification in the SG system for defining the signaling network-related specifications of the signaling system (hereinafter referred to as "SG") system, and to efficiently operate the signaling network-related specifications and to realize the method The present invention relates to a computer-readable recording medium that records a program. More specifically, a network function of a gateway system required to provide interworking between NGN service and PSTN service, which has emerged due to the development of an IP (Internet Protocol) network, is provided. SG system to be performed, interworking the common line signaling method (hereinafter referred to as "No.7") network and the NGN signal network, which is a PSTN signal network Define the specifications needed to signal network and relates to Signaling Network Management specification method in the SG system necessary for efficient signal processing the message from the SG system.

In a general PSTN communication network system, when a call connection and various communication services are provided between subscribers, a signaling message is transmitted through a signal network to request a call connection and a service. As a signaling method for transmitting a signal message, our country currently adopts the No.7 common line signaling method as a domestic standard signaling method, and many countries around the world have been proposed as an international standard (ITU-T). It adopts No.7 common line signal system.

No.7 signal network has a signaling point (SP) that is a signal node constituting the signal network, a signaling link (SL) for connecting the signal points, and a signaling link set (LS) that is a set of signal links. Set), which consists of specification data called a signaling route (SR), which is a message transfer path to a signal point. In order to transmit a signaling message generated from Originating Point Code (OPC) to a Destination Point Code (DPC), the signaling message is delivered to a specific signal link of a signal link set constituting a signal route directed to the destination point. Perform call access and service requests.

Currently, network system service providers are trying to adopt an IP network that has a rapid development speed and a wide range of networks. This demand led to the emergence of NGN services that implement existing network services as IP networks, and NGN services applied new control, management, and signaling technologies to support all types of services now and in the future. It is rapidly growing as a packet-based network service. However, the NGN service cannot be developed without considering the subscribers of the existing PSTN service, and therefore, interworking with the existing PSTN service is essential for the NGN service. That is, a scheme for enabling a smooth communication between the existing PSTN service subscriber and the NGN service subscriber becomes a necessary requirement.

In the NGN service network, a system that performs such a function is called a gateway system, and in particular, a system that provides a signal network interworking function is called an SG system.

SG system is a system required for interworking between PSTN signal network and NGN signal network, and requires the function of managing and operating both signal network specifications.

The PSTN signaling network specification is the existing No.7 signaling network specification and manages and operates the signal point, signal link set, signal link, and signal route specification described above in the SG system. This specification is a function that is basically provided by the system that provides the existing PSTN signal network function, and similar functions are provided by the SG system. However, NGN signal network specifications are based on the Request for Comments (RFC) called SIGTRAN (Signaling Transport) proposed by the IETF international organization, the Internet Standards Development Organization, so the SG system can be managed more efficiently. It is necessary. Here, SIGTRAN (Signaling Transport) is a protocol stack for transmitting a PSTN signaling protocol through an IP network, and is used between an SG and a Softswitch, and transmits a signal of a public telephone network or an intelligent network to a packet-based communication network. It is to.

On the other hand, in the SG system, the signal network specification requires a signal point, a signal link set, a signal link, and a signal route for interworking with the PSTN signal network, and an AS (Application Server) and an SP (for interworking with the NGN signal network). Something like the Signaling Process, Association, and Routing Key are required. Here, the SP (Signaling Process) is divided into an SG (Signaling Gateway Process) that performs its own SG function in the SG system and an ASP (Application Server Process) that performs the AS function.

In order for the SG to process the signaling message between the PSTN signal network and the NGN signal network using the specifications, a function for efficiently configuring the specifications and configuring the information required by the SG is required.

The present invention has been proposed to meet the requirements as described above, and defines the signal network specifications required in the signal gateway (SG) system for interworking the PSTN and the next-generation network (NGN), and efficiently An object of the present invention is to provide a method for operating a signal network in a signal gateway system that can be operated by a computer and a computer-readable recording medium that records a program for realizing the method.

In the figure, "110" represents a PSTN signal network, "120" represents an SG system, "130" represents an IP signal network, and "140" represents a soft switch (SSW) system, respectively.

Currently, the communication service is developed as an IP (Internet Protocol) network 130, the PSTN service provided in the existing wired network is developing in the form of NGN service.

In the early days, the introduction of NGN service inevitably considered interworking with PSTN services and required a gateway system to perform such interworking functions.

As in the existing call processing flow, in order for the PSTN service and the NGN service to interwork, transmission and reception of signal messages are required before actual voice and data transmission and reception.

When the PSTN signal network 110 and the NGN signal networks 130 and 140 interwork, the SG system 120 interworks with the STP system as a No. 7 signal link. The SG system 120 converts the No. 7 signal message received from the STP system into an IP signal message, and delivers the signal message to the SSW system 140 that must process the corresponding signal message. The IP signal message received from the SSW system 140 is converted into a No.7 signal message in the SG system 120 and transmitted to the corresponding STP system.
