Call content management for mobile devices
One example method of operation may include identifying a call to a mobile device, determining whether the call includes call content data intended for the mobile device, initiating an active session and a time to live (TTL) associated with the call content data, forwarding the call content data to the mobile device when the call includes call content data associated with the caller, and receiving a content confirmation from the mobile device that the call content data was received.
Core network bypass for toll-free calling
Techniques are described for determining when and how to re-route toll-free calls around a core telephony network experiencing significant disruptions. A core telephony network of a telephony service provider is monitored for anomalies. Upon detecting an anomaly, it is determined whether the anomaly is significant enough to warrant re-routing inbound toll-free calls around the core telephony network. The re-routing process comprises accessing an industry registry database including a plurality of toll-free numbers (TFNs) associated with a routing template comprising the instructions for routing toll-free calls. The routing template instructions may be switched to re-direct toll-free calls associated with one or more specific TFNs to a particular carrier. Within that particular carrier, the routing instructions may be switched to re-direct the toll-free calls away from the service provider's core telephony network to a network bypass cloud platform. The network bypass cloud platform may be configured to receive toll-free calls, determine a customer telephony network to which to route the received toll-free calls based on the TFN of the toll-free call, and route the toll-free call to the customer telephony network.

Method of implementing an interactive presentation in the form of an interactive legal hearing in real-time
A computer system providing audio and visual proceedings between staff, admin, and citizen users in a virtual courtroom environment and wherein the computer system facilitates the proceedings in the virtual courtroom. The computer system includes a plurality of graphical user interfaces providing unique passcodes for joining a proceeding, schedules, audio and video capacities, and custom legal document preparation and acknowledgement. The computer system allowing the staff, admin, and citizen users to interact privately in the proceedings and the proceedings being encrypted and recorded in accordance with the law.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PERSONALIZING THE LANGUAGE ASSOCIATED WITH OUTBOUND CALLS
An approach is described for facilitating an outbound call from a calling party and a called party by displaying specific information on the communication device of the called party. The displayed specific information is based on a communication characteristic of the called party, where the communication characteristic includes a language characteristic of the called party. Based on language characteristic of the called party, customized display content is provided to the communications device of the called party, on or prior to the called party being alerted to the requested communication. The customized display content improves the answer rate and the conversion rate of the outbound call.
PARALLEL PATH CALLER VERIFICATION CONTROLLER
The present disclosure describes techniques for determining whether a communication request is associated with a legitimate communication or spoof communication, prior to establishing the connection. A Parallel Path Caller Verification (PPCV) controller is described that is configured to intercept a communication request from an originating device and generate a proof-of-identity (PoI) message for delivery to the originating device. Upon receipt of a reply message that is responsive to the PoI message, the PPCV controller may determine whether the communication is a legitimate communication. If the communication is determined as legitimate, the PPCV controller may establish a communication based on the communication request.
Handling calls on a shared speech-enabled device
In some implementations, a determination that a first party has spoken a query for a voice-enabled virtual assistant during a voice call between the first party and a second party is made, in response to the determination that the first party has spoken the query for the voice-enabled virtual assistant during the voice call between the first party and the second party, the voice call between the first party and the second party is placed on hold, a determination that the voice-enabled virtual assistant has resolved the query is made, and in response to the determination that the voice-enabled virtual assistant has handled the query, the voice call between the first party and the second party is resumed from hold.

Methods and apparatuses for enhancement to IP multimedia subsystem
Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for enhancement to an internet protocol (IP) multimedia subsystem (IMS). According to an embodiment, an application server (AS) of the IMS receives from a terminal device a first request for initiating a call service and an internet service which are to be integrated with each other. The AS of the IMS sends a second request for initiating the internet service to a gateway server that acts as a gateway to an internet AS capable of providing the internet service. In response to a reply from the gateway server, the AS of the IMS handles the first request based on the reply.
Status prompt multimedia playing method and system, and apparatus
Example status prompt multimedia playing methods and apparatus are described. One example method includes receiving a first multimedia request by a status prompt application server, where the first multimedia request includes a non-idle identifier and is sent by a TAS. The status prompt application server sends a first multimedia response including a status prompt multimedia session description protocol (SDP) to the TAS, and receives a first multimedia acknowledgement message that includes a calling-side multimedia SDP and that is sent by the TAS. In this way, the status prompt application server obtains the calling-side multimedia SDP, and implements negotiation and acknowledgement of multimedia capability sets between the status prompt application server and a calling terminal device. The status prompt application server can play corresponding status prompt multimedia for the calling terminal device based on different non-idle identifiers. This implements playing of personalized status prompt multimedia in a non-idle state scenario.
