Method for controlling operation and management subsystem in signalling message exchange No. 1 system

Claim 1

A method for controlling an operation and management subsystem(OMS) in a signalling message exchange No.1 system(SMX-1), the OMS including a user interface subsystem(UIS), a target interface subsystem(TIS), an operation control subsystem(OCS), an interworking subsystem of a signalling network operation system(SIGIS), a management subsystem of the operation and management subsystem(OMSMS) and a data management subsystem(DMS), comprising the steps of: (a) when the OMS being at an idle state receives a message from the SMX-1 via a highway interface unit(HIFU), transmitting the message to the TIS, deciding which subsystem the message is to be transmitted to based on a module identifier value of the message, converting the message into a format compatible with the decided subsystem and outputting the converted message to the decided subsystem; (b) when the identifier value is 1 at the step (a), outputting the converted message to the SIGIS, reconverting the converted message into a format compatible with a signalling network operations system(SIGNOS) and outputting the reconverted message to the SIGNOS; (c) when the identifier value is 0 at the step (a), outputting the converted message to the OCS, reconverting the converted message into a format compatible with a database equipped in the OMS and storing the reconverted message into the database; (d) when the identifier value is 2 at the step (a), outputting the converted message to the UIS, formatting the converted message into a format compatible with a printer or a user and outputting the formatted message to the printer or the user; (e) when the OMS being at an idle state receives a message from an operation and management worksite(OMW), transmitting the message to the UIS, deciding which subsystem the message is to be transmitted to based on a module identifier value of the message, converting the message into a format compatible with the decided subsystem and outputting the converted message to the decided subsystem; (f) when the identifier value is 0 at the step (e), transmitting the converted message to the DMS via the OCS, retrieving data of the database by the DMS; (g) when the identifier value is 3 at the step (e), outputting the converted message to the OMSMS and monitoring a current state of OMS by the OMSMS; (h) when the identifier value is 4 at the step (e), outputting the converted message to the SMX-1 via the HIFU; and (i) when the identifier value is 1 at the step (e), outputting the converted message to the SIGIS, reconverting the converted message into a format compatible with the SIGNOS and outputting the reconverted message to the SIGNOS.

Claim 2
