Abstract
Abstract In a method for the transmission of subscriber data between network nodes in at least one communications network supporting the structure of an intelligent network, each time a network subscriber passes from a first mobile location zone having an originating network node into a second mobile location zone having a target network node, trigger data as subscriber-related data respectively stored for the network subscriber are requested by a central network node and are transmitted to the target network node, which, in the second mobile location zone, creates a connection to a separate network node in a call processing using the data. In this way, in addition to the current subscriber data, the subscriber-related branching data can be made dynamically available at all times and to all mobile locations to the network subscriber moving arbitrarily in a communications network.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
139 words
A method for transmission of subscriber data between network nodes in at least one communication network supporting a structure of an intelligent network, comprising the steps of: storing subscriber-related service data and subscriber-related trigger data for network subscribers in a central network node; and every time a network subscriber roams from a first mobile location zone having an originating network node into a second mobile location zone having a target network node, automatically requesting by the central network node the subscriber-related service data and trigger data stored for the network subscriber and transmitting the subscriber-related service data and trigger data to the target network node which sets up a connection to a separate network node in a call processing using the subscriber-related trigger data in order to transmit information for further call processing back to the target network node.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
139 words
A method for transmission of subscriber data between network nodes in at least one communication network supporting a structure of an intelligent network, comprising the steps of: storing subscriber-related service data and subscriber-related trigger data for network subscribers in a central network node; and every time a network subscriber roams from a first mobile location zone having an originating network node into a second mobile location zone having a target network node, automatically requesting by the central network node the subscriber-related service data and trigger data stored for the network subscriber and transmitting the subscriber-related service data and trigger data to the target network node which sets up a connection to a separate network node in a call processing using the subscriber-related trigger data in order to transmit information for further call processing back to the target network node.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
36 words
A method according to claim 1 including the step of providing the first mobile location zone having the originating network node and a second mobile location zone having the target network node in one communications network.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
36 words
A method according to claim 1 including the step of providing the first mobile location zone having the originating network node and the second mobile location zone having the target network node in different communications networks.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
19 words
A method according to claim 1 including the step of providing the communications network as a wire-bound fixed network.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
19 words
A method according to claim 1 including the step of providing the communications network as a mobile radio network.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
42 words
A method according to claim 5 wherein the originating network node and the target network node respectively form a visitor location register of the mobile radio network, and the central network node forms a home location register of the mobile radio network.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
36 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein the subscriber-related data contains base information for distinguishing originating calls and terminating calls, trigger detection points, and at least one address information for selection of the separate network node.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
44 words
A method according to claim 7 wherein the subscriber-related data contain additional control information that indicate whether the trigger information are controlled by the network subscriber himself or by a network operator of the communications network, or respectively whether the trigger information are activated.
Claim 10
Independent Claim
180 words
A method for transmission of subscriber data between network nodes in mobile radio net works, comprising the steps of: storing subscriber-related service data and subscriber-related trigger data for network subscribers in a central network node; when a network subscriber roams from a first mobile location zone in a first mobile radio network having an originating network node into a second mobile location zone of a second mobile radio net work having a target network node, automatically requesting by the central network node a subscriber-related service data and trigger data stored for the network subscriber and transmitting the subscriber-related service data and trigger data to the target network node which sets up a connection to a separate network node in a call processing using the subscriber-related trigger data in order to transmit information for further call processing back to the target network node, and wherein the trigger data contains one or more pieces of trigger information known as trigger detection points which identify a call-related trigger profile in a manner dependent on services defined for and called by the network subscriber.
