Standard ECMA-192
Private Integrated Services Network (PISN)
- Inter-Exchange Signalling Protocol - Call Offer Supplementary
Service (QSIG-CO)
4th edition (December 2001)
This Standard specifies the signalling protocol for the support
of the Call Offer supplementary service (SS-CO) at the Q reference
point between Private Integrated services Network eXchanges (PINXs)
connected together within a Private Integrated Services Network
(PISN).
SS-CO is a supplementary service which, on request from the calling
user (or on that user's behalf), enables a call to be offered
to a busy called user and to wait for that called user to accept
this call.
The Q reference point is defined in ECMA-133.
Service specifications are produced in three stages and according
to the method specified in ETS 300 387. This Standard contains
the stage 3 specification for the Q reference point and satisfies
the requirements identified by the stage 1 and stage 2 specifications
in ECMA-191.
The signalling protocol for SS-CO operates on top of the signalling
protocol for basic circuit switched call control, as specified
in ECMA-143, and uses certain aspects
of the generic procedures for the control of supplementary services
specified in ECMA-165.
This Standard also specifies additional signalling protocol requirements
for the support of interactions at the Q reference point between
SS-CO and other supplementary services and ANFs.
NOTE
Additional interactions that have no impact on the signalling
protocol at the Q reference point can be found in the relevant
stage 1 specifications.
This Standard is applicable to PINXs which can interconnect to
form a PISN.
The protocol defined in this Standard forms part of the PSS1
protocol (informally known as QSIG).
