Dynamic Media Server or Media Gateway provisioning

Actors

Alice and Bob are Identified Consumer that are Conversation Participants

Alice and Bob are subscribers of different and incompatible Communication Service Providers e.g. WebRTC based and PSTN telephony.

Inter is a Communication Service Provider providing different Telephony Gateway services.

Pre-conditions:

  • Alice and Bob are registered in different CSP.
  • Alice knows Bob identifier
  • Inter service is discoverable
  • Alice’s CSP is able to pay Inter for its communication interoperability services

Description

Similar to H2H Conversation with single CSP but in this case each participant uses different NSPs that implies the usage of a Media Gateway service,

1- Alice pushes the button to invite Bob for an audio/video conversation. 2- Different Interoperability Services with a summary of price and quality are recommended to Alice 3- Alice selects Inter service, the call is notified to Bob and accepted by him.

Remaining procedures are similar to H2H Conversation with single CSP.

Media Server Variant

The same approach can be followed for other network side Communication services e.g. MCU services to support large Multiparty Conversations.

Differentiation – market relevance

Currently, not possible.
