Brief History

This Standard is one of a series of ECMA Standards defining services and signalling protocols applicable to Private Integrated Services Networks (PISNs). The series uses ISDN concepts as developed by ITU-T and conforms to the framework of International Standards for Open Systems Interconnection as defined by ISO/IEC. This particular Standard specifies the Message Waiting Indication supplementary service. This Standard is based upon the practical experience of ECMA member companies and the results of their active and continuous participation in the work of ISO/IEC JTC1, ITU-T, ETSI and other international and national standardization bodies. It represents a pragmatic and widely based consensus. Compared to the 2nd Edition of Standard ECMA-241 (published by ECMA in September 1997), the 3rd Edition incorporated changes to allow indication of multimedia messages.

Adopted as 4th Edition of Standard ECMA-241 by the General Assembly in February 2002.

Scope This Standard specifies supplementary service Message Waiting Indication (SS-MWI), which is related, but not limited, to various basic services supported by Private Integrated Services Networks (PISNs). Basic services are specified in ECMA-142. This supplementary service MWI enables a Served User to be sent a Message Waiting Indication and also enables this Message Waiting Indication to be cancelled. Service specifications are produced in three stages, according to the method described in ETS 300 387. This Standard contains the stage 1 and stage 2 specifications of SS-MWI. The stage 1 specification (clause 6) specifies the supplementary service as seen by users of PISNs. The stage 2 specification (clause 7) specifies the functional entities involved in the supplementary service and the information flows between them.

2

Conformance In order to conform to this Standard, a stage 3 standard shall specify signalling protocols and equipment behaviour that are capable of being used in a PISN which supports the supplementary service specified in this Standard. This means that, to claim conformance, a stage 3 standard is required to be adequate for the support of those aspects of clause 6 (stage 1) and clause 7 (stage 2) which are relevant to the interface or equipment to which the stage 3 standard applies.

6.1 6.1.1

Description General description The supplementary service MWI enables a Served User to be sent a Message Waiting Indication and also enables this Message Waiting Indication to be cancelled. NOTE The Message Waiting Indication is sent on activation by the Message Centre. NOTE The Message Waiting Indication is cancelled on deactivation by the Message Centre. A Served User can receive separate MWIs for each of the services for which there is a message waiting. NOTE A service for which there is a message waiting would normally use the related basic service to retrieve that message.

6.1.2

Qualifications on applicability to telecommunication services This supplementary service does not apply directly to any basic telecommunication service. However, a MWI relates to a basic service for which there are messages waiting.

Procedures

6.2.1

P r o v is io n / wit h d r a wa l SS-MWI may be provided or withdrawn after pre-arrangement with the service provider or may be generally available to all users.

6.2.2 Normal procedures 6.2.2.1 A c t iv a t io n , d e a c t iv a t io n a n d in t e r r o g a t io n The PISN shall provide activation / deactivation by the Message Centre. In addition, the PISN may provide interrogation by the Served User. To activate SS-MWI, the Message Centre shall supply the PISN number and the service for which there is a message waiting and may, as an implementation option, add any combination of the following pieces of information: the identity of the Message Centre; the number of messages waiting for the Served User for that service; the address of the user that left a message; the time when a message was left; the priority of the highest priority message waiting for that service. After activation, SS-MWI may be activated again whenever the number of waiting messages changes. To deactivate SS-MWI, the Message Centre shall supply the PISN number and the service for which there is no longer a message waiting. As a result of activation, a MWI shall be sent to the Served User. The MWI may include information on messages waiting, if provided by the Message Centre. As a result of deactivation, the MWI at the Served User, for the service concerned, shall be cancelled. When the Message Centre activates or deactivates SS-MWI at the Served User, it shall be provided with an indication of acceptance. When the Served User interrogates SS-MWI for a particular service, the Message Centre shall provide the Served User with an indication of whether SS-MWI is activated for that service and may add, as an implementation option, any of the following information: • the identity of the Message Centre; • the number of messages waiting; • the address of the user that left a message; • the time when a message was left; • the priority of the highest priority message waiting. When the Served User interrogates SS-MWI for all services, the Message Centre shall provide the Served User with a list of services for which SS-MWI is active and, as an implementation option, for each service, any of the additional information listed above. 6.2.2.2

Interworking considerations A PISN may be able to accept MWIs from a Message Centre in another network. In this case, the PISN may also be able to interrogate that Message Centre. A PISN may be able to send MWIs to a Served User in another network. In this case, the PISN may also be able to accept interrogation requests from that Served User.

6.5

Overall SDL Figure 1 contains the dynamic description of SS-MWI using the Specification and Description Language (SDL) defined in ITU-T Rec. Z.100 (1999). The SDL process represents the behaviour of the network in providing SS-MWI. Input signals from the left and output signals to the left represent primitives from and to the Message Centre. Input signals from the right and output signals to the right represent primitives from and to the Served User.

Functional Entity behaviour The FE behaviours shown below are intended to illustrate typical FE behaviour in terms of information flows sent and received. The behaviour of each FE is shown using the Specification and Description Language (SDL) defined in ITU-T Rec. Z.100 (1999).

7.4.1

Be h a v io u r o f F E1 Figure 6 shows the normal behaviour of FE1. Output signals to the left and input signals from the left represent primitives to and from the Message Centre. Output signals to the right and input signals from the right represent information flows from and to FE2.

7.4.2

Be h a v io u r o f F E2 Figure 7 shows the normal behaviour of FE2. Output signals to the left and input signals from the left represent information flows to and from the Served User. Output signals to the right and input signals from the right represent primitives to and from FE1.
