[0004] telemetry system generally is used for monitoring environment condition and device parameter.This system is widely used in various application and comprises safety, health monitoring, vehicle and asset tracking and device and monitoring of tools.

[0005] typical telemetry system comprises some remote measuring units, is used for that measured value is encoded to the encoder of analog or digital signal of communication and is used to transmit the conveyer of this signal of communication.

[0006] use for many remote measurements, key is will be sent to supervisory control system apace by the information that remote-control device obtains.For example, if security alarm information or health status information are not transmitted apace, it may be not only useless but also be harmful to so.Therefore, effective for making telemetry system, should be able to be between remote-control device and control and monitor console Data transmission apace.

[0007] some telemetry systems utilize radio telecommunications system to transmit telemetry application.Transmit if the Traffic Channel of this system is used for data, it may cause undesirable delay so.That is, setting up the delay of calling out to transmit the telemetry application association may be excessive for some application.

[0008] this problem has utilized AMPSAdvanced Mobile Phone Service (AMPS) standard to be solved in the communication system environment.Authorize the United States Patent (USP) 5845203 (' 203 patent) of Ladue and described the method for on the control channel of cordless communication network, transmitting ASD (as telemetry application).ASD from remote-control device encodes in stream of dialed digits together with remote diagnosis control request (RFCR).

[0009] the RFCR function that provides among the AMPS allows roaming cellular telephone to call feature (as speed dialling) from the related attaching position register (HLR) of this locality (ownership) mobile switching centre (MSC) that cell phone is assigned.

[0010] RFCR is arranged in the stream of dialed digits of the call source message of initiating with roaming cellular telephone.The service MSC of visit in the cellular service area is when detecting RFCR in receipt of call source message and the stream of dialed digits followed, and network between cellular radio telecommunication system in China (as Signaling System 7(SS-7) (SS7) network) is gone up the HLR that RFCR is forwarded to the ownership MSC association of roaming cellular telephone.

[0011] system of describing in ' 203 patents utilizes RFCR that ASD is sent to CMS from remote-control device.Remote-control device has been assigned with mobile identification number (MIN) so that it shows as the roaming cellular telephone of local MSC.Local then MSC serves as the service MSC of remote-control device.Thereby the selected CMS of making of the region code of stipulating among the MIN that has assigned plays the HLR of the ownership MSC association of remote-control device.CMS also shows as the Service Control Point on the SS7 network so that receive preceding automatically RFCR and the ASD that changes by service MSC.

[0012] this is implemented according to as described below.RFCR is arranged in the stream of dialed digits of the call source message of initiating with radio communication device.In addition, ASD also is arranged in the stream of dialed digits.Call source message and stream of dialed digits are sent to service MSC on control channel.Service MSC receipt of call source message and related stream of dialed digits, and detect RFCR, triggering are served MSC and are given to CMS/SCP before with the stream of dialed digits that will comprise RFCR and application-specific data on the SS7 network.

[0013] this scheme provides several advantages, comprises geography and infrastructure applicability widely, need not access service channel (low cost), need not to revise service MSC hardware or software.

[0014] however this scheme is not immaculate, a tangible shortcoming is that it is subject to and adopts the communication system that specific " feature access request " function (being AMPS) standard is provided.In addition, the explanation of feature request can change with carrier is different.For example " * 74 " may be interpreted as by concrete carrier and represent calling-preceding commentaries on classics message, but this explanation is not the normal structure regulation, so different carriers can have different explanations.

It is [0015] a kind of that widely used the digital wireless communication standard of AMPS feature access request functionality is not provided is GSM.A method that transmits ASD in the gsm communication network is via short-message system (SMS).The method shortcoming is that message is transmitted on network traffic channel.This method consumption cost and very slow is because they call the international roaming call rate and they need set up calling and end call afterwards before message transmits.

[0016] needs a kind of method that on the control channel of gsm communication network, transmits ASD.
