The present invention relates to a method for accessing another area code in a local area routing service by calling source, and more specifically, in case of using an additional service such as local routing in an incoming service using an intelligent network such as a free phone 080 service and a free phone 080 service. If you want to receive a call from a specific number instead of the caller's number currently assigned to the user's calling area in the national numbering service of It is about.

In general, toll-free 080 service has a single number function that allows up to 15 incoming numbers and a maximum of 500 incoming numbers. In case of basic function, up to 8 destination numbers can be designated for area code and up to 15 area codes can be specified. For subscribers who subscribe to the single number function, up to 100 area codes can be specified for each called number.

In addition, the national representative number service can be up to 1000 called number and can specify up to 100 calling regions for each called number. Unlike toll-free 080 service, the national representative number service is based on the caller's charges and can be charged separately according to the subscriber's request.The general service scenario except for the above charge is the same as the single number function of toll-free 080 service. .

As such, if there are several called numbers for one service number, the service subscriber distributes the call to be routed to the called number of the nearest region according to the calling area. In general, if the service user wants to connect to a specific called number even after moving to another area, it is not possible with the current system.

For example, if a service user in Seoul connects to a called number assigned to the Seoul area using a 080 number or a national representative number, then moves to another area and uses the 080 number or national representative number again, The called party number is connected. However, if the subscriber wants to connect to the destination number in the Seoul area, the service user only knows the 080 number or the national representative number and does not know the actual destination number.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, to provide a better quality service to the subscribers toll-free 080 service or the national representative number service by region in the toll-free 080 service and national representative number service. The purpose of this service is to provide a method of accessing other area codes in the local area routing service by calling regions, which improves the quality of service of various marketing means by using other area code access methods in routing. have.

The present invention for achieving the above object is the first step by the service user to access the incoming call guide system by inputting the access number, service number and area code using a telephone; After performing the first step, the second step of delivering the service number and area code to the service control system to authenticate the presence or absence of the service number and the service availability and the actual incoming number in the input area code; After performing step 2, step 3 of searching a database to determine whether a subscriber number exists in the service control system, whether or not a call can be made in a corresponding region, and a real called number; After performing step 3, 4 steps of delivering the search results to the call reception guide system; And after performing step 4, the reception guidance system is characterized in that consisting of five steps to deliver the processed result and the retrieved called number to the service user.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram of an intelligent network hardware for a free telephone 080 service or a national representative number service to which the present invention is applied, and includes a service control system 101, a common line signaling network 102, a service performing exchange 103, and a local exchange. 104, a telephone 105, a service management system 106, and a 080 destination guidance system 107.

The local exchange 104 receives a call to be connected from the 080 toll-free telephone service using the telephone or the national representative number service user 105 to the incoming call guidance system 107 which will be described later. The service performing exchange 103 is connected to the local exchange 104 and transmits the intelligent network service call. The common line signal network 102 is connected to a service performing exchange 103 to deliver service control information. The service management system 106 is connected to the service control system 101 to manage service data.
