[0001] The present invention relates to a communication system with selection of services by numbering.
[0002] In the state of the art, there are telephone terminals that have a means for producing a called number. The telephone terminal comprises a resource for generating a call signal which contains in particular the called number so as to reach a correspondent with a telephone terminal answering this called number. It is also known that some fields of the called number may receive information particularizing the call such as the code of the country where the call is located. On the communication network, the transmission circuits are then selected by a resource that decodes the called number field containing the country code of the called party to join a gateway to a national network or the like. In the avionics environment, such as the cabin of an aircraft or other aircraft, there are a number of situations in which the quality of service associated with the transmission of the message exchanged between a correspondent in the passenger compartment of the aircraft aircraft and another correspondent, for example located on the ground, is imposed by the nature of the communication or because the correspondents require a given degree of quality of service. The quality of service, as a non-limiting example in the avionics field, may include compliance with various communication or transmission characteristics such as the data rate, the non-interruption of communication, the communication noise, the security data exchanged in communication by the access provider to the communication network between the caller and the called party, or the subscription of the caller to a particular service ensuring a specified quality of service.
[0003] For example, the caller may want his call to be routed at a certain rate and rate of data packet failures in a data packet communication network, or that his data be encrypted over all or part of the data packet. communication path to prevent them from being usable by an agent intervening on the path or communication path. Ensuring such a quality of service by the access provider to the communication resources presents variable costs which it is necessary to adapt according to various constraints, in particular routing data packets representing the communication. Subscription by a subscriber of a service and its selection to make a particular call are difficult operations that require special attention by the caller and require the access provider to open special processing facilities to handle such requests and then to route under the contract subscribed the communication initiated by the caller. The aforementioned problems are made even more difficult to solve when the calling terminal, respectively the called terminal, is disposed in a limited radiofrequency emission zone such as the cockpit of an aircraft. In this case, the problem is even made more complex by the fact that during long flight phases in particular, the mobile telephone network, GSM type for example, is not accessible, particularly because the aircraft is not located. more in a coverage area of the mobile phone network. It is an object of the present invention to provide an advantageous technical solution for allowing the caller to make a call to a called number by selecting the type of service under which he wants the service provider to access the network. communication processes his call. According to the invention, the caller has a terminal connected by a specific link to the communication resources of a communication access provider capable of transmitting the communication data to at least one called party designated by the caller by means of a phone number. Primarily, the system of the invention comprises: a resource for forming a complex number called, in particular by concatenation, on the basis of a service code identifying a particular service and a called number, selected by a caller; a processing resource for executing at least one service identified by said service code on at least part of the communication path between the caller and the called party; means disposed at the access provider for decoding the service code inserted in the complex number called during the progress of the call and for applying the selected service using said processing resource. According to other features of the invention: the communication system further comprises a resource for assigning at least one service code to be inserted in the complex number called according to the choice by the caller of a quality defined service from a list of choice of communication services, each of these services making it possible to achieve a given quality of service, for at least one communication parameter chosen in particular from the data rate, the size of the communication packets, the encrypting data on a given communication path; the processing resource of at least one service identified by said service code comprises: means for determining communication paths; and / or encryption means; and / or means for establishing at least one tunneling, of VPN type in particular, over at least part of the communication path; the processing resource of at least one service identified by said service code comprises at least one router connected to the calling terminal and, if appropriate, to the called terminal by means of links such as a local network, notably of the WiFi type, the terminal comprising a modem adapted to the connection to the router, in particular WiFi type; - The router has at least one access to a satellite network, including type INMARSAT (Trademark) / BGAN; the calling terminal and / or the called terminal are mobile telephones, notably implementing UMA / GAN, 2G / 3G / 4G / 5G, IMS and / or SIP standards and / or in that the router comprises a GAN system (Generic Access Network); the system comprises a resource for setting up the dialing service on said resource for assigning a service code to be inserted in the called number according to the choice by the subscriber of a quality of service determined from a list of choice of communication services, which comprises a software application loader and / or a preloaded SIM card and a means of subscription of the numbering service; - the service code selected by the subscriber to determine the quality of service is concatenated in prefix or postfix on the number of the called party designated by the caller; the processing resource of at least one service identified by said service code comprises means for decoding the CS code inserted in the called number so as to activate means for selecting routing rules and / or encryption rules and / or constituting at least one tunnel for controlling the communication by at least one modem over a given communication network; the system offers a single service for securing communication between a caller and a called party, in particular by encrypting the communication data, the calling terminal includes a resource for generating a complex number comprising the number of the called party framed by two characters " * "Or by two characters" # "and at least one communication part on the communication path includes means for decoding the complex number to receive the caller's call to the called party and to determine that it is is a communication data encryption service for the current call, said decoding means which controls, by means of a control signal, means for encrypting the communication data for the communication path to the next communication part or the called terminal; the system also comprises a resource for testing the progress of the call to the called party and, if necessary, for generating an alert message to the caller, the called party and / or the access provider of the caller. communication in case of failure of the call according to the quality of service determined by the quality of service selection code chosen by the caller) and / or to notify a party such as the called party that the call in progress progress is produced by a service quality management service as an encryption of communication; - The system further comprises a resource inserted in the communication path during the progress of the call to the caller so as to apply the service determined by the service management code inserted in the called number; the system comprises at least one resource for sending a notification to at least one destination communication party, including the calling party and the called party, for notifying the destination party that the current call is a call to service quality of service management, such as secure communication, by encrypting communication data in particular, or that it is an attempt to secure call or more generally to manage the quality of service, in particular by voice or encrypted text messages, in particular: - the system is used: * by at least one human user using a telephone terminal such as a mobile phone; * by a telephony network that may include at least partially a satellite link; by an automaton or machine such as a drone, an aircraft, a land, sea or space vehicle; * by subscription to a service quality selection service; * in an aircraft cabin or other land, sea or space vehicle. Other characteristics and advantages of the present invention will appear on reading the description with reference to the appended drawings in which: FIG. 1 represents a diagram of an exemplary service code integration numbering; FIG. 2 represents a communication diagram in an avionic environment; FIG. 3 represents a particular embodiment of an avionic communication system incorporating the invention; and - Figure 4 shows an implementation of the invention to a fragment of the communication path. In Figure 1, there is shown the diagram of an exemplary embodiment of a service integration numbering system according to one embodiment of the invention. According to the invention, the telephone number of the called party is a complex number then composed of a first word CS designating the service code selected by the caller, and a second word NA with the telephone number of the called party. . In one embodiment, the second NA word is selected by the caller on his mobile phone, extracting it from the address book. The first word CS is then automatically prefixed by a software application executed on the mobile phone of the caller. The software application is downloaded to the mobile phone in the usual manner when the caller subscribes a service activated by a service code CS. In an exemplary embodiment, the first word CS is chosen in a determined sequence of service codes, for example the following partial list which describes some examples of services with their corresponding CS code: 01 # low voice bit rate 02 # high data rate 03 # increased size of the data packets 10 # encryption on the terrestrial part of the routing 20 # encryption on the satellite portion of the routing Thus, if the subscriber and calling party wishes to obtain a service with an increased size of the data packets (CS code = 03 #), a resource for assigning a service code CS to be inserted in the called number according to the choice by the subscriber of a given quality of service assigns the code selected by the subscriber as CS = 03 # . In an exemplary embodiment, the first word CS is based on the aforementioned list of service codes and at least some of them are combinable to limit the number of digits CS code. By appropriately designing the list of available codes, it is then possible for the subscriber to designate a combination of services to the operator of the communications service with which he has subscribed.
[0004] Thus, if the subscriber wishes to obtain both a service with an increased size of the data packets (code CS = 03 #) and an encryption of the satellite part of the routing (code CS = 20 #), an allocation resource of a CS service code to be inserted in the called number according to the choice by the subscriber of a given quality of service assigns a combined code as CS = 23 #, obtained here by summing the digital parts of the CS codes of the two services selected at the same time by the user.
[0005] In one embodiment, represented in FIG. 1, the resource 1 for assigning a CS service code to be inserted in the called number, depending on the choice by the subscriber of a given quality of service, is connected. to a dialing resource 3 and to a resource for selecting a called number 2. The resource 2 for selecting a called number may include a keyboard for entering the called number, and / or a database for selecting a correspondent in a list of correspondents and out of the database the called number. Such a database is often referred to as an address book and is stored in the calling terminal. In a particular embodiment, the three resources 1-3 described using Figure 1 are combined in a mobile phone for example GSM type, but not only. More specifically, these resources are, at least partially, configured in the mobile phone using a software application, downloaded from a dedicated server, when subscribing to the subscription to at least one service identified by the code of CS service provided and then executed by the communication access provider. This software application is loaded into the program memory of the mobile telephone and, when the subscriber wishes to make a call by requesting at least one communication service selected by the service code CS, he executes said software application. In an exemplary embodiment, the software application, and depending on the circumstances all or part of the resources 1-3 described using Figure 1, are performed on a SIM card. A SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card contains a chip containing a microcontroller and memory. It is used to store the subscriber-specific data of a mobile network, in particular for GSM, UMTS and LTE type networks. It also stores data and applications of the user, its operator or third parties. Other mobile phone systems such as CDMA One, PDC or CDMA 2000 defined by the 3GPP also allow the use of such a card.
[0006] The SIM card contains the subscriber identifier (IMSI number) and the mobile operator who edited the card (MCC + MNC). It is thus expected that the provider of access to a mobile phone network, in the broad sense, publishes a new SIM card including the list of service codes internal to the resource 1 for assigning a service code CS to insert. For example, only one service CS code will be subscribed to the subscription subscription so that the user interface when dialing is simplified to the extreme. Of course, in other embodiments, the resource 1 for assigning a service code CS to be inserted in the called number according to the choice by the subscriber of a given quality of service comprises a code list. CS as previously described and an interface allowing the subscriber to choose the quality of service he desires.
[0007] In other embodiments, the SIM card contains at least part of the numbering resource 3 and the resource to select a called number 2. When a call is controlled by the subscriber on his mobile phone, with of a SIM card described above or of a downloaded software application as defined previously, the system according to the invention concatenates the service code CS and the number called NA so as to generate, on the network of telephone communication, the complex number thus concatenated.
[0008] In an example, if the service code CS chosen or selected is "23 #" in prefix mode, and the number called NA is "01234567", the complex number issued at the exit of resource 3 will be "23 # 01234567" , the concatenation operation being executed by the numbering resource 3. Of course other concatenations are possible, especially in postfix mode, such as "01234567 # 23", in which the CS code was started by a "#" separator. Other separators, or no separator, are also programmable according to the numbering characteristics of the communication networks used. In an exemplary embodiment, the communication service offered using a CS service code includes a single call encryption service from the caller to the called party's station. In this case, the service code can be reduced to its simplest expression such as the presence of a single character "#" before or behind the called number when it is composed by the caller on his own communication terminal.
[0009] When the call is progressing from the caller to the called party, the communication data, which may be voice, data, SMS standard short messages, MMS composite messages, faxes for example to the G3 standard , or video calls, are encrypted by an encryption resource as a means for applying the selected communication service based on the CS code, and using a processing resource of at least one identified service by said service code on at least a part of the communication path between the caller and the called party, said processing resource, or execution of the service selected using the service code CS being defined below. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the communication system offers the caller a unique secure communication service, mainly obtained by encrypting the communication data. In addition, the encryption service, the only quality of service management service offered here, is then indicated or controlled by inserting the number of the caller between two characters or between two characters Ce. For example, to call the subscriber whose telephone number is "0123456789", a string of ten digits, when the calling party dials the called subscriber and selects the encryption service of the called subscriber. communication data, the dialing resource on the calling terminal according to the invention then generates the complex number: `* 0123456789 * '. The complex number `* 0123456789 * then progresses on the path or communication path. It is first decoded by any party intervening on the communication path so that the presence of the two characters C * 'in front of and behind the string of digital characters is interpreted by the decoding part as the command of an encrypted communication. If the next path part is under the control of the decoding part, the latter then generates an encryption of the communication data associated with the complex number `* 01234556789 * 'and passes the data packets corresponding to the call to the called party in form. encrypted as it is known. Note that the telephone standards already know the composition of prefixes such as the call redirection service. Such a service allows for a given terminal to direct an incoming call to another number if the number of the given terminal, if it is called is busy or if it does not pick up. Thus, the subscriber who executes on a terminal whose call number is a numeric string X1, the complex number `* 21 * X2 # 'requests that the call to the number called' X1 'be diverted to the number d registered call X2.
[0010] This command can be canceled by the subscriber on the terminal whose call number is X1 by dialing the code '## 21 #'. The mechanism according to the invention is quite different, whether in the form of a prefix code, a suffix code or a combination of both, or that the service code is reduced to the '*' character. or the '#' character. Indeed, it is the number of the called party that the caller places in relation to the service code, and not another telephone number as in a call transfer service.
[0011] In order to distinguish the service quality management service code, such as an encryption of the communication, from a standard service code such as that of a call transfer, the resources of the invention use a means decoding which, upon detection of the complex number '* 01234567789 * first detect the first character' * '. This first character '*' could indicate a standard telephone service code as a call transfer. But the decoding means then counts the number of numeric characters following the first character As this number of numerical characters, limited by the second character '*' has a length at least equal to that of a called number, and not equal at the standard length of two digital characters of the normal or standard telephone service codes, the decoding means then produces for the party on the communication path which cooperates with the complex number decoding means two pieces of information: information indicating that the complex number controls an encryption of the communication data of the communication in progress between the caller and the called terminal designated by the telephone number '0123456789'; 2 °) the number of the called party itself '0123456789'. The part on the communication path that cooperates with the complex number decoding means then negotiates the remainder of the communication path to the called party with another communication part for the called party itself, the encryption of the communication data which is then executed in a known manner by each communication part. Note that the called party number may or may not also include a country extension which may be separated from the national number of the called party, or not, by a separator such as the string "00" or by one or more characters like '*' or this. In an exemplary embodiment, the caller chooses the number of the called party in his address book, implanted on his terminal or on his SIM card and he launches the application of secure communication. This application then generates the complex number '* 0123456789 * based on the caller's number' 0123456789 'selected by the caller in his own address book. The complex number is then sent on the communication network to the first communication part, as a router 7 in the case of the embodiment of FIG. 2, router 7 which participates in the service processing resource selected in FIG. using the CS service code included in the complex number of the call being progressed on the communication path. The router 7 or first communication part, equipped with the decoding means of the complex number described above, then applies with the aid of a suitable encryption means, known in the state of the art, encryption at all times. communication data. All other communication parts such as the last communication part 9 or router of the called terminal then execute the necessary encryptions and decryptions based on the information generated by their own means of decoding the complex number on the communication path. Thus in exemplary embodiments, the complex number of the invention can take the following forms: - Form 1: '* + <international prefix> <national number> *', - Form 2: '* 00 <international prefix> < national number> * ', - Form 3:' * <national prefix> <national number> * 'where: - Form 1 uses the box between two characters' *', but the first character '*' is followed by the character '+' which indicates that the following characters identify the international prefix in the character string denoted by '<international prefix>', followed by the number of the called party which is a national telephone number noted '<national number>'; - Form 2 is identical to Form 1 but in which the '+' character is replaced by the two-character string '00'; and - Form 3 is identical to Form 1 and Form 2, but the characters '+' or '00' have been omitted. In Figure 4, there is shown the implementation of the invention to a fragment of the communication path. The communication system of this embodiment provides a single service for securing communication between a caller and a called party. Securing is a quality of service management service that is provided in particular by encrypting the communication data. The calling terminal 5 comprises a resource already described to generate a complex number 7; 4 comprising the telephone number of the called party framed by two characters "*" or "#", said frame serving CS service code within the meaning of the invention. At least one communication portion 40 on the communication path includes decoding means 41 of the complex number for receiving as incoming communication path 45 the caller to the called party 11.
[0012] The decoding means 41 is provided with the means described above to determine that it is a service of encrypting the communication data for the call in progress which controls by means of a control signal 47 means encryption 42 for the communication path 46 exiting from the communication portion 40 to the next communication portion 44 or the called terminal 11. The communication portion 40 may be repeated several times over the communication path according to the communication path. total communication calculated by the communication system. It can only exist on the router 7 if the communication path is in one piece 8 (example described in Figure 2). It is understood that the receiving router 9 or the called terminal 11 (FIG. 2) may be the last communication part and they only need a decryption means for the encrypted communication. To describe the call progress mode in the general case, we will now describe a particular embodiment of the system of the invention shown in Figure 2.
[0013] Referring again to FIG. 2, the service select communication system by dialing mainly comprises a mobile phone 5 connected by a first link 6 to a router 7. The router 7 is connected by a plurality of selectable paths to a router 7. function of predetermined rules of routing as it is known. A second router 9 can be accessed by at least one of the plurality of selectable paths 8 and is connected by another link 10 to at least one other mobile phone 11, mobile type or otherwise. In particular, the called telephone can be connected directly to a communication network such as a terrestrial telephone network and the second router 9 is then replaced by a telephone exchange of known type. In one embodiment, the first link 6, and if necessary the second link 10, is a WiFi-type link that connects the calling telephone 5 to the telephone called 11. An implementation resource 4 of the present invention will now be described. numbering service on said resource for assigning a service code to be inserted in the called number. This CS code will be selected according to the choice by the subscriber of a quality of service determined from a list of choice of communication services. The implementation resource may comprise a software application loader and / or a preloaded SIM card 10 or a numbering subscription subscription means. The dial-up service call system therefore comprises a resource 4 for loading a software application for implementing on the calling telephone 5, and if necessary on the called telephone 11, at least a portion of the resources 1- 3 described in FIG. 1 so that the system of the invention comprises the resource 1 for assigning a service code CS to be inserted in the called number according to the choice by the subscriber a defined quality of service, the dialing resource 3 and the resource for selecting a called number 2. As has been described the calling subscriber selects the desired quality of service by selecting the CS service management code the quality of service and the called number and the call is initiated by the transmission of the combined number consisting of the concatenation of the CS code and the number of the called party. The first router 7 via the first link 6 receives the combined number and decodes it so that it then knows the quality of service management code CS and the called party number NA. The first router 7 using the code CS, determines the paths such as the path 8i which make it possible to ensure the quality of service selected by the caller when he places his call and the data flow coming from the calling telephone. 5 can then be processed by the first router 7.
[0014] Particularly, the first router 7 comprises a number of communication resources such as access to a satellite communications network such as INMARSAT, INMARSAT / BGAN, and it can also determine routing rules on other communication networks that access to the satellite communication network such as INMARSAT / BGAN, such as a terrestrial telephone network, one or more terrestrial telephone networks such as GSM, the Internet data transmission network, etc. The first router 7 then uses routing rules to ensure the quality of service controlled by the CS code. In a particular embodiment of the invention, as is known, the first router 7 is provided with means for detecting whether the caller 11 is capable of handling the call from the caller 5. In particular, depending on the service selected by the service quality management service CS code of the call being progressed the caller or part of the selected path 8i is unable to operate the call. The first router 7, or the system of the invention if a central management is provided, cooperates with a resource 13 for testing the progress of the call. An error can be detected by means of connected probes 14 on the communication paths 8, but also on the first router 7 and on the second router 9 or any other equipment relating to the called party 11. The connected probes 14 are in one embodiment constituted by software routines which detect internal error messages of the various communication networks or communication equipment and retransmit them according to predetermined rules.
[0015] When an error is thus detected, the resource 13 for testing the progress of the call generates an error message which is transmitted in particular to the caller 5 by a link 15 or by the called party 11 by a link 16 The error message issued by resource 13 may include identifying the cause of the error and / or simply notifying that the caller 11 can not be reached. In one embodiment, the called party 11 who can not be reached under the quality of service commanded by the CS code inserted by the caller 5 can however receive a message, for example relayed by his own telecommunication operator. The non-reachable call 11 may also receive a message edited by the access provider who manages the service selection communication system by the numbering according to the invention, in particular to offer him to subscribe to the service of quality management of the service. service provided by the system of the invention. In another embodiment, the call progress test resource 13 also includes means for notifying a communication party as the called party that the call being progressed is being generated by a call management service. the quality of service as an encryption of the communication. When a secure call attempt or more generally QoS management is conducted from a called terminal, it is often necessary that the called terminal, and often several intermediate communication parts, are provided with special resources to allow a to receive the call and, on the other hand, that the call is progressing. This is particularly the case when the call is a secure call by voice or encrypted text messages in particular. If the called terminal is not equipped with a decryption means or if an intermediate part does not make it possible to process the progress of an encrypted call, it is useful for the various communication parts and especially the caller and / or the called party are notified of the situation. The notification of this situation to the called party who does not have a decryption resource allows him especially to call his correspondent to warn him of the situation or to speak to a provider of access to the telephone network able to send him the necessary resources. The notification to the caller is also useful to warn him that the called party was unable to process his call. Particularly, a favorable situation is created when the telephone network provider registers in a database of registered users the users having telephone numbers and who have equipped with resources for training a complex number with management of the telephone network. the quality of service and other resources necessary for the implementation of the invention and described herein.
[0016] During the generation of the call, the access provider can identify whether the called number corresponds to a user subscribed to the desired quality of service management service, for example to secure the communication by encryption. He can then deduce a state of alert or notification to the various parties, and the caller and / or the called as described above. In the example described with reference to FIG. 2, the service selection communication system by dialing comprises at least one calling terminal, such as the mobile telephone 5, which is in a controlled access zone 12 such as the cockpit of an aircraft. In this case, a mobile phone network is not always available. The use of a local area network as first link 6 and a first router 7 having a connection to different communication networks, including one or more satellite networks, makes it possible to route a voice or data call to other networks. including a mobile or fixed telephony network so that it is possible to make calls from a mobile phone to any network, while using the communication services of the system of the invention, each of them enabling a given quality of service to be achieved, for at least one communications parameter comprising the data rate, the size of the communication packets, the encryption of the data on a given communication path.
[0017] In the encryption measures, a special QoS setting, or a QoS service that the CS code dialing option allows, it is intended to create or establish on all or part of the communication path one or more tunnels type VPN or the like. The realization of a tunnel amounts to using the Internet or another communication network, such as a satellite communication network, as a transmission medium using a "tunneling" protocol, that is to say encapsulating the data to be transmitted in encrypted form. This is called VPN to designate the network thus created artificially. This network is said to be virtual because it links two "physical" networks (the local networks constituted by the calling terminal and the called terminal) by an unreliable link (like the Internet communication network), and private because only the computers of the networks local authorities on both sides of the VPN can access data in the clear. In Figure 3, there is shown another embodiment of the calling party of the service selection communications system by the numbering according to the invention. The first communication part comprises the calling terminal 20, constituted by a mobile telephone 20 equipped with a WiFi radio frequency communication resource 23 for integrating into a WiFi local area network 24. The mobile telephone 20 plays the role of the caller 5 of Figure 2, while the WiFI 24 local network plays the role of the first link 6 of Figure 2. A WiFi avionics router 25 is also connected to the WiFi LAN 24 with its own WiFi modem 26 The WiFi avionics router 25 furthermore comprises at least one modem 30, preferably on a satellite communications network, for example of the INMARSAT / BGAN 31 type. The WiFi avionics router 25 may be an AviolP router of the SATCOM 1 TM brand. to the public documentation of which reference is made. It plays the role of the first router 7 of the system of the invention shown in FIG. 2. The mobile telephone 20 with WiFI modem 23 comprises a message generating circuit 21 which can comprise in particular a microphone-speaker assembly for the communication of the voice and keyboard set - screen for data communication, with associated software applications. The mobile telephone 20 then comprises the service quality management code CS insertion numbering resource which at least partially integrates the resources 1-3 described in particular with the help of FIG. 1, and whose use is described with the system of Figure 2. The communication initiated on the WiFi local network 24, is received by the WiFi modem 26 of the router 25. The data 32 transmitted by the mobile phone WiFi 20 are then decoded by a resource 27 decoder of CS quality of service selection codes. In the numbering sequence, the resource 27 then separates the CS code from the rest of the data 32 to send it 33 to a routing rule selection resource 28 according to the transmitted CS code 33 at its input. The routing rules determined by the code CS are then applied in the known manner to the modem 30, while the rest of the data 34 from the decoder 27 are passed to the data input 34 of the modem 30.
[0018] In one embodiment, when the CS code contains the selection of a data encryption service, the output 33 of the decoder 27 activates an encryption resource 29 of the communication initiated by the mobile telephone 20. The modem 30 is connected to at least one communication network 31, such as a satellite communication network INMARSAT / BGAN, so that the routing rules selected by the routing rule selection resource 28 can be applied to the data accessing the communication network 31 as well as to other potential communication networks to which it is connected by gateways as is known to generate the plurality of paths 8 described in Figure 2. In other embodiments, the caller and / or the called are not mobile phones, but terminals like computers, or control automata. Such terminals equip automatic devices such as drones or non-automatic such as air vehicles, space, sea or land, or land or sea machines. In particular, several components necessary to realize the main resources of the system of the invention are available in one or more communication standards, including UMA / GAN, 2G / 3G / 4G / 5G, IMS and / or SIP.
[0019] In one embodiment, the router 7, 9 comprises a Generic Access Network (GAN) system. In such a GAN system, the calling terminal is coupled via a WIFi link or the like with a module locally incorporating the GAN system. The latter then acts as a basic transmission station or BTS (Base Transmission Station) to connect to the global network or WAN by which the call will progress to the called terminal. It is then the GAN system that is programmed to implement the quality of service management service. In particular, an encryption service is for example offered to the subscriber who uses a calling terminal with a selection resource of a quality of service management service and to apply on the "free" part of the call progress, encryption - or other quality of service management service - to the called party.
[0020] Preferably, when the router 7 or 9 cooperates or is constituted by a GAN system, the calling and / or called terminal is a device of the UMA standard or the like. In the link between the phone and the GAN system, a first encrypted tunnel is implemented natively. To implement the invention, it is necessary to provide the UMA phone with a software application to produce the complex number controlling the security of the communication. When the complex number is generated by the native numbering resource, the VPN tunnel with the GAN system is initiated and the communication begins with a secure path by encryption as is known. When the call progresses, in particular between the GAN system and the rest of the path, an encryption resource is in turn activated to continue the secure communication according to the teaching of the invention and so on until the called party. As has been described above, the invention can be implemented in all kinds of communication networks, since, for example, an encryption means can be activated by means of decoding the complex number formed according to the invention, at any part of communication on the communication path between the caller and the called party. The same applies when the complex numbering applied according to the teaching of the invention controls a determined quality of service management service from the calling terminal. In the embodiment just described, the communication system includes a resource inserted into the communication path during the progress of the call to the caller so as to apply the service determined by the management code of the caller. service inserted into the called number. The first link 6 and / or the second link 10 have been described with the WiFi standard. Other links are possible, including optical fibers, and can implement VPN type tunnels to improve data security.
