technical field

The present invention relates to a communication device information collection technology, in particular to a subscription processing method and system for a presentation system that collects and distributes presentation information of a communication device.

Background technique

The presentation business system is a system that collects and distributes presentation information to meet various control needs. Presence information mainly includes: 1. Personal presence information issued by a natural person presentity. For example, the natural person can use mobile phone applications or computer applications to publish personal presence information. For example, the presence information can be status information, including the The state of the communication channel of the application program, such as the VoIP state, or the wireless push-to-talk state; 2. The presence information released by the non-natural person presentity, for example, a radio station can release the song that is currently broadcasting, and another example is a call center. Information on call congestion status; 3. Presence information generated by network components belonging to natural person presentities, for example, whether a natural person presentity is registered in the network; 4. Self-presence information released by network components, such as its own operating status parameters, etc. ; 5. Presentation information published by the application server and the application program, such as business information.

FIG. 1 is a structural diagram of an existing presentation system. Referring to Figure 1, the presentation system mainly consists of the following devices:

Presentity client or application (Presentity) 11: generally referred to as a Presentity, is a source of presence information. When its presence information changes, it actively sends a PUBLISH message to the presence server 12 to publish the presence information. After the presence server 12 processes the published message information (including synthesis, authorization, filtering, etc.), it sends a notification (NOTIFY) message to all subscriber clients 13 subscribing to the user's presence information.

Presence Server (Presence Server) 12: for receiving the subscription request (SUBSCRIBE) message of the subscriber client 13, and judging the subscription result by matching according to the subscription authorization strategy preset by the subscribed presentity 11; The Publish (PUBLISH) message is processed according to the preset policies of the presentity/subscriber (such as content authorization policy, filtering policy, etc.), and finally publishes the presence information to the subscriber client 13 through a notification message.

Subscriber client (Watcher) 13: for subscribing to the presence information of the presentity 11 and receiving the presence information from the presence server 12.

Presentation information management server 14: this figure is the presentation information XML document management server (XDMS, XML Document Management Server) that adopts extensible language (XML) file to manage, certainly also available database is managed; This presentation information management server 14 is used for Save the presence information of the management presentity, such as authorization list, such as subscription authorization list, content authorization list, group list, etc.

Fig. 2 is an interactive flowchart of the existing presentation system. As shown in Figure 2, the process includes:

Steps 21 to 22, the presentity A pre-configures some subscription settings on the presence server, such as setting subscription authorization policies, content authorization policies, and so on. The presence server updates the settings of presentity A.

Step 23: Subscriber B initiates a subscription request (SUBSCRIBE) message to the presence server, requesting to subscribe to the presence information of presentity A.

Step 24: The presence server matches the subscription request of subscriber B according to the subscription settings, and judges whether the subscription request meets the requirements of the subscription settings. If yes, the subscription is successful; otherwise, the subscription fails.

Step 25. After the subscription is successful, the presentity A sends a PUBLISH message to the presence server when the presence information changes, which carries the presence information.

Step 26, the presence server sends a notification (NOTIFY) message to the subscriber B after receiving the publishing message from the presentity A, which carries the presence information published by the presentity A.

During the subscription process, the subscription information needs to be stored and managed to facilitate the user's reference. The subscription information includes information such as: subscription record, contact information of a friend in the subscriber's friend list, subscription reason, subscription time and other information. However, in the current technical solution, only the subscriber's subscription information can be stored on the subscriber client side, but the function of storing and managing the subscriber's subscription information on the network side cannot be realized, which causes a lot of inconvenience to the subscriber. Two inconveniences stand out in particular:

1) In some cases, subscribers want the presence server to help record all subscription records (regardless of subscription success or failure) in a certain period of time so that subscribers can obtain lost information from the presence server when they need it in the future, but currently The rendering system cannot provide this functionality. For example, a user uses a computer in an Internet cafe to log in to his or her online account and subscribes to the presence information of a certain presentity. However, when the user uses a computer at home to log in to the same online account, the subscription information cannot be obtained because the subscription information is not stored. lead to inconvenient use.

2) When subscribers use certain services, because they are not familiar with the services and do not understand the operation process, they often cause subscription information (including subscription records but not limited to) to be lost but cannot be retrieved due to misoperation, which reduces the user's experience.
