一种基于MMS业务的音频消息和视频消息业务实现方法A method for realizing audio message and video message service based on MMS service

本发明涉及一种无线终端基于MMS(Multimedia Message Service，多媒体消息)的终端音频消息和视频消息业务解决方案，尤其涉及WCDMA，GSM，CDMA，TDSCDMA等无线终端的音频消息和视频消息业务解决方案。The present invention relates to a kind of terminal audio message and video message service solution based on MMS (Multimedia Message Service, multimedia message) of a wireless terminal, especially relate to WCDMA, GSM, CDMA, TDSCDMA etc. wireless terminal audio message and video message service solution.

背景技术Background technique

目前多媒体消息(MMS)对于广大移动终端使用用户来讲并不陌生。多媒体消息(MMS)作为短消息(SMS)的进一步发展，其中不仅可以包含文字信息，还可以包含图象、声音、视频等多种媒体信息。At present, multimedia messaging (MMS) is no stranger to the majority of mobile terminal users. Multimedia message (MMS) is a further development of short message (SMS), which can contain not only text information, but also various media information such as images, sounds, and videos.

MMS业务虽然在给用户的业务表现上类似于SMS业务，但在实际的实现方法上采用的是WAP的处理流程，由接收方主动从多媒体消息中心(MMSC)取信息，类似于WAP的浏览或下载方式。Although the MMS service is similar to the SMS service in terms of service performance for users, the actual implementation method adopts the WAP processing flow, and the receiver actively obtains information from the multimedia message center (MMSC), which is similar to WAP browsing or download method.

多媒体消息的应用按照通信实体的不同可划分为三类：The application of multimedia message can be divided into three categories according to the different communication entities:

终端到终端：这种方式是多媒体消息应用的最普遍的方式。End-to-end: This method is the most common method for multimedia messaging applications.

终端到网络某应用：用户通过终端发送多媒体消息到一个网络应用。Terminal to a network application: the user sends a multimedia message to a network application through the terminal.

网络到终端：多媒体业务也可以由网络某应用发起，应用系统把多媒体消息发送到移动终端，网络应用作为多媒体中心的外部增值应用。Network-to-terminal: Multimedia services can also be initiated by an application on the network. The application system sends multimedia messages to the mobile terminal, and the network application acts as an external value-added application of the multimedia center.

音频业务、视频业务和消息业务一直是移动通讯的热点，如何最大潜力的挖掘用户对这些业务的使用频率，开发这些业务的综合使用方式一直是运营商研究的方向。Audio services, video services, and message services have always been hot spots in mobile communications. How to maximize the frequency of use of these services by users and develop the comprehensive use of these services has always been the research direction of operators.

在此之前，虽然有很多终端具有了录音、录像功能，并且用户可以将录成的音频文件和视频文件作为MMS附件发送给对方，但是用户看到的始终还是纯粹的MMS消息，没有将MMS同用户音频业务和视频业务完全的结合起来。Prior to this, although many terminals had audio recording and video recording functions, and users could send the recorded audio files and video files to the other party as MMS attachments, what users saw was still pure MMS messages. User audio services and video services are completely combined.

发明内容Contents of the invention

具体实施方式Detailed ways

MMS业务系统网络结构详见附图1。The network structure of the MMS service system is shown in Figure 1 in detail.

本发明所述的基于MMS业务的终端音频消息和视频消息的传输系统包括以下组成部分：The transmission system of the terminal audio message and the video message based on the MMS service of the present invention comprises the following components:

无线承载网络：本发明对于无线网络制式并没有具体要求，只要支持MMS业务的无线承载网络都可以应用。无线承载网络可以是2G/2.5G网络，也可以是3G网络。网络制式可以包括GSM，WCDMA，TDSCDMA，CDMA等。Wireless bearer network: the present invention has no specific requirements on the wireless network standard, and any wireless bearer network that supports MMS services can be applied. The wireless bearer network can be a 2G/2.5G network or a 3G network. Network standards can include GSM, WCDMA, TDSCDMA, CDMA, etc.

WAP网关：对于WAP网关没有特殊需求，只要支持MMS业务即可。WAP gateway: There is no special requirement for the WAP gateway, as long as it supports the MMS service.

MMSC：它是整个多媒体消息系统的核心，它主要负责存储并处理进出MMSC的消息，完成在网络上发送由文本、声音、图片及其他媒体格式组成的多媒体消息。MMSC不但能够完成终端到终端的业务需求，还能够在终端和EMAIL系统以及外部增值应用系统之间传送消息并产生相应的计费信息记录。MMSC: It is the core of the entire multimedia messaging system. It is mainly responsible for storing and processing messages entering and leaving the MMSC, and sending multimedia messages composed of text, sound, pictures and other media formats on the network. MMSC can not only fulfill the terminal-to-terminal service requirements, but also transmit messages between the terminal and the EMAIL system and external value-added application systems and generate corresponding billing information records.

移动终端：要求终端支持MMS功能，并且有专用的音频消息和视频消息用户接口。Mobile terminal: The terminal is required to support the MMS function and have a dedicated audio message and video message user interface.

从硬件的角度讲，基于MMS业务的终端音频消息和视频消息业务方案不需要增加任何硬件配置。From a hardware point of view, the MMS-based terminal audio message and video message service solutions do not require any additional hardware configuration.

需要增加的软件模块包括：The software modules that need to be added include:

终端侧，需要在MMS模块基础之上，增加音频消息用户接口和视频消息用户接口。并且需要对MMS协议栈按照本方案要求进行更改。On the terminal side, an audio message user interface and a video message user interface need to be added on the basis of the MMS module. And the MMS protocol stack needs to be changed according to the requirements of this solution.

网络侧，MMSC需要对接收到的MMS进行判断，如果是音频消息或者视频消息，需要按照本方案在向被叫终端发送通知消息时增加相关标识。On the network side, the MMSC needs to judge the received MMS. If it is an audio message or a video message, it needs to add a relevant identifier when sending a notification message to the called terminal according to this solution.

音频消息和视频消息的标识方法：How to identify audio and video messages:

音频消息和视频消息是MMS的扩展，主要是传递发送终端录制的音频文件。发送终端采用MMS承载音频消息和视频消息，并且用特定的标识来区别于一般的MMS消息。Audio messages and video messages are extensions of MMS, and mainly transmit audio files recorded by the sending terminal. The sending terminal uses MMS to carry audio messages and video messages, and uses a specific identifier to distinguish it from general MMS messages.

本方案中采用OMA MMS协议中的请求消息来说明音频消息和视频消息的标识定义。对于采用OMA MMS协议，采用的请求消息为：In this solution, the request message in the OMA MMS protocol is used to illustrate the identification definition of audio messages and video messages. For the OMA MMS protocol, the request message used is:

发送终端向多媒体中心发送的请求消息为：M-Send.reqThe request message sent by the sending terminal to the multimedia center is: M-Send.req

多媒体中心向所述接收终端发送的请求消息为：M-Notification.indThe request message sent by the multimedia center to the receiving terminal is: M-Notification.ind

分别对应3GPP MMS协议中的请求消息：Corresponding to the request message in the 3GPP MMS protocol:

MM1-submit.reqMM1-submit.req

MM1-notification.ind。MM1-notification.ind.

音频消息和视频消息的标识定义如下：The identifiers for audio messages and video messages are defined as follows:

发送终端需要对M-Send.req的消息类型(Message class)信息单元进行赋值，定义标识为音频或者视频消息，并且将Message class信息单元要求为必选项目。The sending terminal needs to assign a value to the message type (Message class) information unit of M-Send.req, define the identification as an audio or video message, and require the Message class information unit as a mandatory item.

对M-Notification.ind的Message class信息单元进行赋值，使其与对应的M-Send.req的Message class信息单元保持一致。Assign a value to the Message class information unit of M-Notification.ind to make it consistent with the corresponding Message class information unit of M-Send.req.

例如对于Message class信息单元的标识内容可以如下定义：For example, the identification content of the Message class information unit can be defined as follows:

xxx是000到999之间的数字，用于细分音频消息和视频消息的应用类型，对于个人发起的音频消息或者视频消息定义为000，并且作为默认值，其它的001-999可以后续作为其它业务应用，如广告，歌曲，运营商业务通知信息等。xxx is a number between 000 and 999, which is used to subdivide the application types of audio messages and video messages. For audio messages or video messages initiated by individuals, it is defined as 000, and as the default value, other 001-999 can be used as others Business applications, such as advertisements, songs, operator business notification information, etc.

此处无法将所有参数定义和应用都一一列举，凡是利用此参数区分实现音频消息和视频消息的应用都涵盖在此专利范围之内。It is not possible to list all parameter definitions and applications here, and all applications that use this parameter to distinguish between audio messages and video messages are covered within the scope of this patent.

下面将结合附图及实施例对本发明的技术方案进行更详细的说明。The technical solution of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments.

图2为基于MMS业务的音频消息和视频消息的实现方法，其包括以下步骤：Fig. 2 is the realization method based on the audio message of MMS service and video message, and it comprises the following steps:

基于MMS业务的音频消息和视频消息的实现方法，可以从两条途径进行描述：用户发送流程和用户接收流程。The implementation method of audio message and video message based on MMS service can be described in two ways: user sending process and user receiving process.

音频消息和视频消息的发送流程图，详见图3。For the flow chart of sending audio messages and video messages, see Figure 3 for details.

步骤1：用户使用发送终端提供的专用菜单或者专用键触发发起音频消息和视频消息的流程。Step 1: The user triggers the process of initiating an audio message and a video message by using a special menu or a special key provided by the sending terminal.

步骤2：如果用户选择发起音频消息，则直接进入录音界面；若选择发起视频消息，则直接进入录像界面。在录音、录像界面中用户可以通过专用菜单或专用键选择开始，暂停，放弃、完毕等操作。Step 2: If the user chooses to initiate an audio message, it will directly enter the recording interface; if it chooses to initiate a video message, it will directly enter the recording interface. In the interface of recording and video recording, the user can select operations such as start, pause, give up, and end through the special menu or special keys.

如果用户选择放弃，则退回IDLE(待机)状态。If the user chooses to give up, return to the IDLE (standby) state.

如果录音或者录像完毕，则进入步骤3。If the recording or video recording is completed, go to step 3.

步骤3：用户可以选择直接发送该音频消息或者视频消息，或将该音频消息或者视频消息保存为草稿，以后再发送。用户也可以选择对录制完成的音频消息或者视频消息进行预览。如对预览结果不满意，可以选择放弃该消息，返回IDLE界面。Step 3: The user can choose to send the audio message or video message directly, or save the audio message or video message as a draft and send it later. The user can also choose to preview the recorded audio message or video message. If you are not satisfied with the preview result, you can choose to abandon the message and return to the IDLE interface.

步骤4：如果用户选择发送该消息，则应输入标题，接收人号码等(输入方式同MMS的输入方式)，然后通过点击发送键确认发送。Step 4: If the user chooses to send the message, he should input the title, recipient number, etc. (the input method is the same as that of MMS), and then confirm sending by clicking the send button.

步骤5：该音频消息或视频消息被确认发送后，其底层的封装方式同MMS。因为一次只能发送一个音频文件或者视频文件，所以该MMS只需要创建一个幻灯片(SLIDE)。此时发送终端需要对M-Send.req的Message class字段进行赋值，来说明此消息为音频消息或者视频消息。Step 5: After the audio message or video message is confirmed to be sent, its underlying encapsulation method is the same as that of MMS. Since only one audio file or video file can be sent at a time, the MMS only needs to create one slideshow (SLIDE). At this time, the sending terminal needs to assign a value to the Message class field of M-Send.req to indicate that the message is an audio message or a video message.

步骤6：按照MMS的发送方式，完成发送流程。其它异常处理完全按照MMS的异常处理流程。Step 6: Complete the sending process according to the sending method of MMS. Other exception handling is completely in accordance with the exception handling process of MMS.

音频消息和视频消息的接收流程图，详见图4。For the flow chart of receiving audio messages and video messages, see Figure 4 for details.

步骤1：多媒体消息中心根据收到的M-Send.req的Message class字段来判断此消息是否为音频消息或者视频消息。如果是音频消息或者视频消息，则在M-notification.ind的Message class信息单元中添加相同的信息后，将该请求消息发送给接收终端。其它流程与普通MMS相同。Step 1: The multimedia message center judges whether the message is an audio message or a video message according to the Message class field of the received M-Send.req. If it is an audio message or a video message, after adding the same information in the Message class information unit of M-notification.ind, the request message is sent to the receiving terminal. Other processes are the same as ordinary MMS.

步骤2：当接收终端接收到M-notification.ind后，需要对其中的Messageclass信息单元进行判断。如果是普通的MMS则按照普通MMS进行处理。如果判断为音频消息或者视频消息，则按照以下步骤进行处理。Step 2: After receiving the M-notification.ind, the receiving terminal needs to judge the Messageclass information unit therein. If it is an ordinary MMS, it will be processed as an ordinary MMS. If it is judged to be an audio message or a video message, it will be processed according to the following steps.

步骤3：对于音频消息或者视频消息，接收终端可以向用户询问是否下载该音频消息或者视频消息。用户可以选择下载，或者稍后手动下载。Step 3: For an audio message or a video message, the receiving terminal may ask the user whether to download the audio message or video message. Users can choose to download, or download manually at a later time.

根据运营商的不同要求，此处也可以不向用户给出询问提示，而是直接下载音频消息或者视频消息到接收终端上。According to different requirements of the operator, the user may not be given an inquiry prompt here, but the audio message or video message may be directly downloaded to the receiving terminal.

步骤4：如果用户选择下载该音频消息或者视频消息，在其下载完毕后，接收终端将提示用户已成功接收该消息，是否立即播放。如果用户选择播放，则直接播放该音频消息或者视频消息。在播放过程中用户可以选择暂停和退出播放。退出播放后，如用户愿意的话仍可以重新播放该音频消息或者视频消息。Step 4: If the user chooses to download the audio message or video message, after the download is complete, the receiving terminal will prompt the user whether the message has been successfully received and whether to play it immediately. If the user chooses to play, the audio message or video message is played directly. During playback, users can choose to pause and exit playback. After exiting the playback, the audio message or video message can still be played again if the user wishes.

当然，本发明还可有其他多种实施例，在不背离本发明精神及其实质的情况下，熟悉本领域的技术人员当可根据本发明作出各种相应的改变和变形，但这些相应的改变和变形都应属于本发明所附的权利要求的保护范围。Of course, the present invention can also have other various embodiments, and those skilled in the art can make various corresponding changes and deformations according to the present invention without departing from the spirit and essence of the present invention, but these corresponding Changes and deformations should belong to the scope of protection of the appended claims of the present invention.
