Method, system and devices for processing messages in multimedia messaging service
View Patent ↗A method for processing messages in MMS, which includes: after receiving a message from a user side, an MMSC notifying a home Value Added Service Applications Server corresponding to receivers of the message to process the message according to each identifier, which is carried in the message, of the receiver that belongs to the Value Added Service Applications Server and that is carried in the message. A system for processing messages in the MMS is further disclosed. By adopting the technique solution provided in the invention, it could successfully implement the message service of a terminal sending messages to multiple receivers that belong to the same Value Added Service Applications Server. Moreover, it could further reduce the message flux between the MMSC and the Value Added Service Applications server so as to reduce the occupancy of the communication resources, increase the efficiency and save the cost.
1. A method, executed by a Multimedia Messaging Service Center (MMSC) in a network, for processing a message targeting multiple receivers belonging to one or more Value Added Service Application Servers (VASASs), the VASASs used to provide value added services for a Multiple Messaging Service (MMS), the method comprising:
receiving the message from a user side equipment;
determining that the message indicates a plurality of receivers belonging to a number of VASASs;
generating copies of the message according to the number of VASASs: and
delivering the copies of the message to the number of VASASs, respectively;
wherein the MMSC determines the number of VASASs according to the Value Added Service Identifier (VASID) and the Service Code indicated in the message.
2. A Multimedia Messaging Service Center (MMSC) in a network for processing a message targeting multiple receivers belonging to one or more Value Added Service Application Servers (VASASs), the VASASs used to provide value added services for a Multiple Messaging Service (MMS), the MMSC comprising:
a memory;
a processor coupled to the memory, the processor configured to:
receive the message from a user side equipment;
determine that the message indicates a plurality of receivers belonging to a number of VASASs;
generate copies of the message according to the number of VASAS; and
deliver the copies of the message to the number of VASASs, respectively;
wherein the MMSC determines the number of VASASs according to the Value Added Service Identifier (VASID) and the Service Code indicated in the message.
