All
calls coming to this Service Number are forwarded
to Missed Call Notification system. MCN system
receives and stamps the related data for the
calling number as well as the date and time.
The required announcement is played to the calling
party. This can be one of the existing announcements
(like “the subscriber is out of coverage
area”) or the operator can add a new announcement
specifically for this purpose.
As a result
the person who has forwarded his call to MCN
number will receive an SMS message informing
the subscriber about the calling number, how
many calls received, date and time of the call.
The format of the text message is configurable.
When
a new call arrives to the same subscriber, MCN
first checks the status of the previously sent
SMS, if it has not been delivered yet (waiting
in SMSC buffer), it removes the previous record
and updates the information and sends a new
record. By this way more than one call record
can be included in a single short message.
