METHOD AND NETWORK FOR PROVIDING SERVICE BLENDING TO A SUBSCRIBER

摘要

A method and communication network (350) for providing a subscriber with a blend of services of the communication network delivered to the subscriber through a telephone (304) and services delivered to the subscriber through a TV delivery system (300) in communication with the network. Upon receipt of a message from a calling party, a service broker function (355) may be configured to execute service package information (352) associated with services of the TV delivery system subscription to include obtaining and delivering caller ID information (320, 320') of the calling party. The service broker function may be configured to alter the message request to generate a modified message request in respect to information affecting alerting of the subscriber's phone. The modified message is sent to the subscriber's phone so that, while information of the calling party is displayed on the TV delivery system, alerting of the phone is modified.
