SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPTIMIZATION OF MULTI-PARTY CALLS IN ASATELLITE NETWORK

摘要

A telecommunications system and method is disclosed for optimizing multi-party calls within a satellite network. This can be accomplished by the Mobile Switching Center (MSC) that the subscriber is currently registered in receiving a multi-party request from the subscriber and determining the most optimal MSC for the given multi-party call. The subscriber can then be reregistered in the most optimal MSC, and either the subscriber or the optimal MSC can set up the entire multi-party call. Alternatively, the subscriber can be re-registered in the optimal MSC, which then sets up the call to the first party of the multi-party call. Thereafter, the subscriber can set up the rest of the multi-party call.
