E911 BACKHAUL ROUTING TESTS REMOTE FROM COVERAGE AREA - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240015535 titled 'E911 BACKHAUL ROUTING TESTS REMOTE FROM COVERAGE AREA
Simplified Explanation
The disclosed technology is about testing voice connection routing over 911 circuits as if voice calls originated from an e911 device in coverage areas of cell tower locations, without the need for a physical presence of the e911 device in each coverage area.
- A remote test agent audio bridge and tester initiates a call to a test user with a specific phone number.
- A media bridge is created to relay audio between the test user and the remote test agent.
- An emulation of an e911-compliant mobile device is performed to originate a call to a 911 operator.
- The audio exchange between the first call and the second call is relayed over the media bridge.
- An evaluation of the verbal exchange is logged.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Testing the voice connection routing of 911 circuits without the need for physical e911 devices in each coverage area.
- Evaluating the quality and effectiveness of voice calls made to 911 operators.
- Simulating different origination locations to test the coverage and reliability of cell towers.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Eliminates the need for physical e911 devices in each coverage area, reducing costs and logistical challenges.
- Provides a controlled and standardized method for testing voice connection routing over 911 circuits.
- Allows for the evaluation of the verbal exchange between the test user and the 911 operator.
Benefits of this technology:
- Cost savings by eliminating the need for physical e911 devices in each coverage area.
- Improved efficiency and accuracy in testing voice connection routing over 911 circuits.
- Enhanced ability to evaluate the quality and effectiveness of emergency calls made to 911 operators.
Original Abstract Submitted
the disclosed technology teaches testing voice connection routing over 911 circuits as if voice calls originated from an e911 device in coverage areas of cell tower locations, without requiring a physical presence of the e911 device in each coverage area. a remote test agent audio bridge and tester originates a first call to a test user with a first phone number, creates a media bridge, emulates an e911-compliant mobile device to originate a second call to a 911 operator, relays audio over the media bridge as a verbal exchange between the first and the second calls, and logs an evaluation of the verbal exchange. the emulation includes spoofing a call origination from an origination location being tested, the spoofed origination location being within coverage of an originating cell.
