Abstract

A session initiation protocol (SIP) terminal, a method and system for reporting status thereof, and an SIP server are provided. The present invention relates to the field of communications, and is capable of enabling the SIP terminal to initiatively report status information to the SIP server, thereby ensuring a normal connection of an SIP call. The method includes: detecting whether status of the SIP terminal changes; generating status reporting information when the status of the SIP terminal changes; and sending current status of the SIP terminal to the SIP server in the form of the status reporting information. The present invention is mainly applied to the SIP technology.

Claims

1. A method for reporting status of a session initiation protocol, SIP, terminal, comprising:

detecting whether the status of the SIP terminal changes;

generating status reporting information when the status of the SIP terminal changes; and

sending current status of the SIP terminal to an SIP server in the form of the status reporting information.

2. The method for reporting status of an SIP terminal according to claim 1, wherein the generating the status reporting information comprises:

converting the current status of the SIP terminal into a corresponding SIP event; and

bearing the SIP event by utilizing an event bearer message body in a reporting message to obtain the status reporting information.

3. The method for reporting status of an SIP terminal according to claim 2, wherein the event bearer message body is a supplementary call service control message body.

4. The method for reporting status of an SIP terminal according to claim 1, further comprising:

receiving a status reporting response message sent by the SIP server.

5. A method for processing reported status of a session initiation protocol, SIP, terminal, comprising:

receiving status reporting information reported by the SIP terminal; and

updating the status of the SIP terminal according to the status reporting information.

6. The method for processing reported status of an SIP terminal according to claim 5, wherein the updating the status of the SIP terminal according to the status reporting information comprises:

parsing the status reporting information to obtain status information of the SIP terminal; and

modifying current status of the SIP terminal into status corresponding to the obtained status information.

7. A session initiation protocol, SIP, terminal, comprising:

a detecting unit, adapted to detect whether status of the SIP terminal changes;

an information generating unit, adapted to generate status reporting information when the status of the SIP terminal changes; and

a transceiver unit, adapted to send current status of the SIP terminal to an SIP server in the form of the status reporting information.

8. The SIP terminal according to claim 7, wherein the information generating unit comprises:

a converting module, adapted to convert the current status of the SIP terminal into a corresponding SIP event; and

an information generating module, adapted to bear the SIP event by utilizing an event bearer message body in a reporting message to obtain a status reporting message.

9. The SIP terminal according to claim 7, wherein

the transceiver unit is further adapted to receive a status reporting response message sent by the SIP server.

10. A session initiation protocol, SIP, server, comprising:

a receiving unit, adapted to receive status reporting information reported by the SIP terminal; and

a status updating unit, adapted to update status of the SIP terminal according to the status reporting information.

11. The SIP server according to claim 10, wherein the status updating unit comprises:

a parsing module, adapted to parse the status reporting message to obtain status information of the SIP terminal; and

a modifying module, adapted to modify current status of the SIP terminal into status corresponding to the status information obtained by the parsing module.
