Abstract

A system and method of enabling callers to generate and use unique alphanumeric name or names appended to a domain name or use as domain name itself, when paired to the destination device, to enable a calling device to communicate with a destination device over the internet without dialing the destination device common mobile number.

Claims

1. A system for automatically pairing a unique and assignable alphanumeric name to any IP enabled mobile devices (4) comprising:

a name generator server (16), name number database (18), call name server (14), and destination device (4) that are all interconnected through a network;

the provisioner (2) of a destination device (4) selects a custom alphanumeric name (10) and enters it via Web Portal of the name generator server (16);

a call name server (14) will validate with the name number database (18) if the selected alphanumeric name (10) is existing in a name number database (18).

if the alphanumeric name (10) is unique, the name generator server (16) will reply to enter the number of the destination device (4) and the alphanumeric name (10).

a confirmation message will indicate successful pairing of the alphanumeric name (10) and the number of the destination device (4) and will show a call link (8).

2. The system as claimed in claim 1, comprising:

the name generator server (16) to append the alphanumeric name (10) to an assigned domain name either in the beginning, at the end of the domain name or just the domain name itself, pair them and store these information to the name number database (18).

3. The system as claimed in claim 1 comprising:

allowing the provisioner (2) to add custom image and custom video during the pairing that can be integrated to a user interface page so that the caller (6) can add additional information to identify the destination device'"'"'s (4) profile. That this information will be saved as an additional information to the name generator server (16) of the profile of the destination device (4).

5. The method as claimed in claim 2, comprising:

notifying the destination device (4) by the call name server (14) that an alphanumeric name (10) has been associated with it in the name number database (18).

7. The system as claimed in claim 3 further comprising:

the call page can display and insert custom video or image associated with the destination device (4) to further advertise specific information for the caller (6) to identify the identity of the destination device (4) prior to proceeding to dial the destination device (4).

8. The system as claimed in claim 1 comprising:

the name generator server (16) also accepts inputs from other connected applications coupled via any standard data connection or API that can also send and pass the same information such as alphanumeric name (10) and other information that needs to be paired and stored in the system as additional provisioning command from third party devices or systems, along for the generation of unique call link (8) for the third party applications.

9. The system as claimed in claim 1, comprising:

the call name server (14) is a web server with a registered domain name address and public IP address or addresses that can be accessed by the calling device (20) from any Internet connection and having similar main domain name address as the name generator server (16).

10. The system as claimed in claim 3, comprising:

the name generator server (16) to allow provisioner (2) to activate or deactivate the user interface display so that the caller (6), after entering the call link (8), have a direct call function to the destination device (4) through the Video and/or image in the user interface page before connecting to the destination device (4).

11. The system as claimed in claim 2 comprising:

allowing the provisioner (2) to add custom image and custom video during the pairing that can be integrated to a user interface page so that the caller (6) can add additional information to identify the destination device'"'"'s (4) profile. That this information will be saved as an additional information to the name generator server (16) of the profile of the destination device (4).

4. A method for pairing an alphanumeric name (10) with a destination device (4) callable number comprising:

accessing the name generator server (16) by the provisioner (2);

inputting the callable number of the destination device (4) by the provisioner (2);

inputting the desired alphanumeric name (10) by the provisioner (2);

verifying the availability of the alphanumeric name (10) with the name number database (18) by the name generator server (16);

associating the callable number of the destination device (4) with the alphanumeric name (10) by the name number database (18); and

generating the call links (8) based on the assigned domain name and the alphanumeric name by the name number database (18).

6. The method as claimed in claim 4, comprising:

allowing a caller (6) to enter the name identity of a caller (6) to the portal before the call name server (14) connects the calling device (20) to the destination device (4) to identify the caller (6) in the system and sending this information to the destination device (4) either through number translation or any other means to identify the caller (6) based from the data entered for the name of the caller (6).
