Short message processing method and relevant system
First Claim
1. A short message processing method, comprising:
- sending, by a calling terminal, a short message service (SMS)-submit message to either a mobile switching center (MSC) or a service general packet radio service support node (SGSN), wherein the SMS-submit message carries a session initiation protocol (SIP) uniform resource identifier (URI) of a called terminal and an indication that the called terminal does not have a mobile station international Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)/Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) number (MSISDN), wherein the SIP URI is an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem Public User Identity (IMPU) of the called terminal, wherein the called terminal does not have the MSISDN, wherein the indication is a value that indicates to the MSC or the SGSN that the called terminal does not have the MSISDN, wherein the SMS-submit message is received by either the MSC or the SGSN, and wherein the SMS-submit message is then sent to an SMS-service center (SMS-SC) via an SMS-interworking mobile switching center (SMS-IWMSC);
sending, by the SMS-SC, to an SMS-gateway mobile switching center (SMS-GMSC), an SMS-deliver message and the indication that the called terminal does not have an MSISDN, wherein the SMS-deliver message carries the SIP URI of the called terminal;
sending, by the SMS-GMSC, the indication and a Forward Short Message to an Internet protocol-short message-gateway (IP-SM-GW), wherein the Forward Short Message carries the SIP URI of the called terminal;
acquiring, by the IP-SM-GW, the SIP URI of the called terminal from the Forward Short Message according to the indication; and
sending, by the IP-SM-GW, an SIP Message to the called terminal,wherein a request URI of the SIP Message is the SIP URI of the called terminal.

Abstract
A short message processing method and a relevant system. In one embodiment, a short message service (SMS)-submit message sent by a calling terminal to a mobile switching center (MSC) or service general packet radio service (GPRS) carries an indication that a called terminal does not have an MSISDN, and the SMS-submit message carries a session initiation protocol (SIP) uniform resource identifier (URI) of the called terminal, so that the calling terminal is capable of sending the indication and the SIP URI of the called terminal to an SMS-service center (SMS-SC) via the MSC or SGSN and an SMS-interworking MSC (SMS-IWMSC), and the SMS-SC implements short message communications with the called terminal via an SMS-GMSC and an Internet protocol (IP) short message-gateway (IP-SM-GW).

1. A short message processing method, comprising:
-
sending, by a calling terminal, a short message service (SMS)-submit message to either a mobile switching center (MSC) or a service general packet radio service support node (SGSN), wherein the SMS-submit message carries a session initiation protocol (SIP) uniform resource identifier (URI) of a called terminal and an indication that the called terminal does not have a mobile station international Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)/Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) number (MSISDN), wherein the SIP URI is an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem Public User Identity (IMPU) of the called terminal, wherein the called terminal does not have the MSISDN, wherein the indication is a value that indicates to the MSC or the SGSN that the called terminal does not have the MSISDN, wherein the SMS-submit message is received by either the MSC or the SGSN, and wherein the SMS-submit message is then sent to an SMS-service center (SMS-SC) via an SMS-interworking mobile switching center (SMS-IWMSC); sending, by the SMS-SC, to an SMS-gateway mobile switching center (SMS-GMSC), an SMS-deliver message and the indication that the called terminal does not have an MSISDN, wherein the SMS-deliver message carries the SIP URI of the called terminal; sending, by the SMS-GMSC, the indication and a Forward Short Message to an Internet protocol-short message-gateway (IP-SM-GW), wherein the Forward Short Message carries the SIP URI of the called terminal; acquiring, by the IP-SM-GW, the SIP URI of the called terminal from the Forward Short Message according to the indication; and sending, by the IP-SM-GW, an SIP Message to the called terminal, wherein a request URI of the SIP Message is the SIP URI of the called terminal. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)

10. A short message processing method, comprising:
-
sending, by a calling terminal, a short message service (SMS)-submit message to either a mobile switching center (MSC) or a service general packet radio service support node (SGSN), wherein the SMS-submit message carries a mobile station international Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)/Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) number (MSISDN) of a short message specific service server and a session initiation protocol (SIP) uniform resource identifier (URI) of a called terminal that does not have an MSISDN to establish short message communication between the calling terming and the called terminal that does not have the MSISDN, wherein the SIP URI is an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem Public User Identity (IMPU) of the called terminal, and the SMS-submit message is received by either the MSC or the SGSN, and wherein the SMS-submit message is then sent to an SMS-service center (SMS-SC) via an SMS-interworking mobile switching center (SMS-IWMSC); sending, by the SMS-SC, an SMS-deliver message and the MSISDN to an SMS-gateway mobile switching center (SMS-GMSC), wherein the SMS-deliver message carries the SIP URI of the called terminal; sending, by the SMS-GMSC, a Forward Short Message to the short message specific service server according to the MSISDN, wherein the Forward Short Message carries the SIP URI of the called terminal; acquiring, by the short message specific service server, the SIP URI of the called terminal from the Forward Short; and sending, by the short message specific service server, an SIP Message to the called terminal, wherein a request URI of the SIP Message is the SIP URI of the called terminal. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A short message processing method, comprising:
-
sending, by a calling terminal, a short message to an inter-working function entity (IWF), wherein the short message carries a non-mobile station international Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)/Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) number (MSISDN) identifier of a called terminal that does not have an MSISDN to establish short message communication between the calling terming and the called terminal that does not have the MSISDN; mapping, by the IWF, the identifier of the called terminal as an international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) of the called terminal, and sending a short message service (SMS)-submit message to an SMS-service center (SMS-SC), wherein the SMS-submit message carries the IMSI of the called terminal; sending, by the SMS-SC, an SMS-deliver message to an SMS-gateway mobile switching center (SMS-GMSC), wherein the SMS-deliver message carries the IMSI of the called terminal; sending, by the SMS-GMSC, a Forward Short Message to an Internet protocol (IP)-short message-gateway IP-SM-GW; and sending, by the IP-SM-GW, a session initiation protocol (SIP) Message to the called terminal, wherein a request uniform resource identifier (URI) Request of the SIP Message is the SIP URI of the called terminal, wherein either the SIP URI of the called terminal is obtained by the IP-SM-GW through mapping according to the IMSI of the called terminal, or the SIP URI of the called terminal is obtained by a home location register (HLR) or a home subscriber server (HSS) through mapping according to the IMSI of the called terminal and sent to the IP-SM-GW. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21)
