Abstract

The invention relates to a method for the transmission of additional information in a communication system (10), whereby a communication context connection (15a, 15b) is established from a first user station (11) to at least one second user station (12), for the transmission of information and/or data. Additional information is thus transmitted from an additional information device (14) to the second user station (12). The transmission occurs in a signal for the establishment of the communication context in a defined format, in order to permit a representation as electronic data card or ID card with text, image or multimedia content before the call reception. The transmission occurs, for example, depending on a release of the first user station (11) for the receipt of additional information. Query data are sent, for example, before the transmission. A selection can be carried out by means of a pre-selection or an additional code.

Claims

1. Method for the transmission of additional information in a communication system (10;

30;

200;

300), wherein a communication context (15a, 15b;

15a, 17a, 17b;

17a;

18a, 18b, 18c) is established from a first user station (11) to at least to a second user station (12) for transmitting information or data to the second user station (12), and depending on a set-up signal from the first user station (11) for setting up the communication context, additional information is transmitted from an additional information device (14;

34, 35) to the second user station (12), characterized in that the data of the first user station (11) and/or the additional information is transmitted to the second user station (12) within the set-up signal for setting up the communication context in a predefined format in order to permit there a representation as a data card with text and image content before the call is accepted.
