Abstract:
1. A method for integration of a packet-oriented network in a communication system, comprising: exchanging centralized signaling and service data through a central communication device; exchanging communication data between an application interface of the central communication device and a packet-oriented data communication system that is not a public switched telecommunications network; assigning a plurality of communication control servers to the packet-oriented network, the communication control servers including at least one signaling and payload servers and including at least one exchange server; implementing decentralized signaling and payload services through the at least one signaling and payload server by communicating decentralized signaling and payload; using a gateway for bilateral exchange of the centralized signaling and payload and the decentralized signaling and payload; and bilaterally converting the communication data between the application interface and the packet-oriented network, the communication data being bilaterally converted with the at least one exchange server.
