Abstract

A signaling message processing and routing node (300) transmits and receives short message service (SMS) data packets via a communications network. The routing node (300) includes an SMS message discrimination module (340) that determines whether an unwanted or spam SMS message is being sent to a receiving or called party. Unwanted SMS messages are discarded and consequently not delivered to their intended recipient. As a result, mobile subscribers and network nodes are shielded from unwanted SMS traffic. The SMS message discrimination module (340) also includes a provisioning interface (353) that allows end users and network operators to control SMS message discrimination criteria.

Claims

8. The method of claim 1 wherein receiving a first SMS message including sending and receiving party information includes receiving an SMS signaling message that contains an Internet protocol (IP) address and wherein performing a lookup in the SMS message discrimination database includes performing a lookup based on the IP address.
9. The method of claim 1 including in response to determining that the first SMS message is an unwanted message, generating a second SMS message addressed to a sending party.
10. The method of claim 9 wherein the second SMS message notifies the sending party that the first SMS message was blocked by the sending party.
11. The method of claim 1 including, in response to determining that the first SMS message is an unwanted message, generating a second SMS message addressed to a third party.
12. The method of claim 11 wherein the second SMS message notifies the third party that unwanted SMS messages are being sent from a sending party to a receiving party.
13. The method of claim 12 wherein the third party is a network operator or carrier.
14. The method of claim 12 wherein the third party is a government agency.
15. The method of claim 1 including in response to determining that the first SMS message is an unwanted message, updating information in a usage measurements and billing (UMB) database to account for the discarded SMS message.
16. The method of claim 15 including generating a bill based on information stored in the UMB database.
17. The method of claim 15 including generating a billing verification report based on information stored in the UMB database.
18. The method of claim 15 including generating a report using data in the UMB database indicating the number of discarded SMS messages associated with or sent by a sending party.
19. A method for processing short message service (SMS) messages, the method comprising:
(a) allowing a user to provision SMS message discrimination data in an SMS message discrimination table in a signaling message routing node;
(b) at the signaling message routing node, receiving SMS messages from a network;
(c) extracting parameters from the SMS messages; (d) performing a lookup in the SMS message discrimination table in the signaling message routing node using the extracted parameters; and (e) identifying wanted and unwanted SMS messages based on the SMS message discrimination data provisioned by the user.
20. The method of claim 19 wherein allowing a user to provision SMS message discrimination data includes allowing the user to input receiving-party-based SMS message discrimination data in the SMS message discrimination table.
21. The method of claim 20 wherein allowing the user to input receiving- party-based SMS message discrimination data in the SMS message discrimination table includes allowing the user to input receiving 36
mobile subscriber identification information in the SMS message discrimination table.
22. The method of claim 20 wherein allowing the user to input receiving- party-based SMS message discrimination data in the SMS message discrimination table includes allowing the user to input receiving network identification information in the SMS message discrimination table.
23. The method of claim 19 wherein allowing a user to provision SMS message SMS message discrimination data includes allowing the user to input sending-party-based discrimination data in the SMS message discrimination table.
24. The method of claim 23 wherein allowing the user to input sending- party-based SMS message discrimination data in the SMS message discrimination table includes allowing the user to input sending mobile subscriber identification information in the SMS message discrimination table.
25. The method of claim 23 wherein allowing the user to input sending- party-based SMS message discrimination data in the SMS message discrimination table includes allowing the user to input sending network identification information in the SMS message discrimination table.
