Abstract

Methods and systems for triggerless mobile group dialing are disclosed. A method for triggerless mobile group dialing includes intercepting call signaling messages that contain mobile dialing codes. For these call signaling messages, a mobile dialing group ID is determined based on the calling party address in the mobile call signaling messages if the mobile call signaling messages contain calling party addresses. The mobile dialing group ID and the mobile dialing code are used together to determine a full called party address for each of the signaling messages. In lieu of using a mobile dialing group ID, a method is also presented for directly associating combinations of full E.164 calling party address digits and mobile dialing codes to full E.164 called party address digits. The full called party address is inserted in each of the signaling messages and each message is routed to its intended destination.
