Abstract

Signaling is the means used to establish and control telephone calls. It includes signals from terminals (station signaling), to and from switching centers (register signaling), and also signals between switching centers (line signaling). Signals are carried by the line and trunk transmission equipment and the switching centers. Signaling also includes the tones and recorded messages which are used to indicate the progress of calls through the telecommunications network.
