characteristic the call control state machine of tbs does not contain an idle state but one |
is shown in figure for clarity the second octet of the call state characteristic identifies |
the current state of each call and the final octet holds call flags associated with that call |

table lists the state values which are returned in the call state characteristic |
state name description |
x incoming an incoming call normally causing a ringtone |
x dialing an outgoing call has started but the remote party has |
not yet been notified the traditional dialtone state |
x alerting the remote party is being alerted they have a |
ringtone |
x active the call is established with an active conversation |
x locally held the call is connected but on hold locally see below |
x remotely held the call is connected but on hold remotely see |
below |
x locally and |
remotely held the call is connected but on hold both locally and |
remotely see below |

table states de fined for the call state characteristic |
chapter telephony and media control |
local and remote hold |
states x x and x refer to calls which have been placed on hold these states are |
differentiated by who it was who put the call on hold a value of x indicates that it has |
been put on hold locally ie by the user with the phone or pc with this tbs instance a |
value of x means that it has been put on hold by the remote party and a value of x |
means that both ends on the call have put it on hold |
a locally held call can be retrieved brought back to the active state by writing to the control |
point a remotely held call needs to be retrieved by the remote party the only local action |
that can be applied to a remotely held call is to terminate it |
call flags |
the final o ctet of the call state characteristic is a bitfield containing information on the call |
with the meanings and corresponding values shown in table |

table call status bits for the call state characteristic |
bits and indicate cases where information such as the uri typically the caller id or |
friendly name may be deliberately withheld because of either a local or network policy either |
or both may be set in which case the fields of the associated characteristics may be empty or |
null alternatively the server can fill them with appropriate text such as withheld or |
unknown caller the choice of policy and text is implementation specific |
ucis and uris |
two initialisms you will come across in telephony applications are uri and uci which stand |
for uniform resource identifier and uniform caller identifier both are designed to provide |
call information which covers a wide variety of telephony applications and bearers |
the uniform caller identifier is essentially the bearer for example skype or wtsap the |
values for the ucis are listed in the bluetooth uniform c aller identifiers assigned numbers |
document and are generally abbreviated to no more than five characters hence whatsapp is |
wtsap standard phone numbers use the uci of e or tel signifying a standard |
dialer format |
section tbs and ccp |
the uniform resource ident ifier is a combination of the uci and the caller id ie the callers |
number or username depending on the application it can be used for either an incoming |
call where it is the caller id or an outgoing call an application can use the uci portion o f |
a uri for an outgoing call to select the appropriate telephony application to make the call |
uris are expressed as a utf string |
the tbs call control point characteristic |
as weve seen with bap and ascs a client can move a server around its state mac hine by |
writing to a control point characteristic in this case its the tbs call control point |
characteristic this requires a single opcode followed by a parameter which depends on the |
specific opcode as indicated in figure |

table shows the curr ent opcodes and describes their purpose |
opcode name parameter description |
x accept callindex accepts the incoming call |
x terminate callindex terminate the call associated with |
callindex regardless of its state |
x local hold callindex places an active or incoming call with |
callindex on local hold |
x local |
retrieve callindex moves a locally held call to the active |
state |
x originate uri starts a call to the uri |
x join list of callindex |
values joins the calls identified in the list of |
callindex values |

table call control point characteristic opcodes for moving around the tbs state machine |
the opcodes of table are requests to the server which it passes to its relevant telephony |
application some of these accept terminate and originate refer to actions which will be |
taken locally by the telephony application local hold and retrieve generally need to be |
passed back to the network and join is almost always a network function depending on the |
specific telephony bearer and application not all of these functions may b e available they |
may also fail based on the current phone resources and the network connection for example |
