Foreword
This European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Signalling
Protocols and Switching (SPS).
The present document is part 1 of a multi-part standard covering the Digital Subscriber Signalling System No. one (DSS1)
protocol specification for the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Three Party (3PTY) supplementary service, as
described below:
Part 1: "Protocol specification";
Part 2: "Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma specification";
Part 3: "Test Suite Structure and Test Purposes (TSS&TP) specification for the user";
Part 4: "Abstract Test Suite (ATS) and partial Protocol Implementation eXtra Information for Testing (PIXIT)
proforma specification for the user";
Part 5: "Test Suite Structure and Test Purposes (TSS&TP) specification for the network";
Part 6: "Abstract Test Suite (ATS) and partial Protocol Implementation eXtra Information for Testing (PIXIT)
proforma specification for the network".
In accordance with CCITT Recommendation I.130, the following three level structure is used to describe the
supplementary telecommunications services as provided by European public telecommunications operators under the pan-
European Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN):
- Stage 1: is an overall service description, from the user's standpoint;
- Stage 2: identifies the functional capabilities and information flows needed to support the service described in
stage 1; and,
- Stage 3: defines the signalling system protocols and switching functions needed to implement the service described
in stage 1.
The present document details the stage 3 aspects (signalling system protocols and switching functions) needed to support
the Three Party (3PTY) supplementary service. The stage 1 and stage 2 aspects are detailed in ETS 300 186 and
ETS 300 187, respectively.
The present version updates the references to the basic call specifications and incorporates all previous amendments and
corrigenda.

1 Scope
This first part of EN 300 188 specifies the stage three of the Three Party (3PTY) supplementary service for the pan-
European Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) as provided by European public telecommunications operators at
the T reference point or coincident S and T reference point (as defined in CCITT Recommendation I.411 [5]) by means of
the Digital Subscriber Signalling System No. one (DSS1) protocol. Stage three identifies the protocol procedures and
switching functions needed to support a telecommunications service (see CCITT Recommendation I.130 [3]).
In addition the present document specifies the protocol requirements at the T reference point where the service is
provided to the user via a private ISDN.
The present document does not specify the additional protocol requirements where the service is provided to the user via
a telecommunications network that is not an ISDN.
The 3PTY supplementary service enables a user to establish, participate in and control, a three-way conversation, i.e. a
simultaneous communication involving the served user and two remote users.
The 3PTY supplementary service is applicable to all circuit-switched telecommunication services carrying speech.
Further parts of the present document specify the method of testing required to identify conformance to the present
document.
The present document is applicable to equipment, supporting the 3PTY supplementary service, to be attached at either
side of a T reference point or coincident S and T reference point when used as an access to the public ISDN.

5 Description
The served user, which has only one Active-Idle connection, and at least one Active-Held connection can join the Active-
Idle connection with one of the Active-Held connections, to form a three-way conversation.
NOTE 1: Each call, to be involved in the 3PTY supplementary service, can have been originated by either the served
user, or by the appropriate remote user.
During the three-way conversation the served user can request that the network:
- explicitly disconnects one of the remote users, and the connection to that remote user;
- terminates the three-way conversation; or
- creates a private communication with one of the remote users.
Either of the remote users (user B or user C) can request that the network disconnects the connection.
Remote users are notified of these actions.
NOTE 2: During an interim period of time, some networks may not support the transfer of the notification to the
remote users.
NOTE 3: The protocol for implementation of the 3PTY supplementary service is restricted to implementations where
only one call within an Active-Idle connection exists for that CEI value. User implementations, e.g.
multifunctional terminals, that in a normal operation support more than one call with an Active-Idle
connection on the same CEI value, cannot make effective use of this protocol.

All components (invoke, return result, return error and reject) shall be included within a Facility information element. The
Facility information element shall be included in the message as specified in clause 9.
7.2 Coding of the Notification indicator information element
The notification description is contained in octet 3 of the Notification indicator information element and shall be coded as
shown in table 2.
NOTE: The following guidance is given for the interpretation of the notification descriptions at a remote user. A
notification description of "Remote hold" indicates a loss of communication path in the B-channel. When
three-way conversation exists, this may be due to termination of the three-way conversation, which will be
indicated by a subsequent notification description of "Conference disconnected", or due to operation of
some supplementary services, e.g. the call hold supplementary service. When the notification description of
"Conference disconnected" is received, a communication path exists in the B-channel, unless the
notification description is accompanied by, or immediately followed by, a notification description of
"Remote hold", which indicates a loss of communication path in the B-channel.

The auxiliary states as specified in EN 300 196-1 [15], subclause 7.1.2 shall apply.
The following states are defined for the network:
- 3PTY Idle: an occurrence of the 3PTY supplementary service has not been requested;
- 3PTY Active: an occurrence of the 3PTY supplementary service exists;
- 3PTY Await Retrieve: a Retrieve function should be initiated by the user prior to ending of the 3PTY
supplementary service;
- 3PTY Await Hold And Retrieve: a Hold function and a Retrieve function should be initiated by the user prior to
ending of the 3PTY supplementary service;
- 3PTY Await Hold: a Hold function should be initiated by the user prior to ending of the 3PTY supplementary
service.

9 Signalling procedures at the coincident S and
T reference point
9.1 Activation, deactivation and registration
Not applicable, i.e. no signalling procedures are required for the activation, deactivation and registration of the 3PTY
supplementary service.
9.2 Invocation and operation
9.2.1 Request for a three-way conversation
9.2.1.1 Normal operation
In order to request the 3PTY supplementary service, the served user requires two calls each related to the same CEI
value, one with each of the remote users. One call shall have an Active-Idle connection. The other call shall have an
Active-Held connection. The served user shall have no other calls with Active-Idle connections related to the same CEI
value. Other calls with Active-Held connections may exist.
To request the 3PTY supplementary service, the served user shall send to the network a Begin3PTY invoke component
according to the procedures of EN 300 196-1 [15], subclause 8.3.1.1, within a FACILITY message, and using the Call
Reference (CR) of the appropriate Active-Held connection.
NOTE: The other CR is implicitly identified by the constraint that it is the only Active-Idle connection.
On receiving this request, the network shall check whether:
- the 3PTY supplementary service is allowed to this user;
- the received request relates to an Active-Held connection;
- for the CEI value on which the request is received, a single Active-Idle connection exists;
- that a three-way bridge is available for use;
- no three-way bridge that is controlled by the served user is already included in the Active-Idle connection or in the
Active-Held connection; and
- the requirements of EN 300 195-1 [14] are met for the other supplementary service interactions.
If these requirements are met, the network shall:
a) allocate a three-way bridge;
b) attach the identified connections to this three-way bridge using the B-channel of the Active-Idle connection to
support user information transfer with the served user;
c) return to the served user a Begin3PTY return result component according to the procedures of EN 300 196-1 [15],
subclause 8.3.1.1, within a FACILITY message, and using the CR of the appropriate Active-Held connection; and
