A remote caller identification system with data logging and retrieval features
including a data logging unit which logs caller identifying information from incoming
calls from a caller to a subscriber phone connected to a switched telephone network.
A subscriber may subsequently retrieve the caller identifying information from
the data logging unit via a remote phone or via the internet. The system has at
least three possible implementations. In one implementation, the caller identifying
information is stored in a Service Signaling Point database. In a second implementation,
the caller identifying information is stored in a Service Control Point database.
In the third implementation, the caller identifying information is stored in a
database in a storage and retrieval device of a stand alone Customer Premises Equipment.
A caller retrieving the caller identification information is prompted to input
a password and with a menu to review or edit the caller identifying information.
