Systems and methods for enhanced messaging for network- and user equipment-implemented call request handling

A non-transitory computer-readable medium, storing a plurality of processor-executable instructions to:

• maintain information associating each call request category, of a plurality of call request categories, to a respective set of actions of a plurality of sets of actions;
• receive, from a first User Equipment (“UE”), a request to establish a call between the first UE and a second UE;
• identify one or more attributes associated with at least one of the first UE or the second UE;
• determine, based on the one or more attributes associated with the at least one of the first UE or the second UE, that the call request is associated with a particular call request category, of the plurality of call request categories;
• provide, to the second UE, a notification of the request to establish the call between the first UE and the second UE, the notification including an indication of the determined particular call request category associated with the call request, wherein the second UE identifies a particular set of actions associated with the particular call request category and receives a selection of a particular action of the particular set of actions;
• receive, from the second UE, a response to the notification, the response indicating the selected particular action, of the particular set of actions associated with the particular call request category, to take with respect to the call request;
• and
• perform, based on receiving the response, the selected particular action with respect to the call request.

A method, comprising:

• maintaining information associating each call request category, of a plurality of call request categories, to a respective set of actions of a plurality of sets of actions;
• receiving, from a first User Equipment (“UE”), a request to establish a call between the first UE and a second UE;
• identify one or more attributes associated with at least one of the first UE or the second UE;
• determining, based on the one or more attributes associated with the at least one of the first UE or the second UE, that the call request is associated with a particular call request category, of the plurality of call request categories;
• providing, to the second UE, a notification of the request to establish the call between the first UE and the second UE, the notification including an indication of the determined particular call request category associated with the call request, wherein the second UE identifies a particular set of actions associated with the particular call request category and receives a selection of a particular action of the particular set of actions;
• receiving, from the second UE, a response to the notification, the response indicating the selected particular action, of the particular set of actions associated with the particular call request category, to take with respect to the call request;
• and
• performing, based on receiving the response, the selected particular action with respect to the call request.
