When only one line is used, such as in a mobile phone, PHS, or ordinary household, the number to be notified is constant, and the above-described function works effectively. In a telephone system in which a plurality of lines are allocated to a certain group, such as a company, etc., and a call is made using an available line at the time of making a call, a number notified by the line availability even if the same person makes a call Changes.

Therefore, there are the following problems. (1) Even when a call is received from a destination whose direct phone number such as a so-called dial-in number is registered in the address book, it is regarded as an incoming call from an unregistered destination, so that the destination is specified. Needless to say, it is not possible to specify the department or company to which they belong. (2) Not only is it stored as unknown in the incoming call history, but also the call is not connected to the correct person in the return call using the incoming call history.

As a method for solving this problem, it is conceivable to register all telephone numbers that can be notified as telephone numbers of the same destination. However, when the number of destinations increases, the registration work becomes very complicated, and the burden on the user increases.

[0007] Further, since a number corresponding to one of a plurality of lines used by the destination group is registered in the incoming call history, if a return call is performed using the incoming call history, the call is still generated. Problem that the telephone is likely to reach another place that is not the person

(Registration Format) FIG. 2 is a diagram for explaining a registration format of a telephone number in the telephone according to the embodiment of the present invention. The telephone according to the embodiment has two tables in the memory 6, a line number table 21 and an address book 22. The line number table 21 is a table for registering the names of companies and departments calling by using a plurality of lines and telephone numbers that can be notified when a call is received from the department. The address book is used for names and calling. 9 is a table for registering telephone numbers.

The line number table 21 includes an index field 211, a group name field 212, and a line number field 213. A separate value is assigned to the index field 211 for each group. In the present embodiment, numbers 1, 2, 3,... Are used as indexes.

The group name field 212 is a field in which an identification name such as a name can be given and registered for each group of line numbers that the user wishes to collectively handle, such as a company or a department within the company. The line number field 213 is a field for registering a telephone number that can be notified when an incoming call comes from within the same group.

On the other hand, the address book 22 has a name field 2
21, a telephone number field 222 and an index field 223. The name and name of the other party are stored in the name field 221, and the telephone number used when making a call is stored in the telephone number field 222. The index field 223 stores the value of the index field 221 corresponding to the group name in the line number table 21 specified at the time of registering (or editing) the address book.

As described above, the two tables are linked by the index fields 211 and 223 of each other.

(Operation of Registering Line Number Table) Next, the operation of registering in the line number table 21 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. Note that FIG. 3 shows an operation from a state in which registration and editing operations of the line number table are designated from a processing menu displayed by a predetermined operation of the operation key 3 of the telephone.

First, it is determined whether there is a group already registered in the line number table (S101). If there is a registered group, the group name stored in the group name field 212 of the line number table 21 is read out and displayed in a list on the display unit 5 of the telephone (S102). Next, as a last line of the list display, for example, an item “new group” is displayed as an item selected by the user when registering a new group (S103). If it is determined in S101 that there is no registered group, the process directly proceeds to S103, and the display unit 5 displays the item “new group”.
Only is displayed.

After the items are displayed, the process waits for selection of a group name or "new group" item whose contents are to be edited (S10).
4). When the user selects a desired item using the arrow keys of the operation key 3 or the like, the selected item is determined (S10).
5).

If the selected item is a registered group name item, "edit group name" and "edit number" are displayed as a list on the next menu item, and the user can select either the name of the group or the registration number. It is inquired whether the user wants to edit (S109). Then, processing according to the content selected by the user, that is, processing such as group name change, group deletion, registration number change, deletion, addition, etc. is performed (S110), and the registration processing ends.

On the other hand, if it is detected in S105 that the selected item is a "new group" item, a new record is added to the line number table 21 and a new index is registered in the index field 211 thereof ( (S106), input processing of a new group name is performed, and the input group name is registered in the group name field 212 (S107). When you have finished entering the group name,
The input process of the line numbers belonging to the group is performed, and the line numbers are sequentially registered in the line number field 213 (S108). When the input processing of the line number is completed, the registration processing is completed.

(Address Book Registration Operation) FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing an address book registration operation in the telephone according to the embodiment of the present invention. Like FIG. 3, FIG. 4 shows an operation from a state in which an address book registration and editing operation is designated from a processing menu displayed by a predetermined operation of the operation key 3 of the telephone.

First, items such as "edit" and "new registration" are displayed on the display unit 5 of the telephone (S201), and it is determined whether the user wants to edit the registered contents or newly register. (S202). If "new registration" is selected, input processing such as name and name is performed, and the input result is registered in the name field 221 of the new record (S20).
3). Next, input processing of a telephone number corresponding to the destination is performed and registered in the telephone number field 222 (S2).
04). When inputting a plurality of telephone numbers to the same destination, the number input process is repeated a plurality of times.

When the number input process is completed, the user is prompted to select whether or not to perform group registration (S205). Group registration means that the newly registered party belongs to a group such as a company, and there is a possibility that a call will be made to that party from a line with a number different from the phone number (dial-in number, etc.) used to make a call from here. Perform in some cases.

When a selection result indicating that group registration is not performed is obtained, a value indicating that there is no corresponding group is registered in the index field 223 of the address book 22 (“0” in this embodiment). (S206), the process ends.

On the other hand, when a selection result indicating that group registration is performed is obtained, the group name field 212 of the line number table 21 is read out and displayed in a list (S20).
7). And get the group name selected by the user,
Corresponding index field 21 of line number table 21
The value of 1 is read and registered in the index field 223 of the address book (S208). When the registration is completed, the process ends.

When the group name is displayed in S207, a "new registration" item may be additionally displayed on the last line so that the registration processing of the new group described with reference to FIG. 3 can be performed.

If an item other than "new registration" is selected in S202, items such as "name edit" and "number edit" are displayed and an instruction of an edit operation desired by the user is waited for (S2).
09). Then, processing according to the user's selection, that is, processing such as name change, registration name deletion, registration number change, deletion, and addition is performed (S210), and the registration processing is terminated.

(Display processing at the time of incoming call) Next, display processing at the time of incoming call in the telephone of the present invention will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG. 5 and the display example shown in FIG.

First, the presence or absence of an incoming call is detected (S30).
1). When the incoming call is detected, the caller telephone number included in the signal is extracted (S302). Next, a detection process is performed to determine whether or not the calling telephone number is a number registered in the address book. That is, the value of the telephone number field 222 of the address book 22 is compared with the notified caller telephone number (S
303), whether there is a match (S304) is repeatedly checked for all records included in the address book (S306).

In S304, if a matching number is detected, the number and the corresponding name field 2
The value 21 is displayed on the display unit 5 of the telephone, and the flow shifts to S316 (FIG. 10A).

On the other hand, if the caller telephone number is not registered in the address book, the line number table 21 is searched. That is, the value of the line number field 213 of the line number table 21 is compared with the caller telephone number (S30).
7) Check whether there is a match (S308) for all records (S309).

If a matching number is detected in S308, a record having a value (index value) registered in the index field 211 (of the line number table 21) corresponding to the line number field in the index field 223 is stored. Is searched for in the address book 22 (S310). If there is a matching record (S311), the name field 22 of the record
1 and the value of the telephone number field 222 are also added to the display list secured in a predetermined area of the memory 6 (S3).
12). Index field 22 of address book 22
When the comparison process for all 3 is completed (S313),
The contents stored in the display list are displayed as a list on the display unit 5 (S315, FIG. 10B).

When a plurality of telephone numbers are registered for the same person or name in the address book 22, for example, the first registered telephone number is recorded in a display list. Also,
If all the data cannot be displayed at one time,
As shown by ▼ in (b), a mark indicating to the user that there is data that is not displayed is displayed. When displaying the contents of the display list, FIG.
As shown in (1), the telephone number is displayed first, and then the name is displayed (it is also possible to display only one of them according to the setting of the user).

When the display list contains more display objects than the number of lines that can be displayed at one time, predetermined keys of the operation keys 3, such as an up / down arrow key, a jog dial, and a joystick, are generally used. The scroll display is performed in response to the operation such as.

On the other hand, in the line number table search processing in steps S307 to S309, if all records have been searched without finding a matching number, only the caller telephone number is displayed by a preset method. Yes (S31
4, FIG. 10 (c)).

If the user goes off-hook while displaying the contents of the display list in S315 or the display of the unknown caller in S314, that is, when a call is started (S31).
316), the content displayed at the time of off-hook is recorded in the incoming call history which records a predetermined number of recent incoming calls history (calls made) (S318). When the recording is completed, the process ends.

If only the name is displayed during recording in the incoming call history, the telephone number corresponding to the name is recorded.
When multiple telephone numbers are registered for the same name, (1) record the telephone number registered first (2) record the telephone number last called (3) Record according to the conditions such as recording the telephone number.

On the other hand, if the call is terminated before detecting the off-hook in S316 (S317)
, The content displayed in the same manner as described above is recorded in the “Missed call history” that records a predetermined number of incoming calls that have been received but have not made a call, and the process ends (S319).

(Calling Process Using Incoming Call History) The outgoing call process using the incoming call history or the missed call history will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. FIG. 6 shows the operation from the state where the incoming call history display or the missed call display is specified from the processing menu displayed by the predetermined operation of the operation key 3 of the telephone.

First, the designated history information is read out, and the name and / or telephone number of the caller is displayed on the display unit 5 (S401). At this time, for the incoming call notified of the number registered in the line number table 21, the registered value (name / name) of the record having the same index value registered in the address book
Name and phone number) are displayed.

The user displays a desired incoming call (or missed incoming call) history from the history information on the screen by using, for example, the arrow keys of the operation keys 3 and the like, and presses a predetermined key (YES key or the like). Thus, history selection is performed (S40).
2). At this time, it is determined whether there is a plurality of applicable persons in the history selected in S403, and when there are a plurality of applicable persons, the user is prompted to select a further specific person (S404).

That is, since the history is managed on a call-by-call basis, if a telephone number in the line number table is notified when an incoming call is received, a plurality of persons may be registered in one history. It is necessary to select one person who wants to make a call from among. In such a case, if data for a plurality of persons cannot be displayed due to the screen display capability, FIG.
As shown in (b), for example, a predetermined mark (in this case, ▼) is displayed at the lower right of the display screen to notify the user of the existence of another person.

Next, it is checked whether or not a predetermined operation of the operation key 3 for instructing a call, for example, detection of pressing of a call button is within a predetermined time (S405, S406). When the call instruction is not detected within the predetermined time, the history display is ended, the initial display contents such as the date and time display are displayed (S408), and the process ends.

On the other hand, if a key input corresponding to a call instruction is detected within a predetermined time in S405, a call is made to the destination selected on the display unit 5 at that time (S407). finish.

(Registration Process After Call) Next, a process for registering a telephone number that has not been registered at the time of an incoming call after a call is ended will be described with reference to a flowchart shown in FIG. It is assumed that, before performing this process, information that the telephone number of the other party during the call has not been registered has been recorded in a predetermined area of the memory 6.

When the call is completed (S701), for example, a message such as "Do you want to register the other party's telephone number?" Is displayed, and the user selects whether or not to register the telephone number of the other party on the call. (S702). If there is a selection to not register by pressing the “No” key or the like,
This processing ends.

On the other hand, when the registration is selected by pressing the "Yes" key or the like, a message such as "new registration?" Is displayed, and whether to register newly is displayed in the existing line number table. The user is prompted to select whether to add it as a line number or as an outgoing telephone number in an existing address book (S703).

If the user presses the "No" key or the like to select a number to be added to an existing group or the other party,
A process for selecting a group for registering a number or a destination is performed (S707). Specifically, the user is prompted to select whether to register to a group (line number table) or to a destination (address book), and according to the selection, a list of existing group names or destination names is displayed. Prompt for the registration destination. The telephone number is registered in the registration destination selected when the key for determining the registration destination, such as the “Yes” key, is pressed (S708), and the process ends.

On the other hand, if the new registration is selected in S703, the user is prompted to select between registration in a group (line number table) and registration in a destination (address book) (S704). When the new registration of the group is selected, a new group registration process equivalent to the process of S106 to S108 in FIG. 3 is executed (S705), and the process ends.
If the new registration of the destination is selected, the process proceeds to S20 in FIG.
A new address book registration process corresponding to 3 to S208 is executed (S706), and the process ends. After the group new registration process, a process of designating a destination associated with the group or a process of newly registering a destination may be performed.

(Second Embodiment) FIGS. 8 to 10 show another embodiment of the incoming call display processing and the calling processing using the history in the telephone according to the second embodiment of the present invention. It will be described using FIG. Other processing is described in the first section above.
Since the third embodiment is common to the first embodiment, the description is omitted. Although the contents of the group name field 212 of the line number table 21 are not used in the first embodiment, the present embodiment is characterized in that processing is performed using the contents of this field.

(Incoming Call Display Processing) First, the presence or absence of an incoming call is detected (S501). When an incoming call is detected, a caller telephone number included in the signal is extracted (S502). next,
A detection process is performed to determine whether or not the calling telephone number is a number registered in the address book. That is, the value of the telephone number field 222 of the address book 22 is compared with the notified caller telephone number (S503), and there is a match (S5).
04) is repeated for all records included in the address book (S506).

If a matching number is detected in S504, the number and the corresponding name field 2
21 is displayed on the display unit 5 of the telephone (FIG. 10A).
Then, control goes to a step S512.

On the other hand, if the caller telephone number is not registered in the address book, the line number table 21 is searched. That is, the value of the line number field 213 of the line number table 21 is compared with the caller telephone number (S50).
7) Check all records for a match (S508) (S509).

If a matching number is detected in S508, the contents registered in the group name field 212 (of the line number table 21) corresponding to the line number field, that is, the group name such as the company / department name Is displayed on the display unit 5 of the telephone (S510). At this time, FIG.
As shown in 0 (d), the notified number may be displayed together with the group name.

On the other hand, in the line number table search processing in steps S507 to S509, if all records have been searched without finding a matching number, only the caller telephone number is displayed by a preset method. Yes (S51
