  Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a mobile phone according to an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, a mobile phone 1 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 11, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 12, a working memory 13, a voice storage memory 14, a mail address storage memory 15, an operation key 16, The key input unit 17, display control unit 18, display unit 19, transmission / reception unit 20, and response memory 21 are configured.

  The CPU 11, the ROM 12, the work memory 13, the voice storage memory 14, the address storage memory 15, the key input unit 17, the display control unit 18, the transmission / reception unit 20, and the response memory 21 are respectively The buses 100 are connected to each other.

  The ROM 12 is a memory that stores fixed data such as a dictionary used for various control programs to be executed by the CPU 11 and character conversion. The work memory 13 is constituted by a RAM (Random Access Memory), and stores data temporarily required for the CPU 11 to execute the program. The image data for editing when the e-mail is transmitted is also stored in a predetermined area of the working memory 13.

  The voice storage memory 14 is constituted by a RAM and stores voice data of a mobile phone user. The mail address storage memory 15 is constituted by a RAM, and stores mail address data of a mobile phone user.

  The key input unit 17 is an input circuit that accepts key inputs from various keys including the operation keys 16. The display control unit 18 is a control circuit that controls display on the display unit 19. The display unit 19 is disposed on the front surface of a device housing (not shown), and is a display device such as a monochrome or color liquid crystal panel or an organic EL (Electro Luminescence).

  The transmission / reception unit 20 is a circuit that transmits and receives data wirelessly. The response memory 21 is an address that associates each of the operation keys 16 of the operation composed of the numeric keypad of the apparatus and predetermined function keys with one address for storing the voice, and is a nonvolatile memory. It consists of

  In this embodiment, the operation key 16 and the address of the voice response message stored in the voice storage memory 14 are stored in the response memory 21 in association with each other, and any one of the operation keys 16 is pressed. A response message in the voice storage memory 14 corresponding to the operation key 16 pressed when the CPU 11 is detected is transmitted from the transmission / reception unit 20 to the caller side, and this caller information is incorporated into the corresponding part of the edit screen and can be edited. Is displayed on the display unit 19 via the display control unit 18.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a configuration example of the response memory 21 shown in FIG. In FIG. 2, the response memory 21 stores a correspondence table showing the relationship between the voice saved in the voice saving memory 14 and the operation keys 16.

  For example, the user of the mobile phone 1 can arbitrarily register a voice in predetermined operation keys 16 such as “1” and “5”, and can specify a response operation after the voice transmission. In this example, in the response memory 21, “train” and “disconnect operation after response” are registered in the numeric keypad “1” as an audio summary. In the numeric keypad “5”, “train” and “response by mail” are registered.

  FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an incoming call response method according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing an e-mail processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention. An incoming call response method and an e-mail processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. The processing shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 is realized by the CPU 11 executing the program in the ROM 12.

  The user of the mobile phone 1 determines whether or not a call can be made when the mobile phone receives an incoming call. If the user is able to talk (step S1 in FIG. 3), the CPU 11 performs the call process (step S6 in FIG. 3), and then ends the process.

  If the user cannot make a call (step S1 in FIG. 3), the CPU 11 determines the pressing state of the operation key 16 assigned in advance according to each situation (step S2 in FIG. 3). In this case, the CPU 11 checks the pressing state of the operation key 16 based on the detection result of the key input unit 17.

  When the CPU 11 detects that the operation key 16 is pressed (step S2 in FIG. 3), the CPU 11 reads the correspondence table (see FIG. 2) in the response memory 21 and passes it to the transmission / reception unit 20. Based on the correspondence table read from the response memory 21, the transmission / reception unit 20 transmits a response message in the corresponding voice storage memory 14 (step S3 in FIG. 3). If the operation key 16 pressed by the user is merely “speech transmission” in the correspondence table, the CPU 11 ends the process at the stage after the voice transmission (step S4 in FIG. 3).

  On the other hand, if the operation key 16 pressed by the user is “voice and mail transmission” in the correspondence table, the mail transmission screen is automatically activated at the stage after voice transmission (step S4 in FIG. 3) to edit the message. The screen shifts to a screen to edit and send an e-mail (step S5 in FIG. 3). CPU11 complete | finishes a process after transmission of an email.

  FIG. 4 shows an outline of the e-mail editing / transmission process shown in step S5. That is, when the user depresses the operation key 16 with e-mail reply registration, the CPU 11 reads out the mail address corresponding to the incoming call number from the e-mail address memory 15 based on the incoming call number (step S11 in FIG. 4). An edit screen in which the mail address is transferred to the e-mail address field is created (step S12 in FIG. 4), and the edit screen is displayed on the display unit 19 (step S13 in FIG. 4).

  When the CPU 11 displays the editing screen on the display unit 19 and performs editing input via the operation key 16 (step S14 in FIG. 4), the input content is reflected on the editing screen as editing content (step S21). An edit screen is displayed on the display unit 19. In this situation, if the body of the e-mail is created, an edit screen is added accordingly.

  On the other hand, when the user instructs to discard the edit screen (step S16 in FIG. 4), the CPU 11 discards the electronic mail without transmitting it. On the other hand, when the editing input is completed and the user instructs transmission (step S17 in FIG. 4), the CPU 11 performs an e-mail transmission process on the mail address indicated in the destination (step S18 in FIG. 4).

  As described above, in this embodiment, a response message is recorded and registered in advance by the user's own voice on the called party side, or a message designated by the terminal is selected, and the message and the button of the operation key 16 of the mobile phone are selected. By registering the correspondence in advance, when “No. 1” on the mobile phone is pressed when an incoming call is received, “Since we are in a meeting, we will call you again later.” Can send messages.

  In addition, in this embodiment, if the incoming number of a mobile phone or the like can be confirmed, an e-mail address registered in advance on the mobile phone will be responded by “I am currently on the train and will respond by e-mail.” After the voice response to the caller side, the mobile phone on the callee side switches to the mail transmission screen, and the caller side can be responded immediately with a single touch.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, even if the caller does not have a conversation, the current state of the callee can be known and information can be exchanged immediately by e-mail or the like, so that smooth communication can be achieved. .

  In this embodiment, the e-mail address is automatically selected when the e-mail editing screen is activated in FIG. 4, but an e-mail screen that can arbitrarily select an address that is an arbitrary address is selected before transmission. It may be.
