  A mobile communication terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

〔Constitution〕
The mobile communication terminal according to the embodiment of the present invention may be a terminal device that can communicate with the outside. Examples of the mobile communication terminal include a mobile phone, a PHS (Personal Handy-phone System), a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) that can communicate with the outside, a car navigation system, and the like.

  Below, the structure of the mobile telephone which is an example of a mobile communication terminal device is demonstrated.

FIG. 1 is an external perspective view of the mobile phone 100. Note that FIG. 1 shows a straight type mobile phone 100 having a touch panel on the display unit 101 as an example. There are various types of touch panels such as a capacitance method, a resistance film method, an optical method, an ultrasonic surface acoustic wave method, an infrared light shielding method, an electromagnetic induction method, and an image recognition method.

  In addition, although the straight type mobile phone 100 is shown as described above, the mobile phone may be a folding type or a slide type.

  The mobile phone 100 shown in FIG. 1 includes a display unit 101, a mouthpiece (receiver) 102, a mouthpiece (microphone) 103, and an operation unit 104.

  The display unit 101 displays various types of information for realizing the functions provided in the mobile phone 100. Examples of the various information include a radio wave state display 105a, a remaining battery level 105b, a date display 105c, and a time display 105d as shown in FIG. In addition, the information includes a function menu, address book, incoming call history, outgoing call history, incoming mail history and outgoing call history, character data and image data stored in a data folder, and the like.

  Specific examples of the display unit 101 include a liquid crystal display unit, an organic EL (ELECTRO LUMINESCENCE) display unit, and a plasma display unit.

  The earpiece 102 has a function of outputting sound to the outside in response to a control signal from the control unit 106 described later. The earpiece 102 can output the voice of the other party, for example.

  The mouthpiece 103 may be a microphone, for example, and has a function of inputting sound such as voice from the outside. The mouthpiece 103 outputs the input sound as an analog signal to the A / D converter.

  The operation unit 104 receives an operation input from the user. The operation from the user accepted by the operation unit 104 is input to the control unit 106 as a signal. In the case of FIG. 1, the operation unit 106 has a button shape and is operated by being pressed.

  FIG. 2 is a block configuration diagram of the mobile phone 100.

  The storage unit 107 is a memory area including an address book area 107a, a telephone call history area 107b, a telephone call history area 107c, a mail transmission history area 107d, and a mail reception history area 107e.

  The control unit 106 receives or transmits radio waves for mobile phones through the wireless communication circuit 108 and the antenna 109. In this embodiment, the wireless communication circuit 108 uses the CDMA method as the communication method of the mobile phone 100. The communication method is not limited to this, and other communication methods such as the LTE method may be used.

  The wireless communication circuit 108 includes a rake receiving unit 108a, and the rake receiving unit 108a includes a phase detecting unit 108b.

The phase detection unit 108b detects the multipath of the radio wave of the mobile phone 100. Here, multipath refers to a phenomenon in which a plurality of paths are taken until a transmitted radio wave is received, as translated into a multi-wave transmission path. For example, a direct wave that connects a shortest distance with a straight line. In addition, it is generated by reflected waves, transmitted waves, diffracted waves, and the like. And the control part 106 can discriminate | determine that the mobile telephone 100 exists indoors, when a multipath detection part detects the multipath more than predetermined.

  Multipath occurs because reflected waves, transmitted waves, diffracted waves, and the like are generated in addition to direct waves. Since the reflected wave travels while being reflected by an obstacle such as a high-rise building, it is received a little later than the direct wave. A wave that passes through an obstacle without being reflected is called a transmitted wave. A diffracted wave is a wave whose direction has been changed due to refraction by passing through the corner of an obstacle. Such a multipath is a radio wave that becomes an obstacle to a direct wave.

  The mobile phone 100 may employ a technique called “rake reception” that actively uses the multipath.

  Rake means “rake”, and rake reception means “collecting and receiving radio waves”. In other words, when direct waves or reflected waves arrive from multiple directions as multipaths, they will adversely affect the original reception as interference waves having the same frequency. Therefore, rake reception is a technique in which multipath radio waves are received individually and phase shifts are corrected and used after being superimposed. Since the signal superimposed by the rake reception becomes larger than the signal incorporating only the direct wave, the S / N ratio is increased and the signal is also stronger.

  The rake reception unit 108a realizes such rake reception. Since the rake reception unit 108a needs to correct the phase shift as described above, the rake reception unit 108a includes the phase detection unit 108b. As an example, the phase detection unit 108b detects the degree of phase shift (phase difference) of each signal by individually comparing the phase of each multipath radio signal with the phase of the reference signal (pilot signal), Data indicating the phase difference of each signal is obtained. This phase difference data is used for phase correction in the rake receiving unit 108a.

  In the mobile phone 100, in the wireless communication circuit 108, the above-described rake receiving unit 108a processes the mobile phone radio wave received from the antenna 109 and outputs a reception signal. The wireless communication circuit 108 reproduces or demodulates an audio signal from the received signal, and the audio signal is input to the control unit 106. The audio signal is converted into audio data by the control unit 106 and output.

  The GPS signal receiving circuit 111 is used for a positioning service by GPS (Global Positioning System) for acquiring current position information. In this service, assist information for capturing radio waves from a GPS satellite is received from a predetermined positioning server (for example, PDE; Position Determination Entity) via a base station.

  The GPS signal receiving circuit 111 demodulates a radio signal of a predetermined frequency band from a GPS satellite received by a GPS antenna, and supplies the processed signal to the control unit 106.

  The wireless communication circuit 108 performs demodulation processing and decoding processing on a predetermined high-frequency signal input from the antenna 109 to convert it into a digital audio signal. The digital audio signal input from the control unit 106 is subjected to encoding processing and modulation processing to be converted into a high frequency signal. Then, the wireless communication circuit 108 outputs a high frequency signal to the antenna 109.

  The antenna 109 receives a predetermined frequency band and outputs it to the wireless communication circuit 108 as a high frequency signal. In addition, the high-frequency signal output from the wireless communication circuit 108 is output as a signal in a predetermined frequency band.

  The control unit 106 controls software and hardware provided in the mobile phone 100. For example, the control unit 108 detects input operations accepted by the user, such as the touch panel input unit and the operation unit 106 in the display unit 102, and executes various functions provided in the mobile phone 100. Further, the control unit 106 executes a program stored in the mobile phone 100 in cooperation with the storage unit 107.

  An example of the control unit 106 is a control CPU.

  As described above, the mobile phone 100 having the touch panel input unit has been described as an example. However, the mobile phone 100 having the key input unit instead of the touch panel input unit may be used.

  FIG. 3 shows a call history of the mobile phone 100 stored in the storage unit 107. In the outgoing call history of FIG. 3, a plurality of outgoing time and position information are stored together with a telephone number or name which is information of the outgoing call partner.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, in the outgoing call history, whether or not the mobile phone 100 is indoors when a call is made to the caller may be displayed. Whether or not the mobile phone 100 is indoor is determined when the above-described phase detection unit 108b detects the multipath of the radio wave of the mobile phone 100 and detects a multipath of a predetermined level or more, the mobile phone 100 is indoors. Determine.

  FIG. 4A shows the call history stored in the storage unit 107 as shown in FIG. 3 that is actually displayed on the display unit 101 of the mobile phone 100 as the call history. In the transmission history of FIG. 4A, the transmission information is arranged in the order of the new transmission time.

  In the state where FIG. 4A is displayed, the outgoing histories can be rearranged by pressing a soft key labeled “display switching” in the lower right. As shown in FIG. 4B, when “present location priority display” is displayed, if it is selected, a transmission history as shown in FIG. 5 is displayed. In this outgoing call history, information on outgoing call partners is arranged in descending order of the number of outgoing calls within a radius of 500 m from the current location. Although the number of outgoing calls of the outgoing call partner A and the outgoing call party C is the same, in this case, the position of the mobile phone 100 at the time of outgoing call is shown in order from the information of the other party closer to the current location. Here, the display switching is set from the call history display screen. However, for example, it may be set at a stage before the call history is displayed (for example, the transition is made from the standby screen to the setting screen). Such).

  Here, by selecting “map display” in the lower left, a map showing the current location and its surroundings can be displayed (see FIG. 6).

  In FIG. 6, the current location is displayed, and a range with a radius of 500 m centered on the current location is displayed as a predetermined range 111 from the current location.

  In FIG. 6, the name of the outgoing call partner within the predetermined range 111 is displayed on the map. Instead of the name, for example, an image (for example, a photograph of the partner) related to the partner registered in the address book may be displayed on the map.

  The result similar to the transmission history of FIG. 5 can be confirmed from the map of FIG. That is, within the range of the predetermined area 111 displayed on the map of FIG. 6, four outgoing partners B, three outgoing partners A, and three outgoing partners C are displayed, which is the same as the outgoing call history of FIG. 5. The result of can be confirmed. Thereby, the user can intuitively confirm who made the transmission at which location around the current location.

In the above-described example, the transmission history information within a radius of 500 m from the current location is shown. For example, a predetermined area from the current location is changed from a radius of 500 m to a radius of 250 m.

  For example, when the “design change” soft key at the lower right is selected on the outgoing call history display screen of FIG. 5, a setting screen as shown in the upper part of FIG. 7 appears. Here, by inputting the radius “500 m” as the radius “250 m”, it is possible to narrow down the transmission history results as shown in FIG. 9.

  Further, by selecting the “map display” soft key in the lower left on the outgoing call history display screen of FIG. 5, the above-described map of FIG. 6 is displayed. At this time, as shown in FIG. The same setting can be achieved by touching the display unit 101 having a finger 112 with a finger 112 to narrow the predetermined range 111 from the current location. In the range of the predetermined area 111 displayed in FIG. 8, three transmission partners A and two transmission partners B are displayed, and the same result as the transmission history of FIG. 9 can be confirmed intuitively.

  FIG. 10 shows a display for narrowing down the case where the mobile phone 100 at the time of outgoing call is in a building as an example of setting change.

  Specifically, as shown in the upper part of FIG. 10, the setting is changed by checking a check box on the left side that is described as “limited to the transmission partner information transmitted within the building”. Note that, as described above, the determination as to whether or not the vehicle is inside a building is performed by detecting a multipath of radio waves.

  For example, it is stored in the history shown in FIG. 3 by setting the predetermined range 111 as shown in FIG. The history information is limited to two (calling partner A2 and sending partner B1) (see FIG. 11).

  Here, the map of FIG. 12 is displayed by selecting the “map display” soft key on the screen of FIG. 11. As shown in FIG. 12, the above three cases are displayed in an easy-to-understand manner, such as by thickening the balloon.

  The map may be linked with a map application. Building information can be obtained from the map application. For example, a display such as Company D may be displayed on the map as shown in FIG. In the case of FIG. 12, the above three cases are displayed so as to be included in the area of the D company, and it can be understood that all three cases are transmitted within the D company when combined with the discrimination result of indoor.

[Operation processing]
A program for executing processing at the time of calling is described with reference to FIG. First, after making a call in step S1, position information is acquired by GPS and stored in association with a telephone number as shown in the call history of FIG. 3 (step S2). Next, a multipath of radio waves is detected (step S3), and when a predetermined multipath or more is detected (step S4: Yes), it is determined to be indoor and stored in the outgoing call history (step S5). ). On the other hand, if the predetermined number of multipaths are not detected, the process returns to step S4 again.

  FIG. 14 shows a program to be executed when the outgoing call history is displayed.

  If a call history display instruction is received in step S6 (step S6: Yes), it is detected whether or not a setting for displaying a call history within a predetermined range from the current location is made (step S7). If the setting has been made (step S7: Yes), the current location information is acquired (step S8). On the other hand, when the setting is not made (step S7: No), the normal outgoing call history is displayed (step S10).

  After acquiring the location information of the current location, the transmission history information within a predetermined range is extracted from the location information of the current location (step S9), and the extracted transmission history information is arranged in descending order of the number of transmissions (step S11).

  It is detected whether or not an instruction for changing the setting of the specific range has been received (step S12). When the instruction is changed (step S12: Yes), the re-extracted transmission history information is arranged in the descending order of the number of calls (step S13). ). On the other hand, if the setting of the specific range is not changed, the process ends.

(Modification)
As mentioned above, although demonstrated using drawing etc., this invention is not limited to the said content.

  For example, in the above description, the outgoing call history display is described as an example. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the incoming call history display, the incoming mail history display, and the outgoing mail history display may be used. Moreover, you may perform the outgoing / incoming log | history which displays a mixed call log and incoming call log. For example, FIG. 15 shows not only who and where the call was made within the predetermined range 111 but also who and where the call was received (a black mark is a position related to the call, (The white mark is the position for incoming calls). From this figure, it can be seen that C received two incoming calls and A and B did not receive incoming calls. In this way, taking into account the incoming call result, the user is in good contact with C within the predetermined range 111, and it can be considered that C has a high priority within the predetermined range 111.

  In FIG. 16, the outgoing / incoming history in FIG. 15 is displayed. In the result of only the outgoing call history in FIG. 5, the ranking of B is the highest, but in the case of the outgoing / incoming history including the incoming call history, the ranking of C is the highest. In this way, the outgoing call history may be switched to the outgoing / incoming call history and displayed.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the outgoing histories within a predetermined range from the current location are arranged in descending order of the number of outgoing calls, but may be arranged in the order closer to the current location.

  As shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, the transmission history result is narrowed down so that the predetermined range from the current location is narrowed. However, for example, it may be narrowed down on the condition of the transmitted time zone. For example, as the time zone to be selected, time zone 1 (6 o'clock to 12 o'clock), time zone 2 (12 o'clock to 18 o'clock), time zone 3 (18 o'clock to 24 o'clock), and the like can be given.

  A day of the week is listed as a condition for narrowing down the transmission history result. The day of the week information is used if stored in the outgoing call history information. When the day information is not stored in the transmission history information, for example, the day information may be derived from the schedule information based on the date stored in the transmission history information.

  In addition, as a condition for narrowing down the outgoing call history result, date can be cited. The date information is stored in the transmission history information and is used.

  In the above description, GPS is used for position detection. However, the position detection is not limited thereto. For example, when GPS cannot be used, the position may be measured by a base station of a mobile phone.
