Description

The present invention relates to a telephone device and a telephone directory information management program.

In recent years, it has become common for telephone devices to have a built-in memory for storing a telephone directory. With the development of memory technology, memories are becoming smaller and larger in capacity. With the increase in memory capacity, the number of telephone numbers that can be registered in a telephone directory has increased significantly. For example, some telephone directories stored in modern telephone devices can store about 3,000 telephone numbers.

Further, the number of telephone numbers registered in the telephone directory of the telephone device increases as the telephone device is used. Therefore, in a telephone device in which the number of telephone numbers that can be registered in the telephone directory has increased, an extremely large number of telephone numbers will be registered. In this way, when many telephone numbers are registered, it takes time for the user of the telephone device to search the telephone directory for the telephone number of the desired party.

Here, as a prior art, in a telephone device having a call rejection list in which telephone numbers to be rejected are registered, when registering a telephone number, it is checked whether or not the telephone number is in the call rejection list. Techniques have been proposed to check the number of calls and, if found, remove them from the call rejection list.

Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2005-57517

However, after registering a phone number, it is cumbersome to review the phonebook and delete unnecessary phone numbers, and users rarely do this, and it is difficult to delete unnecessary phone numbers from the phonebook. Met. Furthermore, although it is possible to closely examine the call rejection list using the conventional technology of deleting the telephone number to be registered from the call rejection list, it is difficult to delete unnecessary telephone numbers from the telephone directory. Ta.

The disclosed technology has been developed in view of the above, and aims to provide a telephone device and a telephone directory information management program that facilitate the management of stored telephone directories.

In one aspect of the telephone device and telephone directory information management program disclosed by the present application, the telephone directory storage unit stores telephone directory information including telephone numbers. The call control unit makes a call by transmitting a SETUP signal in response to a communication command, establishes communication by receiving a CALL-CONN signal as a response to the call, and further receives a notification of disconnection by a CLEAR signal. Disconnect communication. The history management unit determines that a missed communication disconnection has occurred when the call control unit receives the CLEAR signal without receiving the CALL-CONN signal after transmitting the SETUP signal, and determines that the missed communication disconnection has occurred. If this occurs, record the number of missed disconnections corresponding to the telephone number of the called party , and if the call control unit receives the CALL-CONN signal after transmitting the SETUP signal, the call is terminated. If it is determined that communication with the called party has been established, and the number of times it has been determined that communication with the called party has been established reaches a predetermined number of times, there is a disconnection of unconnected communication corresponding to the telephone number of the called party. Return the record to its initial state . The telephone directory management unit deletes the telephone number corresponding to the disconnection with no communication from the telephone directory information based on the number of disconnections with no communication.

According to one aspect of the telephone device and the telephone directory information management program disclosed in the present application, it is possible to easily manage the stored telephone directory.

Embodiments of the telephone device and telephone directory information management program disclosed in the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. Note that the telephone device and telephone directory information management program disclosed in the present application are not limited to the following embodiments. In particular, in the following description, a mobile phone will be used as an example of a telephone device, but there is no particular limitation as long as it is a telephone device, and for example, a landline telephone may be used.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a mobile phone according to a first embodiment and a second embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, a mobile phone 100 according to the present embodiment includes a wireless control section 1, a telephone directory storage section 2, a telephone directory management section 3, a call control section 4, a telephone control section 5, a history management section 6, an input It has a control section 7, a display control section 8, and a history recording section 9.

The wireless control unit 1 receives communication signals such as signals for making and disconnecting calls and voice data from the call control unit 4 . Signals for making and disconnecting calls will be explained in detail later. Then, the wireless control unit 1 converts the received signal into a wireless signal and transmits the wireless signal to the communication destination. The wireless control unit 1 also receives wireless signals from communication sources such as other mobile phones. Then, the radio control unit 1 converts the received radio signal into a voice signal or a signal that can be processed by the call control unit 4 and outputs it to the call control unit 4.

The call control unit 4 receives communication commands from the operator from the input control unit 7 . Then, the call control unit 4 transmits a calling signal for making a call to the communication destination. Hereinafter, the destination of the calling signal will be referred to as the "calling destination." In this embodiment, the call control unit 4 transmits a SETUP signal as a calling signal. Furthermore, when the call control section 4 makes a call, it outputs the call information including the information of the called party such as the telephone number to the telephone control section 5 .

The call control unit 4 also receives a response signal, which is a response to the calling signal, from the called party via the wireless control unit 1. When the call control unit 4 receives the response signal, the mobile phone 100 and the called party are connected and communication is established. By establishing communication, it becomes possible to talk between the mobile phone 100 and the called party. In this embodiment, the call control unit 4 receives a CALL-CONN signal as a response signal. In the following, the called party with whom communication has been established in this manner will be referred to as a "communication party." Furthermore, when the call control unit 4 receives a CALL-CONN signal from the called party, it outputs information on establishment of communication to the telephone control unit 5.

Further, the call control unit 4 receives a disconnection signal via the wireless control unit 1 when the called party or the communication partner transmits a disconnection signal. The call control unit 4 then disconnects the communication. For example, if the telephone number of the device itself is registered in the call rejection list of the called party, or even if the called party has made a set number of rings, the call control unit 4 may not be able to operate the called party. A disconnection signal is received if the person does not issue a response command. Further, the call control unit 4 receives a disconnection signal from the communication partner when the operator of the communication partner inputs a disconnection command. In this embodiment, the call control unit 4 receives a CLEAR signal as a disconnection signal. Further, when the call control unit 4 receives a CLEAR signal from the called party, it outputs disconnection information to the telephone control unit 5.

Conversely, the call control unit 4 receives a SETUP signal from another mobile phone or the like via the wireless control unit 1. In this way, when the call control unit 4 receives the SETUP signal, the mobile phone 100 receives an incoming call from the destination of the SETUP signal. Next, the call control section 4 outputs the telephone number of the originator of the SETUP signal to the telephone control section 5. Thereafter, upon receiving a disconnection command from the telephone control unit 5, it transmits a CLEAR signal, which is a disconnection signal, to the source of the SETUP signal. On the other hand, when receiving a response command from the input control unit 7 after receiving the SETUP signal, the call control unit 4 transmits a CALL-CONN signal, which is a response signal, to the source of the SETUP signal. Furthermore, when the call control section 4 transmits the CALL-CONN signal, it outputs information on establishment of communication to the telephone control section 5.

Further, when the call control unit 4 receives a disconnection command from the operator from the input control unit 7 after establishing communication, it transmits a CLEAR signal, which is a disconnection signal, to the communication partner. Furthermore, when the call control unit 4 transmits CLEAR information, it outputs disconnection information to the telephone control unit 5.

The call control unit 4 also receives input of communication data such as mail and voice data from the telephone control unit 5. Then, the call control unit 4 transmits the received communication data to the wireless control unit 1.

The telephone control unit 5 receives call information including call destination information from the call control unit 4 . Furthermore, when communication is established, telephone control section 5 receives communication establishment information from call control section 4 . Further, the telephone control unit 5 receives disconnection information from the call control unit 4 . Then, the telephone control section 5 outputs a series of information from call origination to disconnection to the history management section 6 together with information on the called party. Here, the series of information from call origination to disconnection does not include communication establishment information when communication is not established, and includes communication establishment information when communication is established.

Furthermore, when the telephone control section 5 receives a command to display the telephone directory from the input control section 7 , the telephone control section 5 reads out the telephone directory from the telephone directory storage section 2 . Then, the telephone control section 5 instructs the display control section 8 to display the read telephone directory.

Further, the telephone control section 5 receives input of voice data and mail data from the input control section 7 . Then, the telephone control section 5 outputs the received voice data and mail data to the call control section 4.

Further, the telephone control unit 5 receives a notification of deletion of a telephone number from the history management unit 6. Then, the telephone control section 5 instructs the display control section 8 to display a deletion message for the telephone number.

Further, the telephone control section 5 receives voice data from the call control section 4 . Then, the telephone control unit 5 causes a speaker (not shown) to output audio data. Further, the telephone control section 5 receives input of mail data from the call control section 4 . Then, the telephone control section 5 outputs the mail to the display control section 8, and instructs the display control section 8 to display the outputted mail.

The history recording unit 9 is a storage device such as a memory. The history recording unit 9 records communication information. Here, the communication information includes, for example, call origination information including call date and time and information on the call destination, and disconnection information including disconnection date and time. Furthermore, the history recording unit 9 stores the number of times the call was made but the call was disconnected without establishing communication. For example, in this embodiment, the history recording unit 9 stores the number of consecutive disconnections indicating how many consecutive disconnections without communication have occurred. FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of a continuous cutting frequency record table. The history recording unit 9 stores, for example, a continuous cutting frequency recording table 200 as shown in FIG. 2. In the continuous disconnection count record table 200, in association with the telephone number 201, a continuous disconnection count 202 indicating how many consecutive disconnections without communication has occurred is recorded. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the continuous disconnection count record table 200 includes a telephone directory deletion status 203 indicating whether or not the telephone number 201 has been deleted from the telephone directory.

The history management unit 6 receives a series of information from call origination to disconnection from the telephone control unit 5 together with information on the called party. Then, the history management unit 6 records, in the history recording unit 9, call information including call date and time and information of the called party, disconnection information including disconnection date and time, and the like.

Furthermore, if the series of information received from the call origination to the disconnection indicates that the call was disconnected without establishing communication after the call was made, the history management unit 6 determines that no communication disconnection has occurred. It is determined that the Then, the history management unit 6 refers to the continuous disconnection count record table 200 that the history recording unit 9 has, and records the received call destination's telephone number in the telephone number 201 column of the continuous disconnection count record table 200. Determine whether or not. When the telephone number of the received call destination is included in the continuous disconnection count record table 200, the history management unit 6 increments the column of the continuous disconnection count 202 corresponding to the telephone number and increases the number by 1. Then, the history management unit 6 determines whether the value in the column of the number of consecutive disconnections 202 for the received telephone number of the calling destination has reached 10. When the number of consecutive disconnections 202 is 10, the history management section 6 notifies the telephone control section 5 that the telephone number for which the number of consecutive disconnections 202 has reached 10 is to be deleted from the telephone directory. At the same time, the history management section 6 instructs the telephone directory management section 3 to delete from the telephone directory the telephone number for which the number of consecutive disconnections 202 has reached 10. Thereafter, the history management unit 6 changes the column of the telephone directory deletion status 203 of the consecutive disconnection count record table 200 corresponding to the telephone number for which the deletion instruction was given to deletion. For example, the number of consecutive disconnections 221 corresponding to the telephone number 211 in FIG. 2 is 10 times. Therefore, when the history management section 6 confirms that the number of consecutive disconnections 202 is 10, it notifies the telephone control section 5 that the telephone number 211 is to be deleted from the telephone directory. At the same time, the history management section 6 instructs the telephone directory management section 3 to delete the telephone number 211 from the telephone directory. Further, the history management unit 6 changes the telephone directory deletion status 222 of the continuous disconnection count record table 200 to deletion.

Here, in this embodiment, the threshold value for the number of consecutive disconnections is set to 10, but there is no particular limit to this value, and this threshold value is set according to operational conditions such as how many times a telephone number should be left. It is preferable.

Further, if there is no telephone number of the received call destination in the continuous disconnection count record table 200, the history management unit 6 adds the telephone number of the call destination to the telephone number 201 column, and further adds the telephone number of the call destination corresponding to the telephone number. The column for the number of consecutive cuts 202 is set to 1.

In addition, if the received series of information from call origination to disconnection indicates that communication has been established, the history management unit 6 determines that the received call destination telephone number is the same as the telephone number in the continuous disconnection count record table 200. It is determined whether or not it is written in the column numbered 201. When the telephone number of the received call destination is included in the continuous disconnection count record table 200, the history management unit 6 resets the column of the continuous disconnection count 202 corresponding to the telephone number to the initial value of 0. Here, in this embodiment, the initial value is 0, but this initial value may take other values, for example, 1 may be used as the initial value. In this manner, the history management unit 6 can count the number of consecutive disconnections for which communication has not been made by resetting the number of consecutive disconnections 202 for a telephone number with which communication has been established. This initial value of the number of consecutive disconnections corresponds to an example of the "initial state of recording that there has been a disconnection with no communication."

The telephone directory management section 3 receives an instruction from the history management section 6 to delete a telephone number listed in the telephone directory. Then, the telephone directory management section 3 searches the designated telephone number from the telephone directory stored in the telephone directory storage section 2. Then, the telephone directory management section 3 deletes the retrieved telephone number from the telephone directory. As a result, the telephone number that has been disconnected 10 times in a row is deleted from the telephone directory stored in the telephone directory storage section 2. In this embodiment, a telephone number that has been disconnected 10 times in a row is deleted from the telephone directory as an unnecessary telephone number, thereby making it possible to automatically delete unnecessary telephone numbers from the telephone directory. You can reduce the number of phone numbers registered in your book.

The input control unit 7 receives instructions from an operator using a keypad or the like. For example, the input control unit 7 receives an input of a telephone directory display command. Then, the input control section 7 notifies the telephone control section 5 of a telephone directory display command. The input control unit 7 also receives an input of a communication command to a specified telephone number from the telephone directory. The input control section 7 then transmits a communication command to the designated telephone number to the call control section 4. The input control unit 7 also receives dial input from a keypad. Then, the input control section 7 transmits the input telephone number to the call control section 4.

Display control section 8 receives a display command from telephone control section 5 and causes an image to be displayed on a monitor such as a liquid crystal screen. For example, the display control section 8 receives a telephone directory display command from the telephone control section 5 and displays the telephone directory on the monitor. The operator performs input using a keypad or the like while referring to the information displayed on the monitor by the display control unit 8. Further, when the display control unit 8 receives an instruction to display a message for deleting a telephone number from the telephone control unit 5, it causes the message for deleting the telephone number to be displayed on the monitor.

Next, with reference to FIG. 3, a description will be given of the telephone directory management process of the telephone device according to this embodiment. Here, FIG. 3 is a flowchart of the telephone directory management process of the telephone device according to the first embodiment.

The operator uses a keypad or the like to input a communication request including the telephone number of the communication destination (step S101). The input control section 7 transmits the communication request received from the operator to the call control section 4 .

The call control unit 4 receives a communication request from the input control unit 7. Then, the call control unit 4 makes a call to the specified communication destination (step S102). In this embodiment, the call control unit 4 transmits a SETUP signal to the communication destination.

Thereafter, the call control unit 4 determines whether a disconnection has occurred based on whether a CLEAR signal has been received (step S103). If disconnection has not occurred (No in step S103), the call control unit 4 waits until disconnection occurs.

On the other hand, if a disconnection occurs (Yes at step S103), the telephone control unit 5 receives the notification of the disconnection and sends the information from call origination to disconnection to the history management unit 6 of the called party. Send along with your phone number. Then, the history management unit 6 determines whether the received telephone number of the called party is registered in the telephone directory (step S104). When the history management unit 6 determines that the telephone number of the called party is not registered in the telephone directory (No in step S104), the process proceeds to step S111.

On the other hand, if the telephone number of the called party is registered in the telephone directory (Yes in step S104), the history management unit 6 checks the information from the call origination to the disconnection, and receives the CALL-CONN signal which is the response signal. It is determined whether or not (step S105). If a response signal has been received (Yes in step S105), the history management unit 6 resets the number of continuous disconnections in the continuous disconnection count record table corresponding to the telephone number of the called party to the initial value (step S106).

On the other hand, if the response signal has not been received (No in step S105), the history management unit 6 increments the number of consecutive disconnections by one in the continuous disconnection frequency record table corresponding to the called destination telephone number (step S105). S107).

Next, the history management unit 6 determines whether or not the incremented number of consecutive cuts has reached 10 (step S108). If the number has been deleted 10 times (Yes in step S108), the history management section 6 notifies the telephone control section 5 that the telephone number has been deleted. Then, the telephone control section 5 instructs the display control section 8 to display a telephone number deletion message. In response to this, the display control unit 8 displays a telephone number deletion message on the monitor (step S109).

Then, the history management section 6 notifies the telephone directory management section 3 of a command to delete the telephone number. Upon receiving the instruction from the history management section 6, the telephone directory management section 3 deletes the corresponding telephone number from the telephone directory stored in the telephone directory storage section 2 (step S110).

Further, if the called party is not in the telephone directory (No in step S104) and if the number of consecutive disconnections is reset (step S106), the history management unit 6 records the calling history in the history recording unit 9 (step S111). . Also, when the number of consecutive disconnections is less than 10 times (No in step S108), the history management section 6 records the calling history in the history recording section 9 (step S111). In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiment, an example was described in which the number of unconnected disconnections is recorded for each telephone number, and when the number of times reaches a predetermined value, the telephone number is deleted. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, if a record is added to the data table shown in Figure 2 that records the corresponding telephone number each time a disconnection occurs, and the number of records corresponding to one telephone number reaches a predetermined value, , an example may be considered in which the one telephone number is targeted for deletion. That is, when a disconnection with no communication occurs, the fact that the disconnection with no communication has occurred is recorded in association with the telephone number, and the telephone number to be deleted may be specified based on the number of occurrences.

Next, referring to FIG. 4, an outline of the operation of deleting a telephone number by the mobile phone according to this embodiment will be explained. FIG. 4 is a sequence diagram for explaining an example of the operation of deleting a telephone number by the mobile phone according to the first embodiment.

Mobile phones 301 to 303 in FIG. 4 each represent a separate mobile phone. Here, the operation of the mobile phone 301 will be explained. Mobile phone 301, mobile phone 302, and mobile phone 303 are each capable of wireless communication. The lines extending downward from each of the mobile phones 301 to 303 toward the paper surface represent the operation of each mobile phone, and the end point of the arrow indicates reception of a signal, and the start point of the arrow indicates signal reception. represents the transmission of Further, arrows connecting lines extending downward from each of the mobile phones 301 to 303 toward the page represent transmission of a signal from the starting point to the ending point. Further, histories 401 to 404 each represent the communication history of the mobile phone 301 at the timing of the starting point of each dotted line arrow. Further, the telephone directory 501 represents the telephone directory in a state before the telephone number deletion shown in FIG. 4 is performed. Further, the telephone directory 502 represents the state of the telephone directory after the telephone numbers shown in FIG. 4 have been deleted.

Before the telephone number deletion shown in FIG. 4 is performed, as shown in the telephone directory 501, the telephone numbers of the mobile telephone 302 and the mobile telephone 303 are registered in the mobile telephone 301.

Mobile phone 301 transmits a SETUP signal to mobile phone 302, and mobile phone 302 receives this SETUP signal (step S201). Next, mobile phone 302 transmits a CALL-CONN signal to mobile phone 301, and mobile phone 301 receives this CALL-CONN signal (step S202). Next, mobile phone 302 transmits a CLEAR signal to mobile phone 301, and mobile phone 301 receives this CLEAR signal (step S203).

Here, communication is established between mobile phone 301 and mobile phone 302 after the call is made, and then disconnection occurs. You can now talk to.

Next, mobile phone 301 transmits a SETUP signal to mobile phone 303, and mobile phone 303 receives this SETUP signal (step S204). Next, mobile phone 303 transmits a CALL-CONN signal to mobile phone 301, and mobile phone 301 receives this CALL-CONN signal (step S205). Next, mobile phone 303 transmits a CLEAR signal to mobile phone 301, and mobile phone 301 receives this CLEAR signal (step S206).

Here, communication is established between the mobile phone 301 and the mobile phone 303 after the call is made, and then disconnection occurs, so as shown in the history 402, after the call with the mobile phone 302 is OK, A call with the mobile phone 303 is now OK.

Next, mobile phone 301 transmits a SETUP signal to mobile phone 302, and mobile phone 302 receives this SETUP signal (step S207). Next, mobile phone 302 transmits a CLEAR signal to mobile phone 301, and mobile phone 301 receives this CLEAR signal (step S208).

Here, communication between the mobile phone 301 and the mobile phone 302 is disconnected without being established, so as shown in the history 403, the mobile phone 301 and the mobile phone 302 after the call on the mobile phone 303 is accepted. The communication history with the communication is disconnected. In FIG. 4, to make it easier to understand the number of consecutive disconnections without communication, the number of consecutive disconnections is added after the disconnection with no communication.

It is assumed that a disconnection due to no communication occurs between the mobile phone 301 and the mobile phone 302 eight times in a row between after step S208 and up to step S209.

Furthermore, the mobile phone 301 transmits a SETUP signal to the mobile phone 302, and the mobile phone 302 receives this SETUP signal (step S209). Next, mobile phone 302 transmits a CLEAR signal to mobile phone 301, and mobile phone 301 receives this CLEAR signal (step S210).

Here, since communication has not been established between the mobile phone 301 and the mobile phone 302 and disconnection has occurred, as shown in the history 404, after 9 disconnections of communication with the mobile phone 302 have occurred, , the communication history with the mobile phone 302 indicates that the communication was disconnected. At this point, as shown in the history 404, disconnection from the mobile phone 302 has occurred ten times in a row. Therefore, the history management unit 6 of the mobile phone 301 determines that disconnection of communication with the mobile phone 302 has occurred ten times in a row (step S211).

History management section 6 instructs telephone directory management section 3 to delete the telephone number of mobile phone 302 from the telephone directory. The telephone directory management section 3 deletes the telephone number of the mobile phone 302 from the telephone directory stored in the telephone directory storage section 2 (step S212).

As a result, like the phone directory 502, the phone number of the mobile phone 302 is deleted and only the phone number of the mobile phone 303 remains. In this way, the unnecessary telephone number of the mobile phone 302 is automatically deleted from the telephone directory.

As explained above, the telephone device according to the present embodiment automatically retrieves the telephone number from the telephone directory when a predetermined number of disconnections occur consecutively in communication to a certain telephone number. delete. Thereby, it is possible to delete telephone numbers that are considered unnecessary from the telephone directory, and it is possible to suppress the increase in the number of telephone numbers registered in the telephone directory. Therefore, the telephone directory can be easily managed and telephone numbers can be searched quickly.

Here, in the above explanation, when a response signal is received, the number of consecutive disconnections of the sender of the response signal is reset, and the telephone number is reset when the number of consecutive disconnections reaches a predetermined value. I decided to delete it. However, the value used for determining whether to delete a telephone number does not have to be the number of consecutive disconnections without communication. For example, it may be deleted simply when the cumulative number exceeds a predetermined value. In that case, it is not necessary to reset the number of disconnections of uncommunicative communication. Further, the count of the number of missed communication disconnections may not be reset until the response signal is received a predetermined number of times.

Further, in the above description, if the number of disconnections of unconnected telephone numbers continues for a predetermined number of times, the telephone number is deleted, but the deletion may be performed after waiting for confirmation from the operator.

Next, a telephone device according to a second embodiment will be explained. The telephone device according to the present embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the telephone device resets the number of consecutive disconnections even when receiving an incoming call or an automatic reply mail from the other party. In the following, a mobile phone will be described as an example of a telephone device. The mobile phone according to this embodiment is also represented by the block diagram in FIG. Unless otherwise specified below, each part having the same reference numeral as in the first embodiment has the same function.

The telephone control section 5 receives notification from the call control section 4 of an incoming call from another telephone, that is, reception of a SETUP signal. Then, the telephone control section 5 transmits the notification of the incoming call and the telephone number of the destination of the SETUP signal to the history management section 6.

Further, the telephone control section 5 receives an automatic reply mail from the call control section 4 in response to a call made by the call control section 4 . Here, the automatic reply mail is a mail that notifies the user that the user cannot answer the phone when the SETUP signal is received in a state where the user cannot answer the phone. If the operator is unable to receive a call, the operator can set the automatic reply email function in advance so that when a SETUP signal is received, an automatic reply email will be automatically sent to the sender of the SETUP signal. Ru. For example, an automatic reply email has information added to the header indicating that the email is an automatic reply email. Therefore, by referring to the header of the received e-mail, the telephone control unit 5 can determine that the e-mail is an automatic reply e-mail. This automatic reply email is an example of a "response addition notification."

In this embodiment, it is assumed that the telephone directory stores e-mail addresses in correspondence with telephone numbers. The telephone control unit 5 searches the telephone directory using the email address of the received automatic reply email and obtains the telephone number of the sender of the automatic reply email. Then, the telephone control section 5 notifies the history management section 6 of the reception of the automatic reply mail and the telephone number of the sender of the automatic reply mail. Here, in this embodiment, a case has been described in which a system for communicating using an email address is used as an automatic reply email, but other systems may also be used. For example, SMS (Short Message Service), etc. May be used. For example, when using SMS as an automatic reply email, the address of the email is a telephone number, so the telephone control unit 5 can acquire the sender's telephone number from the automatic reply email.

The history management section 6 receives the telephone number of the originator of the SETUP signal and the notification of the incoming call from the telephone control section 5 . Then, the history management unit 6 resets the number of continuous disconnections in the continuous disconnection count record table corresponding to the telephone number of the originator of the SETUP signal.

Further, the history management section 6 receives a notification of receipt of the automatic reply mail and the telephone number of the sender of the automatic reply mail from the telephone control section 5. Then, the history management unit 6 resets the number of continuous disconnections in the continuous disconnection count record table corresponding to the telephone number of the sender of the automatic reply mail.

Next, with reference to FIG. 5, a process of resetting the number of consecutive disconnections due to incoming calls in the mobile phone according to this embodiment will be described. FIG. 5 is a flowchart of a process for resetting the number of consecutive disconnections due to incoming calls in a mobile phone according to the second embodiment.

The call control unit 4 receives an incoming call from another mobile phone by receiving a SETUP signal from the other mobile phone via the wireless control unit 1 (step S301). Then, the call control section 4 notifies the telephone control section 5 that the call has been received together with the telephone number of the originator of the SETUP signal.

Then, the call control unit 4 determines whether to perform the disconnection based on reception of a CLEAR signal from the communication partner or reception of a disconnection command from the operator of the own device (step S302). If the disconnection is not to be performed (No in step S302), the call control unit 4 waits until the disconnection is performed.

On the other hand, if disconnection is to be performed (Yes at step S302), telephone control section 5 receives a notification of disconnection from call control section 4. Then, the telephone control section 5 transmits the telephone number of the originator of the SETUP signal and a notification that the call has been received to the history management section 6. The history management section 6 searches the telephone directory for the telephone number received from the telephone control section 5, and determines whether the caller's telephone number is registered in the telephone directory (step S303). If it is not registered in the telephone directory (No in step S303), the history management unit 6 ends the process of resetting the number of consecutive disconnections.

On the other hand, if the telephone number is registered in the telephone directory (Yes in step S303), the history management unit 6 records the continuous disconnections corresponding to the caller's telephone number in the continuous disconnection count record table stored in the history recording unit 9. It is determined whether there is a record of the number of times (step S304). If there is no record of the number of consecutive disconnections corresponding to the caller's telephone number in the consecutive disconnection count record table (No in step S304), the history management unit 6 ends the process of resetting the number of consecutive disconnections.

On the other hand, if there is a record of the number of consecutive disconnections corresponding to the telephone number of the caller in the consecutive disconnection count record table (Yes at step S304), the history management unit 6 records the number of consecutive disconnections corresponding to the telephone number of the caller in the consecutive disconnection count record table. The number of consecutive cuts is reset (step S305).

Next, with reference to FIG. 6, a process of resetting the number of consecutive disconnections by receiving an automatic reply email in the mobile phone according to the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 6 is a flowchart of a process of resetting the number of consecutive disconnections due to reception of an automatic reply email in a mobile phone according to the second embodiment.

Telephone control section 5 receives mail from another mobile phone via radio control section 1 and call control section 4 (step S401).

Then, the telephone control unit 5 determines whether the received email is an automatic reply email (step S402). If it is not an automatic reply mail (No in step S402), the telephone control unit 5 and the history management unit 6 end the process of resetting the number of consecutive disconnections.

On the other hand, in the case of an automatic reply mail (Yes at step S402), the telephone control unit 5 acquires the telephone number of the sender of the automatic reply mail from the telephone directory. Then, the telephone control section 5 transmits the telephone number of the sender of the automatic reply mail and information indicating that the automatic reply mail has been received to the history management section 6. The history management section 6 searches the telephone directory for the telephone number received from the telephone control section 5, and determines whether the caller's telephone number is registered in the telephone directory (step S403). If it is not registered in the telephone directory (No in step S403), the history management unit 6 ends the process of resetting the number of consecutive disconnections.

On the other hand, if the telephone number is registered in the telephone directory (Yes in step S403), the history management unit 6 records the continuous disconnections corresponding to the caller's telephone number in the continuous disconnection count record table stored in the history recording unit 9. It is determined whether there is a record of the number of times (step S404). If there is no record of the number of consecutive disconnections corresponding to the caller's telephone number in the consecutive disconnection count record table (No in step S404), the history management unit 6 ends the process of resetting the number of consecutive disconnections.

On the other hand, if there is a record of the number of consecutive disconnections corresponding to the telephone number of the caller in the consecutive disconnection count record table (Yes at step S404), the history management unit 6 records the number of consecutive disconnections corresponding to the telephone number of the caller in the consecutive disconnection count record table. The number of consecutive cuts is reset (step S405).

As described above, when the telephone device according to the present embodiment receives an incoming call or receives an automatic reply email, it resets the number of consecutive disconnections corresponding to the telephone number of the caller. As a result, although the number of consecutive missed calls has accumulated, if a call is received from the other party during a period of consecutive missed calls, or if a missed call occurs due to a state where the call cannot be answered, , it can be determined that the telephone number is a necessary telephone number. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a phone number from being judged as an unnecessary phone number when it is actually necessary, and it is possible to make a more detailed phone call compared to simply determining whether a phone number is necessary based on the number of consecutive disconnections. Able to manage books.

Here, in the above description, the number of consecutive disconnections is reset both when an incoming call is received and when an automatic reply email is received, but this may be reset only in either case. Even if you perform a reset for only one of them, it is possible to manage the telephone directory in a more detailed way than simply determining whether a telephone number is necessary based on the number of consecutive disconnections. can.

Furthermore, in the above explanation, the number of consecutive disconnections is reset using an incoming call or an automatic reply email as a trigger, but this trigger can also be triggered by information that can determine whether or not a phone number is necessary, such as information that can confirm the use of a phone number. If so, other information may be used. For example, when a regular email is sent, the number of consecutive disconnections corresponding to the sender's phone number may be reset.

Furthermore, in the above description, the number of consecutive disconnections is reset using the reception of some information from another mobile phone as a trigger, but for example, when receiving an instruction to reset the number of consecutive disconnections from an operator, The number of consecutive cuts may be reset.
