4 is a flow chart illustrating a method of providing a guidement through the flight mode switch according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Prior to describing the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, the mobile communication terminal 100 (A) is defined as a terminal to which a flight mode is set, and the mobile communication terminal 100 (B) is a terminal to which a flight mode is set. It will be defined and defined as a calling terminal that attempts to receive a call.

First, when the flight mode button 101-1 is pressed according to a user's operation and the mobile communication terminal 100 (A) is switched to the flight mode (S11), the switch 200 (A) is the mobile communication terminal 100. In response to the flight mode switching of (A), the flight mode registration message is transmitted to the home location register 300 (S12).

Here, when the user sets the flight mode by pressing the flight mode button 101-1 of the mobile communication terminal 100 (A), as shown in Figure 5, the mobile communication terminal 100 (A) is the flight In response to the selection of the mode button 101-1, the flight mode setting signal is transmitted (S17), TX process (not shown) is controlled to stop TX transmission (S18), and as shown in FIG. 2, the LCD display unit In operation S19, the flight mode is displayed through the display 102.

Next, the home location register 300 registers (FLY_REG) the status information of the mobile communication terminal 100 (A) in flight in response to the flight mode registration message provided from the switch 200 (A) (S13). .

In this case, as shown in FIG. 2, the mobile communication terminal 100 (A) displays the flight mode state of the terminal so that the user can recognize the terminal through the LCD display 102.

Next, when an incoming call is attempted to the mobile communication terminal 100 (A) registered to fly by another mobile communication terminal 100 (B), the exchange 200 (B) is the outgoing mobile communication terminal 100 (B) provides a flight guidance to inform the flight mode (S14).

At this time, the announcement may be provided with the message "You are currently in flight. Please try again later."

Next, when the flight mode button is reselected from the flying registered mobile communication terminal 100 (A) (S15), the flight mode state of the mobile communication terminal 100 (A) is changed to the normal mode ( S16). Then, the home location register 300 registers the flying registration (FLY_REG) of the mobile communication terminal 100 (A) changed from the flight mode to the normal mode as the idle (IDLE) to change the state.

Meanwhile, when an incoming call of the mobile communication terminal 100 (B) of another exchanger 200 (B) is attempted to the flying registered mobile communication terminal 100 (A), as shown in FIG. 200, (B) requests the authentication and inquiry of the mobile communication terminal 100 (A) to the home location register (300) (S21), the home location register 300 is requested for authentication and inquiry is the mobile communication It is determined whether the terminal 100 (A) is a flying registration (FLY_REG) (S22).

At this time, if the mobile communication terminal (100) (A) is flying registration, the home location register 300 provides a message announcement message corresponding to the flight mode to the exchange (200) (B) (S23), the mobile communication If the terminal 100 (A) is not flying status registration, it provides the normal registration position information to the switch 200 (B) (S24).

Next, the exchange 200 (B) provided with the announcement message sent out as described above step 14 (S14), "You are currently in flight. Please call again after a while." Provided to the mobile communication terminal 100 (B).

In addition, the mobile communication terminal 100 (A) of the present invention transmits the flight mode setting signal by selecting the flight mode button 101-1 according to the user's operation, and then TX transmission is stopped through the control of the TX process. In the flight mode, the terminal user operates additional functions other than the call of the terminal, for example, querying various pictures stored in the terminal, managing schedule schedules, inquiring downloaded contents, and playing downloaded MP3 files. In control, the processing operation is performed accordingly.

As described above, the present invention stops the TX transmission of the mobile phone during the flight and enables the terminal user to use various pictures, schedules, and additional information stored in the mobile phone while the power is not turned off, thereby increasing the convenience of the customer. When an incoming call is attempted to the mobile communication terminal set to the flight mode, it provides an advantage of preventing unnecessary misunderstandings of the caller by making a call to the caller.
