1 to 5 will be described in detail the operation of the preferred embodiment of the present invention.

First, in order to notify a callable time when the mobile phone is powered off, a callable time must be registered. Referring to FIG. 3, an operation of registering the callable time is described with reference to FIG. 3. In step 201, the controller 10 receives a call input time from the key input unit 110. If the power-off guide function registration key is input through the interface unit 50 and the power-off guide function registration key is input, the process proceeds to step 202. In step 202, the control unit 10 displays a time input request message available for communication through the display unit 90. In this case, the user checks the time input request message displayed on the display unit 90 and inputs a callable time. In step 203, the controller 10 inputs the user input from the key input unit 110 through the interface unit 50. Receives a callable time is stored in the memory 20 and proceeds to step 204. In step 204, the controller 10 sets a power off guide function to the memory 20. Here, the power-off guide function means that when the user turns off the mobile phone, if the user registers the available time in advance, the available time is registered in the voicemail box of the base station before the power off key is pressed and the power is turned off. It is the function to send the caller the voice guidance message about the available time.

After the power-off guide function is set as described above, the operation of performing the power-off guide function when there is a call will be described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. 4 and 5. In step 301, the controller 10 supplies power from the key input unit 110. Check whether the OFF key is pressed and go to step 302 when the power off key is pressed. In step 302, the controller 10 checks whether the power-off guide function is set. If the power-off guide function is not set, the controller 10 controls the power supply unit 120 to turn off the mobile phone. However, if the power-off guide function is set, the controller 10 proceeds to step 303 and generates a power-off guide function setting code (power off guide function request signal) and transmits it to the base station apparatus BTS 110.

In this case, the BTS 110 checks that the power off guide function setting code has been received in step 401, and if the power off guide function setting code is received, proceeds to step 402. In step 402, the controller 10 transmits a response signal indicating that the power off guide function setting code has been received to the mobile phone 150. Then, the control unit 10 of the mobile phone 150 checks whether the power-off function setting code response signal is received from the receiving unit 70 through the interface 50 in step 304, and if the power-off function setting code response signal is received in step 305. Proceed. In step 305, the controller 10 reads the talkable time data registered in the memory 20 and transmits it to the BTS 110. In this case, the BTS 110 checks whether the reception of the callable time data is completed in step 403. When the reception of the callable time data is completed, the BTS 110 proceeds to step 404. In step 404, the BTS 110 stores the received talkable time data in the VLR (Visitor Location Register), sends the talkable time data to the MSC 100 through the BSC 108, and records it in the VMS 114. Proceed to step. In step 405, the BTS 110 transmits a time data registration completion response signal to the mobile phone 150. Then, the control unit 10 of the mobile phone 150 checks whether the time data registration complete response signal is received in step 306. When the time data registration complete response signal is received, the controller 10 proceeds to step 307 to control the power supply unit 120 to control the mobile phone 150. Turn off the power supply to each part of

Then, in step 406, the BTS 110 checks whether there is a call signal through the MSC 100, and if there is a call signal, it proceeds to step 407. In step 407, the BTS 110 notifies the MSC 100 that the power is turned off through the BSC 108. Then, the MSC 100 controls the VMS device 114 to perform a voicemail function, reads a callable time, and repeatedly transmits a voice guidance message to the caller informing the caller of the callable time by voice synthesis. For example, the above voice prompt is "Hello? I can't talk right now, so please call me again in the morning or after 0:00 PM. Thank you." Can be a voice prompt.

As described above, in the present invention, when a user cannot receive a call in a mobile phone, the user can register a call and then press the power-off key to form a channel with the base station to transmit a callable time data to the base station apparatus. After registering, turn off the power, and when there is a call from the mobile phone that is turned off, the voicemail of the mobile telephone exchange will be notified by voice message so that the caller will not need to answer the call on the mobile phone. There is an advantage to prevent outgoing.
