Characterized in that it comprises a step.

The present invention also provides a chat service system having a large capacity processor, comprising: a first function of determining whether a chat service is being connected to a chat server by receiving an invitation command from a chat service user to a chat target; A second function of inviting a chat room to a chat room according to a command of the chat server when the chat subject is connected to the chat server as a result of the determination of the first function; And a third party for confirming the communication device number of the stored chat subject and transmitting information necessary for the invitation to the chat apparatus of the chat subject if the chat subject is not connected to the chat server as a result of the determination of the first function. A computer readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for realizing the function is provided.

The present invention is achieved by inviting a chat to a chat device of a chat subject, which is a terminal capable of receiving a mobile telephone, a pager, or other messages, for a chat subject not connected to the chat server.

The above objects, features and advantages will become more apparent from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is an exemplary configuration diagram of a system for a chat service to which the present invention is applied.

The system for the chat service includes a terminal 101 of a chat inviter, a chat server 102, a short message service (SMS) server 104, a connection server 103, and a short professional service (SMS) center 105. ), The wireless network 106 and the communication device 107 of the invitee.

In order to invite to chat with the other party who is not in the same chat space, the chat server 102 needs to know the communication device 107 number of the chat subject. Therefore, it is generally easier to implement in Closed Users Group (CUG) than open chat service.

The chat server 102 should be able to manage this using a database or file system for access ID, password, and number of owned communication device to the subscriber.

Of course, if the management of the subscriber's communication device number is not made separately, it is possible to invite by receiving the chat device's communication device number from the chat inviter using the chat server (102).

The chat server 102 must be able to communicate with a short message service (SMS) server 104 that can send a short message through its own function in the program or the interface with a function and module operating at the operating system level. do. If it is difficult to connect directly with the SMS server 104, another connection server 103 exists between them, so that the message transmission between the chat server 102 and the SMS server 104 is possible. I can connect you.

The chat invitation through the communication device 107 of the chat subject is requested by the chat inviter's terminal 101 using the chat service, so that the chat server 102, the connection server 103, and a single professional service (SMS) server 104 are connected. By the way, it is transmitted through the SMS Professional Center (105) and the wireless network 106.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a method for providing a counterpart chat service through a communication device according to the present invention.

In a method of providing a service for inviting a chat target by using wireless communication, a visitor first finds a counterpart who wants to chat while connected to the chat server 102. This may be delivered through a command supported by the chat service. In order for the command to be applied, the partner to be invited or receive a message must be a valid visitor existing in the logically connected chat server 102, but the chat server 102 If this is not found, a short message calling module for SMS is used in a mobile phone system such as cellular or personal cellular communication.

The chat server 102 first checks whether there is a person to find in the logical chat server 102, and if not, finds the communication device 107 number of the chat subject to find by referring to the database or file managing the subscriber profile. When not managing the communication device 107 number of the chat subject, the chat inviter receives the communication device 107 number of the chat subject.

The chat server 102 is a chat server 102 or connection server 103 for information such as the target communication device 107 number, the inviter ID, the chat server name and the chat room name (or channel name) and the chat room password in the case of a private chat room. Pass it to the single call calling module in). The single-professional calling module converts the information received from the chat server 102 into a data format that can be understood by the single-specialized service (SMS) server 104 and passes the information to the single-specialized service (SMS) server. For example, the following message type could be created. "000 wants to chat with the 00 chat server: 0000 rooms. Password: ****". The content and format of the message to be sent can be converted into various forms. If such a message is received while moving, the invited person can connect to the chat server using the owned communication equipment and have a chat.

This will be described according to the flow shown in the drawings.

A user who accesses a chat server that can invite a person to chat with is invited to the desired chat target, and the chat server 102 commanded to this is whether the chat target desired by the user is connected to the chat server 102. Determine (201). As a result of the determination, when the chat subject is connected to the chat server 102, the chat subject is invited to the chat room in a conventional manner (202).

As a result of determining whether the chat subject is accessing the chat server 102, if the chat subject is not connected to the chat server 102, the chat subject checks the communication device 107 number of the chat subject reported by the chat subject (203). In addition, the server transmits information required for the invitation, such as a chat server name, a chat room name, a chat room password, a communication device 107 number of the invitee, etc. to a short message calling module (204). Single-professional calling module converts the information required to invite the chat subject received from the chat server 102 into a data form that can be understood by the single-professional service (SMS) server 104 (205), single-professional service (SMS) server The converted information is transmitted (104) (206). Single professional service (SMS) server 104 delivers the invitation message to the chat subject through the single professional service (SMS) center (207).

The present invention described above is not limited to the above-described embodiments and the accompanying drawings, and various substitutions, modifications, and changes can be made in the art without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention. It will be apparent to those of ordinary knowledge.

As described above, the present invention transmits a chat request message of an inviter to a mobile communication terminal, a personal mobile communication (PCS) terminal, a wireless pager, or a communication device capable of receiving a message, thereby immediately chatting a request to a counterpart who is not connected to a chat server. You don't have to wait for an appointment or make an appointment in advance by connecting to the chat server from time to time, and if you receive a chat invitation on the go, your laptop, personal digital assistant (PDA) or handheld fish By using equipment such as (HPC: Handheld Personal Computer), it is possible to immediately connect to the chat server to which the inviter is connected and to have a chat, which is useful when an urgent conversation is needed.
