Description

Personalized Information System Using Mobile Device}

The present invention relates to a system for providing personal request information using a mobile terminal capable of providing information set by a user to a mobile terminal of a user in real time.

Today, with the development of mobile telecommunications, the convenience and cost of mobile phones have decreased, making mobile phones a necessity of life, and the number of subscribers has exploded.

Such mobile communication service technologies can be broadly classified into asynchronous service environments centered on Europe and synchronous services centered on North America. In addition, the IMT-2000 service is evolving around North America and Europe as a new mobile communication technology standard for delivering packets at high speed.

These mobile telecommunication companies are providing wireless Internet services to mobile terminals through a wireless application protocol called WAP (Wireless Application Protocol). Accordingly, users could access the Internet through the WAP service and obtain information such as securities and news.

However, the conventional mobile communication service has a disadvantage in that it takes a lot of time because the user accesses a site desired by the user and directly obtains information, thus increasing the communication fee and using it.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a system for providing personal request information using a mobile terminal capable of providing information set by a user to a mobile terminal of a user in real time.

3 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of an information providing server according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, the CP 420 according to the present invention is a kind of web server for providing a portal site and is connected on the Internet 410 to provide request information from a user. To this end, the CP 420 includes a control unit 421 for overall operation control, a network connection unit 422 for connecting to a network, an information database 423 for storing / managing data related to personal request information, and content information. And a content database 424 for storing / managing the data.

The information database 423 is for storing / managing personal request information set by the user, and storing / setting data set by the user accessing the CP 420 through the mobile terminal 100 or the personal terminal 430. Manage. The content database 424 is for storing / managing information of content to be provided to the user. In this embodiment, the content is stored / managed by the CP 420 and provided to the user as requested, but the information database 423 Information may be collected from another web server connected to the Internet 410 according to the personal request information stored in the information, and provided to the user.

Hereinafter will be described in detail the operation according to the present invention.

The user accesses the CP 420 connected to the Internet 410 through the mobile terminal 100 or the personal terminal 430 to set personal request information desired by the user, for example, stock quotes, financial information, or weather. Can be. The CP 420 stores and manages personal request information set by the user.

After setting the personal request information through the above method, the user can download the set personal request information in real time through the mobile terminal 100 and search for information. The method is as follows.

The controller 151 determines whether a trigger signal is generated (S10). As described above, the trigger signal may be generated by detecting the opening / closing detection unit 110 to open or close the flip or the folder of the mobile terminal 100. In addition, when the user manipulates a hot key or a hot key provided in the key input unit 120, the key input unit 120 may generate a trigger signal and transmit the trigger signal to the controller 151.

In step S10, if the control unit 151 receives a signal transmitted from the open / close detection unit 110 or the key input unit 120 and determines that a predetermined trigger signal is generated, the WAP server requests a message requesting personal request information according to preset data. Transmitting to the 320, and performs an information request to the CP (420) (S20). At this time, the control unit 151 of the mobile terminal 100 selects one of the mobile communication unit 152 or the wireless LAN communication unit 153 and through the BTS 210 of the mobile communication network or the AP 270 supporting the wireless LAN connection. You can send a message.

The control unit 421 of the CP 420 receiving the message requesting the personal request information collects the information according to the preset information according to the personal request information stored in the information database 423, and collects the collected information into the WAP server ( To 320). The controller 421 acquires information managed in the content database 424 or obtains information from an external server (not shown) connected to the Internet 410 and transmits the information to the WAP server 320.

The WAP server 320 converts the information transmitted from the CP 420 through a predetermined protocol and transmits the information to the mobile terminal 100. At this time, the transmission to the mobile terminal 100 is via a network to which the mobile terminal 100 is currently connected, either of the BTS 210 or the AP 270. Accordingly, the mobile terminal 100 may download the personal request information (S30).

The mobile terminal 100 having downloaded the personal request information displays the personal request information on the display unit 140 in a subtitle form on the entire screen or a part of the screen (S40) so that the user can check the personal request information in real time.

In the present embodiment, the data about the personal request information is stored and managed in the CP 420 and collected according to a request from the mobile terminal 100 and transmitted to the mobile terminal 100, or in the mobile terminal 100. Personal request information may be stored and managed, and the information may be requested to the CP 420.

According to the system for providing personal request information using a mobile terminal according to the present invention as described above, the user sets the information set by the user in response to an input or flip through a hotkey including a hotkey or a trigger signal generated by opening and closing a folder in real time. By downloading and displaying the information on the mobile terminal of the user, the user can provide the user with the desired personal request information without performing a separate access procedure.
