Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to can be provided at present the emotion icon messages converting system in the mobile communication system, more precisely relate to extract the emotion icon an of the best according to the size that user's output message and user are provided with message label, in conjunction with the message of emotion icon and output so that produce an emotion icon messages, the emotion icon messages that produces is offered the target mobile communication terminal, and further from the message of output, extract user's abbreviation notation, thereby provide one by the message that presets word and common phrases replacement abbreviation notation for the target mobile communication terminal
Background technology
In this invention, an emotion icon messages representative has also been represented the message that will insert a specific emotion icon in a short message except the mobile communication text message of being edited by the user.Generally speaking, the representative of emotion icon is used for transmitting to the other side the text message of emotion or intention.In the present invention, an emotion icon messages not only is confined to transmit emotion or intention, and has represented one in order to insert a text message, the message of a text formatting of being write in addition by the user.
Recently, for user's convenience,, additional various development have been arranged also for what mobile communication terminal provided as development of Communication Technique.In these, when telephone talk can not realize, text message (SMS: short message, LMS: long message) just be used for transmitting the content of wishing expression to the other side.
Simultaneously, the user for to express his/her intention uses the emotion icon in message, such emotion icon can be by combination general letter (for example, English and Korean) and special letter (for example, mark and line) acquisition.What use in the emotion icon is that the user edits or well-known content.For example, smiling face can represent with ' :) ' or ':-) ', look like a face of smiling when turning right.Again for example, when after a sentence " is felt good ", adding an emotion icon ' ^o^ ', when ' ^^ ' or ' ^.^ ', may just indicate to emphasize this impression.
In traditional Short Message Service, the user opens the short message editing menu of mobile communication terminal, input alphabet/numeral, and by the button of mobile communication terminal, this message will be sent to the other side, so just produces a short message.That is to say that the user presses the letter/number button of mobile communication terminal can import the content that will send to the other side, press the emotion icon that the letter/number button can input alphabet/combination of numbers, so just produced a short message with different order.
In traditional method, the user will select general letter/number/spcial character to make up them in order to insert an emotion icon in a short message successively.Therefore, the message of an emotion icon of editor is to make us very much irritated.In addition, because not every emotion icon all can provide in mobile communication terminal, and the user can not know all well-known emotion icons yet, therefore just can not represent exactly in this case and want the content expressed.Therefore, the other side can not understand the meaning of emotion icon representative in the short message exactly.In addition, in relevant technology, the size of the short message that transmit is limited, and for example, the method for transmission only allows to transmit 80 bytes.Therefore, along with the increase of the word quantity that will transmit to the other side, expressing institute's espressiove with limited transmission capacity in a short message has a lot of difficulties.
Simultaneously, at combination emotion icon of letter/digital editing or when editing a general text message, the user must come input alphabet/numeral by the limited button of mobile communication terminal.In addition, in order to edit a word or text, also need the input of the input of successive button at double and vowel at double.Therefore, the editting function of the text message of uncomfortable use mobile communication terminal is the user of the mode input alphabet by pressing button especially, uses text message by means of computer keyboard by the Internet usually.
Correspondingly, have a kind of technology to have to be badly in need of very much, promptly keep compatibility reliably according to relevant technology and text message technology, the user can express his/her emotion or intention better.In order to provide convenience, when text message of editor or emotion icon messages, use the button inputted number of times of mobile communication terminal to reduce as much as possible to the user.In addition, because the user uses paid text message, so the supplier of mobile communication can earn a profit.
General, in Korea S, the capacity that once sends a short message mobile communication terminal is 80 bytes.The emotion icon is connected to short message in, do not have the remaining space of edit messages to be used as the space that connects the emotion icon in 80 bytes.Therefore, remaining space is big more, and attachable expression kind is many more.But, in the relevant technology, in conjunction with short message and emotion icon the time, with the corresponding character code of carriage return and space by unconditional boundary between the two when being used for being set to emotion icon and short message and combining.Therefore, if remaining space has been wasted, the quantity of attachable emotion icon has just reduced.

Fig. 2 is the diagram that is used for showing according to the configuration of emotion icon messages converting system of the present invention.
As shown in Figure 2, emotion icon messages converting system comprises the message sink parts 20 of the 12 reception user short messages from the SMS center; User Recognition parts 21, it judges by detecting customer data base 15 whether this user has added the conversion of emotion icon messages, differentiate and the relevant prefabricated clauses and subclauses of emotion icon messages conversion of user's appointment that discriminating receives the terminal message of the target mobile communication terminal of short message; Message identification component 22, whether be used for discerning abbreviation notation inserts in the short message, whether identification label inserts in the short message, from the short message of being replaced by message replacement parts 28, separate sentence and label, sentence (following finger user message) is made up of the corresponding letter/number of content that expectation is delivered to the other side, analyzes the size of the user message of separating the tag computation separation so that calculate the remaining capacity (remaining space) of short message; The emotion icon extracts parts 23, is used for extracting from emotion icon/short text database 14 the emotion icon, and this emotion icon is by indicating with label after clauses and subclauses or analysis are preset in the relevant identification of emotion icon messages conversion; A short text extracts parts 27, is used for extracting from emotion icon/short text database 14 short text (word or common phrases) that is indicated by the abbreviation notation of discerning; Message is replaced parts 28, the short text that extracts is replaced with the abbreviation notation of the short message of identification; An emotion icon bonded block 24, whether the summation size of the estimation of emotion icon messages (also with regard to) that is used for examining the emotion icon sizes of the user message of separation and extraction (has for example surpassed the limit that short message transmits, 80 bytes), according to the result user's message is divided into plural user message, and the user message that separates and the emotion icon of extraction are combined; A transfer member 25 that transmits the emotion icon messages of combination to SMS center 12; A Internet matching block 26, it passes through mobile communication terminal 10 and/or computer 16 and the Internet and receives the customized of emotion icon messages conversion from mobile communication subscriber, the customized of emotion icon messages conversion is provided, this comprise by the function of web page editing short message, with the emotion icon messages change the function of relevant various setting clauses and subclauses and setting/inquiry abbreviation notation and with the function of the corresponding short text of abbreviation notation (word or common phrases).
In the present invention, label and message combine by various modes in the size limit that short message allows, and this label is to be inserted in the short message of mobile communication terminal 10 or to be inserted in the clauses and subclauses template corresponding type emotion icon (hereinafter finger print plate emotion icon) that is provided with relevant emotion icon messages conversion.Then, be converted into an emotion icon messages.Wherein, the program of user message and the combination of emotion icon will be described in relevant portion.
In the present invention, and the user agent's of the target mobile communication terminal of needs detection reception short message situation (for example, the pixel of LCD and the size of screen, whether message transfer method supports MMS, manufacturer's message and other similar situation).When the target mobile communication terminal was restricted on the message sink capacity, whether the size that needs to detect short message exceeded the limit (for example, 80 bytes) of transmission.If similar multimedia support terminal, there is not the restriction of message sink capacity in MMS phone for example, and the short message that the user edits just need not consider the restriction that short message transmits with combining of emotion icon.
The message sink parts 20 of the short message of mobile communication terminal 10 to message conversion service device 13 are transmitted at SMS center 12, and request short message is to the conversion of emotion icon messages.Further, SMS center 12 is sent to target mobile communication terminal 10 with the emotion icon messages of conversion.
Emotion icon/short text database 14 (has for example been stored a plurality of sizes, 1,2,3 ... 78,78,80 bytes) different emotion icons, also stored a plurality of mutual shapes different but represent the emotion icon of identical emotion effect, a plurality of user's appointments label, a plurality of by the user edit corresponding to the abbreviation notation of separately label emotion icon, user's appointment and with the corresponding short text of abbreviation notation (word or common phrases) separately.
Name, tag activation the option option of emotion icon (or forbid inserting), the emotion icon that customer data base 15 has been stored telephone number, the mobile communication terminal user of mobile communication terminal insert automatically option, short message divide option, by the preassigned emotion icon of user numerical value is set, the terminal message of mobile communication terminal (terminal message of portable communication terminal short transmission/reception) is (for example separately, whether support Multimedia Message, detailed description that terminal provides and similar message).
Personal messages by being stored in the user in the customer data base 15 (for example, whether the mobile communication terminal number has added emotion icon messages Transformation Service, user ID, password and similar situation), customized evaluation parts 21 detect the user and whether have added the mobile communication Transformation Service.In addition, the user identifies that parts 21 checkings are stored in the terminal message that clauses and subclauses and target mobile communication terminal reception short message be set relevant with the conversion of emotion icon messages in the customer data base.Clauses and subclauses are set comprise the option (maybe can not activate the label option) of forbidding inserting the emotion icon, the emotion icon inserts option automatically, and short message is cut apart option, and by the emotion icon set value of user's appointment.After this, the user identifies that parts 21 will need the message of emotion icon messages conversion to offer corresponding part.
For example, if the tag activation option that be provided with in clauses and subclauses relevant with the conversion of emotion icon messages is not set up, according to the label rule, the combination (for example, { @@} or similarly icon) that is inserted in the letter/number in the short message just can not be identified as a label.So, just can not be performed to conversion with the corresponding emotion icon messages of label.That is to say that the combination with the same letter/number of label of wishing to be sent to the other side will be prevented from the conversion to the emotion icon messages.In the setting clauses and subclauses relevant with the conversion of emotion icon messages, the user is provided with corresponding clauses and subclauses by mobile communication terminal 10 and/or computer 16 on the webpage that the Internet of message conversion service device 13 matching block 26 provides.Preferable is that user's personal messages is provided by corresponding mobile communication supplier.More particularly, the user can apply for the conversion of emotion icon messages to the supplier of mobile communication or the supplier of emotion icon messages conversion.
If the target mobile communication terminal (for example resembles multimedia-support terminal, MMS phone or similar terminal) like that without limits to the message sink capacity, the user identifies the short message that parts 21 impel content corresponding to edit in conjunction with the user immediately, and does not consider the transmission restriction of short message.
If the corresponding mobile communication user has added the conversion of emotion icon messages, receive of the conversion of the SMS center 12 meeting request short message of short message to the emotion icon messages from mobile communication terminal 10.Otherwise the SMS12 center is transmitted short message by traditional mode to the target mobile communication terminal.
As previously mentioned, evaluation is carried out by SMS center 12, so message conversion service device 13 can not detect the user and whether added emotion icon messages conversion.But in order to support the short message editing by webpage, message conversion service device 13 is carried out the ID of connection webpage and the evaluation of password.In this case, evaluation meeting is carried out twice so that protection user's message.
Short text extracts parts 27 and extracts the short text that the abbreviation notation discerned by message identification component 22 indicates from emotion icon/short text database 14, message is replaced parts 28 usefulness and is extracted the short text that parts 27 extract by short text and replace abbreviation notation, and this abbreviation notation is included in by in the short message of message identification component 22 identifications (or the short message that is received by message sink parts 20).
Table 1 has been enumerated abbreviation notation and corresponding short text (word or common phrases).
[table 1]
As shown in table 1, if the short message that the user edits comprise and resemble "
" such partials and former sound (abbreviation notation), abbreviation notation by common phrases "
" replace.Another example, in the short message "
" by common phrases "
" replace.
Simultaneously, message identification component 22 can separate users message and the label that inserts in the short message.If when not inserting abbreviation notation in the short message, the label that inserts in the short message of message identification component 22 meetings with user message and 20 receptions of message sink parts is separated.Further, the label that message identification component 22 is separated is so that provide the extraction message that corresponding emotion icon needs to message extraction parts 23, and calculate the size (with the size of label) of the user message that separates, so that calculate capacity remaining in the short message.Here, Yu Xia capacity is that the size that the transmission limit (for example, 80 bytes) of short message deducts user message obtains.Simultaneously, if the target mobile communication terminal is receiving aspect the message volume without limits, for example resemble the multimedia-support terminal the MMS phone, the combination of the short message edit of user and emotion icon need not considered the limit of short message transmission so.In this case, message identification component 22 does not need to calculate the size of user message and residual capacity.
Simultaneously, whether message identification component 22 tags detected are inserted in the short message of mobile communication terminal 10.If do not insert label, the emotion icon extracts parts 23 and differentiates that according to emotion icon value of setting or by the user emotion icon of parts 21 verifications inserts option automatically and extracts corresponding emotion icon.Here, label is a font type emotion icon index, can or directly be described in detail by mobile communication subscriber by the supplier of emotion icon messages conversion.Table 2 has been enumerated part label rule.
[table 2]
For example, if by '
The label of I love you ' representative and the combination of user message are inserted in the short message by the mobile communication subscriber editor, and short message will be converted into following emotion icon messages according to the label rule.
As mentioned above, the stencil-type be made up of a lot of spcial characters of emotion icon messages for example '
' and be inserted into user message " I love you " in the emotion icon in conjunction with obtaining.
If the tag activation option does not have not insert label in setting or the short message, if and the user identifies that parts 21 have verified that emotion icon set value is appointment, the emotion icon extracts parts 23 can extract a corresponding emotion icon that is indicated by emotion icon set value from emotion icon/short text database 14.Perhaps, 21 checking emotion icon set values do not have designated if the user identifies parts, and the emotion icon inserts option automatically and is activated, and the emotion icon extracts parts 23 and can extract a corresponding basic emotion icon from emotion icon/short text database 14 so.
On the other hand, if be provided with in tag activation option and the short message and inserted label, the emotion icon extracts parts 23 can extract a corresponding emotion icon from emotion icon/short text database 14, this emotion icon is to be indicated by the result that message identification component 22 is analyzed.Simultaneously, the emotion icon extracts parts 23 and extract an emotion icon from emotion icon/short text database 14, only size is arranged the residual capacity of the short message that this emotion icon calculates message identification component 22.The size of different mobile communication subscriber editors' short message is different.Accordingly, if identical emotion icon is applied in the different short message that inserts same label, the emotion icon can not be presented at according to the size of corresponding short message in the short message.
Simultaneously, if the target mobile communication terminal resemble multimedia-support terminal the MMS phone on the reception capacity without limits, the emotion icon extract parts 23 can be in the emotion icon of setting the emotion icon of extraction capacity maximum, need not consider remaining capacity.As the situation that the residual capacity of short message should be considered, the emotion icon extracts parts 23 and extract a big or small only emotion icon concerning the residual capacity that is calculated by message identification component 22 from emotion icon/short text database 14.Another one example, emotion icon extract parts 23 and extract an emotion icon that comprises the corresponding space character of size of the user message that calculates with message identification component 22 from emotion icon/short text databases 14.In addition, the emotion icon extracts parts 23 from comprising that extracting one in the middle of the emotion icon with the corresponding space character of user message size limits big or small only emotion icon to the message carry electrode.In the above-described embodiment, extract the big or small only emotion icon selection of parts 23 extractions so that transmit the big or small identical of the limit (for example, 80 bytes) by the emotion icon with short message.That is to say that in the present invention, mobile communication subscriber editor's whole user message can be replaced by the emotion icon of a special full page or leaf.In addition, a user message can be provided with in the emotion icon that is inserted into above-mentioned full page or leaf according to an emotion icon or user.Perhaps, a user message can be replaced simply so that only transmit the emotion icon of a full page or leaf.
As the another one example, the emotion icon extracts parts 23 and extracts an emotion icon according to the gap size of the user message that is calculated by message identification component 22 from emotion icon/short text database 14, and the size of this emotion icon is no more than the interval of the residual capacity of the message of being calculated by message identification component 22.That is to say that the user message of short message is divided into constant interval, size is near the short message residual capacity but be no more than emotion icon at interval and be extracted out, so that show in the short message at user message at interval corresponding.Simultaneously, the emotion icon of identical shaped and same emotion expression service effect or difformity is arranged and the emotion icon of identical emotion expression service effect also is extracted is out arranged.When the user message class interval is arranged on 10 bytes, if user message is 15 bytes, user message can be considered to one and is included in 11 to 20 message in the byte interval so, and the emotion icon that size is no more than 60 bytes is confirmed to be only emotion icon.Accordingly, the size of emotion icon messages becomes 75 bytes (15 bytes+60 bytes), can not exceed the limit that short message transmits.The Internet matching block 26 is passed through by the mobile communication subscriber setting in the user message class interval.
As mentioned above, '
The emotion icon representation of I love you ' is as follows;
But, although as shown below '
I love you very much, the corresponding emotion icon of Sun-Young ' can be expressed as follows (different shapes is expressed identical emotion), and still preferable is the transmission limit that the emotion icon messages does not exceed short message.
In addition, cut apart option (so-called many message activations option) and be not provided with (just if the user identifies parts 21 checking short messages, conversion to the emotion icon messages), the emotion icon extracts the extraction of the easier execution of parts 23 meetings to aforesaid best emotion icon.But, cut apart option and activate if the user identifies parts 21 confirmation short messages, then do not consider best emotion icon.Such example is applicable to target mobile communication terminal conditional situation aspect the message sink capacity.For the emotion icon an of the best, the template that heap(ed) capacity is arranged is for can at first be extracted out in conjunction with short message.
If the target mobile communication terminal is restricted aspect the message sink capacity, emotion icon bonded block 24 can estimation amounts to the result that the size of the user message that message identification components 22 separate and emotion icon extract the size of the emotion icon that parts 23 the extract specified emotion icon of emotion icon set value of user, basic emotion icon or the appointment of the corresponding emotion icon of label (just, by).After this, emotion icon bonded block 24 detects and estimates whether result's (estimated size of emotion icon messages) has exceeded the transmission limit.Further, if the estimation result does not exceed the transmission limit of short message, emotion icon bonded block 24 can be at once in conjunction with user message and emotion icon.Simultaneously, if the target mobile communication terminal (for example resembles multimedia one support terminal, the MMS phone) like that on the message sink capacity without limits, so preferable situation is that emotion icon bonded block 24 is immediately in conjunction with user message and emotion icon and do not consider to estimate the result.
When the target mobile communication terminal is restricted aspect the message sink capacity, and if the result of estimation exceeded the limit that short message transmits, the user identifies that parts 21 can the checking short messages cut apart option and whether be set up.Then, emotion icon bonded block 24 can be divided into a plurality of message to user message and user message and the emotion icon cut apart are combined accordingly.Just, the remaining capacity of short message was cut apart corresponding letter/number in the user message in turn with the order of arranging after emotion icon bonded block 24 inserted according to the emotion icon.Then, emotion icon bonded block 24 produce a plurality of user messages and in conjunction with the user message of cutting apart accordingly and emotion icon so that convert a plurality of emotion icon messages to.Perhaps, emotion icon bonded block 24 is not considering that the emotion icon inserts under the situation of residual capacity of back short message in conjunction with user message and emotion icon so that convert an emotion icon messages to.Then, emotion icon bonded block 24 can be in the limit that short message transmits as much as possible the emotion icon messages is converted to a plurality of emotion icon messages.
In addition, if having exceeded the limit and the user of short message transmission, the result of emotion icon bonded block 24 checking estimations identifies that the option of cutting apart of parts 21 checking short messages is not set up, emotion icon bonded block 24 can inform that mobile communication terminal 10 emotion icon messages overflow so, can guide the user that short message is set and cut apart option, may impel only is that user's message is sent to the target mobile communication terminal, or can be in conjunction with user message with in conjunction with incomplete emotion icon (because restriction display part emotion icon of short message capacity).On the other hand, if the target mobile communication terminal resemble multimedia-support terminal (for example, the MMS phone) like that on the short message receiving amount of accommodating without limits, the function of above emotion icon bonded block 24 just can not carried out.
Realization can have variety of way in conjunction with the program of the emotion icon of user message and extraction.(1) first kind of mode is to replace user message with an emotion icon, and emotion icon after the replacement and the emotion icon that extracts are combined into an emotion icon; (2) second way be user message insert space in the emotion icon partly or entirely; (3) the third mode is to insert an emotion icon in the front or the back of user message.Best situation is, uses the second way, and it is big or small identical and comprise in a large amount of space character emotion icons (template emotion icon) that user message is inserted into the transmission limit of and short message.Just, when label when for example ' { love} ' is inserted in the short message that the user edits, one has the template emotion icon of 80 bytes of a flower or heart shape to be extracted out, will be converted into an emotion icon messages in the space of user message ' love ' insertion template emotion icon.Correspondingly, user's emotion can obtain effectively expressing in a very little note.
Provide a customized webpage of emotion icon messages Transformation Service by the Internet matching block 26 of Internet connection on mobile communication terminal 10 and/or computer, a short message editing webpage, various facility settings relevant with the conversion of emotion icon messages (for example, select the tag activation option, select the emotion icon to insert option automatically, select short message to cut apart option, specify emotion icon set value and similarly setting) webpage, a corresponding abbreviation notation of setting/request and corresponding with it short text (word or common phrases) webpage.Ordinary person to this area signs the Internet matching block 26 by mobile communication.In addition, according to user's request, mobile communication terminal 10 can be apprised of the conversion of emotion icon messages and normally be carried out.Further, the emotion icon transformation can be charged by every month, can charge according to the quantity that transmits short message, can also charge according to the quantity that transmits the emotion icon.In this detailed description of the invention, short message has been described to a kind of example, the people who has common skill in this area can understand easily, and the present invention can be applied in long message and the Multimedia Message, and the limit that short message transmits is not subjected to the special restriction of size.
Fig. 3 A is the flow chart of the emotion icon messages transfer process according to the present invention to 3D.
At first, the short message that the user of communication terminal 10 edits is 12 (300) receptions from the SMS center, and the terminal message of the message of mobile communication subscriber and target mobile communication terminal is by customer data base 15 (301) checks.Here, the personal messages that the message of mobile communication subscriber comprises mobile communication subscriber (for example, the mobile communication terminal number, whether the user has added the conversion of emotion icon messages, user's ID and password) (for example, tag activation option or emotion icon forbid inserting option, and the emotion icon inserts option automatically with the setting clauses and subclauses relevant with the conversion of emotion icon messages, short message is cut apart option, is worth preassigned emotion icon set value and similar message by the user).In addition, the terminal message of target mobile communication terminal comprises the UA situation (for example, the pixel of LCD and size, whether the message load mode supports MMS, manufacturer's message and similar situation) of target mobile communication terminal.Being used as request with terminal message that the emotion icon messages transforms relevant setting clauses and subclauses and target mobile communication terminal extracts, cuts apart and in conjunction with the Reference News of emotion icon messages.
Then, whether mobile communication subscriber adds emotion icon messages conversion (302) and will be detected.If mobile communication subscriber does not add the emotion icon transformation, emotion icon messages conversion program will be terminated, and short message can use traditional mode to be sent to the target mobile communication terminal by SMS center 12.In addition, if mobile communication subscriber does not add the conversion of emotion icon messages, the user can be directed adding this.
On the other hand, if added service (302), verify whether inserted abbreviation notation (303) in the short message so by detecting mobile communication subscriber.If inserted an abbreviation notation in the short message, the short text (word or common phrases) that is indicated by abbreviation notation extracts (304) from emotion icon/short text database 14, and the abbreviation notation of short message is replaced (305) by the short text that extracts.If do not insert abbreviation notation in the short message, step can proceed to 306 at once.
Afterwards, calculate the size (306) of user message in the short message that receives or replace, calculate the residual capacity (307) of short message.Then, detect in the message that receives or replace whether insert label (308).If 304 and 305 be not performed, in step 300, detect in the short message that receives whether inserted label here.
If do not insert label (308) in the checking short message, whether the emotion icon set value that then detects by the mobile communication subscriber appointment exists (309).If the emotion icon set value by the mobile communication subscriber appointment exists, the emotion icon that is indicated by emotion icon set value can extract (310) from emotion icon/short text database 14 so.If the emotion icon set value by the mobile communication subscriber appointment does not exist, a basic emotion icon can extract (311) from emotion icon/short text database 14 so.According to changing relevant setting clauses and subclauses with the emotion icon messages, short message can be transmitted by traditional mode.For example, do not have designatedly if do not insert label and emotion icon set value in the short message, short message can utilize traditional mode to be sent to the target mobile communication terminal by SMS center 12.
If insert label in the checking short message, user message in the short message and label can separated holding (312).The label (313) that analyze to separate, the emotion icon that is indicated by the result of analyzing tags can be extracted out (314) from emotion icon/short text database 14.
Afterwards, estimation receives or replaces the summation (315) of the size of the corresponding emotion icon big or small and that extract of user message in the short message in 310,311 or 314.Then, detect the target mobile communication terminal by the terminal message of the target mobile communication terminal of checking in the step 301 and whether support Multimedia Message (MMS) (that is to say whether the test-target mobile communication terminal is restricted aspect the message sink capacity) (316).
If checking target mobile communication terminal terminal is supported MMS (316), the emotion icon of user message and extraction can combined at once (317).On the other hand, if the target mobile communication terminal is not supported MMS, whether the result that will detect estimation exceeds the limit (318) that short message transmits.Do not exceed the transmission limit if detect the result of estimation, program proceeds to 317.On the other hand, if the result of estimation has exceeded the limit that short message transmits, user message can be divided into several message (319), the user message after cutting apart separately with the emotion icon in conjunction with (320).Then, the emotion icon messages in 317 or 320 is sent to SMS center 12 (321), and SMS center 12 will be sent to the target mobile communication terminal from the emotion icon messages that message conversion service device 13 returns.
In order to use the emotion icon transformation according to the present invention, we suppose that the embodiment that Fig. 3 A shows in Fig. 3 D inserts predetermined label the short message that transmits from mobile communication terminal 10.But, be construed as emotion icon in the invention and transform to be conceived and do not support label, realized but rely on.In addition, though do not show, in conjunction with user message and emotion icon so that should consider the details that target terminal is shown when forming an attachment icon messages.That is to say that the emotion icon messages should be depicted the mode that the user wishes the demonstration on the target terminal display screen, emotion icon messages of the present invention has a formwork structure.Therefore, consider target terminal demonstration in detail, the number of the character of horizontal line especially, during an emotion icon messages shows should align in the left side.
In the flow chart of emotion icon transformation according to the present invention, the program that Fig. 6 represents is that the emotion icon can bring into operation from first byte of next line after the emotion icon is connected to user's short message the time.When an emotion icon was connected to user's short message, the emotion icon can be connected to the front of message, can be connected to the message back, perhaps can be connected short message between.In the present invention, will the situation that the emotion icon is connected to the short message back be described.
If the emotion icon is connected on the next short message,, there is following dual mode to consider in order to make emotion icon first byte from next line.First kind of mode is to insert the emotion icon with the position of the next short message of corresponding character code (hereinafter all referring to ' the ENTER ') insertion of carriage return (' ENTER ').The second way be with
' space ' corresponding character code (hereinafter all referring to ' space ') is inserted into the place insertion emotion icon that the new delegation of next message begins.
In this case, if the right-hand member of the note display screen of position that short message finishes and destination mobile terminal is consistent, new delegation begins.Therefore, although do not insert ' ENTER ', the emotion icon can be from first byte of next line.Especially, if insert ' ENTER ' in this case, in some mobile communication terminal, the emotion icon may be from the next line of next line.Whether therefore, need to detect position that short message finishes and the right-hand member on the target portable communication terminal short display screen in present technique aligns.If the position is alignment not, then insert ' ENTER '.Otherwise, do not insert ' ENTER '.Then and ' ENTER ' corresponding byte can be saved so that the quantity of selectable emotion icon can increase, simultaneously, in special mobile communication terminal, do not inserting unnecessary space line.This mode will can be mentioned hereinafter as the third mode.
In the second way, can not produce unnecessary space line.But owing to inserted the space, the byte space that the emotion icon can insert has been wasted.
Following table has shown the length according to short message, shield in short message displays under the situation of mobile communication terminal of every row 16 bytes, from first the emotion icon display space to the third mode, the maximum length of displayable note is 80 son joints, and the size in carriage return (' ENTER ') and space is a byte.
[table 3]
| The length (byte) of input note | First kind of mode | The second way | The third mode |
| … | … | … | … |
| 13 | 66 | 64 | 66 |
| 14 | 65 | 64 | 65 |
| 15 | 64 | 64 | 64 |
| 16 | 63 | 64 | 64 |
| 17 | 62 | 48 | 62 |
| 18 | 61 | 48 | 61 |
| … | … | … | … |
In the second way, wasted a space owing to inserting the space.In first kind of mode, there is not the space to be wasted.But, in the third mode, under the situation of aforesaid mobile communication terminal, if the length of short message is 16,32,48,64 and 72 bytes, the space byte number that ' enter ' that is saved is corresponding is greater than first kind of mode.In addition,, therefore, it is contemplated that the kind of the emotion icon that is dynamically connected certainly by the third mode can become very abundant because the terminal applies of corresponding two bytes of carriage return is more extensive.In addition, in some mobile communication terminal, can produce unnecessary space line between short message and emotion icon, the third mode can solve this problem in first kind of mode well.
Fig. 6 is an embodiment according to the third mode, wherein describes the internal processes of step 317 among Fig. 4 in detail.That is to say that shielding the corresponding length message of every row with the short message displays of target mobile communication terminal is (330) determined, the end position of short message is that the ending this point of screen is (331) that will be detected.Ending is consistent if this position is with screen, and the emotion icon can be connected to the ending (333) of short message.Otherwise the short message ending can connect a carriage return (332) earlier, and then connects an emotion icon (333).
Even in the situation of a new row of the inner beginning of emotion icon, the third mode also can be suitable for.Below illustrate the situation of the emotion icon of connection layout 7.Emotion icon first row among Fig. 7 is made up of 12 bytes, and second row is made up of 12 bytes, and the third line is made up of 14 bytes.If use first kind of mode, when above-mentioned emotion icon fully shows, in total emotion icon capacity of 38 bytes, need two carriage returns on single file length is the short message displays screen of destinations traffic terminal of 16 bytes.Therefore, carriage return accounts in the target mobile communication terminal of a byte needs 40 bytes.
In the second way, because therefore the space, space that should insert 4 bytes respectively in first row and second row needs 46 bytes.In the third mode, equally with first kind of mode need 40 bytes.
When the emotion icon of check connection layout 8, can find the difference of first kind and the third mode.Described emotion icon first row is made up of 16 bytes, and second row is made up of 16 bytes, and the third line is made up of 16 bytes.If use first kind of mode, need 50 bytes.But,,, therefore only need 48 bytes owing to do not need carriage return if use the third mode.To sum up, if the size of the short message of user's input is 30 to 32 bytes, just can not connect described emotion icon with first kind of mode.When using carriage return to need the mobile communication terminal of two bytes, if the size of short message is 27 to 32 bytes, the emotion icon just can not be connected by first kind of mode so, but can connect by the third mode.
In use emotion icon messages converting system of the present invention, provide two types emotion icon, emotion icon level and vertical.
As follows, horizontal emotion icon can be connected after all text characters that the user edits show.Because the differentiation between text and the emotion icon clearly, therefore, the connected mode of emotion icon is very simple.
If vertical emotion icon, emotion icon character row should be inserted between the space of text.
In order to produce the vertical emotion icon of as above giving an example, character row should be arranged as
+
～"+
+ " (_-00) "+
+ "-"+
+ "/1～"+
+
In this case, four emotion icons can be connected respectively to the 7th byte, the 14 byte, and the position of the 21 byte and the second nineteen byte, last emotion icon is connected after five spaces of adding.
The algorithm that vertical emotion icon connects can describe in detail below.Fig. 9 explains that according to the present invention vertical emotion icon is connected to the flow chart of the program of emotion icon messages converting system.
At first, the 12 message conversion service devices 13 that receive the message that the user by mobile communication terminal 10 edit from the SMS center, whether the size of judging the short message of importing is less than 40 bytes (401).
Be not less than 40 bytes if judge the size of short message text, connect the horizontal emotion icon (402) of a single file, program stops.If the size of short message is less than 40 bytes, message conversion service device 13 is judged can connect a vertical emotion icon, and with the space short message text is filled into the 40th byte (403).
Message conversion service device 13 is set at ' 0 ' with the line number N of the display screen of mobile communication terminal 10, and the position byte number M (404) that an emotion icon connects is set.
Afterwards, detect the individual byte of text (8*N-M) and the (number (405) of ascii character between the individual byte of 8* (N+1)-M) judges whether above-mentioned steps 405 at interval interior ascii character numbers are odd number (406).
Simultaneously, if the ascii character number is an odd number in judging at interval in the step 406, the M value increases by 1 (M=M+1) (407).Reason is as follows.When connecting a vertical emotion icon, the character row of forming the emotion icon is inserted between the space of text.Simultaneously, resemble Korean or special marking when having between the letter of coding of two bytes like this if emotion figure bid section is inserted in to form, text just has been disconnected.Therefore, even connected a vertical emotion icon among the present invention, by increasing the M value, Korean can not be disconnected yet.
On the other hand, when the quantity of at interval ascii character is not odd number or M value when increasing by 1, the (the individual byte of 8* (N+1)-M) is set at the position (408) of (N+1) individual emotion figure bid section connection.
If the quantity of character be not odd number but in above-mentioned steps 408 N value and M value all replace by 0 respectively, described by said procedure, the set positions that the first row emotion figure bid section connects is the 8th byte.
Simultaneously, when character quantity is odd number, and if M value increase by 1, in above-mentioned steps 408, to replace by (M+1), the 7th byte is set at the link position of the emotion figure bid section of first row.This point can by such as
Such example proves that this is the example of a vertical emotion icon.
Afterwards, the N value increases by 1 (N=N+1) (409), judges that whether the N value is greater than 4 (N＞4) (410).Judge in the step 410 that whether the N value greater than the reason of 4 (N＞4) is, when the display screen of mobile communication terminal 10 can show that size is 80 bytes, and the display screen single file is when being made up of 16 bytes, and displayable line number is no more than 5.
If judge in the step 410 that the N value is not more than 4, program proceeds to aforesaid step 405 so that continue to be provided with the link position of next emotion figure bid section.If the N value, can judge that the length of text is less than (40-M) individual byte (411) greater than 4.
At this moment, be not less than (40-M) individual byte if step 411 is judged the length of text, connect the horizontal emotion icon (412) of a single file, program stops.If the length of text is less than (40-M) byte, (40M) is to the space character (413) between the 40th byte in the deletion text.
The step 413 aforesaid vertical emotion icon of can giving an example is explained.Delegation in the end
5 space characters, just 3 bytes after increase by 5 bytes, connect last emotion figure bid section then.
Figure 10 is the diagram that vertical emotion icon is connected to the program of the emotion icon messages converting system among the present invention, is the flow chart that a program is concluded.
In this flow chart, steady state value L, B and M are defined as follows:
* L: the line number of forming vertical emotion icon;
* B: the byte number of forming the vertical emotion icon of delegation;
* M: the byte number of forming a short message;
For the purpose of explaining conveniently, suppose following vertical emotion icon.
This vertical emotion icon is made up of 5 row, and every row is made up of 7 bytes, the respectively corresponding 5 and 7 (L=5 of L and B; B=7).Owing to specify at the short message of one 80 byte of Korea S and to want 5 row to show, therefore set the steady state value M that indicates the byte number of forming delegation's short message and be 16 (M=16, just 80/5).But, can be set at different value according to different countries and individual cases M.
On whole mode of operation, flow chart and Fig. 9 of Figure 10 are closely similar.In other words, the flow chart of Figure 10 can and obtain by further summary of the flow chart of Fig. 9 or part improvement.Therefore, omit the explanation of aforementioned step.
At first, detect whether the space, space (501) of determining enough to insert an emotion icon is arranged in the short message.Because whether the size of data of vertical emotion icon corresponding to (L*B) byte, therefore checks the length in space, space greater than (L*B).Space, space if not enough (NO), program proceeds to step 502, inserts a horizontal emotion icon.Have only when the space, space is enough to comprise a vertical emotion icon (YES), insert a vertical emotion icon.
Simultaneously, ' space, space ' is to be calculated by (byte number of L*M-user message), and implication wherein can be described in detail.The form of the vertical emotion icon of the definition in ' space ' and insertion is closely related among Figure 10.For example, if the demonstration of supposition terminal is made up of 5 row, vertical emotion icon is made up of 3 row, and the value in ' space, space ' obtains by calculating the vertical emotion icon of 3 row in Figure 10 flow chart, rather than 5 row of whole terminal demonstration.
Afterwards, for the length that makes messages sent by users less than L* (M-B) byte, (503) are filled by the space in the space of L* (M-B) byte in the emotion icon text.Just, carry out following preliminary treatment.The whole space of emotion icon messages is divided into two parts, and space character is inserted into a part (hereinafter middle finger ' first vertical space '), and vertical emotion icon is inserted into another part (hereinafter ' second vertical space of middle finger ').Relate to the very short situation of user message, necessity for pretreatment is clearly, and for example, a user message ' Hollywood ' and above-mentioned vertical emotion icon are in conjunction with as follows.
The curtailment of user message ' Hollywood ' is to form second vertical space, and this space can make vertical emotion icon arrange with original shape.Therefore, first vertical space of user message demonstration is filled (for simplicity, the space character of insertion is shown as ' _ ') by space character earlier.
In embodiments of the present invention, first vertical space of explicit user message is processed on the left side that terminal shows to be fallen, and second vertical space that shows the emotion icon is processed on the right that terminal shows to be fallen.But according to embodiment, first vertical space may be processed on the right falls, and second vertical space is may on the left side processed to be fallen.Further, in the present embodiment, whole first vertical space was before filled by space character.But clearly, because the aforementioned part of first vertical space is filled by user message, the length of user message will be verified so that have only the part of not filling to be filled in the space character.
Compare Figure 10 and Fig. 9, step 505 and 508 can show by summarizing step 405 and 408.Show that with 5 row the byte number M that therefore forms delegation's short message is set at 16 (=80/5) owing to indicated the short message of 80 bytes in Korea S.In addition, if the embodiment of Fig. 9 realize by the present inventor, just mean that also whole emotion icon messages is vertical, and can be divided into two parts accurately so that process user message and vertical emotion icon messages.Therefore, the byte number B that forms the vertical emotion icon of delegation be set at 8 (=M/2).Correspondingly, step 505 among Figure 10 and 508 digitized representations can obtain by the digitized representations of concluding 405 and 408 among Fig. 9.On the contrary, step 405 among Fig. 9 and 408 situations corresponding to step 505 among Figure 10 and 508M=16 and B=8.
Detect the length in space and whether verify that corresponding to step 411 whether the length of text is less than (40-M) byte greater than L* (B+f) byte.Here, if emotion icon link position is postponed, variable value f increases by 1, is disconnected as the character of two bytes of Korean preventing.Although connecting the length in leading whitespace space is (L*B) byte, when f is not 0, also need additional space.
Below illustrate a user message
Vertical emotion icon with above-mentioned 5*7 is in conjunction with forming an emotion icon messages.
Here, because the user message text
Length is 30 bytes (just, 2 byte/word symbols of 15 character *), and therefore, the size in space, space is 40 bytes (5 row * 14 bytes-30 bytes just).Therefore, consider that 35 bytes (7 bytes of 5 row *) also need to provide an additional space to insert vertical emotion icon.P38 still, the user message text of forming for the character that makes two bytes is not disconnected, f becomes 5 (f=5).Therefore, can find that when combining vertical emotion icon, unnecessary space has not just existed.Correspondingly, at text
Even, only added a character, still can not be in conjunction with vertical emotion icon.
Several embodiment of the inventive concept that the present invention is total enumerate and describe, not leaving the principle of total inventive concept and the improvement of these these embodiment that verify is to be accepted by those skilled in the art, and improved scope illustrates in additional claim and corresponding contents.
According to the present invention, extract a corresponding emotion icon and be inserted into a short message with reference to the set point or the basic set point of the label in the message, user's appointment.Therefore, the user does not need by creating the emotion icon in conjunction with letter/number successively, but can more easily give expression to one's sentiment.
In addition, because the text combination that stencil-type emotion icon and user edits, the user not should be noted that the order of letter/number arrangement.Emotion icon by a maximum can be expressed mood effectively to the other side, and short message can freely be edited and do not consider the capacity of the text that the user needs.
In addition, rely on the label of insertion short message and user's set point, can extract and provide an only emotion icon.Therefore, the user can show that a suitable emotion icon gives expression to one's sentiment, and the other side can recognize the emotion that the emotion icon is expressed exactly.
In addition, rely on the text that inserts in the short message, short message is divided into a plurality of message, and the message after cutting apart is separately in conjunction with an emotion icon.Therefore, the emotion icon can not be disconnected because of the restriction of short message size.
In addition, as long as keep traditional short message, emotion icon transformation function just can be carried out.Therefore, the user can be with similar mode editor's short message, and the conversion of emotion icon messages can offer the previous mobile communication terminal of spread out.
In addition, the abbreviation notation that indicates of user can be replaced by word or common phrases.Therefore, just can Edit Text message by the less load button of quantity.
In addition, the utilization that the short message limit space of 80 bytes can be maximized is so that provide effective emotion icon to connect.
