Background technology
The moving (honeycomb) phone and will be used as example of telecommunication system that is used for for example GSM, UMTS, D-AMPS, CDMA2000, FOMA or TD-SCDMA according to above-mentioned portable terminal.As known in the art, this mobile terminal user is set up with other users of remote telecommunication device continually and is communicated by letter.Certainly, most common form be from portable terminal to for example landline telephone, mobile phone or satellite phone, perhaps have the computer telephone calling of IP phone function.The expert user can initiate this call with multitude of different ways.The user can select the contact person in contact person's (telephone directory) uses, and makes a call to this contact person by choice menus option etc.Perhaps, can transmit in the application in message and select option, make a call with the sender to certain electronic information (for example SMS, MMS or Email), perhaps arbitrary communication party that can list in the recent call tabulation initiates new calling.
Yet, even these options are very convenient and popular in the expert user, but (for example for the user of other type, the elderly, the people that certain obstacle is arranged, unlettered people or for the strange people of moving communicating field), these options are difficult, perhaps even not know.These users adhere to using the conventional manual dialing in the call handler application (idle screen) usually, import the telephone number of expecting the communication party by each (letter) numerical key (" 0 "-" 9 ", " * ", " # ") (or by repeating to be chosen in the corresponding virtual key on the display) that repeats to press on the ITU-T type keypad.
Certainly, if in portable terminal, before there be not the number of expecting the communication party, expert user's manual dialup of also having to use then.
Developed quick dial function, so that initiate audio call, and also selectively be used for different originating method mentioned above.As shown in Figure 4, quick dial function comprises: with certain button of (letter) numeric keypad certain telephone number associated (step 400) with the expectation communication party, this is related as speed dialling definition (step 402) with storage in the local storage 410 of portable terminal.
Then, if the quick dial function that has been certain key definition, then the user can operate this button (step 422) easily, to make a call to the expectation communication party.If the application of current activation is the application that this (letter) numeric keypad does not have implication or has another implication except that call treatment in portable terminal, then the user has at first carry out some order to be back to idle screen (or call handler application) (step 420).In case detect the quick dialing-operation of certain button in step 422, then the software in the portable terminal will be in the existing speed dialling definition (step 424) of local storage 410 search for this button.If there be (step 426) in this speed dialling definition, then read related telephone number, and use this number to its make a call (step 428) from local storage.During call setup, usually on display screen 700 presentation information (Fig. 7 a), to reflect (for example comprise and dialled the number and the short message 720 of the name of being transferred from others, also may be combined with progress bar 722) progress of call setup by some information.Yet, if do not have speed dialling definition for certain key, then will be in executive termination after the step 426, and preferably also only present brief informational message 724 to the user, notifying him can not carry out speed dialling (Fig. 7 b), and no longer provide other help to him.
Quick dial function has for example been described in GB-2278756.Here, length by certain button (promptly, depress certain button and keep this button to be depressed above the time period of threshold value) can call quick dial function, and the normal implication that can be interpreted as this button to the normal running of certain button (short by) (for example, if press (letter) digital keys " 3 ", then use input digit " 3 ") to that activates.In some existing portable terminal model, quick dial function is changed to by depressing certain button and operating dedicated array of keys (for example " calling ", " determining " or " OK " key) subsequently and calls.
For using arbitrary above-mentioned originating method to have the user of difficulty, and for the situation that does not define quick dial function for the expectation communication party, prior art provides a kind of final selection to set up this calling, that is, make a call to the remote call-in assistant service that typically provides by mobile network operator charge.As shown in Figure 5, in step 500, mobile terminal user makes a call to this service by the number of manually dialing remote service usually.In step 502, one receives the incoming call from portable terminal, and the operator at the remote service place just inquires the user he wants whom calls out.In step 502, mobile terminal user responds by the enough information (for example, full name or part name, inhabitation or business address etc.) about the expectation communication party is provided.Based on this information, the operator at the remote service place will carry out search in central database 507, and central database 507 is typically about the mass communication user data of users.Described database can be mutually integrated, distributed with other network operator's database and troop, to increase the amount of the user data that can search for.
If information and above-mentioned database search coupling from mobile phone users provides then in step 508, obtain about expecting communication party's contact details from database 507.Traditionally, this remote call-in assistant service is by finishing (step 510a) by the operator to the oral contact details that is found of reading of mobile phone users.Selectively or additionally, some network operator is sent to mobile phone users (step 510b) with the contact details that is found as electronic information (typically being SMS), transmit with the message by wherein and should be used for receiving.At last, selectively or additionally, the operator can call out by setting up between the indicated telephone device of user's portable terminal and the caller ID (telephone number) that comprises in the contact details that is found, comes and expects that the communication party sets up communicate by letter (step 510c).
If it is available and selected selecting 510a and/or 510b, then mobile phone users is created new contact person record in certain stage subsequently may the telephone directory at portable terminal, the contact details that input provides from remote service and they are stored in the telephone directory memory (step 512).As independent and step 514 subsequently, mobile phone users can distribute the speed dialling button by the caller ID to this contact person at last, comes to be new contact person record definition quick dial function.
Because the mode of the prior art of Fig. 5 need be from a plurality of active intervention steps of mobile terminal user, so this mode is unfavorable for the user who lacks experience type mentioned above especially.At first, the user has to make a call to the remote call-in assistant service.Then, when calling out identical communication party, expectation have to reuse remote service for fear of future, this user must adopt the way of step 512 and 514, also serves as the following establishment speed dialling definition of using with enough contact details of storing the expectation communication party.
Transmit (step 510a) under the situation of these details in remote service by the oral contact details that obtains of reading, the user must remember these details or write down these details in the preparatory stage of step 512 and 514.
Even transmit resulting contact details electronically as for example SMS message, in a plurality of different application, the user also need carry out a plurality of operations in user interface, with execution in step 512 and 514.The different clauses and subclauses of contact details (for example name, telephone number and address) must be read out one by one, perhaps by temporary memory, perhaps preferably use the copy and paste function to be duplicated electronically, and switch the respective field that is imported into contact person record between application and the book applications back and forth by transmitting then in message.Then, the user must typically can carry out in order to the required operation of definition quick dial function in step 514 by the menu option in call handler application or control panel application.Must carry out all these operations obviously is trouble for the user, and just difficult especially for the user who lacks experience.

If the check result in step 606 negates that promptly current for the long button of pressing " 3 " defines speed dialling, then implementation enters into step 608.In step 608, make a call to the remote service 112 that is used for auxiliary speed dialling from portable terminal 100.Simultaneously, present display screen as shown in Fig. 8 a to the user.Shown in Fig. 8 a,, also demonstrate indicative message 820 except outside the general state information 810 (for example, the signal strength indicator of antenna/reception, current network operator, battery level indicator and current date/time) on display screen 800 tops.Compare the situation of not only notifying the user not have the speed dialling definition, but also the situation (further by progress bar 823 expressions) of notifying the user to make a call to the long-range auxiliary speed dialling service of Virtual network operator with the mode of the prior art of Fig. 7.
The number that to remote service 112 dialing the time, will use by call handler application 260 can with in the various different modes any by pre-defined in portable terminal.For example, can before being transported to retail shop, portable terminal just configure described number by Virtual network operator, or by the user in the past the automatic configuration SMS message that receives of certain with carrying out time dispose described number, or be provided with and dispose described number by use in 270 manually input at control panel.Perhaps, in the time of can inserting in system, perhaps portable terminal inserts the network of certain operator for the first time, when perhaps even at every turn system inserts, sends the number of remote service 112 to portable terminal.The advantage of a kind of selection in back is: even also can carry out long-range auxiliary speed dialling service under roaming condition.
In step 612, receive the calling of initiating from portable terminal 100 in remote service 112.In following example, handle this calling by true man, be the operating personnel 117 of Fig. 1, the task that these operating personnel cooperate the associated software of the server computer at remote service 112 places and wherein execution to come treatment step 612,614,618,622,624 and 630.But in other embodiments, step 612,614,618,622,624 and 630 can be handled by Computer Processing with by server computer and associated software thereof fully.
In step 614, he wants whom looks for operating personnel 117 inquiry mobile phone users 101.In response, in step 616, mobile phone users 101 is for example by telling expectation communication party's full name or part name and/or address, and coming provides about expecting communication party's the first information to operating personnel 117.Last in step 614,112 places receive the described first information in remote service.
Based on the first information that receives from portable terminal, in step 618, operating personnel 117 will search in central database 620 (being described to the described customer data base 114 (and/or 124) of Fig. 1 in disclosed embodiment).
In step 622, determine whether to have found in the database search in step 618 and the coupling of the described first information and available second information that constitutes thus about the expectation communication party.This second information typically will be such user's contact details---its user data is complementary with the first information from mobile phone users and therefore is the expectation communication party, and described contact details comprises at least one caller ID with the telephone number form.Except caller ID, contact details can comprise for example communication party's full name and address.Comprise under the situation more than a caller ID (for example, being used for certain user's home phone number and Mobile Directory Number) in second information, operating personnel 117 can inquiry mobile phone users 101, to specify interested caller ID.If more than a user and described first information coupling, then operating personnel 117 can correspondingly inquire out of Memory from mobile phone users, Search Results is limited to a coupling.
If the definite result in step 622 is correct, then produce the step 624 of speed dialling configuration data subsequently.In addition, separate with this step, in step 630, operating personnel 117 can portable terminal 100 (user) with as according between the expectation communication party shown in the caller ID in second information that obtains in the step 618, begin call setup.Alternatively, although do not illustrate in Fig. 6, operating personnel 117 also can be to mobile phone users 101 oral second information of reading.
Refer again to the step 624 that produces the speed dialling configuration data, in disclosed embodiment, mentioned in the description as Fig. 2, this step comprises generation configuration SMS message automatically, automatically configuration SMS message is regarded portable terminal 100 as recipient, and comprises the caller ID that is used to expect the communication party of deriving as second message that obtains from step 618.In this connection, be a kind of known technology by SMS message to the automatic configuration of portable terminal, and, omitted its detail in this manual for fear of having been covered the present invention by unnecessary details.For example, can be also referred to as aerial download technology (OTA) with reference to " Nokia-Ericsson's smart message transfer scheme " that just generally used from 1997.
Expectation communication party's caller ID, selectively put into message data part 258, as the part of the speed dialling configuration data 259 of Fig. 2 with out of Memory or its some part (for example expecting communication party's name) from the contact details of second information.In addition, speed dialling configuration data 259 will comprise in order to carry out the required any configuration control number certificate of described speed dialling configuration data therein once receiving the speed dialling configuration data in portable terminal 100.
