Description

Can simulate the wireless local loop telephone set of the Reprogrammable of wire telephone

The present invention relates to a kind of wireless local loop telephone set of simulating wire telephone, can accept various methods of payment and Reprogrammable.

Adopt telecommunication technology to form the system that the multiple user of confession can be used to communicate by letter.These comprise in selecting on a large scale: wired public switched telephone network (PSTN), private branch exchange, paging system, local area network (LAN), ATM net, wide area network, metropolitan area net and wireless network.

Many countries in the world all lack wired PSTN.Yet, the circuit network cost costliness not only be used for wired PSTN business is installed, and expends time in, and make many potential clients can't enjoy service in a period of transition.

A kind of method of solution is to adopt the wireless network of similar honeycomb or PCS network.Cellular network uses a plurality of process dedicated networks (being generally leased line or microwave) to be connected to the independently mesh site of mobile switching centre (MSC), and this MSC then is connected to PSTN.This MSC manages all call treatment intelligence, function of exchange, fault detection and diagnosis.

MSC also is absolutely necessary to the operation of the PCS Personal Communications System (PCS) of immediate development.A PCS uses " microgrid hole " to cover high zone (Office Area, commercial downtown area that for example, has high-rise) of using zone or its features of terrain to limit transmittability.Because the mesh of larger amt is arranged, and PCS can handle sizable traffic carrying capacity.Low-powered transmitter in each PCS microgrid hole receives subscriber signal and communicates (passing through microwave public telephone company or data wire usually) with controller, and this controller is communicated by letter with MSC again.Because such network allows mobile communication, so these networks can be than setting up the expensive better long-term solution of cable network.And, in lacking the country of wired base station, can be rapidly and the such network of arrangement more effectively.

Even but utilize wireless network and PCS network still can't serve a large amount of potential client markets effectively.This is because many countries lack the basic facilities of keeping accounts with the tollbooth need.Further, though various forms of fraud detection and prevention system are arranged, cellular network and PCS network are subjected to handle from those swindle loss of user that network do not pay to obtain telecommunications service still infamously.In addition, those users that are familiar with telephone technology signaling protocol may feel under the weather when the radiophone of the dialing tone that uses general shortage standard wire telephone, dtmf tone accent and other signaling protocols.Radiophone needs to use " transmission " key to come originating call.These differences become radiophone for many potential consumers inconvenience is used, strange and shortage attraction.

Authorize West, No. the 4658096th, 4775997,4922517, people's such as Jr. United States Patent (USP) and the United States Patent (USP) of authorizing Shafer have been described the interface system that the user can be used have the standard telephone set of being familiar with of cellular radio transceiver for No. 4737975." this interface system will be transformed to serial data stream so that be stored in this transceiver from the voice-frequency dialing or the pulse dialing input of telephone set ".Require such conversion to be because radio receiving-transmitting unit uses with " standard telephone set "." programmable " interface system that the patent of Shafer has been described a kind of " can determine when last numeral or the numerical digit of dialing the specific region telephone system automatically ".

But at West, the interface system described in the patent of people such as Jr. and Shafer has increased the cost and the spending of another layer to telephone set.The user not only must have the wire telephone of a station symbol standard, and also must buy this interface and cellular radio facility.

Thereby it will be more cheap to the user that honeycomb or pcs telephone machine are provided.Yet such honeycomb and pcs telephone be confidential asks high-grade maintenance.Must often programme and safeguard telephone set again, programme again by technical staff unfamiliar or that suitably do not train often and safeguard.

The present invention solves these and other problem, the wire telephone of this wireless local loop telephone set mock standard by a kind of wireless local loop telephone set is provided; Appraise and decide the rate of the radiotelephone call of incoming call and exhalation; Accept the various forms of payings of client, comprise prepaid card or credit card; Can be programmed again and can carry out the autodiagnosis maintenance issues by long-range so that the intervention of service technician is reduced to Min..The present invention also provides other features, comprises selectively printing credit or call details, programming to allow telephone set video and audio-frequency information to be provided, to be used to manage the management system of a plurality of radiophones or to be used to show current calling charge and user's residue credit display with multilingual.

Telephone set of the present invention through number bus microprocessor, speech processor and mobile phone are coupled to transceiver in case with wireless communication such as honeycomb fashion, relay radio or satellite network.The telephone number input handset that the user can take mobile phone and will want.When detecting off-hook, microprocessor control speech processor produces dialing tone, and this dialing tone offers the earphone of mobile phone.Speech processor also can reference to storage, so that auditory tone cues to be provided, even as instruction, advertisement call progress data.

The user is by the required telephone number of keyboard input subsequently.The DTMF generator is activated so that the tone relevant with selected key position offered mobile phone by the matrix output of modulator-demodulator by keyboard.Yet these tones do not send to transceiver.Microprocessor control analog to digital converter, through number bus the institute of digital form being dialled the number sends to transceiver.

Microprocessor is constantly checked buffer memory numeral and the dial plan that stores, and whether has imported effective telephone number to judge the user.Whether in case coupling, microprocessor is at first checked, be this call payment to judge the user, and this can be by the user will be prepay or credit card is inserted in the suitable card reader and finishes.This card is identified, and deduct the stored value in that selectively can in this prepaid card, be preserved or the memory the initial cost (as two minutes) of the selected calling of being dialled the number, so that defrayment from credit card collects and stores card number, the term of validity and user's name in this credit card after a while.Initial and follow-up expense is by allowing microprocessor appraise and decide database and appraise and decide call rate and decide according to calling out cost.Display show remaining credit on the card, calling charge with surplus call time to the user.

After (1) buffer memory numeral was judged as coupling effective telephone-number and (2) initial payment, microprocessor connected same " transmission " instruction with complete number and sends to transceiver, begins thus to call out.

The time of a preliminary election before user's initial credit lost efficacy is after interior, microprocessor is proceeded to determine whether to allow to call out by checking on the prepaid card credit line that credit stored in the remaining or telephone set and current calling charge are checked the obtainable special delegated authority of user.For user's Credit Card Calling, the accumulation of microprocessor permission expense simply is so that check out later on or cut-out calling when calling charge surpasses a certain critical value.

Microprocessor can store billing data, as call setup time, termination time, institute dial the number, expense and credit card details.Telephone Management System uses a computer a large amount of telephone sets of remote programmable and retrieves such billing data and it is put in order is the useful call statistics of wireless service supplier or the data of book keeping operation.In addition, Telephone Management System can be used for the remote diagnosis maintenance issues and the maintenance of telephone set of assisting to roll off the production line, and the telephone set that rolls off the production line begins and the communicating by letter of phone maintenance system by incoming call on the line.Even during the telephone set memory is full of billing data the malicious sabotage behavior is taking place, also can begin such remote call-in from the telephone set to the maintenance system in seclected time.

Telephone set of the present invention can be used as real wireless public telephone machine, allows the pre-payment of various forms of striking out and incoming call.This telephone set uses honeycomb fashion, relay radio or satellite mobile phone to simulate the landline telephone machine operation and identical mobile phone command is sent to the transceiver that compatible microprocessor is controlled.Perhaps, telephone set of the present invention can be deployed in the fixed position, as in the user family or in the office, and can use by pre-payment or credit card mode.If the use prepaid card, this allows the ISP who operates telephone set to receive the paying that is guaranteed, if when the use credit card, will allow the ISP to receive and pay and needn't independently be kept accounts and charging program by credit card company's foundation.

Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a kind of local wireless loop telephone machine, need not the concentrated accounting system in the radio telephone system management or the credit of telephone operator and prolong.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a kind of wireless local loop telephone set, it can make call rate and accept paying from credit card or prepaid card by the balance between revenue and expenditure after permission card trustship (escrow) credit and the change use or by the credit in the trustship telephone set memory.

But another object of the present invention is to provide a kind of wireless local loop telephone set of mock standard telephone set.

A further object of the present invention is to provide a kind of wireless local loop telephone set, and it has and audio signal is sent to mobile phone so that the speech processor that communicates with the user.

" telephone set operation "

1, give user's message:

Fig. 3 has shown the operation of telephone set 10.When using telephone set, microprocessor 30 voltages raise and start display 20 display operation instructions, advertisement or its combination under ISP's controls.The target number and the expense of initial call time of display 20 demonstration input keyboards 14 are given the user.Display 20 also can show the value (as prepaid card 17) of the method for payment of being followed or show credit number when using credit card 19.The audiovisual prompting can be provided when detecting the state variation of switch hook 11 by microprocessor 30.Perhaps, can when receiving the data that are input in the buffer (being connected respectively to the prepaid card reader 16 of admitting prepaid telephone machine card 17 and the credit card reader 18 of admitting standard credit card 19) that is labeled as SPO and SPI, microprocessor 30 provide such prompting.The sound of those audibles or visual prompting can be instruction or advertisement, and these instructions or advertisement can change through the long-range telephone set 10 of programming again by Telephone Management System 100 (be presented among Fig. 6 and in following relevant article and be described).

Operational order informs that the user mentions mobile phone 12 and calls out.When the user when switch hook 36 is mentioned mobile phone 12, offhooking detector notice microprocessor 30, and open the dialing tone generator 42 that is positioned at speech processor 40.Thereby the user can hear dialing tone when putting mobile phone 12 in one's ear.

Subsequently, microprocessor can randomly show a piece of news on display 20, promptly can obtain another kind of language by the # key on the lower keyboard 14.Press the # key and between bilingual, dial the pointer that changes in the microprocessor software: as English/Spanish, Spanish/French, French/German, Chinese/Japanese or the like.The original text of language is stored in the memory 32 of microprocessor 30; These language in advance the record audio prompt can be stored in the memory 41 that can be MSM6650 (ORI) IC of stored speech processor 46.In case the user selectes a kind of language, microprocessor 30 provides later audiovisual prompting with the selected language of this kind.Visible message is taken out as numeric word from memory 32, and sends display 20 to by microprocessor 30.The audible prompting is by microprocessor 30 requests, and embedded microcontroller calls this message from its memory, carry out filtering, carries out required digital-to-analogue conversion, and with tone frequency channel wire (being labeled as A) introducing speech processor 40, the earphone of mobile phone 12 given sound subsequently by this processor 40.In whole calling procedure and especially during calling was started, the language of selecting with the user utilized voice message prompting user.Telephone set 10 is equipped with a series of " message of recording " of bilingual form how to use phone, call situation or the like to notify the user.These message also can comprise, advertisement, similarly telephone service.In addition, the user can obtain the audible prompting of residue credit on relevant its

card

17,19.

2, paying is checked and card safety:

No matter selected which kind of language, audiovisual prompting indication user inserts credit card 19 or prepaid card 17.Two kinds of

card reader

16,18 can be provided, so that various types of

card

17,19 all can be admitted, perhaps telephone set 10 can only be equipped with one type card reader 16,18.After showing the instruction that maybe can hear, the user will insert prepayment telephone machine card 17 or take out its credit card 19 by card reader 16,18.Information from the

card

17,19 that is inserted is transferred to

card reader

16,18, and this information is kept in the

card reader

16,18 till being sent to microprocessor 30.If use prepaid card reader 16, can pull card 17 into reader 16 by the actuating unit device of for example wheel disc etc., and along with moving of card 17 read recorded data.In the situation that prepaid card 17 inserts, card reader 19 reads specific code, is recorded in sign indicating number on the magnetic stripe of card 17 such as those.These yards can be discerned still surplus credit line on distributing and releasing corporation, card sequence number and the card 17.Prepaid card reader 19 is preserved cards 17 till finishing whole calling and mobile phone 12 and returning to the on-hook position.

Microprocessor 30 is checked the statusline from

card reader

16,18 continuously and sequentially.If have obtainable data, statusline will so be indicated, and interrupt service routine will make microprocessor 30 stop to carry out its normal procedure and makes the above-mentioned

reader

16,18 of microprocessor service.Therefore, microprocessor 30 accepts to be stored in data in the memory 32 by a port in the built-in serial i/o port of two special uses immediately from any

card reader

16,18.

Microprocessor 30 is checked the identification code of card and the storage table of a stolen or illegal card 17, if stolen or illegal, by being damaged, be damaged or modify unilaterally, then card 17 is return to the user, and is provided and tell that user's card 17 is an illegal message.If card 17 is legal, remaining credit (for prepaid card 17) will be placed in the register so that use in the calculating afterwards.When using credit card 19, credit card reader 18 reads its information, and this information is sent to RAM Cache in the memory 32.Microprocessor 30 is checked significant digits, the term of validity, Route Selection and PIN number in the card 19.Subsequently microprocessor 30 can be stored in the memory 32 and by long-range upgrade effectively/the invalid credit card database compares.Perhaps, but telephone set 10 abbreviated dialing real-time onlines are confirmed system.If return and get permission sign indicating number, then this sign indicating number is logged into call record and calls out and continue.If receive and deny sign indicating number, then end call process is also pointed out the user to attempt other and is planted method of payment.

When not having

card

17,19 to insert or not having card data for retrieval, microprocessor 30 continues other inputs of sampling and serves any request action.An example that continues process is the service of video display 20.Microprocessor 30 is written to display 20 with a new letter, and display 20 acknowledges receipt of this letter and starts expression display 20 subsequently and has been ready to receive next alphabetical statusline.Simultaneously, microprocessor 30 uses clock 38 to calculate preset time; After that past time, microprocessor 30 is given display 20 with next letter, and this rolls message on display 20.

3, call out and to start and rate is appraised and decided:

In " non-busy " "on" position, arbitrary action that telephone set 10 sends in the logical block by transceiver 24 in the monitoring bus 50 continuously.If there is not action, then telephone set 10 is not provided with calling.Telephone set 10 can interiorly in a period of transition show welcome message or advertisement.When the user by mentioning mobile phone 12 " off-hook " when coming originating call, just send an interruption to microprocessor 30.Microprocessor 30 is served this interruption, and by applying the generation that the relevant dialing tone generator 42 of electric energy or startup and speech processor 40 (it can provide dialing tone separately, does like this if suitably be designed to) starts dialing tone immediately.Simultaneously, display operation instruction on display 20.Message shown on the display 20 is stored in the main storage 32 of telephone set 10 under the control of microprocessor 30, be called and be transmitted to display 20.

Fig. 4 A and 4B illustrate that this calling is started and rate is appraised and decided process.Microprocessor 30 control displays 20 or speech processor 40 are imported required telephone number with the prompting user by keyboard 14.In step 140, input digit is closed dialing tone generator 42 by microprocessor.When depressing each key, the Dual Tone Multifrequency tone is to being added to mobile phone 12 so that the user hears.The frequency of using on this tone pair and " button " formula telephone set is identical.Dtmf tone is transferred being not used in actual place calls.On the contrary, dtmf tone is transferred being used for the mock standard wire telephone by the user of telephone set 10.Therefore, when pressing each continuous key, DTMF generator 44 produces the tone relevant with selected key.These tones are fed to mobile phone 12, but do not send into transceiver 24.Simultaneously, keyboard 14 utilizes to the connection of front end gate array selected key is sent to analog to digital converter with microprocessor 30 couplings of telephone set 10.This digital number of microprocessor 30 buffer memorys and also this number is sent to transceiver 24 through bus 50.

If set timer between a numeral in each digital back, and in the expiration of previous selected time (as three seconds) that next key is depressed, then microprocessor 39 thinks that dialing finished and will call out the number of being dialled in.Perhaps, microprocessor 30 carries out numerical analysis, by judging by constantly dialer maps stored in the number of institute's buffer memory and the telephone set 10 being checked when dialing is finished.In case coupling, microprocessor 30 determines and dials complete significant number.The dial plan that is written in the memory of this numerical analysis by the number relatively imported and telephone set 10 judges whether the end user has dialled in effective numeral, thereby judge that these numbers are tax-free call, this locality, long-distance or international destination, still non-existent destination.If input random number or appearance " fertile finger " mistake (that is, pressing two keys simultaneously) are determined in numerical analysis, then end call and notify the user.In case determine the destination of calling, the rate that then the numerical analysis result is sent to the rate of determining that this calling need be paid is appraised and decided process 150 (seeing Fig. 4 B).

In any case, the number of dialling in that each is complete all is sent to above-mentioned formative transceiver 24, and if remain enough line of credits on the

card

17,19, then sends the SND order so that the shortest time of the selecting required calling of (as two seconds) at interval.For this reason, microprocessor 30 is communicated by letter with transceiver 24 and is asked it that the number of being dialled (destination number) is sent to suitable mesh site.Transceiver 24 stores the destination number, receives numeral " transmission " order until it from microprocessor 30.Transceiver 24 starts outbound call subsequently.Typically, this comprises: scanning is used for carrying out with near the base station of mesh site the channel of wireless link; The scanning available system is to judge best radio link; And be locked on the specific mesh site.Various message exchange between transceiver 24 and microprocessor 30 so that correctly set up and call out.Next transceiver 24 is communicated by letter with the mesh site again, the number that transmits its login number, its telephone number and dialed.If when telephone set 10 receives the monitoring message that this calling of expression can not finish, microprocessor 30 will stop this calling and show describe the message of this problem, as " your calling can't be finished this moment, please hang up and try after a while again.”

When correct monitoring message has carried out exchange and calls out when starting, microprocessor 30 makes user's transmitter (microphone) noise elimination, and only opens its mobile phone 12 receivers, so that the user can hear replying of bell signal and called party.When calling is replied and user when hearing called party's sound, the user must press according to the visual cues on the display 20 and open beginning key 15 so that microprocessor 30 noise elimination mobile phone 12 not can begin dialogue thus.Simultaneously, microprocessor 30 is write down the enough credit accounts that are stored in the credit register, with the telephone expenses at payment preselected time interval (as two minutes).In addition, microprocessor 30 record start time in memory 32 and starts the call time that clock 38 writes down passage so that carry out call-accounting.Clock 38 can be the real-time clock such as DS1302, and it is coupled to and is used to support the super capacitor of power supply and is equipped with the power failure supervisory programme.

Honeycomb fashion, satellite and trunk line wireless standard do not support to reply supervision as usual.Have only youngest CDMA standard just to support to reply supervision and allow end office's progress tone is returned to telephone set.As the substitute of replying supervision, some service providers has been revised its switch, so as receive from wired end office (EO) reply supervisory signals the time produce DTMF or the 4th row tone.Therefore, microprocessor configurable receiver circuit is to confirm the tone by the ISP was provided.Microprocessor 30 can receive identification when replying the pre-tone of supervision subsequently, sends signal and automatically removes noise-limited condition, allows user's communication, and record start time and the initial time that requires the user for this reason to call out are paid at interval.Perhaps, whether telephone set 10 configurable digital signal processing chips are handled from the acoustic information of called party and calling party reception, begin and when begin to judge dialogue.But subsequent state line interrupt microprocessor 30, so that opening entry call time.

Before actual call was finished, the rate that microprocessor 30 starts " the per minute rate " of definite destination of being dialed was appraised and decided process 150.In brief, rate is appraised and decided distance, the time and date that process 150 determines that these callings will be advanced, and with reference to by the rate structure that the ISP provided, with beginning and the correct expense of further part of the calling determining to be finished.Base rate when the ISP of telephone set 10 determines to use telephone set 10.

Paying can be based upon on the basis of aviation distance that telephone set 10 arrives the destination of being called out and type of call.Three typical types are time, date and to call out be (long-distance) or long-distance to another country (world) beyond local, this area actually.For example, may be full price daytime, and may be 0.75 of full price rate evening, perhaps may be 0.5 of full price rate night.Date also can comprise discount, and Mon-Fri is that full price, Saturday are 0.5 of full price rate, and be 0.75 or 0.5 of full price rate Sunday.Distance multiply by the sum that time, rate and any discount are promptly made the required paying of the actual use of user.Additional cost, tax or other special expenses or discount (as holiday) will add from an exception table of the memory 32 that also provided by the ISP of telephone set 10, and can be used to show the whole calling finished or the all-in charge of each several part.

4, calling procedure and termination:

In any case, new balance of payments will be stored in the stored place of original credit (as be stored on the card 17 or on the memory 32).Simultaneously, on display 20, showing remaining credit during the whole call, also can show the residue call duration time (being initial 2 minute period or 1 minute current period) in the current charges paid period, these can be the demonstration of bar chart or other types.When setting-up time (as 1.5 minutes) finishes, and preferably for selected subsequently period (as 1 minute), there is enough residue credit another minute that microprocessor 30 was checked with the checking connect hours.If like this, the calling procedure letter in reply check program that continues to lay equal stress on then.If but when not having enough credit to be left, microprocessor 30 makes display 20 flickers, shows subsequently and asks the user to insert the instruction of another card 17.May allow some extra free time or grace period (for example, 10 seconds), if but do not have to insert (having enough credit) new card 17, then call out and will be terminated and card 17 is return.

Microprocessor 30 Monitoring Data line and interception, decoding and the message from the logical block of transceiver reacted (when being called out) continuously.If circuit connection failure and when by transceiver 24 this being reported to telephone set 10, this calling will be terminated.When the user is put back into mobile phone 12 when making mobile phone 12 return to the on-hook position on the carriage, also can sends and finish (END) order and come terminated call to transceiver by microprocessor 3.When calling was finished, call duration will be affixed in the statistics file of account data of the calling of having done on the relevant telephone set 10.These call statistics comprise year, month, day and call setup time, call duration and call number.

Last deduction is from arbitrary prepaid card 17 deductions, and new balance between revenue and expenditure will show and be recorded on the card 17 in the magnetic mode, and card 17 is return so that return to the user from reader 19.Telephone set 10 shows the message of " thank you " type and returns to the free time and ready mode subsequently.Remaining call statistics is recorded and is kept in the memory 32 so that upload to the central office after a while when requiring.

Credit card 19 is called out except the record keeping of the card 19 that has no credit and can be made progress in the mode identical with above-mentioned prepaid card 17.The total cost of calling out is recorded with the number of credit card 19, the term of validity etc. so that upload to the central office or central computer is kept accounts.Perhaps, if the supplier of wireless service decision like this, as previously mentioned, telephone set 10 can be designed to incoming call so that authorize each Credit Card Calling in advance.

5, incoming call:

Telephone set 10 can be designed to independently a public telephone set or a wireless local loop telephone set.If be designed to public telephone set, telephone set 10 will not accepted incoming call, because still do not exist in the method that call accepted is kept accounts to the user before,, calls out by the modulator-demodulator of telephone set 10 to allow remote programmable yet can being configured to reply this after the ring of selected quantity.

As the wireless local loop telephone set, telephone set 10 starts outside ringing set when receiving incoming call.In addition, telephone set 10 can start real-time clock 35 so that begin calling out timing.If dispose caller's recognition function, telephone set 10 also can begin this call charging so that charge to the user.

Inside story transmits

In the embodiment shown in Fig. 1-3, bus 15 can be the three-way number bus of Motorola.From all passing through transceiver 24 (as the transceiver of Motorola Inc.'s production) transmission with removing sound and data-signal to telephone set 10.Transceiver 24 communicates by electromagnetic wave and regioselective mesh site.Transceiver 24 is replied order and the control signal from the microprocessor 30 of telephone set 10.Transceiver 24 also receives, reply the status signal that receives from the mesh site and send it to telephone set 10.

Two-way communication between microprocessor 30 and the transceiver 24 can use the priority message agreement of being developed by Motorola Inc. to carry out on three-way number bus 50, described in " the peripheral message of three-way bus transmits standard " of Motorola like that, this file this in the lump combination so that reference.Usually, three data wires that are called C data (supplementary data), R data (return data) and T data (True Data) circuit are cushioned and shaping, but directly are connected between transceiver 24 and the microprocessor 30.Article three, each the bar circuit in the data wire always is in " very " (height) state or " vacation " (low) state.Utilize the relative status of data wire and also utilize the absolute change of wall scroll data wire and information is transmitted on bus 50.For example, if C data and T data wire are low (0,0), then transceiver 24 is in reset mode.As another example, if microprocessor 30 makes the R data wire become low state by high state, then this will signal to transceiver 24, and expression microprocessor 30 is sending message to transceiver 24.Timing on the logical block control bus 50 in the transceiver 24.

At selected interval (as, approximately each 1 minute), transceiver 24 is by sending the state that status request message is checked telephone set 10 on bus 50.Microprocessor 30 generally in the time interval of setting (about) as 30 seconds reply.For example, " switch hook " sign indicating number can send to transceiver 24.The switch hook sign indicating number can Shi $IF (equaling 16 hexadecimal number).This switch hook sign indicating number indication telephone set 10 is classified as auxiliary peripheral, this means: start or forbid that the message of calling out must use transmissions (SND--begins) and end (termination) message by transceiver 24.Those are defined as complete and effective telephone number by microprocessor 30 makes microprocessor 30 will cause microprocessor 30 through buses 50 " SND " order to be sent to transceiver 24.Similarly order sends to transceiver 24 through bus 50 when being fit to.When telephone set 10 sent message to transceiver 24, the message that is transmitted must meet the form of defined.For example, the message of 16 bits can have the address (4 bit) of following destination sign indicating number (4 bit) thereafter, and this sign indicating number back, destination is the data field of 8 bits.Each message on the bus 50 must be made of 16 bits, otherwise will be left in the basket.

In any case, utilize the status data exchange of this rule, transceiver 24 can know that telephone set 10 handling an ongoing calling, or is in operating period but because the shortage of the traffic and at leisure.

In the T data that telephone set 10 must receive the traffic carrying capacity of all buses 50 at any time and can come testbus 50 by an interrupt generator for this reason and the C data wire just with the transformation of bearing.The interruption that is obtained offers microprocessor 30, and microprocessor 30 is served this interruption immediately, received traffic carrying capacity and this traffic carrying capacity of decoding of this microprocessor 30 of addressing.

The operation of storage values card reader

Two kinds of basic skills of utilizing prepaid card 17 to operate telephone set 10 are arranged.Or the credit on the card 17 can be deposited on this card and change this credit (as mentioned above) by card reader/write device after using, or can be in memory this credit of trustship.As described below and the of the present invention second optional embodiment that be presented among Fig. 5 uses card reader 15A shown in Figure 4.Its physical unit is used as the storage values card reader by the card reader 15A of the Xico company production and selling in No. 9737, Chatsworth Eton street, California.Typical card reader " is read " card to determine its value and to have the mechanical device that is used to rewrite the card value of calculating the amount of paying the fees.Should " writing " action allow the user again with blocking 17 and obtain the same value of other free service very important for guaranteeing that card 17 does not stay.

On the contrary, card reader 15a utilizes storage values card 17a whole values of card 17a to be read in the memory 32 of telephone set 10.Therefore, write mechanism and can remove from card reader 15a, this saves suitable expense.Has many kind structures and operation method as the card reader 15 of storage values card reader; Below and three exemplary method are described in Fig. 5.

1, single phonecard:

Storage values card 17a is used for issuing according to making with selected telephone set 10, which comprises at least following information: the sequence number of telephone set 10; Transaction code and credit line.Usually, storage values card 17a will be from the issue station that is configured to public dispenser, obtain the retailer or in wireless service supplier's service point.The SWIPE encoder of the RS232 port that is connected to the PC master computer is used in these issue stations, and this PC master computer has the independent serial port that is connected to telephone set 10.User's (after cash or other methods of payment) is with required card value input PC main frame, and the PC main frame is given encoder with sequence number and other data of this information, user's telephone set 10.Encoder produces the transaction code of UNIX time mark as uniqueness, and card 17a is sent in sequence number, card value and UNIX time mark or the enciphering of another unique transaction code of telephone set 10.The PC main frame stores this transaction data so that hold the record in order to auditing after a while.

The user inserts card reader 18a with storage values card 17a, confirms the validity of card 17a and read information from card 17a.So just, the value (as $50) of a whole card 17a is sent to the memory 32 of telephone set 10.Card reader 18a can be constructed to read or read when withdrawing from card 17a when inserting card 17a.Card reader 18a also sends to the data decode on the card 17a microprocessor 30 of telephone set 10 with all data.Microprocessor 30 these data of checking, and effectively the time, new card value is added to its memory 32, and utilize transaction code or card 17a to upgrade its transaction code file.Yet the data that are stored among the card 17a do not change, because reader 17a is different with common card reader, it lacks encoder.Selectively, telephone set 10 can show the value of prepaid card 17a or the number of credit card 17b to the user.Perhaps, use green and red LED to make the user know that credit is obtainable or unavailable.

Verify and do not misapplied in order to ensure card loss or that be stolen, can be simply by check on the card 17a information with can verify by the information that Telephone Management System 100 periodically downloads on card 17a loss or that be stolen of telephone set 10, as shown in Figure 6.Yet, suppose that the user uses telephone set 10 to consume whole De $50 credits and also attempt reusing the still card 17a of Bao Cunyou $50 credit subsequently on telephone set 10 or other telephone sets.For the anti-situation of planting here, as shown in Figure 5, reprogramming telephone set 10 is to determine: (1) card 17a goes up stored sequence number and whether mates sequence number stored in the telephone set 10, reaches transaction code or sign that whether upward stored transaction code of (2) card 17a or sign (as the UNIX time mark) mate the last card 17a in the transaction file that has been stored in telephone set 10.If sequence number is not mated or transaction code is not mated, then the storage values of card 17a will not send telephone set 10 to.By this way, the used card 17a of telephone set 10 refusal, even the information on the card 17a because card reader 18a does not rewrite card 17a with use before identical.

2, the phonecard of selling automatically:

Though high safety, single phonecard 17a can only use with single portion telephone set 10, requires card 17a with previously selected telephone set 10 distribution.The method of eliminating this shortcoming has two kinds.

At first, card 17a can purchase by an automatic vending machine and sell.The client inserts automatic vending machine with cash or credit card and imports mobile number, ESN and other identifiers of telephone set 10.Can utilize this identifier and exclusive transaction code (as, time mark) that card 17a is encoded, checking is proceeded as shown in Figure 5.

Perhaps, do not require the user with specific mobile number programming card 17a, and can be only to utilizing exclusive transaction code that card 17a is encoded, this is particularly favourable when many telephone sets 10 have been configured to only verify according to transaction code.Yet the method requires telephone set 10 to programme again and removes card 17a, utilizes other telephone sets to reuse card 17A to prevent the user.Because card 17A can be wiped by whole, therefore need not to provide " writing " hardware to card reader 16A.

Optional feature

1, value adds function:

During calling out, the user can require to provide dtmf tone transfer with automated system (as, information system, company's catalogue guide, order system etc.) interface.Accomplish this point, the user only needs to press simply the numeral in the lower keyboard 14, starts dtmf tone built-in in the transceiver 24 and transfers generator or dtmf tone to transfer generator 44.Perhaps, after confirming " transmission " order via bus 50, the analog-to-digital conversion in the time of keyboard 14 signals stops, and microprocessor 30 definite callings are carried out, and dtmf signal is sent to transceiver 24 so that transmission from mobile phone 12 subsequently.This allow the TMF tone be able to by with the remote-control device that requires dtmf tone to transfer to carry out telephone operated machine 10 to communicate by uppick.

Because telephone set 10 is wireless, it also can be mounted in for example interior mobile phone of bus, subway, aircraft or taxi.In this case, the user may want a receipt, and telephone set 10 configurable printers in this case are as heat-sensitive printer.But this receipt record date, time, week, called-number, the number of minutes and calling charge.
