Fig. 1 is the structural representation of portable terminal of the present invention, and as seen from the figure, this portable terminal comprises:
Terminal body, terminal body is provided with control module, the various operations of this control module control portable terminal;
Be arranged on the identification module on the terminal body, this identification module receives the control signal of control module, and communicates with the identification module that is arranged on the position reference object, and portable terminal is positioned; This control signal comprises that driving identification module begins the identification marking module and drive identification module to stop the identification marking module;
Trigger module: be provided with object identification and drive trigger condition, it is fast to the control mould that this trigger module sends triggering signal, carries out corresponding operating with the control identification module.This triggering signal comprises that condition satisfies and the satisfied trigger message that waits of condition.
This trigger module can be provided with separately, also can be arranged in the portable terminal control module.
When adopting technical solution of the present invention to position, as shown in Figure 2, can be provided with in the following manner:
Be set as follows at portable terminal and position reference object at first respectively:
On the position reference object, an identification module is set, this identification module is in order to identify specific position reference object.The quantity of this identification module can be set to a plurality ofly, so different identification modules can be set in different geographical position, and portable terminal just can be located different places respectively.
Identification module is set on portable terminal, and this identification module is corresponding with this identification module, can be by wireless signal searches, discern this identification module.Seeing also application number about identification module and identification module technology is 02125256.4, and denomination of invention is the patent application of " a kind of sign of physical object and recognition methods ", and this paper no longer is described in detail this.
Above-mentioned portable terminal can be mobile phone, palmtop PC (PDA), portable machine, PC (PC) etc.
In this portable terminal, the driving trigger condition is set, and whether satisfies according to this driving trigger condition and to decide the unlatching that drives the recognition function of identification module on the portable terminal or close.
Above-mentioned driving trigger condition can have multiplely, carries out different settings according to different demands.
Can be set to portable terminal such as this driving trigger condition and receive the recognition function that starts or close this identification module of identification after the user's operating command.Supress a special key and can send an order such as being set to the user, after portable terminal is received this order, start or close corresponding recognition function to portable terminal.Certainly, also can in a portable terminal actions menu, increase and start/close recognition function, when actions menu is " startup recognition function ", when carrying out this menucommand, the portable terminal control module starts the identification module recognition function, and is " closing recognition function " with menu setting; Otherwise, to carry out this menu and " close recognition function " when order, the portable terminal control module will be closed the identification module recognition function, and menu is re-set as " startup recognition function ".
This trigger condition can be set to portable terminal and enter or leave a band of position, also be, the current location area information of portable terminal satisfies the band of position that sets in advance, perhaps after satisfying this condition, because the shift position, the band of position that makes current position area information not satisfy again to set in advance.Like this, after entering or leave a band of position, the user starts or closes the function of this identification module of identification.Such as, the user can obtain the location area code in office place, and be kept in the portable terminal, when portable terminal upgrades in the position,, detect the band of position that oneself whether has entered office space by the location area code of comparison oneself preservation and current location area code, if, then satisfy entering trigger condition, at this moment, portable terminal starts corresponding recognition function.If leave the band of position of this office space, then satisfy and leave trigger condition, portable terminal is closed this recognition function.
This position is upgraded and can be meant the position renewal of portable terminal in communication network; Also can refer to the position renewal in WLAN (WLAN).The location updating message that portable terminal issues by the reception network is learnt and oneself is entered the new band of position.
This communication network can be mobile communications network, such as hand-phone system (PHS) network, global system for mobile communications (GSM) network, code division multiple access (CDMA) network, Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) (WCDMA) network or the like) or WLAN.
Portable terminal can change at the current location area information and just detect the new band of position and whether satisfied preset triggering conditions.Such as, portable terminal finds that perhaps base coded information changes because roaming finds that variation has taken place current cell information, find that perhaps WLAN access point AP coded message changes, at this moment, whether portable terminal detects new position area information and whether satisfies preset triggering conditions, be the band of position that sets in advance promptly, if, the condition that then enters this band of position satisfies, and at this moment, mobile phone drives identification module and begins the identification marking module; If detecting new position area information, portable terminal do not satisfy preset triggering conditions, promptly, the current location area information is not the band of position that sets in advance yet, and then mobile phone judges whether identification module is in status recognition, if then stop the identifying operation of identification module.
When identification module is set to a plurality of the time, corresponding, the mapping table of the band of position and identification module can also be set, as shown in the table:
Band of position ID Identification module ID The sign object oriented
Sub-district 1 coding ?HomeID Family
Lane place 2 codings ?OfficeID Office
Sub-district 3 codings ?ClassroomID The classroom
WLAN access point AP1 coding ?ChurchID The church
WLAN access point AP2 coding ?CinemaID Movie theatre
Area I D adds that by area type regional code constitutes in the last table.Such as, it is 1 that the cell area type can be set, the area type of AP overlay area is 2.
Like this, when portable terminal enters the band of position of a setting, start identification module Search Flags module, search for appointment and those identification modules this band of position correspondence.
This identification module stops identification when recognizing a set identification module, at this moment, the identification module of portable terminal is only periodically detected the sign scope (also being the valid wireless range of signal) of whether having left this identification module, and no longer continues the new identification module of search.Here, and when further being included in the sign scope of leaving this identification module, judge whether the current location zone is the set band of position, if then reenter status recognition.
This identification module stops identification when recognizing pairing all identification modules in current location zone, at this moment, the identification module of portable terminal is only periodically detected the sign scope (also being the valid wireless range of signal) of whether having left these identification modules, and no longer continues the new identification module of search.Here, and when leaving the sign scope of one of them identification module, judge whether the current location zone is the set band of position, if then reenter status recognition.
This trigger condition can also be that portable terminal detects a special state appearance.Such as, for the portable terminal that is provided with the noise measuring function, can be set to detected noise arrive what decibel the time begin to start recognition function.
Such as, with " position area information is region, office place " when being set to trigger condition, portable terminal is preserved the position area information in office place, like this, the location updating message that receives network at portable terminal next time is when entering the band of position at this place, office place, when promptly the position area information of Jie Shouing becomes the band of position at the place, office place of being preserved, just start recognition function, search for identification module, thereby find the identification module of coupling the office place that is provided with.Such as, in place, get the information and the preservation of respective cell, and identification module is set in these places to the needs location; When mobile phone roams into this sub-district next time, communication network can send cell id to mobile phone, mobile phone is according to the cell information of preserving, compare, if find, the place that mobile phone may enter into needs the location is described, then begin to carry out positioning function, promptly start identification module Search Flags module, thus the place that discovery will be located.
Be example with global system for mobile communications (GSM) below, in the gsm mobile telephone system, its covering is divided into some lane place.The lane place is used for the position among the mobile network at identifying user place.There is a unique sign LAI (Location Area Code) each lane place, can discern the diverse location district in the different network of country variant.The sign of lane place is constructed as follows:
LAI=MCC+MNC+LAC
Wherein:
MCC is the country code of mobile radio communication, the home country of difference network;
MNC is a mobile network code, MNC, distinguishes the different GSM mobile communications network in the country;
LAC is the lane place code, is used for discerning the diverse location district of a GSM network.
The sign of lane place is to broadcast on the broadcast channel of system, and the mobile phone in the area of coverage of system can receive this information, thereby knows the position that mobile phone is current.
Each lane place is made up of some sub-districts, number can further dwindle regional extent by cell identification.Promptly the sign that this band of position can the use location district is represented, the cell ID under also can the use location district is represented.
This band of position also can use base coded to represent, at this moment, requires network that the sign of base station is sent to portable terminal.Like this, band of position scope promptly is the range of signal that can receive the base coded that transmits this base station.
For WLAN, Location Area Identification can be the coding of corresponding access point (AP).Like this, band of position scope promptly is to receive the AP encoded signals scope that this AP transmits.
For hand-phone system (PHS), Location Area Identification can be the coding of corresponding PHS base station, or the coding of respective cell.Like this, band of position scope promptly is the range of signal that can receive the base coded that transmits this PHS base station.
Above-mentioned trigger condition also can be a compound condition, such as, the trigger condition of setting can be the coding that the band of position is encoded to region, office place, simultaneously, the decibel value of the detected noise of mobile phone is lower than some specific values.
Terminal of the present invention obtains a big zone location information automatically by macroreticular, further judges whether to start the positive location function in little zone according to this big zone location information.By this combined positioning-method, all open recognition function when making portable terminal when not required, reduced the energy consumption of portable terminal, prolongs standby time.
