Abstract

The method involves transmitting a response (5) to a central unit (2) i.e. road network, parking and traffic managing server, after a positive verification of a calling mobile terminal (1) i.e. mobile telephone. Elements responding to the response are determined from data of a service file stored in a storage unit, where each element is a distinct device to be controlled i.e. mobile terminal (4). A control order permitting execution of control by the device to be controlled is transmitted to the calling mobile terminal or to an order receiver (7) of the device to be controlled.

Description

La présente invention concerne un procédé de télécommunication pour commander un équipement. Elle s'applique notamment à la télécommande de serveurs, de portails, de portes, de bornes, ...The present invention relates to a telecommunication method for controlling equipment. It applies in particular to the remote control of servers, gates, doors, terminals, ...

Il est connu que les personnes aveugles ou malvoyantes sont particulièrement exposées dans leur déplacement autonome en agglomération que ce soit en tant que piétons ou usagers d'un transport en commun tel que le métro.It is known that people who are blind or visually impaired are particularly exposed in their autonomous movement in urban areas whether as pedestrians or users of public transport such as the metro.

Les personnes aveugles et malvoyantes peuvent avoir des difficultés à cheminer dans les stations de transport collectif ou pis, se trouver en situation de danger sur un quai à proximité immédiate d'une voie.Blind and partially sighted people may have difficulty walking in public transport stations or worse, finding themselves in danger on a dock in the immediate vicinity of a lane.

Or, avec le vieillissement de la population, le nombre de personnes souffrant de déficiences visuelles ne cesse de s'accroître.However, with the aging of the population, the number of people with visual impairments continues to grow.

Des systèmes basés sur les technologies de communication ont été développés ces dernières années pour améliorer la qualité de vie et la sécurité de ces personnes.Systems based on communication technologies have been developed in recent years to improve the quality of life and safety of these people.

On connaît ainsi des systèmes de détection de personnes malvoyantes basés sur la détection d'un badge porté par ces personnes, ces badges étant par exemple des badges d'identification radio fréquence (RFID - radio frequency identification). Ces systèmes délivrent alors automatiquement un ou plusieurs messages sonores à la personne malvoyante par le biais d'une oreillette portée par cette personne, ce message pouvant contenir une information sur la destination du transport à l'approche par exemple.Thus known detection systems visually impaired persons based on the detection of a badge worn by these people, these badges being for example radio frequency identification badges (RFID - radio frequency identification). These systems then automatically deliver one or more sound messages to the visually impaired person through a headset carried by this person, this message may contain information on the destination of the transport approach for example.

Toutefois, ces systèmes n'offrent pas d'accès adapté et/ou réservé à des services plus complexes pouvant être activés à distance par télécommande.However, these systems do not offer adapted and / or reserved access to more complex services that can be activated remotely by remote control.

Or, il serait important qu'une personne aveugle ou malvoyante puisse accéder à la demande à un service le renseignant vocalement sur un itinéraire à suivre dans le réseau de transport en commun et/ou sur des horaires de transport circulant en période de grève.However, it would be important for a blind or visually impaired person to be able to access the request from a service that gives them information on a route to be followed in the public transport network and / or on travel schedules during a strike.

Par ailleurs, le réseau de communication devrait autoriser la délivrance d'informations suffisamment riches, par exemple pour contenir toutes les informations relatives à un itinéraire, ce qu'un réseau infrarouge par exemple ne permet pas, ce dernier devenant par ailleurs inopérant dés qu'un obstacle s'interpose entre l'émetteur et le récepteur.Furthermore, the communication network should allow the issuance of sufficiently rich information, for example to contain all the information relating to a route, what an infrared network for example does not allow, the latter becoming otherwise inoperative as soon as an obstacle intervenes between the transmitter and the receiver.

On connaît encore un procédé de gestion de télécommandes contrôlées par des terminaux communicants, comprenant une étape de transmission à un système informatique centralisé d'un identifiant de l'utilisateur d'un terminal appelant et un identifiant d'un système informatique à télécommander.A method of managing remotes controlled by communicating terminals is also known, comprising a step of transmitting to a centralized computer system a user identifier of a calling terminal and an identifier of a computer system to be remotely controlled.

Le document US 7,295,252 , décrit par exemple un procédé permettant d'authentifier une télécommande, grâce à la transmission de son identificateur.The document US 7,295,252 , describes for example a method for authenticating a remote control, through the transmission of its identifier.

Après autorisation par le système informatique centralisé, ce dernier transmet directement au système informatique à télécommander une autorisation de réalisation de la commande.After authorization by the centralized computer system, the latter transmits directly to the computer system to remote control an authorization to carry out the order.

Ce procédé de télécommande donne de bons résultats, toutefois, il peut encore être amélioré.This remote control method gives good results, however, it can still be improved.

En effet, l'identifiant du système informatique à télécommander peut avoir fait l'objet d'une dégradation rendant sa lecture aléatoire ou incomplète et empêchant de ce fait l'activation à distance de ce système informatique.In fact, the identifier of the computer system to be remotely controlled may have been subject to a deterioration rendering it random or incomplete to read and thus preventing the remote activation of this computer system.

De manière plus générale, il serait intéressant de disposer d'un système de télécommande permettant à un usager autorisé d'accéder à des services fournis par des équipements qui ne se trouvent pas dans le champ visuel de l'usager.More generally, it would be advantageous to have a remote control system allowing an authorized user to access services provided by equipment that is not in the user's field of vision.

L'objectif de la présente invention est donc de proposer un procédé de télécommunication qui soit simple dans sa conception et dans son mode opératoire, fiable et économique, permettant un accès adapté et/ou réservé à des services dispensés par, ou mettant en oeuvre, un équipement pouvant être télécommandé.The objective of the present invention is therefore to propose a telecommunication method which is simple in its design and in its operating mode, reliable and economical, allowing adapted and / or reserved access to services provided by, or implementing, equipment that can be remote controlled.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne un procédé de télécommunication pour commander un équipement, dans lequel on établit une communication avec une unité centrale au moyen d'un terminal mobile par l'intermédiaire d'un réseau de communication, on transmet à cette unité centrale au moins un identifiant, ledit au moins un identifiant étant distinct de l'identifiant de l'équipement à commander, l'unité centrale vérifiant ledit au moins un identifiant ainsi transmis.For this purpose, the invention relates to a telecommunication method for controlling an equipment, in which a communication is established with a central unit by means of a mobile terminal via a communication network, this unit is transmitted to this unit. central at least one identifier, said at least one identifier being distinct from the identifier of the equipment to be controlled, the central unit verifying said at least one identifier thus transmitted.

Selon l'invention,

  1. a) l'unité centrale envoie audit terminal mobile au moins une requête de service Si par l'intermédiaire du réseau de communication, au moins une de ces requêtes étant liée au moins audit équipement à commander,
  2. b) seulement après une vérification positive du terminal mobile appelant par cette unité centrale, on transmet à l'unité centrale une réponse à ladite au moins une requête au moyen du terminal mobile appelant, cette réponse comprenant au moins la sélection de la requête liée au moins audit équipement à commander pour le service Si,
  3. c) l'unité centrale comporte une unité de traitement déterminant les éléments répondant à ladite réponse, parmi la ou les données d'au moins un fichier de service Si stocké dans une unité de stockage, chacun de ces éléments étant un équipement distinct,
  4. d) l'unité centrale transmet au moins un ordre de commande permettant l'exécution de cette commande par au moins l'équipement à commander au terminal mobile appelant ou directement à un récepteur d'ordres dudit au moins équipement à commander.
According to the invention,
  1. a) the central unit sends to said mobile terminal at least one service request S i via the communication network, at least one of these requests being linked at least to said equipment to be controlled,
  2. b) only after a positive verification of the calling mobile terminal by this central unit, the central unit is transmitted to the central unit a response to the said at least one request by means of the calling mobile terminal, this response comprising at least the selection of the request related to the less to said equipment to be controlled for the service S i ,
  3. c) the central unit comprises a processing unit determining the elements responding to said response, among the data or data of at least one service file S i stored in a storage unit, each of these elements being a separate piece of equipment,
  4. d) the central unit transmits at least one command order allowing the execution of this command by at least the equipment to be controlled to the calling mobile terminal or directly to a command receiver of said at least equipment to be controlled.

On entend par "terminal mobile" que ce terminal permet à l'utilisateur d'établir une communication avec l'unité centrale sans être relié par une liaison filaire telle qu'un câble, à cette unité centrale.
A titre purement illustratif, ce terminal mobile peut par conséquent être choisi dans le groupe comprenant un téléphone mobile, un assistant numérique personnel ou encore un dispositif de navigation tel qu'un appareil de navigation utilisant le GPS (système de positionnement global), ou analogue.The term "mobile terminal" means that this terminal allows the user to establish communication with the central unit without being connected by a wired link such as a cable to this central unit.
As a purely illustrative example, this mobile terminal can therefore be chosen from the group comprising a mobile phone, a personal digital assistant or a navigation device such as a navigation device using GPS (global positioning system), or the like .

Avantageusement, le réseau de communication est un réseau téléphonique. Toutefois, lorsque un tel réseau n'est pas accessible, le réseau de communication peut, par exemple, être un réseau sans fil local (WLAN - Wireless Local Area Networks) tel que Wi-Fi.Advantageously, the communication network is a telephone network. However, when such a network is not accessible, the communication network may, for example, be a wireless local area network (WLAN) such as Wi-Fi.

On entend par "équipement", un dispositif physique comportant un récepteur d'ordres en vue d'exécuter une commande et éventuellement un émetteur pour délivrer des données d'état de ce dispositif ou acquitter l'exécution d'une commande.
A titre purement illustratif, cet équipement peut être un portail, une borne, un système informatique tel qu'un serveur. Ce dernier peut ainsi être commandé pour transmettre au terminal portable appelant de l'utilisateur une ou plusieurs informations telles que la fourniture de documents ou de pages web, ces pages web fournissant par exemple un itinéraire.The term "equipment" is understood to mean a physical device comprising an order receiver for executing a command and possibly a transmitter for delivering status data of this device or acknowledging the execution of a command.
As a purely illustrative example, this equipment can be a portal, a terminal, a computer system such as a server. The latter can be controlled to transmit to the user's portable terminal calling one or more information such as the supply of documents or web pages, these web pages providing for example a route.

Bien entendu, le terminal mobile ayant établi une communication avec l'unité centrale par l'intermédiaire d'un réseau de communication, les étapes de transmission à, ou de vérification par, cette unité centrale dudit au moins un identifiant et d'envoi par cette unité centrale d'au moins une requête de service Si par l'intermédiaire de ce réseau de communication sont, de manière générale, non successives. Elles peuvent donc être réalisées dans un ordre quelconque. La seule condition posée se trouve à l'étape b) lorsque l'utilisateur souhaite sélectionner une des requêtes de service Si, cette étape n'étant rendue possible que si l'identifiant unique transmis par le terminal mobile a été reconnu positivement par l'unité centrale.
Lorsque la vérification par l'unité centrale de l'identifiant s'avère négative, l'utilisateur du terminal mobile appelant en est informée ainsi qu'éventuellement la cause de son rejet, telle que l'expiration d'une autorisation temporaire.
La vérification par l'unité centrale est, par exemple, réalisée par comparaison de l'identifiant transmis avec les données d'un fichier d'identifiants autorisés stocké dans une unité de stockage.
A titre illustratif, cet identifiant unique peut être un numéro d'abonné ou de carte telle qu'une carte d'handicapé, ou encore un identifiant unique temporaire obtenu suite à l'acquittement d'un droit tel qu'un tarif d'entrée dans un centre culturel.Of course, the mobile terminal having established a communication with the central unit via a communication network, the steps of transmission to, or verification by, this central unit of said at least one identifier and sending by this central unit of at least one service request S i via this communication network is, in general, not successive. They can therefore be performed in any order. The only condition posed is in step b) when the user wishes to select one of the service requests S i , this step being made possible only if the unique identifier transmitted by the mobile terminal has been positively recognized by the user. central unit.
When the verification by the central unit of the identifier is negative, the user of the calling mobile terminal is informed and possibly the cause of its rejection, such as the expiration of a temporary authorization.
The verification by the central unit is, for example, performed by comparing the transmitted identifier with the data of an authorized identifier file stored in a storage unit.
By way of illustration, this unique identifier may be a subscriber or card number such as a handicapped card, or a temporary unique identifier obtained following the payment of a fee such as an entrance fee. in a cultural center.

Dans différents modes de réalisation particuliers de ce procédé de télécommunication, chacun ayant ses avantages particuliers et susceptibles de nombreuses combinaisons techniques possibles:

  • on géolocalise le terminal mobile appelant et à l'étape b), ia réponse comporte également une entrée définissant le périmètre Pi à couvrir autour de la position géolocalisée de ce terminal mobile appelant pour le service Si,
L'utilisateur du terminal mobile qui désire actionner un équipement se trouvant à sa proximité immédiate, par exemple un portillon, peut ainsi choisir un périmètre Pi restreint afin de s'assurer que seul cet équipement lui sera proposé par l'unité centrale en vue de le télécommander. Avantageusement, la géolocalisation permet de déterminer la position du terminal mobile appelant avec une grande précision. Cette géolocalisation peut ainsi être obtenue par un système de GPS différentiel (DGPS - Differential global positioning system).
  • on géolocalise le terminal mobile appelant et à l'étape c), et en l'absence d'une définition du périmètre Pi à couvrir autour de la position géolocalisée du terminal mobile appelant pour ledit service Si, l'unité centrale définit le périmètre Pi.
Ainsi, l'unité centrale peut définir par défaut un périmètre Pi à couvrir autour de la position géolocalisée du terminal mobile appelant dans lequel elle doit chercher un équipement pour fournir un service Si à l'utilisateur du terminal mobile appelant ou un équipement que cette utilisateur cherche à télécommander, cet équipement étant lié à un service Si.
Ce périmètre Pi est, par conséquent, défini par défaut par l'unité centrale pour procéder via son unité de traitement et ses fichiers stockés dans une unité de stockage, aux recherches des équipements répondant aux critères de la réponse fournie à l'étape b) du procédé.
A titre purement illustratif, l'unité de stockage peut comporter un fichier Périmètre dans lequel l'unité centrale stocke pour chaque équipement identifié auprès de cette unité centrale et pour chaque service Si offert par cet équipement, les périmètres Pi définis par les utilisateurs des terminaux mobiles à partir de la position géolocalisée de leur terminal mobile appelant pour faire exécuter une commande par cet équipement. Ainsi, l'unité de traitement est capable de déterminer pour chaque nouvelle requête pour ce service Si ou l'équipement offrant ce service Si un périmètre moyen à partir d'une position géolocalisée du terminal mobile appelant.
  • à l'étape c), ledit élément étant unique dans le périmètre Pi à couvrir autour de la position géolocalisée de ce terminai mobile appelant, l'unité centrale transmet un ordre de commande permettant l'exécution de ladite commande directement à un récepteur d'ordres de cet élément. L'utilisateur du terminal mobile n'a ainsi aucune autre action à entreprendre pour faire exécuter la commande par cet élément qui est l'équipement à télécommander.
  • l'ordre de commande étant reçu par ledit terminal mobile appelant, ledit terminal mobile délivre cet ordre de commande à un récepteur d'ordres dudit au moins équipement à commander par un moyen de communication sans fil à courte portée.
Ce moyen de communication sans fil à courte portée peut être de type réseaux sans fils personnels (WPAN - Wireless Personal Area Networks) : Bluetooth, Infrarouge, ZigBee ou encore réseaux sans fils locaux (WLAN - Wireless Local Area Networks) : Wi-Fi.
  • à l'étape c), le nombre d'éléments étant supérieur à un, l'unité centrale transmet avant l'étape d) audit terminal mobile appelant une deuxième requête par l'intermédiaire du réseau de communication visant à faire sélectionner parmi les éléments répondant à ladite réponse pour le service Si, au moins un élément, et on transmet au moyen dudit terminal mobile appelant une deuxième réponse à cette deuxième requête à l'unité centrale, cette deuxième réponse comprenant ledit au moins un élément sélectionné,
Ainsi, l'utilisateur du terminal mobile ayant plusieurs équipements distincts offrant le service Si demandé à sa disponibilité; l'unité centrale propose avantageusement à cet utilisateur de choisir au moins un de ces équipements.
  • à l'étape a), l'unité centrale envoie audit terminal mobile appelant plusieurs requêtes par l'intermédiaire dudit réseau de communication, chacune de ces requêtes correspondant à un service Si distinct,
  • le terminal mobile comporte une interface permettant de délivrer ces requêtes à l'usager sous forme vocale et/ou de recevoir des réponses orales de l'usager,
  • le terminal mobile comporte une interface graphique permettant d'afficher ces requêtes à l'usager sous forme visuelle,
  • le procédé comporte une étape de vérification par ladite unité centrale de la disponibilité de chacun desdits éléments ainsi déterminés à l'étape c),
A cet effet, l'unité centrale interroge individuellement les éléments pour obtenir des données d'état desdits éléments par l'intermédiaire du réseau de communication.
Alternativement, un système informatique tiers transmet à ladite unité centrale des données d'état de ces éléments par l'intermédiaire du réseau de communication.
L'utilisateur du terminal mobile appelant est donc avantageusement informé de la disponibilité de tel ou tel autre équipement offrant le service Si afin de le guider dans sa sélection éventuelle de l'équipement à télécommander pour obtenir le service Si.
Alternativement, l'unité centrale étant informée de la disponibilité des équipements distincts offrant le service Si, elle peut omettre de transmettre les équipements non disponibles audit terminal mobile.

In various particular embodiments of this telecommunication method, each having its particular advantages and susceptible to many possible technical combinations:
  • the calling mobile terminal is geolocated and in step b), the response also includes an entry defining the perimeter P i to be covered around the geolocated position of this calling mobile terminal for the service S i ,
The user of the mobile terminal who wishes to operate an equipment located in its immediate vicinity, for example a gate, can thus choose a restricted perimeter P i to ensure that only this equipment will be proposed to him by the central unit in order to remote control. Advantageously, the geolocation makes it possible to determine the position of the calling mobile terminal with great precision. This geolocation can thus be obtained by a Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS).
  • the calling mobile terminal is geolocated and in step c), and in the absence of a definition of the perimeter P i to be covered around the geolocated position of the calling mobile terminal for said service S i , the central unit defines the perimeter P i .
Thus, the central unit may define by default a perimeter P i to be covered around the location position of the calling mobile terminal in which it must look for equipment to provide a service S i to the user of the calling mobile terminal or equipment that this user seeks to remotely control, this equipment being linked to a service S i .
This perimeter P i is, therefore, defined by default by the central unit to proceed via its processing unit and its files stored in a storage unit, searches equipment responding to the criteria of the response provided in step b ) of the process.
As a purely illustrative example, the storage unit may include a Perimeter file in which the central unit stores for each equipment identified with this central unit and for each service S i offered by this equipment, the perimeters P i defined by the users. mobile terminals from the geolocated position of their mobile terminal calling to execute a command by this equipment. Thus, the processing unit is able to determine for each new request for this service S i or equipment providing this service S i average perimeter from a geolocated position of the calling mobile terminal.
  • in step c), said element being unique in the perimeter P i to be covered around the geolocated position of this calling mobile terminal, the central unit transmits a command order allowing the execution of said command directly to a command receiver of this element. The user of the mobile terminal thus has no other action to take to execute the command by this element which is the equipment to be controlled.
  • the control command being received by said calling mobile terminal, said mobile terminal delivers this control command to a command receiver of said at least one equipment to be controlled by a short-range wireless communication means.
This short-range wireless communication means may be of the wireless personal area networks (WPAN) type: Bluetooth, Infrared, ZigBee or wireless local area networks (WLAN): Wi-Fi.
  • in step c), the number of elements being greater than one, the central unit transmits before step d) to the mobile terminal calling a second request via the communication network to select from the elements responding to said response for the service S i , at least one element, and transmitting by means of said calling mobile terminal a second response to this second request to the central unit, said second response comprising said at least one selected element,
Thus, the user of the mobile terminal having several separate equipment offering the service S i asked for its availability; the central unit advantageously offers this user to choose at least one of these devices.
  • in step a), the central unit sends to said mobile terminal calling several requests via said communication network, each of these requests corresponding to a separate service S i ,
  • the mobile terminal includes an interface for delivering these requests to the user in voice form and / or receiving oral responses from the user,
  • the mobile terminal includes a graphical interface for displaying these requests to the user in visual form,
  • the method comprises a step of verification by said central unit of the availability of each of said elements thus determined in step c),
For this purpose, the central unit interrogates the elements individually to obtain state data of said elements via the communication network.
Alternatively, a third computer system transmits to said central unit status data of these elements via the communication network.
The user of the calling mobile terminal is therefore advantageously informed of the availability of this or that other equipment offering the service S i to guide it in its possible selection of the equipment to be controlled to obtain the service S i .
Alternatively, the central unit being informed of the availability of the separate equipment offering the service S i , it may omit transmitting the unavailable equipment to said mobile terminal.
  • the method comprises a step of acknowledging the execution of the command by said equipment to be controlled at least towards said central unit, said central unit then sending to said mobile terminal at least one request from another service S i linked to said equipment to control via said communication network.

L'invention sera décrite plus en détail en référence à l'unique dessin annexé montrant schématiquement un logigramme d'un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention;The invention will be described in more detail with reference to the single appended drawing schematically showing a logic diagram of a particular embodiment of the invention;

La Figure unique montre un logigramme d'un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention.The single figure shows a flowchart of a preferred embodiment of the invention.

L'utilisateur d'un terminal mobile 1 à bord de son véhicule établit en premier lieu une communication avec une unité centrale 2 au moyen de ce terminal mobile 1 par l'intermédiaire d'un réseau de communication.The user of a mobile terminal 1 on board his vehicle first establishes a communication with a central unit 2 by means of this mobile terminal 1 via a communication network.

Ce terminal mobile 1 est un téléphone mobile comprenant un écran, une interface graphique, un clavier numérique et une mémoire. Le réseau de communication supportant cette communication est le réseau de téléphonie mobile.This mobile terminal 1 is a mobile phone comprising a screen, a graphical interface, a keypad and a memory. The communication network supporting this communication is the mobile telephone network.

L'établissement de la communication avec l'unité centrale 2 est, par exemple, obtenu en composant ou dictant un numéro de téléphone d'une ligne téléphonique à laquelle l'unité centrale 2 est reliée.The establishment of the communication with the central unit 2 is, for example, obtained by dialing or dialing a telephone number of a telephone line to which the central unit 2 is connected.

Une fois la communication établie, l'utilisateur transmet à cette unité centrale 2 un identifiant unique distinct de l'identifiant de l'équipement à commander. Cet identifiant est, par exemple, un code temporaire généré par une machine suite à l'acquittement d'un droit d'entrée dans une zone d'accès réservé, l'accès à cette zone étant contrôlé par des bornes mobiles. L'utilisateur du terminal mobile à bord de son véhicule ne connaît pas l'identifiant de la borne qu'il devra commander pour pénétrer dans cette zone d'accès limité.Once communication is established, the user transmits to this central unit 2 a unique identifier distinct from the identifier of the equipment to be controlled. This identifier is, for example, a temporary code generated by a machine following the acknowledgment of an entry fee in a reserved access zone, access to this zone being controlled by mobile terminals. The user of the mobile terminal aboard his vehicle does not know the identifier of the terminal that he will have to order to enter this limited access zone.

L'unité centrale 2 qui est, par exemple, un serveur gérant la voirie, le stationnement et le trafic, vérifie l'identifiant unique ainsi transmis et envoie au terminal mobile 2 plusieurs requêtes de service Si 3 par l'intermédiaire du réseau de communication.The central unit 2 which is, for example, a server managing the road, the parking and the traffic, checks the unique identifier thus transmitted and sends to the mobile terminal 2 several service requests S i 3 via the network of communication.

Chacune de ces requêtes propose un service Si différent à l'utilisateur du terminal mobile appelant 1. Une première requête S 1 peut être un service d'informations permettant de définir un itinéraire par exemple, une deuxième requête S 2 peut être un service de nettoyage de véhicule, une troisième requête S 3 peut être un service de stationnement. Chacune de ces requêtes S 1 , S 2 , S 3 est liée à un ou plusieurs équipements distincts. La requête S 1 peut ainsi être liée à un serveur informatique, la requête S 2 peut être liée à une station de lavage automatique tandis que la requête S 3 peut être liée à un ensemble de bornes mobiles distinctes 4 contrôlant l'accès à au moins un parc de stationnement, une de ces bornes mobiles étant celle que veut commander l'utilisateur pour accéder au parc de stationnement.Each of these requests proposes a different service S i to the user of the mobile terminal calling 1. A first request S 1 can be an information service making it possible to define a route for example, a second request S 2 can be a service of vehicle cleaning, a third request S 3 can be a parking service. Each of these requests S 1 , S 2 , S 3 is linked to one or more separate devices. The request S 1 can thus be linked to a computer server, the request S 2 can be linked to an automatic washing station while the request S 3 can be linked to a set of distinct mobile terminals 4 controlling the access to at least a parking lot, one of these mobile terminals being the one that wants to order the user to access the parking lot.

Seulement après une vérification positive du terminal mobile appelant 1 par l'unité centrale 2, l'utilisateur peut transmettre à l'unité centrale 2 une réponse 5 à l'une des requêtes reçues sur son terminal mobile 1 au moyen de ce terminal mobile appelant. Cette réponse comprend, par exemple, la sélection de la requête S 3 de service de stationnement.Only after a positive verification of the calling mobile terminal 1 by the central unit 2, the user can transmit to the central unit 2 a response to one of the requests received on his mobile terminal 1 by means of this mobile terminal calling . This response includes, for example, the selection of the parking service request S 3 .

L'unité centrale 2 comporte une unité de traitement (non représentée) déterminant les éléments répondant à cette réponse, parmi les données d'au moins un fichier de service S 3 stocké dans une unité de stockage (non représentée).The central unit 2 comprises a processing unit (not shown) determining the elements responding to this response, among the data of at least one service file S 3 stored in a storage unit (not shown).

Les éléments répondant à cette réponse peuvent être multiples par exemple parce que l'unité centrale 2 gère plusieurs parcs de stationnement.The elements responding to this response can be multiple for example because the central unit 2 manages several parking lots.

L'unité centrale 2 transmet alors à ce terminal mobile appelant 1 une deuxième requête par l'intermédiaire du réseau de communication visant à faire sélectionner parmi ces éléments répondant à la réponse pour le service S 3 , le parc de stationnement intéressant l'utilisateur du terminal mobile appelant 1.The central unit 2 then transmits to this calling mobile terminal 1 a second request via the communication network for selecting among these elements responding to the response for the service S 3 , the parking lot of interest to the user of the calling mobile terminal 1.

L'utilisateur transmet au moyen du terminal mobile appelant 1 une deuxième réponse à cette deuxième requête à l'unité centrale 2, cette deuxième réponse sélectionnant le parc de stationnement intéressant directement l'utilisateur.The user transmits by means of the calling mobile terminal 1 a second response to this second request to the central unit 2, this second response selecting the parking lot of interest directly to the user.

L'unité centrale 2 peut alors envoyer une troisième requête par l'intermédiaire du réseau de communication visant à faire sélectionner parmi les bornes mobiles 4 contrôlant l'accès au parc de stationnement sélectionné la borne mobile à commander.The central unit 2 can then send a third request via the communication network for selecting from the mobile terminals 4 controlling access to the selected parking lot the mobile terminal to be controlled.

Ces bornes 4 étant, par exemple, repérées chacune par une couleur distincte, l'utilisateur n'a plus qu'à transmettre la couleur de la borne qu'il souhaite commander à l'unité centrale 2 par le biais de son terminal mobile appelant 1 et via le réseau de communication.These terminals 4 being, for example, each marked with a distinct color, the user only has to transmit the color of the terminal he wishes to control to the central unit 2 through his calling mobile terminal. 1 and via the communication network.

L'unité centrale 2 transmet alors un ordre de commande permettant l'exécution de la commande par la borne mobile 4 à commander au terminal mobile appelant 1 ou directement 6 à un récepteur d'ordres 7 de la borne mobile 4 à commander.The central unit 2 then transmits a control command allowing the execution of the command by the mobile terminal 4 to be controlled to the mobile terminal calling 1 or directly 6 to a command receiver 7 of the mobile terminal 4 to be controlled.

Il s'ensuit une étape d'exécution par la borne mobile 4 de la commande qui s'abaisse pour laisser libre le passage au véhicule de l'utilisateur du terminal mobile appelant 1.It follows a step of execution by the mobile terminal 4 of the command which is lowered to allow free passage to the vehicle of the user of the mobile terminal calling 1.

Après exécution de la commande, la borne mobile 4 qui est équipée d'un émetteur 8 peut transmettre au terminal mobile appelant 1 par une communication 9 ou à l'unité centrale 2 par une communication 10, un acquittement de la commande exécutée par cet équipement 4.After execution of the command, the mobile terminal 4 which is equipped with a transmitter 8 can transmit to the calling mobile terminal 1 by a communication 9 or to the central unit 2 by a communication 10, an acknowledgment of the command executed by this equipment 4.

Si le terminal mobile portable 2 reçoit directement de l'unité centrale 2 l'ordre de commande permettant l'exécution de la commande par la borne mobile 4 à commander, ce terminal mobile délivre 11 cet ordre de commande au récepteur d'ordres 7 de la borne mobile 4 à commander par un moyen de communication sans fil à courte portée.If the mobile mobile terminal 2 receives directly from the central unit 2 the command order allowing the execution of the command by the mobile terminal 4 to be controlled, this mobile terminal delivers this command command to the command receiver 7 of the the mobile terminal 4 to be controlled by a short-range wireless communication means.
