Specifically, in the case of an incoming call, an incoming call operation is performed according to a sequence as shown in FIG. In this figure, PS is PH
S indicates a terminal device (telephone), and CS indicates a base station.

In the case of an incoming call, an incoming message 2
01 is sent, the control unit 5 sends a link channel establishment request message 202 to the base station via the control channel.
Is sent. The base station receives this, detects a free link (communication) channel, and sends an assignment message 203 for the link channel via the control channel. In response, the control unit 5 transmits a synchronization burst 204 using the allocated link channel, and when synchronization is established, the control unit 5 transmits a synchronization burst 205 from the base station.

When the synchronization is established, the control unit 5 notifies the start of the setting of the confirmation type information transfer operation mode by the SABM signal 206, and the base station receiving the notification returns the confirmation of the initial setting by the UA signal 207. Upon receiving this, the control unit 5 transmits an incoming call response message 208 to the network. The network that has received the call response message 208 transmits a call setup message 209. This call setting message 209 contains the telephone number of the other party (source). In response to this, the control unit 5 returns the call setting acceptance message 210 and detects the caller information (the telephone number of the other party (caller)) as the telephone number detecting means 55.

When the notification information receiving instruction is set in the telephone (PHS terminal device), the control unit 5 transmits a definition information request message 211. The network receiving this returns the notification information by the definition information response 212. When the instruction of the RT (wireless management) function request is set, the control unit 5
Sends a function request message 213. The network which has received the request returns the RT function by the function request response message 214.

When the function request instruction is set, the control unit 5 transmits a function request message 216. The net receiving this,
The MM function is returned by the function request response message 217. Next, the network generates an authentication random number and notifies the authentication request message 218 of the random number. The control unit 5 receives this,
It encrypts a random number using its own authentication key and sends it to the network in an authentication response message 219. The network receiving this code encrypts the transmitted random number using the same authentication key as the telephone (PHS terminal device), and determines whether or not the received random number matches the received code. If the result of the determination is that there is a mismatch, the call release procedure is started in accordance with the rule of call disconnection recovery. If the result of the determination is that they match, the call connection is continued.

The control unit 5 generates a ringing sound by the sounder 54 to display an incoming call, and displays a calling message 22 indicating that a call is being made.

Then, the control unit 5 executes any key answer (ANY-K) based on the program of the flowchart shown in FIG.
EY-ANS.) Function is set or not (S1
1) If any key answer (ANY-KEY-ANS.) Function is set, it is detected whether any key operation has taken off-hook (S12).

On the other hand, if the any-key answer (ANY-KEY-ANS.) Function is not set, it is detected whether or not the display switching key of the operation unit 51 has been operated (S13), and the operation is performed. Then, for example, the display mode is switched from the display of the area of the transmission source as shown in FIG. 6 to the display by the calling telephone number as shown in FIG. 7 (S14 (display switching execution means 58)). Then, it is detected whether the off-hook operation has been performed by the response key (S15).
Returning to step S13, the process is continued, and when the display switching key is operated, the display returns to the original display mode. Also,
When it goes off-hook, it proceeds to call processing.

Further, a program as shown in FIG. 9 is stored in the memory unit 6, and it is possible to display an incoming call history at the time of absence (including non-response and the like). That is, when there is an incoming call and no response when the power is turned off or the like, the control unit 5 extracts the calling number and stores it in the memory unit 6 together with the incoming time (holding means). When a request for displaying a missed call is made, the request is accepted (S21),
It is detected whether the calling number is stored in the memory unit 6 (S2).
2) If it is stored, the process from step 2 onward in FIG. 3 is performed (S23). For example, the display is made as shown in FIGS. If not, the process ends.

When the display process according to the flowchart of FIG. 3 is performed, the operation of the transmission key is detected (S
24), when the operation is performed, a transmission process to the called party related to the display is performed (S25). If the transmission key is not operated, it is detected whether or not the next history display request is made (S26). If the next history display request is made,
The process returns to step S22 and continues. Further, the operation of the end key (or time up) is detected (S27),
It ends. As described above, when displaying the incoming call history, the area and phone type of the caller are also displayed, so you can roughly know the telephone charges required to make a call from here, In this case, it is possible to predict that the user is moving and prevent unnecessary calls.

In the above-described embodiment, the registration numbers in the station number table are the upper three digits of the telephone number. However, for example, the telephone type is five digits, and the station number is associated with the common carrier company name (information of the business operator). The data may be stored in the data storage unit 62, and the company name of the common carrier may be displayed.

Although the present invention has been described using the PHS as an example, the present invention is not limited to this, and it goes without saying that the present invention can be applied to other wireless communication terminals.
