However, the controller 81 has a built-in storage unit 81A composed of a flash memory or the like. The storage unit 81A stores entry information transmitted from the entrance management device 1 and entry information transmitted from the entry management device 2.

FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of entry information and entry information (hereinafter collectively referred to as entry / exit information as necessary) stored in the storage section 81A.

In this example, the mobile phone ID as the identification information of the mobile phone 21 is “A01234”, and the balance of the prepaid money amount information indicating the amount that can be paid by the user is “3000 yen”. The prepaid amount information is written when the user accesses a predetermined center and pays the price with a credit card or the like.

The storage unit 81A stores the entrance management device 1
From, the entrance station (entrance ticket gate ID) that is notified as entry information when entering, and the entry date and time, and from the entry management device 2, the entry station (entrance ticket gate ID) that is notified as entry information when entering, And the participation date and time are stored.
Further, the storage unit 81A stores the state of the power supply of the mobile phone 21 at the time of entry.

For example, when the user of the mobile phone 21 passes through the entrance ticket gate of “Tokyo Station” with ID = 001 at “9:00 am on October 10”, the storage unit 81A corresponding to the entrance station
"Tokyo Station 001" as the address and "October 10 at 9am" in the address of the storage unit 81A corresponding to the date and time of entry.
Are respectively stored. The entry management device 2 includes a storage unit 8
The fare is calculated based on the entry information stored in 1A. The information of the entrance station and the like are stored by preset code information.

The short-range communication section 21B further has a power supply section 84. The power supply unit 84 supplies power generated by the coil 85A receiving the electromagnetic wave transmitted from the short-range communication unit 11 of the entrance management device 1 to the controller 81, the modulation unit 82, and the demodulation unit 83, The controller 81, the modulator 82, and the demodulator 83 are made operable.

Thus, the entrance management device 1 (or the entry management device 2) drives the controller 81 by transmitting electromagnetic waves to the mobile phone 21 even when the power of the mobile phone 21 is off. be able to.

When the power button PW is turned on by an operation of the user of the mobile phone 21, the power control section 21C supplies power from the built-in battery pack to make the communication section 21A operable. .

The power control unit 21C controls the supply of power to the communication unit 21A by switching the power button PW on and off based on a command from the short-range communication unit 21B (controller 81). For example, when a control signal instructing to turn off (turn off) the power is transmitted from the short-distance communication unit 11 of the entrance management device 1, the controller 81 of the short-distance communication unit 21B sends a signal to the power control unit 21C. On the other hand, it instructs that the supply of power to the communication unit 21A is stopped (the communication is disabled).

When the power of the mobile phone 21 is not turned on (off state), a control signal for instructing to turn on (turn on) is transmitted from the short-range communication unit 11 of the participation management device 2. The short-range communication unit 2
The 1B controller 81 sends a signal to the power control unit 21C.
It instructs to supply power to the communication unit 21A (to make the communication unit 21A communicable).

Next, a series of basic processes from the time when the user of the mobile phone 21 enters the premises of the station until the time when the user enters the station will be described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS.

First, a basic entrance management process of the entrance management device 1 installed at the entrance ticket gate will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

In step S1, the C of the entrance management device 1
The PU 31 determines whether the mobile phone 21 exists within the communicable range. That is, the controller 51 of the short-range communication unit 11 of the entrance management device 1 controls the modulation unit 52 in response to a command from the CPU 31 to constantly transmit an electromagnetic wave of a predetermined frequency from the resonance circuit 54 (comparison with the movement of a person). do it,
The transmission is performed at a sufficiently short predetermined interval (for example, periodically at an interval of several milliseconds). CPU 31 waits for a response from mobile phone 21.

When the user brings the portable telephone 21 close to the short-range communication unit 11, the resonance circuit 85 of the portable telephone 21 detects the electromagnetic wave from the coil 54A of the short-range communication unit 11, and demodulates the detection signal. 83. Demodulation unit 83
Demodulates the detection signal and outputs the demodulation result to the controller 81. At this time, the controller 81
And modulate the response signal. This response signal is transmitted from the coil 85A of the resonance circuit 85 to the short-range communication unit 11.

When receiving the electromagnetic wave from the mobile phone 21, the resonance circuit 54 of the short-range communication section 11 outputs a detection signal to the demodulation section 53 to demodulate the signal. Controller 51
Receives the demodulated signal from the demodulation unit 53 and outputs a corresponding signal to the CPU 31.

When the CPU 31 determines that the mobile phone 21 is within the traversable range based on the signal from the short-range communication section 11, the CPU 31 proceeds to the process of step S2, and the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 On the other hand, a request is made to store the current state of the power supply of the communication unit 21A (the state of power supply by the power supply control unit 21C).

In step S3, an entrance management process is performed with the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21. For example, the CPU 31 reads the entrance ticket gate ID (information obtained by coding the station name and the number of the entrance ticket gate) which is the identification information of the entrance management device 1 from the storage unit 36, and reads the current time counted by the built-in timer. At the same time, the information is transmitted to the mobile phone 21 as entry information and stored. Also, CP
The U31 performs a charging process for the controller 81 to reduce the amount corresponding to the entrance fee from the prepaid amount information.

After ending the entrance management processing with the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 in step S3, the CPU 31 proceeds to step S4 to notify the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 of the power supply state of the communication unit 21A. Request.

In response to this request, the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 notifies the power supply state. In step S5, the CPU 31 determines whether the power of the communication unit 21A is on based on the notification.

If it is determined in step S5 that the power of the communication section 21A is off, the CPU 31 returns to step S1 and repeatedly executes the subsequent processing.

The CPU 31 determines in step S5
When it is determined that the power of the communication unit 21A is on,
Proceeding to step S6, the controller 8 of the mobile phone 21
1 requests that the power be turned off. As will be described later with reference to FIG. 7, in step S16, the power of the communication unit 21A is turned off in response to this instruction, and communication on a train or the like is restricted.

After that, the process returns to step S1, and the subsequent processes are repeatedly executed.

Next, referring to the flowchart of FIG.
A basic entrance process of the mobile phone 21 will be described.

As described above, in order for the user to enter the station yard from the entrance ticket gate, the portable telephone 21 is moved to the entrance management device 1.
When the electromagnetic wave that is constantly transmitted from the short-range communication unit 11 is received from the short-range communication unit 11 due to the proximity to the short-range communication unit 11, the controller 81 responds thereto. At this time, this process is started.

At step S11, the mobile phone 21
The controller 81 waits until the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 requests to store the power state of the communication unit 21A.

The controller 81 controls the CP of the entrance management apparatus 1.
When there is a request from U31, step S
At 12, the power supply control section 21C reads the power supply state to the communication section 21A, and stores it in the storage section 81A. By this processing, the current power supply state is stored as the ON state or the OFF state at the address of the storage unit 81A corresponding to the “power supply state” described with reference to FIG.

In step S13, the controller 8
1 performs an entrance management process with the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1. That is, as described above, the controller 81 causes the storage unit 81A to store the entry information (the information in which the entered station name, the ticket gate ID, the entry date and time, and the like are transmitted) transmitted from the entrance management device 1. Further, the controller 81 reduces the requested entrance fee from the prepaid amount information stored in the storage unit 81A.

In step S14, the controller 8
In response to a request from the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 (the request in step S4 in FIG. 6), the CPU 1 notifies the CPU 31 of the power supply state of the communication unit 21A stored in the processing in step S12.
As described above, in step S5, the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 determines whether or not the power of the communication unit 21A needs to be turned off based on this notification.

In step S15, the controller 8
1 determines whether or not the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 has requested that the power of the communication unit 21A be turned off. If it is determined that the request has not been made, the process ends.

On the other hand, the controller 81 determines in step S1
If it is determined in step 5 that the entrance management apparatus 1 has requested that the power be turned off, the process proceeds to step S16, where the power control unit 21C is controlled to turn off the power supplied to the communication unit 21A. Thereby, the mobile phone 21
Users will not be able to talk until they leave the station and go outside. Thereafter, the processing is terminated.

Next, referring to the flowchart of FIG.
A basic entry management process of the entry management device 2 executed when the user exits the entry ticket gate will be described.

At step S31, the entry control device 2
CPU 31 determines whether or not the mobile phone 21 exists within the communicable range. That is, similarly to the case of the entrance management apparatus 1, the CPU 31
An electromagnetic wave for detecting the mobile phone 21 is transmitted, and the process waits until it is determined that the mobile phone 21 exists within the communicable range.

When the user brings the mobile phone 21 close to the short-range communication section 11, the controller 8 of the mobile phone 21
The CPU 31 determines that the mobile phone 21 exists within the communicable range based on the response from Step 1
Proceed to processing.

In step S32, the CPU 31 executes the participation management process with the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21. For example, the CPU 31 stores the storage unit 81A of the mobile phone 21.
Calculates the fare from the entry information (entrance station) stored in the server and performs a charging process.

In step S33, the CPU 31 requests the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 to read the power supply status of the communication unit 21A at the time of entry and at the present time.

In step S34, the CPU 31 makes a determination based on a notification from the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21.
The power state of the communication unit 21A at the time of entrance is an ON state,
In addition, it is determined whether or not the current state is the off state. CPU3
1 is a communication unit 21A upon entry based on this determination.
The power supply status is restored. That is, CPU3
When it is determined that the power state of the communication unit 21A at the time of entry is in the ON state and is currently in the OFF state, the process proceeds to step S35, and the power supply that has been turned OFF by the entrance management device 1 is turned ON. It requests the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 to be in the state. In response to this request, the power supply of the communication unit 21A of the mobile phone 21 is turned on and returned to the power supply at the time of entry. Thereafter, the process returns to step S31, and the subsequent processes are repeatedly executed. As described above, when the power of the communication unit 21A is turned off by an instruction from the entrance management device 1, the power is turned on by this processing.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S34 that the power of the communication unit 21A at the time of entry is in the off state or that it is already in the on state, the CPU 3
No. 1 does not execute the process of step S35, but executes step S31.
And the subsequent processing is repeatedly executed.

As described above, when the power is off at the time of entrance, or the power is turned off according to an instruction from the entrance management apparatus 1, the user manually turns on the power of the communication unit 21A by manual operation. In this case, the request to turn on the power is not output from the participation management device 2.

Next, referring to the flowchart of FIG.
A basic entry process of the mobile phone 21 will be described.
When the user brings the mobile phone 21 close to the entry management device 2 to enter from the entry ticket gate, the electromagnetic wave is received by the coil 85A, and the controller 81 responds thereto. At this time, this process is started.

In step S41, the controller 8
1 executes entry management processing with the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2. That is, as described above, the controller 81
Reads out the entry information (entrance station information) stored in the storage unit 81A when the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 requests notification of the entry information stored at the entrance ticket gate. The CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 executes a charging process based on the notified entry information, and requests a reduction from the prepaid amount information by the amount corresponding to the fare. Therefore, the controller 81 executes a reduction process in response to the request.

After the entry management processing, the controller 81
In step S42, when the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 requests to read the power state of the communication unit 21A at the time of entry and the current state (the request of step S33 in FIG. 8), the information is stored accordingly in the storage unit 81A. And power supply control unit 21C
And notify.

In step S43, the controller 8
1 determines whether or not the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 has requested that the power be turned on. If it is determined that the request has not been made, the process ends.

On the other hand, if the controller 81 determines in step S43 that the CPU 31 of the entry management device 1 has requested that the power be turned on, the controller 81 proceeds to step S43.
Proceed to S44 to control the power control unit 21C, and
Power on. Thereafter, the processing is terminated.

According to the above-described processing, the user can use the train without purchasing a ticket or the like. Further, since the use of the mobile phone 21 is restricted, the influence (inconvenience) on other users due to the call on the station premises or on the train is suppressed.

Next, a description will be given of a case where the basic entrance management processing and the entrance management processing described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS.

First, the entrance management processing of the entrance management device 1 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
That is, the processing in the flowchart in FIG. 10 corresponds to the processing in the flowchart in FIG.

When a plurality of users pass continuously, the entrance management device 1 allows the user to pass through the door 12 in an open state without opening and closing each time.
Control is performed so that the door 12 is closed when the user does not pass. Naturally, in the case where a plurality of users continue to pass, if a problematic user is recognized, the entrance management apparatus 1
Closes the door 12. The entry management device 2 also controls the door 12 at the same timing.

In step S51, the entrance management device 1
CPU 31 determines whether or not the mobile phone 21 exists within the communicable range. That is, as described above, the electromagnetic wave for detecting the mobile phone 21 is constantly transmitted from the short-distance communication unit 11 of the entrance management device 1 and waits until the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 responds thereto. I do.

The user connects the mobile phone 21 to the short-range communication section 1
1, the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21
Responds to the detection signal. When receiving the response from the mobile phone 21, the CPU 31 determines that the mobile phone 21 exists within the traversable range, and determines in step S52.
To the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 to request that the current power supply state of the communication unit 21A be stored. Then, in the processing after step S53, the entrance management processing is started.

In step S53, the CPU 31 requests the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 to notify the mobile phone of the mobile ID and the amount information stored (purchased) by the user in the mobile phone 21 in advance.

At step S 54, the CPU 31 determines from the notified mobile ID and the amount information that the user of the mobile phone 21 uses the route managed by the entrance management apparatus 1 for entry using the mobile phone 21. It is determined whether a contract has been made and whether or not there is predetermined amount information (amount information for the entrance fee).

In step S54, the CPU 31 determines from the notified mobile ID that, for example, the user of the mobile phone 21 has not made a contract for using the route for which the entrance management device 1 manages the entrance. In this case, or when it is determined from the notified amount information that, for example, the amount information equal to or more than the entrance fee is not stored in the mobile phone 21, the process proceeds to step S55.

In step S55, the CPU 31 controls the door drive unit 39 to put the door 12 in the closed state, and causes the display unit 35 to display a message to the user of the mobile phone 21 that the vehicle cannot pass.

FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of a message displayed on the display unit 35 in this manner. In this example, in the determination process of step S54, the CPU 31 determines that the user of the mobile phone 21 has not made a contract for using the route for which the entrance management device 1 manages traffic. The message "You cannot use the ticket because you have not signed up. Please purchase a ticket or use it after signing up" is displayed.

Thereafter, for example, the user purchases a ticket to the destination with a vending machine, and then enters from an automatic ticket gate installed at another entrance ticket gate. In addition, the entry management device 1 performs a procedure such as purchasing information on a route for which traffic is managed from a predetermined center as described above, and enters from an entrance ticket gate where the entry management device 1 is installed.

FIG. 12 is a diagram showing another example of a message displayed on the display unit 35. In the example shown in FIG. In this example, the CPU 31 determines that the mobile phone 21 does not store the amount information equal to or more than the admission fee in step S54. No "message is displayed.

Thereafter, the user purchases a ticket to the destination using a vending machine, and then enters from an automatic ticket gate installed at another entrance ticket gate, or purchases additional money information. Then, after entering a procedure such as increasing the balance of the money amount information stored in the mobile phone 21, the user enters.

After the message is displayed in step S55, the process returns to step S51, and the subsequent processes are repeatedly executed.

On the other hand, in step S54, the CPU 31
Is based on the notified mobile ID and the amount information, the user of the mobile phone 21 has made a contract to use the line for which the entrance management device 1 manages the traffic, and the mobile phone 21 Is stored, the process proceeds to step S56.

In step S56, the CPU 31 charges an entrance fee. That is, the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 is requested to reduce the amount information stored in the storage unit 81A by the entrance fee. In addition, in step S56, the CPU 31
The current time read from (Real Time Clock) is used as the entrance date and time, and the entrance information is generated using the device ID which is the identification information of the entrance management device 1 stored in the RAM 33 as the entrance ticket gate ID. It notifies the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 and requests storage.

The controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 executes the respective processes in response to the request, and enters the information that the amount information has been reduced by the entrance fee and that the entry information has been stored in the storage unit 81A. A notification is sent to the management device 1 (notification processing in step S76 in FIG. 14 described later).

In step S57, the CPU 31 determines whether or not the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 has notified that the entry information transmitted in the processing in step S55 has been stored.

In step S57, if the CPU 31 determines that the entry of the entry information has not been notified from the mobile phone 21, the process proceeds to step S58, and based on the notification from the pedestrian detection unit 37, the user Is determined in the vicinity of the entrance management apparatus 1.

In step S58, if the CPU 31 determines that there is no user based on the notification from the passerby detecting section 37, the CPU 31 returns to step S51 and repeats the subsequent processing. For example, when the user moves the mobile phone 21 close to the short-distance communication unit 11 to pass through the entrance ticket gate, but returns without passing, such processing is executed.

On the other hand, in step S58, the CPU 31
Proceeds to step S59 when it is determined that there is a user based on the notification from the passerby detecting section 37, and controls the door driving section 39 when the door 12 is open. The door 12 is closed, and the display unit 3
5 displays a message for the user.

FIG. 13 is a diagram showing an example of a message displayed on the display unit 35 in step S59. In this example, the message "Communication error occurred Please go to the ticket gate with station staff" is displayed. After confirming this message, the user moves to the ticket gate where the station staff is present, and stores the entry information in the storage unit 8 of the mobile phone 21.
Have 1A input. Further, a message may be displayed to the user requesting that the mobile phone 21 be brought closer to the short-range communication unit 11 again.

Thus, it is possible to prevent a user who does not store the entry information in the mobile phone 21 from entering the station premises. Thereafter, the process returns to step S51, and the subsequent processes are repeatedly executed.

On the other hand, in step S57, the CPU 31
If the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 determines that the amount information has been reduced and that the entry information has been stored, the process proceeds to step S60.

In step S60, the CPU 31 sets the mobile ID notified from the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21,
And the date and time of admission are stored in the storage unit 36. As a result, the fact that the user of the mobile phone 21 has passed through the entrance ticket gate is stored, and is used as data for performing statistical processing later. In addition, the information such as the mobile ID and the entrance date and time notified from the mobile phone 21 are transmitted at predetermined time intervals or each time notified from the mobile phone 21 via the communication unit 40.
It may be transmitted to the management center 50.

At step S61, the CPU 31 sets the door 1
When the door 2 is in the closed state, the door driving unit 39 is controlled so that the user of the
Open. When the door 12 is in the open state, the CPU 31 maintains the state for a predetermined time.

At step S62, the CPU 31 instructs the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 to call the communication section 21A.
Request to be notified of the state of the power supply.

The controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 reads out the power supply state and notifies it in response to this request. CP
U31 determines whether or not the power of the communication unit 21A is on based on the notification from the controller 81 in step S63.

If the CPU 31 determines in step S63 that the power of the communication section 21A is on, the process proceeds to step S64, in which the controller 81 of the mobile telephone 21 is controlled.
Transmits a control signal, and requests that the power of the communication unit 21A be turned off. After that, the process
Returning to S51, the subsequent processing is repeatedly executed.

On the other hand, in step S63, the CPU 31
When it is determined that the power of the communication unit 21A is in the off state, it recognizes that there is no need to transmit a control signal requesting the off state, returns to step S51, and repeatedly executes the subsequent processing. .

Next, the entry processing of the mobile phone 21 will be described in detail with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The processing of the flowchart of FIG. 14 corresponds to the processing of the flowchart of FIG. In order for the user to enter the station yard from the entrance ticket gate, the mobile phone 21 is used to enter the entrance management device 1.
When the electromagnetic wave being transmitted from the short-range communication unit 11 is constantly received from the short-range communication unit 11 due to the proximity to the short-range communication unit 11, the controller 81 responds thereto. This starts this processing.

In step S71, the controller 8
1 determines whether or not the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 has requested that the power supply state of the communication unit 21A be stored, and waits for the request. When the controller 81 is requested to store the state of the power supply, in step S72, the controller 81 checks the power supply state of the communication unit 21A by the power supply control unit 21C, and stores the result in the storage unit 81A. Then, after step S73, the entrance management process is started.

At the step S73, the controller 8
1 reads out the mobile ID and the amount information stored in the storage unit 81A and notifies the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 of the information.

In step S74, the controller 8
1 judges whether the entrance fee including the entrance fee, the entrance date and time, and the entrance ticket gate ID has been notified from the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1.

When the controller 81 determines that the entry information or the like has not been notified due to, for example, a communication error, the process ends. The user who intends to pass through the entrance ticket gate is not allowed to enter the station premises by the process of step S59 in FIG. 10, and then acts based on the displayed message.

In step S74, the controller 8
If it is determined that the entrance fee and the entrance information have been notified from the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1, the process proceeds to step S75, and the amount information stored in the storage unit 81A is reduced by the notified entrance fee. Further, the controller 81 causes the storage unit 81A to store the notified entry information.

At step S76, the controller 8
1 notifies the CPU 31 of the entrance management apparatus 1 that the entrance fee has been reduced and that the entrance information has been stored. Upon receiving this notification, the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 allows the user to enter and keeps the door 12 open (step S in FIG. 10).
61 process).

At the step S77, the controller 8
In response to a request from the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 (the request in step S62 in FIG. 10), the control unit 1 reads out the power state of the communication unit 21A (the state stored in the processing in step S72) from the storage unit 81A and notifies I do. CPU 3 of entrance control device 1
1 determines whether it is necessary to turn off the power of the communication unit 21A based on this notification.

In step S78, the controller 81 determines whether or not the CPU 31 of the entrance management apparatus 1 has requested that the power be turned off. If it is determined that the power has been requested (the power of the communication unit 21A is turned on) If so, the process proceeds to step S79 to control the power control unit 21C to turn off the power supplied to the communication unit 21A. In addition, the controller 81 displays a message notifying the user that the power is to be turned off to the display unit 71.
To be displayed.

FIG. 15 is a diagram showing an example of a message displayed on the display unit 71. As shown in FIG. In this example, a message "The power has been turned off because the telephone has entered the restricted section" is displayed. In addition to this message, a warning sound for the user may be generated from a ringtone speaker (not shown).

The power control section 21C turns off the power button PW in response to a command from the controller 81. After the power of the communication unit 21A is turned off, the process ends.

On the other hand, in step S78, the controller 81 sends the communication unit 21A from the CPU 31 of the entrance management apparatus 1.
If it is determined that it is not required to turn off the power of the device, the process ends. In step S78, if the controller 81 determines that it is not requested to turn off the power, the processing is determined to be terminated. A message requesting the user to turn off the power may be displayed on the display unit 71.

FIG. 16 is a diagram showing an example of a message requesting the user to turn off the power.
In this example, a message “entered the call restriction section and turn off the power” is displayed on the display unit 71, and a warning sound is generated from a ringtone speaker (not shown). After confirming the message, the user enters
0 to turn off the power of the mobile phone 21;

Next, a specific entry management process of the entry management device 2 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The processing of the flowchart of FIG. 17 corresponds to the processing of the flowchart shown in FIG.

In step S91, the entry control device 2
CPU 31 determines whether or not the mobile phone 21 exists within the communicable range. That is, the CPU 31 causes the short-range communication unit 11 to transmit an electromagnetic wave for detecting the mobile phone 21 and waits for a response from the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21.

In step S91, if the CPU 31 determines from the response from the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 that the mobile phone 21 exists within the communicable range, the process proceeds to step S92. Execute

In step S92, the CPU 31 requests the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 to notify the entry information and the amount information stored in the storage unit 81A at the entrance ticket gate.

[0204] In step S93, the CPU 31 determines whether or not the entry information and the amount information have been notified from the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 in response to the request.

[0205] For example, if the user returns without passing through the entrance ticket gate even though the user brings the mobile phone 21 close to the short-distance communication unit 11, the entry information and the amount information are notified in step S93. If not, the process returns to step S91, and the subsequent processes are repeatedly executed.

On the other hand, in step S93, the CPU 31
If it is determined that the entry information and the amount information have been notified, the process proceeds to step S94, and calculates the fare based on the notified entry information.

[0207] In step S95, the CPU 31 determines whether charging is possible (reduces the price information of the difference obtained by reducing the already paid entrance fee from the fare from the entrance station to the departure station) from the notified prepaid price information. Is determined), and if it is determined that charging cannot be performed, step S96 is performed.
Proceed to processing.

In step S96, the CPU 31 controls the door drive unit 39 to put the door 12 in the closed state, and displays a message for the user on the display unit 35. FIG. 18 is a diagram illustrating an example of a message displayed on the display unit 35 in the process of step S96. In this example, a message saying "I cannot pass because there is not enough money, please pay me" is displayed. The user who confirms this message moves to, for example, a ticket gate where station staff is present, pays the fare in cash or the like, and leaves the ticket gate. Thereafter, the process returns to step S91, and the subsequent processes are repeatedly executed.

[0209] On the other hand, in step S95, the CPU 31
If it is determined that charging is possible, step S97
And notifies the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 of the price information corresponding to the difference between the above-mentioned fare from the entrance station to the entry station and the entrance fee, and reduces the price information stored in the storage unit 81A, Require rewriting. Also,
The CPU 31 calculates the entry date and time of the entry ticket gate and the entry ticket gate I
The participation information including D is notified and stored in the storage unit 81A.

[0210] In step S98, the CPU 31 determines whether or not the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 has notified that the amount information has been rewritten. If it is determined that the notification has not been made, the process proceeds to step S99.

[0211] In step S99, the CPU 31 determines whether or not a user has been detected based on the notification from the passer-by detecting section 37. For example, if the user does not pass through the entrance ticket gate despite approaching the entrance management device 2, it is determined that the user has not been detected, and step S
Returning to step 91, the subsequent processing is repeatedly executed.

On the other hand, in step S99, the CPU 31
If it is determined that the user has been detected, the process proceeds to step S100 to prevent the user who does not rewrite the price information from the ticket gate despite using the train to control the door drive unit 39. Then, the door 12 is closed. Further, the CPU 31 displays a message for the user on the display unit 3.
5 is displayed.

In step S100, the message displayed on the display unit 35 is, for example, the one shown in FIG.
The message displayed by the entrance management device 1 at 59 is the same as the message shown in FIG. That is, a message such as "A communication error has occurred, please go to the ticket gate where the station staff is located" is displayed.

[0214] The user who confirms this message moves to the ticket gate where the station staff is present, and after having the amount information rewritten, exits from the ticket gate. Thereafter, the process returns to step S91, and the subsequent processes are repeatedly executed.

On the other hand, in step S98, the CPU 31
If it is determined that the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 has notified that the amount information has been rewritten,
Proceeding to S101, the entry information is stored in the storage unit 36. That is, the entry date and time when the user of the mobile phone 21 passed through the entry ticket gate, the notified entry information, the paid fare, and the like are stored in the storage unit 36, and are used for, for example, subsequent statistical processing.

[0216] In step S102, the CPU 31 controls the door drive unit 39 to make the door 12 open, thereby allowing the user to enter the station premises.

In step S103, the CPU 31 requests the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21 to read the power supply state of the communication unit 21A at the time of entry and the current state.

In step S104, the CPU 31 sets the communication unit 2 upon entry based on the notification from the mobile phone 21.
It is determined whether or not the state of the power supply 1A is in the ON state and is currently in the OFF state. If the CPU 31 determines that the power state of the communication unit 21A at the time of entry is in the ON state and is currently in the OFF state, the process proceeds to step S105, in which the power supply turned OFF by the entrance management apparatus 1 is turned ON. Require state. In response to this request, the state of the power of the mobile phone 21 is turned on, and the state of the power at the time of entrance. Thereafter, the process returns to step S91, and the subsequent processes are repeatedly executed.

On the other hand, in step S104, the CPU 31
Returns to step S91 when it is determined that the power supply state of the communication unit 21A at the time of entry is not on or is not off (it is on) at present, and repeats the subsequent processing.

Next, specific entry processing of the mobile phone 21 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The processing in the flowchart in FIG. 19 corresponds to the processing in the flowchart in FIG. When the user brings the mobile phone 21 close to the short-range communication unit 11 of the entry management device 2 so as to enter from the entry ticket gate, the electromagnetic wave is received by the coil 85A, and the controller 81 responds thereto.
At this time, this process is started.

In step S121, the controller 81 determines whether or not notification of the entrance information and the amount information is requested from the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2, and waits until it is determined that the notification is required.

If the controller 81 determines in step S121 that notification of the admission information and the amount information has been requested, the process proceeds to step S122, in which the controller 81 reads the admission information and the amount information stored in the storage unit 81A. , To the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2.

In step S123, the controller 81 notifies the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 of entry information including the entry date and time of the entry ticket gate and the entry ticket ID, and further, a fare from the entry station to the entry station. It is determined whether or not it has been requested to rewrite the difference between the entry fee and the entrance fee with the reduced amount information.

For example, when a communication error or the like occurs and the controller 81 determines that it is not requested to rewrite the amount information, the process ends. Thereafter, the user checks the message displayed in the process of step S100 in FIG. 17, and passes through a ticket gate where station staff is present.

In step S123, when the controller 81 is notified of the entry information from the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 and determines that the rewriting of the amount information has been requested, the controller 81 proceeds to step S124. In step S124, the controller 81 rewrites the money amount information stored in the storage unit 81A to money amount information reduced by the notified difference, and notifies the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 of that fact.

In step S125, the controller 81 causes the storage section 81A to store the participation information notified from the participation management device 2. Thereafter, the user can confirm the stored participation information by displaying it on the display unit 71 or the like.

In step S126, the controller 81 notifies the CPU 31 of the entry management apparatus 2 of the information at the time of entry and in response to a request to read the current power supply state of the communication unit 21A.

In step S127, the controller 81 determines whether or not the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 has requested that the power be turned on. If it is determined that the power has been requested, the process proceeds to step S128, in which the power controller 2
1C to turn on the power of the communication unit 21A.
Further, the controller 81 displays a message on the display unit 71 to notify the user that the power has been turned on.

FIG. 20 is a diagram showing an example of a message displayed in the process of step S128. In this example, "I'm out of the restricted section and turn on the power."
Message is displayed. By displaying this message, the user can confirm that the call is possible.

Thereafter, the processing is terminated and the portable telephone 21
The user can get out of the ticket gate and make a call using the mobile phone 21 in the same manner as before entering the station.

On the other hand, in step S127, when the controller 81 determines that the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 has not requested that the power be turned on,
The process ends.

In the above, the CPU 3 of the entry management device 2
In the first embodiment, charging is performed based on the entry information (entrance station information) notified from the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21. However, the management center 50 may be accessed and a charging process may be requested to the management center 50.

In this case, the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1
Mobile phone notified from controller 81 of mobile phone 21
The communication unit 40 associates the ID with the admission information to the management center 5
0 and stored. When the user enters from the station premises, the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 accesses the management center 50, notifies the mobile ID notified from the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21, and requests charging. That is,
When the price information is issued to the user, the issued amount information and the mobile ID are stored in the management server 50 in association with each other. The management server 50 calculates the fare from the entrance information notified from the entrance management device 1 and the entry information notified from the entrance management device 2, and calculates the amount information of the fare from the stored amount information. The accounting process is executed by rewriting with a reduced amount.

The management server 50 notifies the entry management apparatus 1 or the entry management apparatus 2 of the result of whether or not the charging process was successful. The entrance management device 1 or the entry management device 2 controls the traffic of the user based on the notification.

This eliminates the need to notify the mobile phone 21 of the entry information and store it in the storage section 81A. The mobile phone 21 can execute the above-described processing only by storing only the mobile ID and notifying the entry management device 1 and the entry management device 2.

In the above description, the entry management process and the entry management process can be performed even when the power of the communication section 21A of the mobile phone 21 is off. However, only when the mobile phone is on, A description will be given of a process in a case where the process can be executed. A mobile phone capable of executing the processing is referred to as a mobile phone 21-2).

FIG. 21 is a block diagram showing an example of the internal configuration of the mobile phone 21-2. The mobile phone 21-2 is
It has basically the same configuration as the mobile phone 21-1 described with reference to FIG.

However, the controller 81 of the portable telephone 21-2 is not provided with the storage section 81A as shown in FIG. 4, and for example, the entry information transmitted from the entry management device 1 After being received by the coil 85A of the unit 21B and demodulated by the demodulation unit 83, it is supplied from the controller 81 to the main control unit 61 of the communication unit 21A and stored.

[0239] A series of processes executed when the user of the mobile phone 21-2 passes will be described with reference to the flowcharts of Figs. First, FIG.
The entrance management process of the entrance management device 1 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

In step S141, the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 sets the portable telephone 21-2 within the communicable range.
It is determined whether or not exists. That is, the CPU 31
Transmits the electromagnetic wave for detection constantly as described above, and based on the response from the mobile phone 21-2, the mobile phone 21-
2 waits until it is determined that it is within the communicable range.

In step S141, if the CPU 31 determines that the mobile phone 21-2 exists within the passable range, the process proceeds to step S142, and the CPU 31 proceeds to step S142.
-2 controller 81, the current communication unit 21A
Request to be notified of the state of the power supply. In response to this request, the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21-2, based on the power supplied from the power supply unit 84,
The power supply status to the communication unit 21A of C is checked, and the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 is notified.

At step S143, CPU 31 determines whether or not the power supply of call section 21A is on based on the notification from controller 81 of portable telephone 21-2, and determines that it is not on. If the step
Proceeding to S144, a request is made to turn on the power. In response to this request, the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21-2 controls the power control unit 21C to turn on the power in the communication unit 21A.

On the other hand, in step S143, the CPU 31
When it is determined that the power supply of the communication unit 21A is in the on state, it is determined that there is no need to issue an instruction to turn on the power, and the process of step S144 is skipped and step S1 is performed.
Proceed to 45.

In step S145, the CPU 31 makes the mobile phone 21-2 start communication with the entrance management device 1 (when the user approaches the entrance ticket gate).
Request to store the state of the 1A power supply. That is, when the power of the mobile phone 21-2 is turned on by executing the processing of step S144, the CPU 31 requests that the power state be stored as off, and the step S1 be executed.
If the process in step 44 is skipped, a request is made to store the power supply state as ON. When receiving this request via the controller 81, the main control unit 61
Then, the state of the power supply based on the request is stored.

In step S146, the CPU 31 executes an entrance management process via the main controller 61 and the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21-2. The entrance management process is the same as steps S53 to S61 in FIG. 10, and detailed description thereof is omitted. For example, the CPU 31 notifies the main control unit 61 of the mobile phone 21-2 of the entrance information. Are stored in the storage unit 63. After the entrance management processing ends, the processing proceeds to step S147.

At step S147, CPU 31 requests controller 81 of portable telephone 21-2 to turn off the power. Thereafter, the process returns to step S141, and the subsequent processes are repeatedly executed.

Next, the entry processing of the mobile phone 21-2 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
In order for the user to pass through the entrance ticket gate, the mobile phone 21-2
Is brought closer to the short-range communication section 11 of the entrance management apparatus 1, and when the electromagnetic wave for detection is received, the controller 81 responds thereto. At this time, this process is started.

In step S161, the controller 81 determines whether or not the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 has requested notification of the power supply state of the communication unit 21A.
If it is determined that notification of the power supply state has been requested, the process proceeds to step S162.

[0249] In step S162, the controller 81 checks the state of the power supply of the communication section 21A and notifies the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 of the state. As described above, the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 determines whether or not to instruct the controller 81 to turn on the power based on the notification.

In step S163, the controller 81 determines whether or not the CPU 31 of the entrance management apparatus 1 has requested that the power be turned on. If it is determined that the power has been instructed, the process proceeds to step S164, where the power controller 2
1C to turn on the power of the communication unit 21A. As a result, it becomes possible to execute the entrance management process with the entrance management device 1. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S165.

On the other hand, in step S163, when the controller 81 determines that the CPU 31 of the entrance management apparatus 1 has not instructed to turn on the power,
The process of step S164 is skipped, and step S165
Proceed to.

In the step S165, the main control unit 61
Causes the storage unit 63 to store the state of the power supply of the communication unit 21A when the processing in FIG. 23 is started in response to a request from the CPU 31 of the entrance management apparatus 1 (the request in step S145 in FIG. 22).

In the step S166, the main control unit 61
Is the CPU of the entrance management device 1 via the controller 81
31 and an entrance management process. The entrance management process is the same as steps S73 to S76 in FIG. 14, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted. For example, the main control unit 61
Executes a process such as storing the entry information notified from the CPU 31 of the entrance management device 1 in the storage unit 63, and when the entrance management process ends, proceeds to step S167.

In step S167, the controller 81 transmits an instruction from the CPU 31 of the entrance management apparatus 1 (FIG. 22).
In step S147), the power control unit 21C is controlled to turn off the power of the communication unit 21A. Thereafter, the process is terminated, and the user cannot use the mobile phone 21-2 to make a call.

Next, the entry management processing of the entry management device 2 executed when the user exits the entry ticket gate will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

In step S181, the CPU 31 of the entry control device 2 transmits an electromagnetic wave for detection of the mobile phone 21-2, and determines whether or not the mobile phone 21-2 exists within the communicable range. It waits until it is determined that the mobile phone 21-2 exists.

When a response is received from the controller 81 of the mobile phone 21-2, the CPU 31 determines that the mobile phone 21-2 exists within the communicable range, and proceeds to step S.
Proceed to 182.

In step S182, the CPU 31 requests the controller 81 of the portable telephone 21-2 to notify the current power state of the communication unit 21A, and based on the notification, in step S183, the communication unit 21A. If it is determined that the power of the is not on (is off),
Proceeding to step S184, a request is made to turn on the power of the communication unit 21A.

On the other hand, in step S183, if the user manually turns on the power of the communication unit 21A despite the fact that the power of the communication unit 21A has been turned off by the CPU 31 of the entrance management apparatus 1, the CPU 31 turns off the power. Since it is determined that there is no need to give an instruction to turn on, the process of step S184 is skipped, and the process proceeds to step S185.

At step S185, CPU 31 executes entry control processing with main controller 61 of mobile phone 21-2. The participation management process is the same process as steps S92 to S102 in FIG. 17 as described above. For example, CP
The U31 requests the main control unit 61 of the mobile phone 21-2 to read the entry information stored in the storage unit 63, and executes a charging process and the like based on the notification. When the participation management process ends, the process proceeds to step S186.

In step S186, the CPU 31 requests the main control unit 61 of the mobile phone 21-2 to read the power supply state of the communication unit 21A at the time of entry and to transmit the current state. Caller 21 notified in response to this request
Based on the power state of A, the CPU 31 executes a process of returning to the power state of the communication unit 21A at the time of entry.

That is, in step S187, the CPU
31 determines whether or not the power state of the communication unit 21A at the time of entry is on, based on a notification from the main control unit 61 of the mobile phone 21-2, and the power of the communication unit 21A at the time of entry is
If it is determined that the power is off, the process proceeds to step S188, and a request is made to turn off the power. Thereafter, the process returns to step S181, and the subsequent processes are repeatedly executed.

On the other hand, if the CPU 31 determines in step S187 that the power supply at the time of entry is in the ON state, the process of step S188 is skipped, and the processing of step S1 is skipped.
Returning to 81, the subsequent processing is repeatedly executed (the current power supply state (on state) of the mobile phone 21-2 is maintained as it is).

Next, the entry process of the mobile phone 21-2 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

In step S201, the controller 81 uses the electromagnetic wave transmitted from the participation management device 2 to
It is determined whether or not notification of the power supply state of the communication unit 21A is requested, and the process waits until it is determined that the notification is requested.

If the controller 81 determines that the notification of the power supply state has been requested, the process proceeds to step S202.
To check the state of the power supply of the communication unit 21A in response to the request, and notify it.

In step S203, the controller 81 determines whether or not the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 has requested that the power be turned on. 2
1C is controlled to turn on the power. Thereby, the main control unit 61 can perform the entry management process with the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 in step S205.

On the other hand, the controller 81 determines in step S2
If it is determined in step 03 that it is not requested to turn on the power, the process of step S204 is skipped, and the process proceeds to step S205.

In step S205, the main control unit 61
Executes entry management processing with the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2. The processing to be executed is described in steps S122 to S122 in FIG.
This is a process similar to the process of 126. For example, the main control unit 6
1 is in response to a request from the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2,
A process of rewriting the price information stored in the storage unit 63 to the price information reduced by the ride fare is executed.

At step S206, the main control unit 61
Reads the power state of the communication unit 21A at the time of entry stored in the storage unit 63 in response to a request from the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 (step S186 in FIG. 24).
Send to As described above, based on this read result, the CPU 31 requests power-off as needed.

Therefore, in step S207, the controller 81 determines whether or not the CPU 31 of the entry management device 2 has requested that the power be turned off, and determines that the power has been requested to be turned off. In this case, the process proceeds to step S208 to control the power control unit 21C to turn off the power of the communication unit 21A. Thereafter, the processing is terminated.

On the other hand, in step S207, when the controller 81 determines that the CPU 31 of the entry management device 1 has not requested that the power be turned off,
The process ends.

According to the above-described processing, the user can use the train without purchasing a ticket or the like. Further, since the use of the mobile phone 21 is restricted, the influence (inconvenience) on other users due to the call on the train is suppressed.

In the above, the power is turned off by the entrance management device 1 installed at the entrance ticket gate, and the main control unit 6
Although the operation of each unit including 1 is terminated, for example, only the communication mode of various modes such as the communication mode and the communication mode may not be activated.

That is, when the user passes through the entrance ticket gate, a signal prohibiting the activation of the call mode is transmitted from the entrance management device 1, and when the signal is received, the main control unit 61 determines that the user Even if you try to start it manually,
Prohibit call mode activation. Further, when the user attempts to activate the call mode by a manual operation, a message indicating that activation cannot be performed may be displayed on the display unit 71.

Thereafter, when the user exits the ticket gate, the main control unit 61 receives a signal for canceling the prohibition of the call mode from the entry management device 2, and sets a state in which a call is possible.

When mobile phone 21 receives a radio wave from another phone, it may be controlled whether or not a ringing tone sounds (so-called silent mode).

In the above, the case of passing through a ticket gate of a station has been described.
The present invention can be applied to hospitals, airplanes, rooms, and buildings.

[0279] When the user passes through the ticket gate at the station, the user purchases predetermined amount information in advance (prepaid method). For example, the user purchases information as a commuter pass and stores it in the mobile phone 21. You can also put it. In this case, the participation management device 2 controls the traffic of the user by determining whether or not the period of the commuter pass stored in the mobile phone 21 is valid. Alternatively, information as a coupon may be stored, and the number of times of use may be decremented by one each time a user passes.

Further, when the time during which the use of the mobile phone 21 needs to be restricted (movie screening time, airplane flight time), such as in a movie theater or airplane, is predetermined, the mobile phone 21 turns off the power. The power of the mobile phone 21 is set so that the power is automatically turned on after a predetermined time (after the lapse of the movie screening time or the lapse of the flight time of the airplane) from the reception of the signal for setting the state. May be controlled.

Although the user can manually turn on the power even if the power is turned off from the entrance management apparatus 1, the entry management apparatus 2 instructs the user to turn on the power. Until the power is turned on, the power may not be turned on by manual operation.

[0282]

According to the entrance management apparatus of the present invention, after communicating with the portable communication terminal of the user and performing the entrance management processing when the user enters the area, the original communication of the portable communication terminal is performed. Since the function is restricted, the user cannot make a call with the mobile communication terminal in the predetermined restricted area, and the discomfort to other users is suppressed. In addition, since a billing process is also performed in the passage procedure, the user can save the trouble of purchasing a ticket or the like.

According to the entry management device of the present invention, after communicating with the portable communication terminal possessed by the user and performing the entry management process when the user enters the area, the original entry management process restricted by the entry management process is performed. Since the communication function is restored, it is possible to prevent the user from forgetting to manually turn on the power when coming out of the place where the call on the mobile communication terminal is restricted.

[0284] According to the portable communication terminal and the portable telephone of the present invention, communication is performed with the entrance management device and the entry management device, and the management process when the user enters the area is executed. In addition, since the original communication function is controlled based on the control signal transmitted from the entrance management device,
The user can prevent inconvenience to a third party. In addition, entry procedures can be performed without purchasing a ticket or the like.
