In the present embodiment, by appropriately operating the moving object monitoring apparatus 101, an unspecified moving object existing in the monitoring area 110, which is an object of the present invention, is automatically detected, and the moving object is detected. It realizes sending a predetermined message to the body. Hereinafter, this operation will be described with reference to FIG.

(Step 201) The manager of the monitoring area 110 is a terminal that does not need to be detected even if it exists in the monitoring area 110 or a person who does not need to send a message (that is, the manager or the staff of the area 110). Is registered in the terminal information database 106 using the input device 121. The content to be registered may be a terminal number which is identification information for identifying a terminal. Here, an example of the format of the terminal information database 106 is shown in FIG.
Shown in In the example of FIG. 3, items Nos. 1 to 4 are information of the terminal owned by the staff. A telephone number is registered in the “terminal number” column, and “notification unnecessary” is registered in the “attribute” column indicating whether notification is necessary or unnecessary. Nothing is registered in the “paging area number” column and the “number of notifications” column.

(Step 202) The manager stores a message to be notified to an unspecified moving object existing in the monitoring area 110 in the notification message database 107 using the input device 121. For example, if the monitoring area 110 is a dangerous area, the message may be a message urging the person to leave the area 110. Monitoring area 1
If 10 is a sightseeing area, it is a message or the like for providing sightseeing guidance near the area 110.

(Step 203) Unspecified moving object 114
Has entered the monitoring area 110. At this time, it is assumed that the mobile unit 114 owns the PHS terminal 115. At present, this assumption is realistic because portable telephone terminals such as PHS are widely spread, and the diffusion rate is expected to further increase in the future. At this time, the location of the terminal 115 is registered in the public network 111 by the private exchange system 116 as in the roaming location registration process.
15 existing paging area identification numbers are exchange 109
Is stored within.

(Step 204) Terminal detection registration means 10
2 makes an inquiry about the newly stored terminal to the private exchange 109 at predetermined intervals, and
If a new terminal is stored in the terminal information, the terminal information is registered in the terminal information database 106. In the example of FIG. 3, items of item numbers 5 to 10 are information of newly registered terminals. In the "terminal number" field, enter the phone number of the new terminal,
The "Paging area number" field shows the paging area identification number where the new terminal is located, and the "Attribute" field shows "Notification required".
, And 0 in the “number of notifications” column. here,
In step 203, the new terminal 115 is connected to the private branch exchange 1
09, the information is registered in the database 106 (item number 5 in FIG. 3).

(Step 205) The notifying means 103 transmits the terminal information database 106 at a predetermined timing.
"Paging area number" is the paging area 1
13 is searched for a terminal whose identification number is “attribute required” for “attribute”. And from among the target terminals,
The message is notified to the terminal by telephone or e-mail based on the "terminal number" (telephone number) of the terminal in ascending order of "notification count". here,
The notified message is a predetermined message stored in the notification message database 107 or a message directly spoken by the administrator through the input device 121.

(Step 206) Unspecified moving object 114
Receives the above message via the terminal 115.

(Step 207) After notifying the predetermined terminal, the notifying means 103 outputs
, Whether the notification has reached the terminal 115 normally is confirmed. If it has arrived normally, the process proceeds to step 208; otherwise, the process proceeds to step 210.

(Step 208) If the notification has arrived normally in Step 207, the recording means 105
After the notifying unit 103 notifies a predetermined terminal, the message content of the "terminal number" of the terminal and the time of the notification are stored in a notification record database 108.
To be stored.

(Step 209) Registered content changing means 10
No. 4, after the notification means 103 notifies a predetermined terminal, adds one to the number of times of notification of the notified terminal in the terminal information database 106. At this time,
If the “number of notifications” exceeds the predetermined upper limit, the “attribute” of the terminal is set to “notification unnecessary”.

(Step 210) If the notification has not arrived normally in Step 207, the terminal detection and registration means 102 deletes the information of the terminal 115 from the terminal information database 106.

As described above, the mobile unit monitoring apparatus 101
Operates properly and is the object of the present invention, the monitoring area 1
Automatically detects unspecified moving objects present in 10,
Notification of a predetermined message to the moving object is realized. That is, by detecting the PHS terminal owned by the moving object in step 204, the moving object that has entered the monitoring area can be automatically detected. Also, by notifying the PHS terminal owned by the mobile unit in step 205,
A predetermined message can be reliably notified to the moving object. Further, since the content, time, notification destination terminal information, and the like of the notification are recorded in step 208, evidence of the notification can be reliably left.
(For example, if the surveillance area is a danger zone and a third party accidentally enters the area and is injured, if there is evidence that a departure notice has been issued, the area manager will not be held responsible. Help me). In addition, since the upper limit is set for the number of notifications in step 209, unnecessary communication traffic does not need to be increased. Further, in step 201, the terminal 110 is registered so as not to notify the terminal owned by the manager or the staff of the area 110, so that the notification is performed only to the terminal of the unspecified third party intruder.

Next, an application example of the mobile monitoring apparatus of the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 4 shows a first application example. At the tourist spot 401, the mobile monitoring apparatus 101 of the present invention is installed, and various message notification services are provided to tourists. In the tourist spot 401, there are a river 403 and a tourist spot 404. Along the river 403, the base station 1-j (j
= 5-7) are installed, and their wireless zone 2-j
(J = 5 to 7) covers the riverbed of the river 403. A base station 1-8 is installed near the tourist spot 404, and its wireless zone 2-8 is located in the tourist spot 40.
It covers the whole area around 4. The private exchange 109
The base stations 1-j and 1-8 are managed by setting the whole union of the wireless zones 2-j as one paging area A and the paging area 2-8 as another paging area B, and perform location registration, outgoing / incoming calls, etc. Offers roaming services.

The mobile monitoring apparatus 101 monitors the mobile using the paging areas A and B as monitoring areas. The management office 402 lends the terminal 115 to tourists 114 who do not have a PHS terminal. Therefore, the device 101 can detect all the tourists existing in the areas A and B. If river 4
If the basin becomes dangerous due to increased water in
01 notifies an evacuation recommendation message to a tourist existing in the area A via the PHS terminal. If there are tourists who do not evacuate even if they are notified more than a predetermined number of times, there is a possibility that they cannot be evacuated due to injury or the like. When an urgent situation is required, a cooperation request message may be notified to the terminal of another tourist existing in the area A. In the area B, a tourist guide message of the tourist spot 404 is notified to the tourist via the PHS terminal at the same time when the tourist enters the area. With these services, effective tourist information and evacuation guidance at the time of disaster can be achieved at the tourist spot 401.

Next, a second applied example of the mobile monitoring apparatus of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In the concert hall 501, the moving object monitoring apparatus 101 of the present invention is installed, and a concert with little disturbance that does not require listening to the ringtone of the PHS terminal during the concert is realized. Lobby 5
A base station 1-9 is installed at 03, and its wireless zone 2-9 covers the whole area near the entrance of the audience of the hall 502 where the concert is performed. The private exchange 109
The base station 1-9 is managed with the wireless zone 2-9 as one paging area C, and a roaming service such as location registration and outgoing / incoming is provided.

The mobile monitoring apparatus 101 monitors the mobile using the paging area C as a monitoring area. If the spectator 114 who owns the PHS terminal 115 enters the area C, the device 101 detects this and notifies the spectator 114 of a message to turn off the ringtone of the terminal. A spectator with a ringing terminal can notice that his or her terminal is not in manner mode and switch to manner mode on the spot. Note that a terminal that has once sent a message is registered as a "notification unnecessary" terminal so that the message is not notified more than once.
As a result, it is not necessary to notify the mode switching request message to the audience who has already switched the terminal to the manner mode many times. With this service, the concert hall 501 can provide a clear concert with little disturbance.

In this embodiment, the self-exchange system and the mobile unit monitoring device have been described as separate units, but both of them constitute one mobile unit monitoring system, and the concept of the present invention is considered. Within the range not deviating from
It goes without saying that various changes can be made in the configuration, function, and combination of these components. In addition, although the description has been given with specific processing flows and application examples, application of the present invention is not limited to these.

To step 813 if not reached.

(Step 811) If the notification has arrived normally in step 810, the recording means 606
After the notifying unit 604 notifies a predetermined terminal, the message content notified as the “terminal number” of the terminal and the time of the notification are stored in the notification record database 610.
To be stored.

(Step 812) Registered content changing means 60
5, after the notification unit 604 notifies a predetermined terminal, the terminal information database 106 adds one to the "number of notifications" of the terminal that has notified. At this time,
If the “number of notifications” exceeds the predetermined upper limit, the “attribute” of the terminal is set to “notification unnecessary”.

(Step 813) If the notification has not arrived normally in step 810, the terminal detection and registration means 602 deletes the information of the terminal 621 from the terminal information database 607.

As described above, the moving body monitoring device 601
Operates properly and is the object of the present invention, the monitoring area 6
Automatically detect unspecified moving objects existing in 18,
Notification of a predetermined message to the moving object is realized. That is, by detecting the mobile phone terminal owned by the moving object in step 804, the moving object that has entered the monitoring area can be automatically detected. In step 808, by notifying the mobile phone owned by the mobile unit, a predetermined message can be reliably notified to the mobile unit. Further, since the notified contents, time, notified terminal information, and the like are recorded in step 811, the evidence can be surely left. (For example, if the surveillance area is a danger zone and a third party accidentally enters the area and is injured, if there is evidence that a departure notice has been issued, the area manager will not be held responsible. Help me). Also, the above step 812
Thus, since the upper limit is set for the number of notifications, unnecessary communication traffic does not need to be increased. In addition, since the terminal 801 is registered so as not to notify the terminal owned by the manager or the staff of the area 618, the notification is performed only to the terminal of the intruder of the unspecified third party.

As an application example of the mobile monitoring apparatus of the present embodiment, as in the case of the first embodiment, a sightseeing guide message or an evacuation guidance message at a tourist spot, a manner mode switching request message at a concert hall, etc. It can be used for services. (Description is omitted).

In the present embodiment, the portable telephone system and the mobile object monitoring device have been described as separate objects, but both of them constitute one mobile object monitoring system. It goes without saying that various changes can be made in the configurations, functions, and combinations of these components without departing from the scope of the present invention. In addition, although the description has been given with specific processing flows and application examples, application of the present invention is not limited to these.

[0056]

According to the present invention, a portable telephone terminal which is expected to be widely spread in the future is detected and a message is notified to the telephone terminal. Monitoring and message notification for a moving object can be performed. Further, since the telephone terminal of the mobile body is used as the message notifying means, it is not necessary to prepare a notifying means such as a speaker near the monitoring area.
