2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a mobile terminal such as a laptop personal computer has been used, but a mobile terminal monitoring and control device for preventing theft such as taking away the mobile terminal,
As a mobile terminal monitoring control system and its control method, a wireless terminal system and the like described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-102197 are known. According to the wireless terminal system, when the reception level of the monitoring signal wirelessly output from the main unit changes, the control for changing the loudness of the warning sound according to the changed reception level (small reception level → warning sound) High, high reception level → low warning sound). As a result, a warning is given to those who have the mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal is prevented from being left behind.

Although not related to the problem to be solved by the present invention, as a technique having the same technical idea, unlocking using a mobile terminal described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-3615 is possible. There is an intercom system. In the intercom device, the caller number and position information are registered in advance, and when it is detected that a signal indicating unlocking of the door lock is transmitted from the mobile terminal, the registered caller number and position are registered. It is checked whether or not the information matches, and if they match, the door lock is unlocked and access to the computer terminal is permitted.

In addition to the above, will there be a large number of commercialized systems and control methods for performing various controls based on a signal transmitted wirelessly from a mobile portable terminal to a control device (an intercom in the above example)? Alternatively, it is disclosed as a document.

The conventional laptop-type personal computer product concept was a mobile terminal-like concept, which is not possible with a desktop-type personal computer assuming stationary use.
In recent years, with the advent of mobile phones equipped with e-mail functions, mobile information terminals, and sub-notebook personal computers, the concept of mobile terminals has become a secondary one, and nowadays it is rather highly functional. , The space-saving concept has become more intense.

However, although the use of the notebook type personal computer while moving is no longer considered important, in terms of the use of the device at the destination, differentiation from the desktop type personal computer is still important. Also, although the size of the keyboard surface and the size of the display device tend to be large with emphasis on operability and the user interface surface, from the viewpoint of portability, manufacturers are focusing on reducing the weight and thickness of the device. It is certain that it is doing.

Therefore, even in the category of products such as the above-mentioned notebook type personal computer, like the mobile terminal, the device is prevented from being stolen or lost, and further, the personal information stored in the device due to the theft or loss of the device. Or, it has a technical problem regarding leakage of organizational information.

[0008] In desktop type personal computers, the method of fixing the installation location, for example, the simplest possible method is to use the same idea as a safe to make the weight of the equipment not easy to carry. The theft will be fully resolved.

[0009]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION Problems to be Solved by the Invention
In the wireless terminal system described in Japanese Patent No. 02197, the main unit that outputs a monitoring signal is a P installed in a store.
As you can see from the example of OS,
It is assumed that the installation location is fixed. Further, in the technology described in the publication, it is premised that the terminal device also exists within a specific range from the main body device that outputs the monitoring signal, as can be seen from monitoring the movement in the store. . Therefore, if the purpose of use is generalized, that is, if the purpose is to prevent theft of vague product categories such as "mobile phones" or "information devices", the location of the mobile terminal will not be clearly limited. It becomes a technology that cannot be done.

The same thing can be said for the intercom device which can be unlocked using the mobile terminal described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-3615. In the technology described in the publication, the position information of the mobile terminal and the caller number are used as the authentication conditions for door lock and computer access. However, the technique of this publication limits the control target to those whose doors and other installation locations do not move and desktop computers and other installation locations that do not move or do not normally move. Therefore, as described above, the technique cannot be applied for the purpose of preventing the theft or loss of a mobile terminal such as a notebook computer that can move over a wide range.

The present invention basically solves the above-mentioned problems, but the problem to be solved by the present invention will be supplementarily described from the difference between a mobile phone and a notebook computer.

In the case of a mobile phone, even if there is no consideration for the prevention of theft or loss, since it has a communication function, the act of calling a lost or stolen mobile phone is lost or stolen. It may bring about the effect of reducing various damages caused by. For example, even if the mobile phone is lost, if a kind person picks up the mobile phone, the location of the lost mobile phone can be confirmed by calling the lost mobile phone. Also, even if you make a call, if you do not get a call connection, you will probably not return and you will lose it to the telephone company in order to prevent outside calls that are disadvantageous to the owner. It is also possible to contact them and ask them to dial lock or cancel the contract.

However, for example, a mobile phone or a PH
Information equipment such as a personal computer having a communication function such as a data communication card through an S line generally does not have a call function. Therefore, even if the user can communicate with the personal computer from the mobile phone or the PHS line, if the user of the lost or stolen computer does not notice the communication from the mobile phone or the PHS line, it may be in the immediate vicinity. Even if you do, the only option is to contact the telephone company and let them know that you have lost the dial lock or contract.

Although basically the same as the above, the following can be considered. Since the call function is synchronous, both the sender and the receiver are active only when using individual devices in real time, but the communication function is asynchronous, so data is received. The equipment on the operating side is usually controlled automatically. This is because the user of the device on the receiving side is operating (when transmission data continues to be stored in the device) even when the device is not in use (for example, when it is in the bag). Means there is.

In other words, considering that the loss of the device (hardware) or theft thereof may cause secondary damage, leakage of personal or organizational information stored in the device may cause a call function. The problem of loss or theft is more serious in information devices such as personal computers, which are the mainstream of communication functions, than in mobile phones whose communication functions have been expanded mainly.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems. A first object of the present invention is to prevent the mobile terminal from being stolen or lost, and a second object thereof is basically. Is to prevent the theft or loss of a mobile terminal typified by a laptop computer whose use place is fixed but whose use place can be easily changed by the user's intention.

Prior to the description of the control contents of each control unit, the monitoring control specifications of the two mobile terminals (information equipment device 200 and mobile phone 300) will be described with reference to FIGS. In the following description, the information device 2
The base position of 00 (normal use place) is assumed to be area A.

First, the state 1 shown in FIG.
This is the case where 0 exists in the area A (base position) and the mobile phone 300 exists in the area adjacent to the area A where the information device 200 is located. In this case, when the exchange 100 detects the present state 1, does the state change from the state in which the inter-area distance between the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 is "2" to the state in which it is "1" (adjacent state)? , Or is the state "0" existing in the same area changed to a state (adjacent state) apart from "1", or there is no change in the inter-area distance, and only the area where the mobile phone 300 is present has changed. Check what it is. And "2"
When the state is a transition from the separated state to the state separated by “1”, a command indicating system ON is transmitted to the information device 200. Further, when the state is a state away from “0” and a state away from “1”, a command indicating system OFF is transmitted to the information device 200.

The control in the state 1 of FIG.
00 in advance and control for preventing forgetting to turn off the power of the information device 200, the basic idea is the wireless terminal system disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-102197 and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-2001. This is the same as the intercom device that can be unlocked using the mobile portable terminal described in Japanese Patent Publication No.-3615. However, the present embodiment is different from the related art in that it is limited to the case where the information device 200 exists at the base position.

The state 2 shown in FIG. 5 is a case other than the state 1 in which the information device 200 exists in the area A (base position), that is, the information device 200 exists in the base position, and , The state where the mobile phone 300 exists at a position more than two away from the base position. In this case, no command is sent from the center to the two mobile terminals (information device 200 and mobile phone 300).

The state 3 shown in FIG. 6 is the information device 20.
This is a case where 0 exists in a region other than area A and the mobile phone 300 exists in the same area as the information device 200. In this case, if the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 continue to change within the same area, it is determined that a legitimate user is carrying both the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300. it can. Therefore, no command is sent from the center to the mobile terminal (information device 200, mobile phone 300).

Further, the state 4 shown in FIG.
This is the case where 0 exists in a region other than area A and the mobile phone 300 exists in an area adjacent to the information device 200.

The transition to the state 4 is as follows: (1) The mobile phone 300 is left behind and the information device 200
(2) Forget the information device 200 and leave the mobile phone 300
(3) Mobile phone 300 was stolen (4) Information device 200 was stolen (5) Normal Information device 200 was placed at the desk (meeting room) at the business trip destination (put it in the bag) The factors (1) to (5) are conceivable, such as going out to a meal with the cell phone 300 still, but among these, due to the factors (1) to (4), this state In order to notify the user of the possibility that the transition to (1) has occurred, in the case of this state 3, the center (exchange 100) issues an abnormal sound output command to the mobile terminal (both the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300).

Although the details will be described later, in order to allow the user to intentionally stop the output of the abnormal sound in the case of the factor (5), the mobile terminal (information device 20
0, both mobile phones 300) are preferably provided with a function (means) for temporarily stopping the monitoring service.

The state 5 shown in FIG. 8 is the state 4 in which the area distance between the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 is increased by the movement of the mobile phone 300.

The transition to the state 5 means (1) the information device 200 is left behind and continues to move without noticing the warning sound of the mobile phone 300 (2) the mobile phone 300 is stolen (3) The factors (1) to (3) that are normal (the same as the factor (5) of the state 4 described above) can be considered.

In this state 5, since it is considered that the portable telephone 300 is more likely to be stolen, the control with a slightly higher anti-theft property than in the case of state 4, that is, from the center (exchange 100) to the portable telephone is performed. Telephone call control to 300. Note that the telephone call process from the center at this time may or may not be a system that is performed via an operator (person) (a system that is automatically controlled). Ask the place "
Or "output the owner's name and contact information by voice".

Although not described in the present embodiment, the system should be such that the owner of the portable telephone 300 can obtain the exchange of telephone call control by calling / contacting the center through a public telephone or the like. Is preferred.

The state 6 shown in FIG. 9 is the case where the inter-area distance between the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 is further increased by moving the information device 200 in the state 4 shown in FIG.

The transition to the state 6 is as follows: (1) The mobile phone 300 was left behind and kept moving without noticing the alarm sound of the information device 200. (2) Factors such as the information device 200 being stolen. There are two cases of (1) and (2).

In this case, since it is almost unlikely that the mobile phone 300 is left conscious of being left and the information device 200 is moved, it is basically possible to make a transition to this state due to a normal factor. Because it can be said that
Not listed in the factor list.

That is, in the state 6, the information device 2
Since the possibility that 00 has been stolen has increased, control with a slightly higher antitheft property than in the case of state 4, that is, a center (exchange 100) transmits an alarm sound volume up command to the information device 200. Factor (1)
In order to suppress the continuous state of, the mobile phone 300 is controlled in the same manner as in state 5, and the call control from the sensor to the mobile phone 300 is performed.

Finally, the state 7 shown in FIG. 10 is changed from the state 5 or the state 6 to the information device 200 or the mobile phone 3.
By moving either of the 00 mobile terminals,
This is a case where the distance between the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 has increased.

The transition to the state 7 means that
Any mobile terminal (information device 200, mobile phone 30
0) was stolen or lost (lost)
It means that there is an increased risk that the mobile terminal will not return to its owner, and both the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 have higher anti-theft control than voice output control such as warning sound. That is, a system start / stop command and a call suppression command with a password are transmitted.

The points of the above-mentioned (monitoring control specification) are simply obtained: (1) When the information device 200 is present at the base position, the information device 200 is not subjected to theft or loss prevention control.

(2) When the information device 200 does not exist at the base position, the mobile phone 3 paired with the information device 200.
The control for preventing theft or loss is performed according to the distance from 00. Naturally, the greater the distance between the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300, the stronger the control for preventing or deterring theft or loss.

Next, the switching control unit 115, the information device 200, and the individual monitoring control units 115 and 21 of the mobile phone 300 are provided.
The control contents of 0 and 310 will be described. Note that each control may be executed by installing a program whose control content is determined in advance from a recording medium or downloading it from the Internet or the like.

First, the control contents of the supervisory control unit 115 of the exchange 100 will be described with reference to FIGS.
When the exchange 100 starts the (service) operation, the S entry in FIG. 11 is entered. Then, first, it is checked whether or not there is a request command relating to exchange control from another exchange 100 via the base station 400 or the exchange network 500 (S1), and a request command relating to exchange control from the other exchange 100. If there is, the public network connection control unit 110 controls (S2).

Note that the control contents of the public network connection control unit 110 are control as a telephone system and are not the point of the present invention, so will be omitted.

Next, if the request command is not related to exchange control in S1, it is checked whether or not there is a new registration request for the monitoring service via the base station 400 (S3), and the new registration request is issued. In this case, the process moves to entry 1 (see FIG. 12) described later. If it is not a service registration request in S3, it is checked whether or not there is a monitoring service suspension request (S
4) If the suspension request is issued, the process moves to entry 2 (FIG. 13) described later.

Further, if it is not a service suspension request in S4, it is checked whether or not there is a service suspension restart request (S5). If a restart request is transmitted, entry 3 described later is issued. (See FIG. 14).

When neither of the above requests is made,
That is, if the answer is NO in S5, the number of customers registered in the service (a value between loop counter i = 0 and UC-1) is set for the customers i by the monitoring processing unit MP to be described later. Operation (call) control, that is, the loop counter i is initialized to 0 value (S6), and it is checked whether the i value has reached the UC value (S7). If not, the monitoring processing unit uses the i value as a parameter. The MP is operated (called) and controlled (S8), the loop counter i is incremented, and the process returns to the loop entry S7 in order to monitor and control the next customer. Also, in step S7,
When the i value reaches the UC value, the S entry (S
Return to 1). The detailed contents of the monitoring control are shown in FIGS.
It will be described later using 8.

Next, the control contents when the new registration request is transmitted will be described with reference to FIG. This control is a control performed when YES in S3.

First, as shown in Table 3, the input parameters at the time of issuing a new registration request consist of three parameters.
The parameter (per1) is the connection identification code (telephone number) of the information device 200, the second parameter (per2) is the connection identification code (telephone number) of the mobile phone 300, and the third parameter (per3) is the system startup. This is the password used for deterrence and dial clock control.

[Table 3]

First, each base station 400 is inquired about the existence area of the information device 200 identified by per1 (S10).
0) If none of the base stations 400 can confirm the existence, the fact that the service cannot be registered is transmitted to the requesting terminal (S102). Also, in any of the base stations 400,
When the presence of the information device 200 identified by per1 is confirmed, this area is set to the field PCps of the customer DB.
And BSps are stored (S103). The field PCps is a storage area in which the current position of the information device 200 is stored, and the field BSps is a region in which the base position (normal use place or stationary place) of the information device 200 is stored. Is. That is, in the present embodiment, the position of the information device 200 at the time of request for new service registration is processed as the normal use place or deferred place of the information device 200.

Next, the fields PCid and TE of the customer DB
Input parameters per1, per2 and pe are added to Lid and PW.
store r3 (ie fields PCid, TELi
d and PW have the same meaning as per1, per2, and per3), and
The fields SStatus and Status are respectively set to a value of "1",
It is initialized to the value "0" (S104).

The field SStatus is a storage area in which the current implementation status of the monitoring service (monitor) is stored. When the value of the field SStatus is "1", monitoring is being executed, and the value of the field SStatus is When it is "0", it means that the monitoring is stopped. That is, in this step, it is initialized as monitoring is being performed.

Further, the field Status is a storage area in which a state that may be in a crisis state (lost or stolen) is recorded, and when the value of the field Status is 0 (NL) value, it means a normal state. 1 to 4 (TB1 to
A value of TB4) means that the value may be lost or stolen (see FIGS. 4 to 10 for details of individual values). That is, in step S104, the state is initialized as a normal state. This value means that the higher the value, the higher the possibility of loss or theft.

Next, per base stations 400 are
Inquiry about the existence area of the mobile phone 300 identified in 2 (S105), and it is determined whether or not the mobile phone 300 is found in any of the base stations 400 (106). When the existence confirmation is not obtained in any of the base stations 400. Stores a -1 value (-1 means out of range) in the field TELps of the customer DB (S108), and stores the area when the presence of the mobile phone 300 identified by per2 is confirmed. (S107). The field TELps is
This is a storage area in which the current position of the current mobile phone 300 is stored.

Finally, after the initialization control of each field of the customer DB is completed, a variable U indicating the number of service customers is provided.
Increment C, that is, update the variable UC to point to the next data field of the customer DB (S10
9) and returns to the start entry S (FIG. 11).

Next, the control contents when the suspension request of the monitoring service is transmitted will be described with reference to FIG.

First, as shown in Table 3 above, the input parameters at the time of issuing the suspension request for the monitoring service consist of two parameters. The first parameter (per1) is the information identification code ( phone number),
The second parameter (per2) is a password used for the occasion of system activation inhibition and dial lock control.

First, a customer matching the field PCid of the customer DB or TELid and the input parameter per1 is searched (S200), and if there is no customer, it is sent to the error request terminal which means that the service is not registered ( S202). If there is a customer who matches the input parameter per1, the customer's field SStat
By referring to us, it is checked whether or not the monitoring service is already in the stopped state (S203). If it is already in the stopped state, nothing is done and the process returns to the start entry S (FIG. 11).

In step S203, when the monitoring service is in operation, next, the field PW of this customer is compared with the input parameter per2, that is, the set password matches the password at the time of the suspension request. Field SStatus to a value of "0", that is,
The service is suspended (S205), and the process returns to the start entry S (FIG. 11).

If the passwords do not match in step S204, the field Status value is referred to (S206) to check the possible loss or theft status of the device. If the status is not abnormal, simply enter the password. To the error requesting terminal (per1), which means that the device is different (S207), and conversely, if there is a possibility that the device is lost or stolen, a request to stop the monitoring service is sent from the stolen or lost device. Since it is highly likely that the request has been made, a password dial lock or system activation lock command is sent to the requesting terminal (per1) (S208),
Return to the start entry S (FIG. 11).

Note that the above-described processing (start-up lock due to password mismatch) may be erroneous, so in an actual system, it may be lost when the number of password mismatches exceeds a predetermined value. It is better to perform detailed control according to the possibility of theft, but in order to make it clearer to understand that the control should be changed according to the possibility of the loss or theft in the present embodiment. The main control is.

Next, the control contents when the monitor service restart request is transmitted will be described with reference to FIG. First, as shown in Table 3, the input parameter at the time of issuing the restart request of the monitoring service consists of one parameter, and the first parameter (per1) is the identification code (telephone number) of the device that issued the stop command.

First, a customer matching the field PCid or TELid of the customer DB and the input parameter per1 is searched (S300), and it is judged whether or not the corresponding customer exists (S301). , An error indicating that the service is not registered is transmitted to the requesting terminal (S302).

When there is a customer who matches the input parameter per1, the customer's field SStatus is displayed.
It is checked whether the monitoring service is already in the stopped state by referring to (S303), and if it is not in the stopped state, nothing is done and the start entry S (see FIG. 1) is performed.
Return to 1).

In step S303, when the monitoring service is stopped, the field SStatus is set to 1 value, that is, the suspended state is canceled (S304), and the field Status is set to 0 value, that is, lost or lost. The possible theft state is initialized to the no-abnormal state (NL) (S305), and the process returns to the start entry S (FIG. 11).

As can be seen from the control contents when the service is requested to be suspended and when the service is resumed from the suspended state, the password is checked at the time of the suspension request, but the password is checked at the time of the restart request. Not done

This means that anyone can resume monitoring, but only a person who knows the password for stopping monitoring can do it, that is, only the owner of the mobile terminal can do it. For the purpose of preventing loss or theft, etc. It is a matter of course that the control contents are natural.

Next, the monitoring control process (MP) called (operating) in step S8 (FIG. 11) will be described with reference to FIGS.

First, each base station 400 is queried for the area where the mobile terminal identified by the fields PCid and TELid exists, and stored in local variables CPCps and CTELps, respectively (S400).

Next, referring to the field SStatus value, it is checked whether or not the service is stopped (S401). If the service is stopped, the values of the local variables CPCps and CTELps are
Substituting into the fields PCps and TELps, respectively, that is, updating the value of the current area (S402), and ending the processing (transferring to the next step).

If it is determined in step S401 that the monitoring service is in progress, it is first checked whether the current location (CPCps) of the information device 200 matches the base position (field BSps value) of the information device 200. (S40
3) If they match, the field Status is referenced to check whether or not there is an abnormality in the current monitoring state (S410). If any abnormality is detected,
The location information (CPCps) of the terminal in step S402 is updated, and the process ends.

If no abnormality is detected in step S410, the distance between the areas of the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 is calculated and stored in the local variable d (S).
411), and further referring to the variable d, the adjacent area (1
(S412).

In step S412, when the distance between the areas of the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 does not match the adjacent area, the process proceeds to step S402, the location information of the mobile terminal is updated, and the process ends. To do. Further, when the distance between the areas of the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 matches the adjacent area, next, the previous mobile phone 30
Current position 0 (field TELps) and information device 200
Calculates the inter-area distance from the current position (CPCps) and stores it in the local variable d (S413), and refers to the variable d to check whether or not it matches the adjacent area (one value) (S414). .

In step S414, when the distance between the areas of the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 coincides with the adjacent area, transition of the positional relationship (distance relationship) between the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300. Since it can be determined that there is not, the process proceeds to step S402, the location information of the mobile terminal is updated, and the process ends.

When the distance between the areas of the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 does not match the adjacent area, it is checked whether they match the same area (0 value) (S415), and the same area is checked. If it is not an area, information device 2
00 to send a command for system activation, and in the case of the same area, send a command to stop information system 200 to the information device 200 (S416, S417), and step S4
02, the location information of the terminal is updated, and the process ends.

On the other hand, in step S403, the information device 20
When it is judged that the current position of 0 is not the base position,
First, it is checked whether the current position of the information device 200 (CPCps) and the current position of the mobile phone 300 (CTELps) are in the same area (S404).

In the case of the same area, nothing is done, the process proceeds to step S402, the location information of the mobile terminal is updated, and the process ends. If they are located in different areas, the inter-area distance between the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 is calculated and stored in the local variable d (S42).
0), referring to the variable d, it is checked whether or not it matches the adjacent area (one value) (S421).

If it is determined in step S421 that the inter-area distance between the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 coincides with the adjacent area, the entry TB1 (FIG.
Go to 6). In addition, the information device 200 and the mobile phone 30
When the inter-area distance from 0 does not match the adjacent area,
Check if the inter-area distance is binary (S422),
In the case of binary, the entry TB23 (FIG. 17) described later
If it is not binary, that is, if it is greater than binary, the process moves to the entry TB4 (FIG. 18) described later.

Next, the control content when the information device 200 is not at the base position and the distance between the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 is 1 (adjacent) will be described with reference to FIG.

First, the current position of the information device 200 (CPC
ps) adjacent area, current position of mobile phone 300 (CTE
Lps), whether or not there is an area out of the service area in any of the adjacent areas of the base station DB (NT_STD
Check using B []) (S450).

Area adjacent to the current position of the information device 200 (CPCps), the current position of the mobile phone 300 (CTELps)
If there is an out-of-service area in the adjacent area of, there is a possibility that it will not be able to be monitored due to the next movement (area transition). Therefore, in this embodiment, unconditional maximum theft or loss prevention control An entry TB4, which will be described later, is provided to control the activation lock of the information device 200 and the dial lock control of the mobile phone 300 with a password.
(FIG. 18).

Since the above control depends on the purpose of using the monitoring service, it should be left to the service receiving side in the actual system (system parameter that can be selected by the service user). In the present embodiment, this control is used in order to make it clear and easy to understand that it is necessary to consider moving out of the service area.

Next, in S450, the information device 200
Area adjacent to the current location (CPCps) of the mobile phone 300
When there is no out-of-range in the area adjacent to the current position (CTELps) of, the field Status is referred to and it is checked whether or not the current monitoring state is a state in which there is a possibility of abnormality already ( S451) If some abnormality has already been detected, the location information of the mobile terminal in step S454 is updated and the process ends. Also, S4
In S51, when there is no possibility of abnormality, S452.
To the information device 200 and the mobile phone 30.
Output to 0 and. Then, the field Status is set to TB1.
After setting to (1), the process proceeds to S454.

Next, the control contents when the information device 200 is not at the base position and the distance between the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 is 2 will be described with reference to FIG.

First, it is checked whether an area outside the service area exists in either the area adjacent to the current position of the information device 200 or the area adjacent to the current position of the mobile phone 300 (S460), and the service is provided in the adjacent area. If there is an out-of-range area, an entry TB4 (FIG. 18) described later will be given.
Move to.

Next, referring to the field Status, the current monitoring status is already TB3 (3) or TB4.
It is checked whether or not the state is (4) (S46).
1, S462), when it is already in the state of TB3 or TB4, only the location information of each mobile terminal is updated without any control (S47).
2), the process ends.

TB3 is set in steps S461 and S462.
And when it is not in any state of TB4,
Next, it is checked whether or not the area transition on the mobile phone 300 side has occurred (S463), and when it is determined that the area transition on the mobile phone 300 side has occurred, the monitoring status (Status) has already changed to It is checked whether or not TB2 (2) is set (S464), and when it is determined that TB2 is not set, call control is performed to the mobile phone 300 (S465) and the field Status is set to "2". It is updated to (TB2) (S466).

Note that in step S463, the mobile phone 30
When there is no area transition on the 0 side, or when the monitoring state is already in the state of TB2, the control (telephone call control) in steps S465 and S466 has already been performed. Do not implement.

Next, it is checked whether an area transition on the information device 200 side has occurred (S467), and the information device 20 is checked.
When it is determined that the 0-side area transition does not occur, the location information of each mobile terminal is updated (S472), and the process ends.

When the area transition on the information device 300 side is occurring, the current value of the monitoring status (Status) is T.
It is checked whether or not it is B2 (S468), and if it is not TB2, telephone call control is performed on the mobile phone 300 (S4).
69). If it is TB2, the telephone call control has already been performed, and thus step S469 is skipped.

Next, a volume up command for a warning sound is transmitted to the information device 200 (S470), and the field Status
Is updated to a ternary value (TB3) (S471), each mobile terminal location information is updated (S472), and the process ends.

Next, when the information device 200 is not in the base position and the distance between the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300 is 3 or more (including the case where the service area is out of the service area in any adjacent area of the current position). Regarding the control content, see FIG.
Will be explained.

First, the monitoring status (Status) is already TB
4 (4) is checked (S48)
0) In addition, when it is determined that the state of TB4 is not established, PW is performed on the information device 200 and the mobile phone 300.
Using the password stored in the parameter as a parameter, a system start lock and dial lock command by the password are transmitted (S481), and the field Status is updated to the value "4" (TB4) (S482). In addition, already TB
If it is 4 (4), the above step S48
1, S482 is skipped. Next, the location information of each mobile terminal is updated (S483), and the process ends.

Here, an example of a logic for calculating the inter-area distance will be described with reference to FIG. Information device 200 and mobile phone 3
The inter-area distance with 00 is calculated by the adjacent radio base stations 4
00 is a database base station DB (NT_S
TDB []) is used to check whether the areas are the same (whether the input parameters Area1 and Area2 match) (S500). If they match, a 0 value (same area) is returned. Next, if they are not in the same area, the base station DB is used to add Area 1 to the adjacent information.
It is checked whether or not two values are stored (existing) (S501), and if they are stored, one value (adjacent area) is returned.

Furthermore, when the area is not adjacent,
For all adjacent areas of Area1, it is sequentially checked whether Area2 values are stored (existing) in the adjacent area information of the adjacent areas (S502 to S50).
5) If any of the memory can be confirmed, a binary value is returned.

If it does not exist in any of the areas, the inter-area distance is larger than 2, and therefore it is ternary (since the processing of 3 or more is the same in the present embodiment, it is not necessary to obtain the details more than this control. ) Is returned.

[0138] Next, an example of the control contents on the side of the information device 200 corresponding to the above monitoring service will be described with reference to FIGS. 20 and 21. First, in the flow described below, the system variable sysf (a variable indicating whether or not system operation is suppressed by a password, 0 value: no suppression, 1
Value: password lock), serf (variable indicating whether the monitoring service is operating or stopped, 0 value: stopped, 1 value: running), passwd (password storage area) is the storage means 220.
The area is secured inside, and as factory settings,
It is assumed that it is initialized to 0 value, 1 value, or NULL.

The monitoring controller 210 of the information equipment 200 of the present embodiment is activated when the information equipment 200 is powered on, that is, the control is started from the entry PCS,
First, it is checked whether the monitoring service settings have been registered (S700). It should be noted that the present embodiment does not intentionally have a power-on button, and when the battery / battery is inserted into the device or the AC outlet is inserted, the monitoring controller 210
Shall operate. In S700, in the unregistered state, the user is prompted to enter the telephone number of the mobile phone 300 used for monitoring and the password used after the system activation lock by the password (S70).
1) Using the number and password of the mobile phone 300 input by the user, and the telephone number of the information device 200 (identification code when communication control is performed by the wireless communication information means 260) as parameters, the exchange 100 (service providing server) ) To the service registration request (S702). Originally, error processing for the service registration request is necessary, but it is omitted in this embodiment.

Next, it is checked whether or not any one of the system start key, the service pause key, and the service stop release key assigned as one key of the input means 240 has been pressed (S703, S704, S).
705), if none of the keys has been input, the process proceeds to entry PC2 (FIG. 21) described later.

In step S703, first, when the system start key is pressed, the system variable sysf
Referring to, it is checked whether the system operation is suppressed by the password (S710), and when the password is locked, the user is prompted to enter the password (S711), and the entered password is compared with the system variable passwd ( S712), only when they match, the system power is turned on, that is, the power supply SW circuit 285 is turned on (S713). After performing the step S713, or when the password does not match in the step S712, the process returns to the loop entry PCL.

When the service suspension key is pressed in S704, the system variable serf is referenced to check whether the monitoring service is in the operating state or the stopped state (S720), and the monitoring service has already stopped. In the state, nothing is done and the loop entry PCL
Return to. At the time of the monitoring service, the user is prompted to enter a password (S721), and the exchange 100 (service providing server) is requested to suspend the service using the password entered by the user and the telephone number of the information device 200 as parameters. Is sent (S722), and if there is no error for this request, the system variable serf is set to the value "0" (service is stopped) (S724). If there is an error in S723, nothing is done. Then, the process returns to the loop entry PCL.

Next, in S705, when the service stop release key is pressed, it is checked whether the monitoring service is in the operating state or the stopped state by referring to the system variable serf (S730), and the monitoring service is in the stopped state. If not, the process returns to the loop entry PCL without doing anything. In the stop state, a service restart request is issued to the exchange 100 (service providing server) using the telephone number of the information device 200 as a parameter (S73).
1) If there is no error for this request, system variables
Set serf to one value (service is running) (S733),
If there is an error in S732, nothing is done and the process returns to the loop entry PCL.

Next, in steps S703 to 705, when none of the system start key, the service pause key, and the service stop release key is pressed, the exchange 100 (service providing server) issues an abnormal sound generation command. , A volume up command, a password lock command, a system off command, or a system on command is checked (S750 to S75).
4) If there is no call origination, do nothing and return to the loop entry PCL.

In step S750, when the abnormal sound generation command is issued, the voice output means 250 is operated at a medium volume (S760) and the process returns to the loop entry PCL. When the volume up command is transmitted in S751, the voice output means 250 is operated at a high volume (S76).
5) Return to loop entry PCL.

Further, in S752, when the password lock command is issued, the input parameter at the time of issuing the command is stored in the system variable syswd (S770), and the system variable sysf is set to the value "1" (password system activation suppression state). (S771), the system power is shut off, that is, the power supply SW circuit 285 is turned on.
FF control is performed (S772), and the process returns to the loop entry PCL.

When the system-off command is issued in S753, the system power is shut off, that is, the power supply SW circuit 285 is turned off (S77).
2) Return to loop entry PCL. When the system-on command is transmitted in S754, the system power is turned on, that is, the power supply SW circuit 285 is ON-controlled (S775).

Finally, an example of control contents on the side of the mobile phone 300 corresponding to the above monitoring service will be described with reference to FIGS. 22 and 23.

First, in the flow described below, system variables sysf (variable indicating whether system operation is suppressed by a password, 0 value: no suppression, 1 value: password lock), monf (information device 200 Is a variable indicating whether the mobile phone is used for monitoring, 0 value: not a monitoring terminal, 1 value: a monitoring terminal), serf (indicating whether the monitoring service is running or stopped) Variable: 0 value: stopped, 1 value: running), passwd (password storage area)
Area is secured in the storage means 320, and is initialized to 0 value, 0 value, 1 value, and NULL as factory settings. The monitoring control unit 310 of the mobile phone 300 of the present embodiment is activated when the mobile phone 300 is powered on, that is, the entry TELS.
The control is started further, and first, it is checked whether or not a button (which is one button assigned to the input means 340) meaning setting to the mobile phone 300 for monitoring is pressed (S800), When this button is pressed, the system variable monf is set to one value (monitoring terminal) (S810), and the process returns to the loop entry. Note that the mobile phone 300 of the present embodiment does not intentionally have a power-on button, and it is assumed that the monitoring controller 310 operates when the battery / battery is inserted into the device.

Next, in the case of NO in S800,
It is checked whether there is a dial input (S80
1) If there is a dial input, the system variable mo
nf is checked (S820), and only when the terminal is set for the monitoring terminal, the system variable sysf is referenced to check whether or not the password is dial locked (S).
821) In the dial lock state, the user is prompted to enter a password (S822), the entered password is compared with the system variable passwd (S823), and only when they match, the entered dial No. The call control unit 315 is operated to perform call control and call control (S
824). After performing step S824,
Alternatively, if the passwords do not match in step S823, the process returns to the loop entry.

If it is not set as the monitoring terminal in step S820, and if the password is not dial-locked in step S821, the call control unit 315 is activated by simply dialing the entered dial number. Control and call control are performed (S824).

Next, the base station 400 calls (calls) the call.
If there is a call (S802), when the call is made, the call control unit 315 is simply activated to suppress the call (S830).

Next, the system variable monf is checked (S
803), not set as a monitoring terminal (monf = 0)
Sometimes, it returns to the loop entry, and when it is set to the monitoring terminal (monf = 1), the user's input operation for monitoring service (service temporary stop button, service stop release button) control and base station Control (FIG. 23) is performed for a monitoring service command transmitted from the exchange 100 (service providing server) via the station 400.

First, in S804, when the service suspension button is pressed, the system variable serf
The operating status of the monitoring service is checked with reference to (S840), and if the monitoring service is already in the stopped state, nothing is done and the process returns to the loop entry.

At the start of the monitoring service, the user is prompted to enter a password (S841), and the exchange 100 (service providing server) provides a service using the password entered by the user and the telephone number of the mobile phone 300 as parameters. (S842), if there is no error for this request, the system variable serf is set to the value "0" (service is stopped) (S844), and when an error occurs, nothing is done and the process returns to the loop entry.

Next, in S804, when the service stop release key is pressed, it is checked whether the monitoring service is operating or stopped by referring to the system variable serf (S850). If is not in a stopped state, it returns to the loop entry without doing anything.

In S805, in the stop state, a service restart request is issued to the exchange 100 (service providing server) using the telephone number of the mobile phone 200 as a parameter (S851), and if there is no error in response to this request. System variable serf has 1 value (service is running)
Is set (S853), and when an error occurs, nothing is done and the process returns to the loop entry.

As can be seen from the above, in the present embodiment, it is assumed that new registration of service is not possible on the mobile phone 200 side. This is because it is based on the specification that the base position of the information device 200 is the position when a new registration request is made. Naturally, if the base position specifying method (specification) is different from that of the present embodiment,
The specifications for this matter will be different.

Next, in step S805, when it is determined that the user's input operation for the monitoring service (service temporary stop button, service stop release button) has not been performed, the process proceeds to entry TEL2 (FIG. 23). Base station 4
The presence / absence of a command for the monitoring service transmitted from the exchange 100 (service providing server) via 00 is checked (S860, S861) and the control associated therewith is performed.

First, when the abnormal sound generation command is generated, the voice output means 350 is operated with a content different from the normal ringing sound (S870), and the process returns to the loop entry. next,
When the password lock command is sent, the input parameter at the time of sending the command is stored in the system variable syswd (S
880), the system variable sysf is set to one value (system movement inhibition state by password) (S881), and the process returns to the loop entry.

In the above embodiment, only one type of command such as a warning sound transmission command or a system lock command is transmitted to the information device 200 or the mobile phone 300, but a warning sound transmission command and a system lock command are transmitted at the same time. For example, two or more different types of commands may be overlapped and transmitted to the same mobile terminal.

It should be considered that the embodiments disclosed this time are exemplifications in all points and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is shown not by the above description but by the scope of the claims, and is intended to include meanings equivalent to the scope of the claims and all modifications within the scope.
