When the third fixed terminal 7 receives the settlement request signal from the mobile terminal 1 by relaying the first fixed terminal 5 and the second fixed terminal 6, the third fixed terminal 7 sets the logical value “1” in the corresponding column of the settlement waiting of the order detailed information.
After that, when the order acceptance signal from the mobile terminal 1 is received, the settlement processing is performed and the settlement-completed column of the detailed order information is set to the logical value “1”.

FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining the operation flow of the wireless communication method and wireless communication system of the present invention.

First, the management server 201 publishes on the homepage a system for performing an unmanned order for food and drink and an unmanned payment for food and drink using the mobile terminal 1. A customer who desires to use this system operates the mobile terminal 1 to set and input the URL of the management server 201, and connects the mobile terminal 1 and the management server 201 via the communication line 203.
The mobile terminal 1 transmits to the management server 201 a request signal for obtaining a short-distance wireless communication program for performing direct wireless communication with the first fixed terminal 5 and the third fixed terminal 7. The management server 201 stores the unique information (telephone number, etc.) from the mobile terminal 1 for the purpose of utilizing it for sales promotion, and also transmits the above short-range wireless communication program to the mobile terminal 1. The mobile terminal 1 stores the above short-range wireless communication program in the ROM 101. As a result, the customer completes preparations for unmanned ordering of food and drink and unmanned settlement of food and drink in the store 2.

Now, the customer carries the portable terminal 1 and goes to the store 2
When seated on the chair 4 around the table 3 inside, the mobile terminal 1 and the first fixed terminal 5 on the table 3 are in the radio wave reachable range that enables short-range wireless communication. First, the first fixed terminal 5 transmits the menu information from the ROM 301 to the mobile terminal 1. Upon receiving the menu information, the mobile terminal 1 displays on the display unit 107 information on the type and price of food and drink included in the menu information. The display unit 10
Key 106 to confirm the contents of 7 and order food and drink
When is operated, the mobile terminal 1 transmits a product order signal to the first fixed terminal 5. Upon receiving the product order signal, the first fixed terminal 5 creates an order acceptance signal for identifying the customer, associates the product order signal with the order acceptance signal, and then RA
Store in M303. After that, the first fixed terminal 5 transmits an order reception signal to the mobile phone 1 and at the same time as the table 3
The location information, the product order signal, and the order acceptance signal are associated with each other and transmitted to the second fixed terminal 6 in the kitchen. Upon receiving the order reception signal, the mobile terminal 1 stores it in the RAM 103. When the second fixed terminal 6 receives the position information of the table 3, the product order signal, and the order acceptance signal, the second fixed terminal 6 stores it in the RAM 403 and transmits the order acceptance completion signal to the first fixed terminal 5.

When the store clerk prepares the cooked food and drink on the table 3 and presses the serving end button 411, the second fixed terminal 6 transmits a totalization request signal to the third fixed terminal 7. Third
When the fixed terminal 7 receives the counting request signal, the fixed terminal 7 creates the order detail information of FIG. 8 and stores it in the RAM 503.

After the customer eats and drinks and operates the portable terminal 1 at the seat to transmit the settlement request signal to the first fixed terminal 5, the first fixed terminal 5 transmits the settlement request signal to the second fixed terminal 6. . The second fixed terminal 6 transmits the settlement request acceptance signal to the first fixed terminal 5 and also transmits the settlement request signal to the third fixed terminal 7.

The third fixed terminal 7 waits without executing the settlement process until the order acceptance signal from the portable terminal 1 is received with the logical value "1" in the corresponding column of the settlement detail information in the order detail information. When the customer operates the mobile terminal 1 at the settlement place and sends an order acceptance signal to the third fixed terminal 7, the third fixed terminal 7
Determines that the order acceptance signal is valid and executes settlement processing. The third fixed terminal 7 sends a settlement completion signal to the mobile terminal 1 by setting the relevant column of settlement completed in the order detailed information to the logical value “1”. Upon receiving the settlement completion signal, the mobile terminal 1 erases the order acceptance signal in the RAM 103.

From the above, the unmanned order of food and drink and the unmanned settlement of food and drink are completed.

The first fixed terminal 5 may store digital contents such as music information in the ROM 301 and provide the digital contents by short-distance wireless communication with the mobile terminal 1. In addition, the third fixed terminal 7 may execute a discount settlement process for distinguishing a customer who performs an unmanned order for food and drink and an unmanned payment for food and drink from other customers.

The store 2 has a fourth fixed terminal (not shown) for externally advertising that the store 2 is an unmanned order for food and drink and unmanned settlement of food and drink.
It may be installed in a specific place outside. The fourth fixed terminal has the same configuration as the first fixed terminal 5 of FIG.
A radio wave reach distance (for example, a radius of 10 m centering on the store 2) for performing near field communication with the outside mobile terminal 1 and near field communication of the first to third fixed terminals 5, 6, and 7. The radio frequency is set to prevent radio interference. The fourth fixed terminal is a host computer outside the store 2,
It is communicatively connected to the terminal computer in the store 2, the management server 201, etc., and receives and stores new information for external advertisement in response to a change request from the other party. In addition, store 2
If the mobile terminal 1 has a fourth fixed terminal installed,
A short-distance wireless communication program for directly wirelessly communicating with the fourth fixed terminal is also stored.

Now, when the user carries the portable terminal 1 and moves within a radius of 10 m centered on the store 2, the fourth fixed terminal starts short-distance wireless communication with the portable terminal 1.
Submit information for external advertising. The mobile terminal 1 is the fourth
When the information from the fixed terminal is received, the received information is displayed on the display unit 107 after sounding or vibrating. Than this,
The user can confirm that an unmanned order for food and drink and an unmanned settlement for food and drink are located within a radius of 10 m around the user himself.

As described above, the store 2 can provide the store information to the external user who carries the portable terminal 1, so that the sales can be increased.
