  The radio unit 16 transmits / receives a radio signal to / from the base station via an antenna, and performs a radio communication connection for voice call and data communication. The audio processing unit 17 reproduces audio data input from the control unit 11 from the speaker 18, and outputs audio data obtained by performing audio processing on the audio signal input from the microphone 19 to the control unit 11. The timer 20 measures the timer time set by the control unit 11 and notifies the control unit 11 of a timeout due to completion of the time measurement using an interrupt signal. The timer 20 can generate an interrupt signal at the elapsed time set by the control unit 11. From this interrupt signal, the control unit 11 can know the elapsed time during the time measurement.

  In addition to the main control program of the mobile phone 1, the memory 12 stores programs for realizing various additional functions. The control unit 11 realizes each additional function by executing the program. Additional functions include various functions such as a music playback function, an electronic mail transmission / reception function, a Web browsing function, a television broadcast reception function, a radio broadcast reception function, and a game function.

  For example, when the music playback function is in operation, the control unit 11 reads out music data stored in the memory 12 or the external memory 13, outputs the music data to the audio processing unit 17, and plays it from the speaker 18.

  In the operation of the e-mail transmission / reception function, at the time of mail transmission, the control unit 11 reads out transmission mail data stored in the memory 12 or the external memory 13 and outputs it to the wireless unit 16 for wireless transmission. At the time of mail reception, the control unit 11 receives the received mail data received by the wireless unit 16 and stores it in the memory 12 or the external memory 13, and notifies the presence of mail reception by outputting a mail reception notification sound or displaying a mail reception notification image on the screen. To do. The mail reception notification image is a small image such as an icon, and a position to be displayed on the display surface is defined. The data of the ring tone and the mail reception notification image is stored in the memory 12.

  The control unit 11 controls the operation of the additional function as one control function of the mobile phone 1. Hereinafter, this control method will be described in detail.

[First Embodiment]
First, as the first embodiment, a function that automatically stops the operation of only the additional function when the additional function is operated during the operation of the wireless communication function (a state in which incoming calls can be waited) (hereinafter referred to as a sleep timer function). ). Here, a music playback function will be described as an example of the additional function.
FIG. 2 is a control flow diagram according to the first embodiment of the present invention. In the sleep timer function, the timer 20 is used to measure the time until the operation of the additional function (music reproduction function in this embodiment) is stopped. Further, the operation of the additional function is limited in a stepwise manner according to the measured value (in this embodiment, the volume during music playback is limited). Also, an operation setting menu for the sleep timer function is provided, and the user can set the operation of the sleep timer function according to this menu. For example, the time until the operation of the additional function is stopped, whether the operation of the additional function is restricted in stages, the start time, the time interval, and the limit amount when the operation of the additional function is restricted in stages are set. To be able to. In addition, there are default values for these setting values, and the default values are used for setting values that are not set by the user.

  In FIG. 2, the mobile phone 1 is operating the music playback function. During this operation, the control unit 11 reads the volume level (output value) stored in the memory 12 and notifies the audio processing unit 17 of the volume level (output value). The audio processing unit 17 performs reproduction at the volume level. Note that the output volume at this time is the output amount.

  First, when the user operates a key during the operation of the music playback function to display the operation setting menu of the sleep timer function and restricts the operation of the music playback function step by step until the operation of the music playback function stops. Start time, time interval and limit amount when the operation is limited stepwise. In the example of FIG. 2, the time until the operation of the music playback function is stopped is, for example, 10 minutes. Then, the volume at the time of music playback is set so as to decrease step by step from level 5 at 1 minute intervals step by step from 5 minutes before the operation of the music playback function is stopped.

  When this user setting is completed, the control unit 11 starts the process of FIG. 2, sets the set value of the sleep timer function for the timer 20 and starts timekeeping (step S1). Depending on the set value, the timer time is 10 minutes, and the elapsed time for generating an interrupt signal in the middle of timing is 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 minutes. As a result, the timer 20 interrupts the signal at each time after 5 minutes, 6 minutes, 7 minutes, 8 minutes, 9 minutes, and 10 minutes have elapsed since the start of timing. Is generated. That is, the interrupt signal is generated six times in total.

  Next, when the control unit 11 receives the first interrupt signal (this time point is 5 minutes after the start of timing, that is, 5 minutes before the music playback function is stopped), the volume level stored in the memory 12 is set. It is read and it is determined whether or not the volume level is level 6 or higher (step S2). As a result, if the level is 6 or higher, the volume level stored in the memory 12 is rewritten to level 5, and the change of the volume level “level 5” is notified to the audio processing unit 17 (step S3). As a result, the sound processing unit 17 reduces the volume to level 5.

  Next, when the control unit 11 receives the second interrupt signal (this time is 6 minutes after the start of timing, that is, 4 minutes before the operation of the music playback function is stopped), the volume level stored in the memory 12 Is read and it is determined whether or not the volume level is level 5 or higher (step S4). As a result, if the level is 5 or more, the volume level stored in the memory 12 is rewritten to level 4, and the volume level change “level 4” is notified to the audio processing unit 17 (step S5). As a result, the sound processing unit 17 reduces the volume to level 4.

  Similarly, when the control unit 11 receives the third, fourth, and fifth interrupt signals (each time is 7 minutes after the start of timing, 8 minutes, 9 minutes, that is, the music playback function is stopped). 3 minutes before, 2 minutes before, and 1 minute before), each time the volume level stored in the memory 12 is read to determine whether or not it is above a predetermined level (levels 4, 3, and 2 respectively) (step S6, S8, S10), if it is equal to or higher than the predetermined level, the volume level stored in the memory 12 is reduced by 1 level, and the change of the volume level is notified to the voice processing unit 17 (steps S7, S9, S11). As a result, the sound processing unit 17 gradually decreases the volume.

  Next, when the control unit 11 receives the sixth interrupt signal (at this point, 10 minutes have elapsed since the start of timing, that is, timed out), the control unit 11 stops the operation of the music playback function. Specifically, reading of music data from the memory 12 or the external memory 13 is stopped, and the audio processing unit 17 is notified of the stop of reproduction. Thereby, music reproduction stops.

  According to the above-described first embodiment, even if a plurality of processing functions such as a wireless communication function, a music playback function, and a television broadcast reception function are provided, the operation of only the music playback function is automatically stopped. You can keep waiting. Therefore, the user can continue to use the wireless communication function. For example, a voice call or an e-mail reception can be continuously awaited.

  In addition, since the volume during music playback can be reduced in stages, music playback can be stopped in a natural manner.

  Although the music playback function has been described in the present embodiment, other functions such as a television broadcast reception function, a radio broadcast reception function, and a game function are also automatically stopped and volumed by the sleep timer function. Step-by-step reduction.

In the present embodiment, the elapsed time is acquired by the interrupt signal from the timer 20, but the elapsed time of the timer 20 may be read from the control unit 11.
Furthermore, when the additional function is stopped due to a timeout, the volume level stored in the memory 12 is preferably returned to the volume level at the stage of step S1 (that is, the start time). The same applies when the additional function is terminated at the user's will. This prevents the volume level from becoming the minimum value the next time the additional function is used.

[Second Embodiment]
Next, as a second embodiment, a function for restricting the operation of other functions during the operation of the sleep timer function for controlling the operation of the music playback function will be described. Here, as another function, an incoming call and e-mail reception function will be described as an example. FIG. 3 is a control flow diagram according to the second embodiment of the present invention.

  First, when starting the operation of the sleep timer function related to the music playback function, the control unit 11 monitors incoming calls and mail reception by the wireless unit 16 in FIG. 3 (step S21). Next, when there is an incoming call, the control unit 11 reads the incoming / mail reception conditions stored in the memory 12 and determines whether or not all incoming calls are set to be rejected (step S22). As a result, if all are set to call rejection, call rejection processing is executed (step S23). For example, message data indicating that the callee is sleeping is read from the memory 12, and the message data is sent to the caller, and then the communication is disconnected. On the other hand, if the incoming call rejection is not all, the process proceeds to step S24.

  Next, in step S24, the control unit 11 determines a transmission address, and determines whether or not the transmission address matches a condition designated to allow incoming / mail reception based on the incoming / mail reception conditions. As a result, if the conditions do not match, the presence of mail reception is notified only by the screen display of the mail reception notification image at the time of mail reception (step S25). Therefore, the mail reception notification sound is not output. In the case of a voice call, an incoming call rejection process is executed as in step S23 (step S26).

  On the other hand, if the result of determination in step S24 matches the condition, the control unit 11 temporarily stops music playback and backs up data for restarting playback (step S27). Specifically, reading of music data from the memory 12 or the external memory 13 is stopped, and the audio processing unit 17 is notified of the reproduction stop, and the reproduction stop position (audio file storage address, reproduction track and frame number, reproduction) The parameters indicating the sound reproduction operation state such as time and volume are stored in the memory 12. Note that the operation of the timer 20 is not stopped.

  Next, the control unit 11 performs incoming / mail reception processing (step S28). Here, at the time of mail reception, the presence of mail reception is notified by outputting a mail reception notification sound or displaying a screen of a mail reception notification image. Also, a ringing tone is output during a voice call.

  Next, when the incoming / mail receiving process ends, the control unit 11 determines whether or not the timer 20 is before the time-out (step S29). As a result, if it is before the time-out, a parameter indicating the backed-up sound reproduction operation state is read from the memory 12, and music reproduction from the reproduction stop position is resumed at the same volume as the reproduction interruption point based on this parameter (step S30). On the other hand, if the time is out, the backup is not restored and the process is terminated.

  According to the second embodiment described above, it is possible to limit the operation at the time of incoming call / mail reception during the operation of the sleep timer function, and it is possible to prevent unnecessary interruption of the music playback operation. Thereby, listening to music at bedtime can be prevented from being unintentionally disturbed by voice calls or mail reception. Further, by performing a backup process when the music playback operation is interrupted, the music playback can be resumed by returning to the operation state at the time of the interrupt when playback is resumed. Thereby, since it can return to the music listening state before interruption quickly, the effect which reduces the user's psychological burden by sudden music reproduction interruption can be expected.

In the second embodiment described above, when the mobile phone 1 is provided with a speaker used when outputting a mail reception notification sound in addition to the speaker used during music reproduction, in step S25, the mail reception notification sound is provided. You may make it reduce the sound volume.
Furthermore, in the above-described second embodiment, it is more preferable to provide an alarm function separately from the sleep timer function and to interlock it. In other words, after the sleep timer function is activated and the user goes to bed, the restriction of incoming / mail reception in the process shown in FIG. 3 is effective, and the incoming / mail reception restriction is automatically activated when the alarm alarm sounds. Release it. As a result, it is possible to prevent forgetting to cancel the restriction on incoming / mail reception.

The embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the specific configuration is not limited to this embodiment, and includes design changes and the like within a scope not departing from the gist of the present invention.
For example, the mobile terminal device according to the present invention is not limited to the mobile phone as in the above-described embodiment, and may be a mobile terminal device having a wireless communication function. For example, it may be a portable information device, a computer game machine, a music recording / reproducing machine, or the like.

  Further, the speaker according to the above-described embodiment may be any of a built-in ring tone reproduction speaker and music reproduction speaker, or an externally connected earphone or headphone type speaker. Further, the control unit may determine which speaker is to be output by determining the state of the external connection interface.

  The mobile terminal device according to the present invention may have the functions of the first and second embodiments and realize a music player as described below. In the following description of the embodiment, the same reference numerals are added to the respective parts in FIG. 1, FIG. 2 and FIG.

[Example of portable terminal device]
The user purchases music data with charge from a predetermined server on the network. The purchased music data is stored in the internal memory 12 or the external memory 13 of the mobile terminal device. The music data is compressed (coded) data, such as MP3. The portable terminal device includes an audio processing unit 17 having a codec that decodes compressed music data. When the user's music playback instruction is input, the control unit 11 instructs the audio processing unit 17 to secure a work area on the memory 12 and prepare for decoding of the compressed music data. Then, the control unit 11 searches the memories 12 and 13 for reproducible compressed music data, creates a reproducible music list, and causes the display unit 15 to display the list. The user designates the music to be reproduced from the list and instructs the reproduction. Thereafter, the audio processing unit 17 decodes the designated compressed music data by the codec and outputs it from the speaker 18. Note that the speaker 18 may be any of a built-in ring tone reproduction speaker, a music reproduction speaker, or an externally connected earphone or headphone type speaker. Further, the control unit 11 may determine which speaker is to be output by determining the state of the external connection interface.

  Once the control unit 11 instructs the audio processing unit 17 to perform decoding and audio output, the control unit 11 thereafter monitors the occurrence of an interrupt. The types of interrupts include notification from the audio processing unit 17 such as the end of music data playback or error occurrence, a signal from the key operation unit 14 (step S1), and a notification of incoming or mail reception from the wireless unit 16 (step S21). There are signals from the timer 20 (steps S2, S4, S6, S8, S10, S12), notification of a decrease in the remaining battery level, and the like. When the control unit 11 determines that a process related to music playback, such as a music playback stop command, other song designation, volume change, or playback restart, is required, the control unit 11 instructs the audio processing unit 17 again. As a result, other processes such as mail creation during music playback are processed in a multitasking manner. In particular, when the audio processing unit 17 is instructed to stop in the backup state, the decoded music data is kept in the work area, the work area is not released, and the playback stop address and volume are set. After storing in the area, the audio processing unit 17 is instructed to stop reproduction (step S27). When resuming the reproduction, the reproduction is resumed in the same state as when the reproduction was stopped based on the reproduction stop address and the volume stored in the work area (step S30).

  The control unit 11 recognizes that there is an incoming call to itself by detecting the incoming signal in the received signal by the wireless unit 16 (step S21). At this time, the internal state of the own apparatus is determined (steps S22 and S24). If it is determined that the incoming call can be notified, a ring tone is output from the speaker 18 (step S28). The audio data used here may be the above-described compressed music data such as MP3 or MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) data.

  When the incoming call occurs (step S21), the control unit 11 determines from the incoming call signal whether the incoming call is a voice call, a mail reception, or a short message reception. Further, the control unit 11 determines whether or not the music player is playing, whether or not the timer 20 is activated. Then, if the music playback is interrupted and the incoming call process is prioritized (step S24, YES), the above-described backup process is performed, and then the operation of the voice processing unit 17 is temporarily stopped (step S27). Are read from the memory 12 (step S28). Here, if decoding is necessary at the time of reproduction of the ring tone data, the work memory is secured, and the audio processing unit 17 is instructed to reproduce the ring tone data. Thereafter, the control unit 11 returns to the interrupt monitoring process, and monitors key input, the opening / closing detection signal of the casing, the disappearance of the incoming signal, and the like. Next, when a transition to a call is instructed, the control unit 11 stops the ring tone reproduction by the voice processing unit 17 to start the voice processing for the call, starts the call codec, and the speaker 18 and Call processing using the microphone 19 is started (step S28).

  Further, the control unit 11 may determine whether or not to limit the reception operation for each received mail based on the weighting information associated with the received mail. This determination is made in step S24 of FIG. The weighting information is, for example, the degree of urgency in the header information of received mail.

  The urgency can be specified by the sender when creating the outgoing mail. For example, it is possible to specify one of three levels of high, medium, and low urgency levels. The header information of the outgoing mail is created according to the designated urgency level.

  As a procedure for receiving the mail, first, the terminal ID is designated from the base station and the call type is designated, and then the terminal is called out. Next, when the terminal responds, the channel for acquiring the next information is designated from the base station, and the channel shifts to this channel. After the migration, the received mail header information can be acquired first. This header information includes a transmission source address, a destination address, a subject, an urgency level, a part of a body text, an address of a mail server that is accessed at the time of obtaining a full text, a mail ID, and the like. When the header information acquisition routine ends, communication is temporarily disconnected, and the mail server is newly accessed based on the acquired header information, and the entire mail corresponding to the mail ID is acquired.

  In the mail reception procedure described above, when the control unit 11 obtains the header information of the received mail, the control unit 11 determines the urgency of the received mail based on the header information (step S21). Then, based on the determined degree of urgency, it is determined whether or not to restrict the reception operation of the received mail (step S24). For example, there is no limit if the urgency level is high, and there is a limit if the urgency level is medium or low.
