Hereinafter, an operation at the time of outgoing call by voice communication, an operation at the time of incoming call by voice communication, and an operation at the time of IM reception will be described.

  First, the operation at the time of transmission by voice communication will be described as the operation on the terminal 1 side when the terminal 1 transmits to the terminal 2.

  When the user of the terminal 1 operates the key unit 14 to input the telephone number of the terminal 2 and operates the call button, the MPU 21 transmits the telephone number of the terminal 2 to the voice communication control unit 26, and the voice communication control unit 26.

At this time, the MPU 21 is activated if the IMAP 29 is not activated in order to enable subsequent IM transmission / reception. The activated IMAP 29 notifies the IM server 3 that the presence of the terminal 1 is online by the data communication control unit 25 using presence data transmitted through the wireless line 33 and the antenna 16. Next, the MPU 21 displays the transmission information on the display unit 13 (step S102). A display example of the transmission information is shown in FIG.

  Referring to FIG. 14A, in the outgoing information displayed on the display unit 13, a message button 61 is displayed in addition to the telephone number of the communication partner and a display indicating that a call is being made. This message button 61 is a button that is operated when an IM is transmitted to the currently called communication partner.

  Subsequently, the MPU 21 secures one empty entry in the transmission history storage unit 32 of the flash memory 23 and registers the transmission history (step S103). For example, when the entry E21 in the outgoing call history storage unit 32 of FIG. 8 is secured as an empty entry, the current outgoing date and time and outgoing telephone number are registered in the entry E21, and the IM data location is set to NULL. If all entries are in use, the entry with the oldest transmission date is secured as a free entry.

  Next, the MPU 21 determines whether or not the communication partner has responded, whether or not an operation for stopping outgoing calls has been performed by the key unit 14, and whether or not IM transmission has been selected by the operation of the message button 61 in FIG. Monitor (steps S104 to S106). When the communication partner responds, the call state is changed and the display on the display unit 13 is switched to the display of call information for displaying the call time (step S107). Then, when the end talk is detected thereafter (step S108), the end talk processing such as returning the display on the display unit 13 to the initial state is performed (step S109), and the process of FIG. 11 is finished. When a call stop operation is detected, a call termination process is immediately performed (step S109), and the process of FIG.

  On the other hand, when the IM transmission is selected, the MPU 21 reads the fixed phrase from the fixed sentence storage unit 38-1 in the fixed sentence storage unit 38 of the flash memory 23, and transmits the fixed sentence including the read fixed sentence. The transmission message selection information is displayed on the display unit 13 (step S111). A display example of transmission message selection information for outgoing is shown in FIG.

  Referring to FIG. 14 (b), standard message selection items such as “1. Call back” or “2. Call again” are included in the outgoing message selection information displayed on the display unit 13. Is displayed. “0. Cancel” indicates an item to be selected when canceling the message selection.

  Next, the MPU 21 waits for selection of one of the fixed sentence selection items or selection of a cancellation item (steps S112 and S113). When the cancel item is selected, the state is returned to the display of the transmission information in FIG. 14A (step S116). When any one of the fixed text selection items is selected, the IM is transmitted to the IMAP 29. Is requested (step S114). At this time, the MPU 21 notifies the IMAP 29 of data in which the telephone number of the terminal 1 is added to the head of the selected fixed phrase as a transmission message. Further, it is checked whether or not the IM address corresponding to the telephone number of the communication partner being called (the telephone number of the terminal 2) is registered in the correspondence table storage unit 37. The IM address corresponding to the telephone number is notified to the IMAP 29 as a destination address, and if not registered, the IMAP 29 is notified of that and the telephone number of the terminal 2 as the destination address.

  The IMAP 29 sets the transmission message notified from the MPU 21 in the data 44 portion in the transmission format of FIG. 10A, and sets the IM server 3 address predetermined for the IM server address 41 to the own IM address 43. The IM address of the terminal 1 is set, and when the IM address of the communication partner terminal 2 is notified, the IM address is set to the partner address 42 and the flag 47 is set to the value 1. When the telephone number of 2 is notified, the telephone number is set in the destination address 42 and the flag 47 is set to the value 0, so that transmission data is created and passed to the data communication control unit 25 for transmission. Instruct. The data communication control unit 25 transmits IM data from the antenna 16 to the packet network 6 through the wireless circuit 33 according to a predetermined communication protocol. The packet network 6 delivers the received IM data to the IM server 3 according to the IM server address 41, and the IM server 3 delivers this IM to the terminal 2. The operation of the IM server 3 at this time will be described in detail later together with a configuration example of the IM server 3.

  When the transmission of IM is completed, the MPU 21 displays transmission completion information as shown in FIG. 14C for a while on the display unit 13 (step S115), and then returns to the display state of FIG. S116). Then, control returns to step S104.

  Next, the operation at the time of incoming call by voice communication will be described as the operation on the terminal 2 side when transmitting from the terminal 1 to the terminal 2.

  The voice communication control unit 26 of the terminal 2 receives the incoming signal from the line network 5 (step S201 in FIG. 12), and is sent from the line network 5 by the function of notifying the incoming call and the caller telephone number notification function. The telephone number of the terminal 1 is detected and notified to the MPU 21. Upon receiving this notification, the MPU 21 starts up the IMAP 29 if it has not been started in order to enable later IM transmission / reception. The activated IMAP 29 notifies the IM server 3 that the presence of the terminal 1 is online by the data communication control unit 25 using presence data transmitted through the wireless line 33 and the antenna 16.

  Next, the MPU 21 displays the incoming call information on the display unit 13 (step S202). A display example of incoming information is shown in FIG.

  Referring to FIG. 15A, in the incoming call information displayed on the display unit 13, a message button 71 is displayed in addition to a caller telephone number and a display indicating that a call is being received. The message button 71 is a button that is operated when IM is transmitted to a communication partner who has made a call.

  Subsequently, the MPU 21 secures one empty entry in the incoming call history storage unit 31 of the flash memory 23 and registers the incoming call history (step S203). For example, when the entry E11 in the incoming call history storage unit 31 of FIG. 7 is secured as an empty entry, the current incoming date and time and the caller telephone number are registered in the entry E11, and the IM data location is set to NULL. If all entries are in use, the entry with the oldest transmission date is secured as a free entry.

  Next, the MPU 21 determines whether or not the response button on the key unit 14 has been pressed, whether or not the call from the communication partner has been stopped, and whether or not IM transmission has been selected by operating the message button 71 in FIG. Each is monitored (steps S204 to S206). When the response button is pressed, the MPU 21 sends a response signal to the line network 5 by the voice communication control unit 26 to enable voice communication (step S207), and the display unit 13 displays the call time or the like. Is switched to display of call information (step S208). Then, when the end talk is detected thereafter (step S209), the end talk processing such as returning the display on the display unit 13 to the initial state is performed (step S210), and the process of FIG. 12 is finished. When the call stop is detected, the call termination process is immediately performed (step S210), and the process of FIG.

  On the other hand, when the IM transmission is selected, the MPU 21 reads the standard text from the standard text storage unit 38-2 for incoming calls in the standard text storage unit 38 of the flash memory 23, and receives the standard text including the read standard text. Is displayed on the display unit 13 (step S211). FIG. 15B shows a display example of transmission message selection information for incoming calls.

  Referring to FIG. 15 (b), the transmission message selection information for incoming calls displayed on the display unit 13 includes fixed phrases such as “1. In a meeting” and “2. The selected item is displayed. “0. Cancel” indicates an item to be selected when canceling the message selection.

  Next, the MPU 21 waits for selection of any fixed sentence selection item or selection of a cancellation item (steps S212 and S213). When the cancel item is selected, the display is returned to the incoming call information display of FIG. 15A (step S216), but when any one of the fixed text selection items is selected, the IM is sent to the IMAP 29. Is requested (step S214). At this time, the MPU 21 notifies the IMAP 29 of data in which the telephone number of the terminal 2 is added to the head of the selected fixed phrase as a transmission message. Further, it is checked whether or not the IM address corresponding to the telephone number of the communication partner that is receiving the call (the telephone number of the terminal 1) is registered in the correspondence table storage unit 37. The IM address corresponding to the telephone number is notified to the IMAP 29 as the destination address, and if it is not registered, the IMAP 29 is notified to that effect and the telephone number of the terminal 1 as the destination address.

  The IMAP 29 sets the transmission message notified from the MPU 21 in the data 44 portion in the transmission format of FIG. 10A, and sets the IM server 3 address predetermined for the IM server address 41 to the own IM address 43. The IM address of the terminal 2 is set, and when the IM address of the communication partner terminal 1 is notified, the IM address is set to the partner address 42 and the flag 47 is set to the value 1. When the telephone number of 1 is notified, the telephone number is set in the destination address 42 and the flag 47 is set to the value 0, so that transmission data is created and passed to the data communication control unit 25 for transmission. Instruct. The data communication control unit 25 transmits IM data from the antenna 16 to the packet network 6 through the wireless circuit 33 according to a predetermined communication protocol. The packet network 6 delivers the received IM data to the IM server 3 according to the IM server address 41, and the IM server 3 delivers this IM to the terminal 1. The operation of the IM server 3 at this time will be described in detail later together with a configuration example of the IM server 3.

  When the transmission of IM is completed, the MPU 21 displays the transmission completion information as shown in FIG. 15C for a while on the display unit 13 (step S215), and then returns to the display state of FIG. S216). Then, control returns to step S204.

  Next, operations of the terminal 1 and the terminal 2 when IM is received will be described using the terminal 2 as an example.

  When the IMAP 29 receives the IM data from the terminal 1 in the reception format as shown in FIG. 10B through the antenna 16 and the radio line 33 in the data communication control unit 25 (step S301 in FIG. 13), the IMAP 29 receives the received IM data. Is stored in the message reception area of the RAM 24 (step S302).

  When the IM data is stored in the RAM 24 by the IMAP 29, the MPU 21 extracts a predetermined bit length of the head portion of the stored IM data as a caller telephone number (step S303), and is the same as the extracted caller telephone number. The latest incoming call history including the incoming phone number is searched from the incoming call history storage unit 31 of the flash memory 23 (step S304). Thereafter, the process is divided according to whether the search has succeeded or failed (step S305).

  When the search of the incoming call history storage unit 31 is successful (YES in step S305), the MPU 21 stores the latest outgoing call history including the same outgoing telephone number as the extracted caller telephone number from the outgoing call history storage unit 32 of the flash memory 23. Search is performed (step S306). If this search is successful (YES in step S307), the incoming date / time in the latest incoming history searched in step S304 is compared with the outgoing date / time in the latest outgoing history searched in step S306, A history with a newer date and time is set as a registration candidate history (step S308). If the search of the outgoing call history storage unit 32 fails (NO in step S307), the latest incoming call history searched in step S304 is set as a registration candidate history (step S309).

  On the other hand, if the search of the incoming call history storage unit 31 fails, the MPU 21 searches the outgoing call history storage unit 32 of the flash memory 23 for the latest outgoing call history including the same outgoing telephone number as the extracted caller telephone number (step S310) When this search is successful (YES in step S311), the searched latest call history is set as a registration candidate history (step S312). If the search of the outgoing call history storage unit 32 also fails (NO in step S311), it is determined that the IM received this time is an IM unrelated to outgoing and incoming calls by voice communication, and the processing of FIG. Finish.

  Finally, the MPU 21 registers the message body (part other than the caller telephone number) of the IM data received this time in the outgoing call history or incoming call history that is the registration candidate history in step S308, S309, or S312 (step S313). For example, if the incoming call history recorded in the entry E11 in FIG. 7 is a registration candidate history, the IM data is registered in the IM data storage area. At this time, if another IM data is already registered, it is registered in a form to be added subsequently.

  Next, a configuration example and operation of the IM server 3 will be described. The IM server 3 shown below is almost the same as the IM server described in Patent Document 1.

  Referring to FIG. 16, one embodiment of the IM server 3 includes a receiving unit 101 that receives data from the terminals 1 and 2, a data buffer 102 that temporarily stores IM received from the terminals 1 and 2, and a data buffer. 102 manages the presence of each terminal based on presence data (data indicating either online or offline) of the terminals 1 and 2 received by the receiving unit 101, and the control unit 103 that controls the delivery of IM stored in 102 In addition, a presence management unit 104 that performs processing to notify presence data of other terminals to an online terminal, a transmission unit 105 that transmits IM and terminal presence data received from the terminal to the other terminals, and terminal 1 2, a user database 107 that stores a correspondence table 106 between two telephone numbers and IM addresses, and a copy of a part of the correspondence table 106. , The address search unit 109 for searching for the IM address corresponding to the telephone number from the correspondence table 106, and the telephone number from the control unit 103, and the IM address corresponding to the telephone number exists in the cache 108. If it exists (this is called a hit), the existing IM address is returned to the control unit 103. If it does not exist (this is called a miss), the telephone number is sent to the address search unit 109. An address conversion unit 110 is provided for requesting a search by passing the search result and returning the search result to the control unit 103.

  FIG. 17 is a flowchart showing a processing example of the IM server 3 when IM data is received from the terminal. Hereinafter, the operation of the IM server 3 will be described taking the case where IM data addressed to the terminal 2 is received from the terminal 1 as an example.

  When the IM data transmitted from the terminal 1 is received by the receiving unit 101 (step S401), the IM server 3 temporarily stores the data in the data buffer 102 (step S402). Next, the control unit 103 extracts the received IM data from the data buffer 102 (step S403), and checks whether the value of the flag (flag 47 in FIG. 10A) is 0 (step S404). If the value of the flag is 1, since the partner IM address is set in the IM data, the process proceeds to step S409. If the value of the flag is 0, the destination IM address is not set in the IM data, and instead the destination phone number set is extracted from the location of the destination address 42 in FIG. (Step S405), and passes to the address conversion unit 110.

  The address conversion unit 110 checks whether or not correspondence information between the same destination telephone number and IM address exists in the cache 108 (step S406). If it exists, the corresponding IM address is returned to the control unit 103. If it does not exist, the destination telephone number is passed to the address search unit 109.

  The address search unit 109 checks whether the correspondence information between the same destination telephone number and the IM address is recorded in the correspondence table 106 of the user database 107 (step S407). If it exists, the corresponding IM address is returned to the address conversion unit 110, and the address conversion unit 110 registers the correspondence information between the returned IM address and the destination telephone number in the cache 108 (step S408) and is returned. The IM address is returned to the control unit 108. On the other hand, if it does not exist, that is notified to the control unit 103 through the address conversion unit 110, and the control unit 103 discards the IM data received this time (step S410).

  When the destination IM address is set in the IM data (NO in step S404), or when the IM address is resolved from the telephone number and the IM address is returned because it is not set, the control unit 103 Using the IM address, the received IM data is converted into IM data in the reception format shown in FIG. 10B (step S409). Then, it is determined from the current presence data of each terminal managed by the presence manager 104 whether the presence of the terminal 2 having the IM address is online or offline (step S411). If the terminal 2 is online, the control unit 103 causes the transmission unit 105 to transmit IM data to the terminal 2 through the packet network 6 (step S412). If the terminal 2 is offline, the IM data is returned to the data buffer 102 (step S413). The IM data returned to the data buffer 102 is taken out again by the control unit 103 and transmitted to the terminal 2 when the terminal 2 comes online.

  Next, some specific usage examples of the present embodiment will be described.

1) Usage example 1
The terminal 1 is a mobile phone owned by the user “Suzuki”, and the terminal 2 is a mobile phone owned by the user “Tanaka”. Suzuki and Tanaka are both IM service users, and the user database 107 of the IM server 3 is compatible. In table 106, correspondence information between one's own telephone number and one's IM address is registered in advance. One morning, Suzuki made a phone call from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2 in Tanaka for emergency use, and Tanaka was in the train and was in the bag with Terminal 2 in manner mode. I didn't notice that I couldn't respond. Although the ringing tone is heard, Suzuki does not readily respond, so IM data including a message “Please urgently return TEL” is sent from the terminal 1 to the terminal 2 and goes on-hook. In the terminal 2, when an incoming call is received from Suzuki by voice communication, an incoming call history including the telephone number of Suzuki and the date and time of incoming call is recorded. When IM data is received, the telephone number added to the IM data and the incoming call are recorded. A match with a telephone number in the history is detected, and IM data is registered in the incoming call history. When Tanaka got out of the train, took out the terminal 2 from his bag and checked the incoming call history, he received a phone call from Suzuki while he was on the train, and IM data “Urgently, please call me back” is registered. I decided that it was an urgent requirement, so I immediately called Suzuki and asked about the requirement. In a similar situation, if there is only an incoming call history with the incoming date and time and the caller's phone number, Suzuki cannot determine the urgency of the call from Tanaka, and therefore cannot contact immediately.

2) Usage example 2
That afternoon, Suzuki made a phone call from terminal 1 to terminal 2 in Tanaka. The reason why Tanaka could not respond was because the meeting was in progress, and therefore Tanaka transmitted IM data including a message “meeting” from the terminal 2 to the terminal 1. In the terminal 1, when a call is made to the terminal 2 of Tanaka, a call history including the phone number of Tanaka and the call date and time is recorded. When IM data is received, the call number added to the IM data and the call are added. A match with the telephone number in the history is detected, and IM data is registered in the outgoing call history. For this reason, when Suzuki tries to call Tanaka again and confirms the outgoing call history, he notices that IM data from Tanaka is being registered in the previous outgoing call history, so it seems to be inconvenienced. I decided to stop making calls for a while. In a similar situation, if there is only a transmission history of only the transmission date and time and the transmission telephone number, Tanaka cannot recognize that Suzuki is in a meeting and may call many times.

  Although the embodiments and examples of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above examples, and various other additions and modifications can be made. For example, in the above example, the user has selected whether or not to perform message communication during the call, but it has been set to automatically send a predetermined message when there is a call, or there is an incoming call It is also possible to set to send a predetermined message automatically. In the above example, IM is used as the message communication. However, any other type of message communication such as a short message service (SMS) can be used. Further, the communication terminal is not limited to a mobile terminal and may be a fixed terminal.
