Since it is determined that there is, for example, if the home is set as the set position, a warning notification can be given when the set position is left, such as when going out of the house.

  According to the invention described in claim 4, in addition to having the same effect as that of the invention described in claim 1, it is determined that a warning should be generated when the current balance reaches a set amount or less. From, for example, it becomes possible to warn of insufficient balance.

  According to the invention described in claim 5 (second invention), the set amount set in advance as a reference for warning that the current electronic money balance has decreased is stored and managed, and this warning is generated. In a state where a facility type set in advance for specifying the type of facility is stored and managed in association with the set amount, the facility type indicating the type of the facility acquired from the facility side using electronic money is set in advance. It is determined whether there is a match with the facility type that has been set, and when these matches are detected, the current electronic money balance is compared with the set amount to determine whether a warning has occurred and generate a warning. When it is determined that it should be, a warning notification that the electronic money balance has decreased has been made. Therefore, when using a facility, it is properly confirmed that the electronic money balance has decreased according to the type of facility. It is possible to tell, for example, or to prepare the cash in the case of insufficient funds, it is possible to use the facilities from the charge electronic money by visiting the financial institutions. In addition, if different set amounts are set for each type of facility, such as “1000 yen or less” for convenience stores and “5000 yen or less” for department stores, the correspondence between facility types and amounts Warning notification according to the above becomes possible.

  According to the invention described in claim 6 (third invention), the set amount set in advance as a reference for warning that the current electronic money balance has decreased is stored and managed, and this warning is generated. In a state where a preset set time for specifying the time is stored and managed in association with the set amount, the current time is compared with the set time, and when the current time reaches the set time, the current time By comparing the electronic money balance with the set amount, it is determined whether or not a warning has occurred, and when it is determined that a warning should be generated, a warning notification that the electronic money balance has decreased has been made. , You can warn at the appropriate time that the balance of electronic money is low, for example, just before going out to lunch, you will be warned that the balance is 1,000 yen or less, so you can prepare cash, It is possible to go out to lunch from the charge electronic money by visiting the financial institutions. If different set amounts are set for each time, such as “8000 yen or less” corresponding to 12:00 and “5000 yen or less” corresponding to 16:00, the time and amount Warning notification according to the correspondence can be performed.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

This electronic money payment function constitutes an electronic wallet management function, which stores and manages the current electronic money balance and manages the deposit and withdrawal of electronic money.
Before detailed description of the features of this embodiment, the hardware configuration of this embodiment will be described below.

  The CPU 1 is a central processing unit that controls the overall operation of the mobile phone device according to various programs in the storage unit 2. The storage unit 2 is a non-volatile memory (internal memory), which is configured by, for example, a flash memory, and has a program area and a data area. In the program area, operations shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 described later are performed. A program for realizing the present embodiment is stored according to the procedure. The data area of the storage unit 2 stores a position table, a facility table, a time table, and the like which will be described later. The recording medium 3 is a detachable portable memory that supplies photographed image data, various types of data, and programs to the outside. The recording medium 3 includes, for example, smart media and an IC card. The memory 4 is an internal memory having a work area, and is composed of, for example, a DRAM (Direct Random Access Memory), an SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM), or the like.

  The telephone communication unit 5 takes in a signal from the reception side of the transmission / reception duplexer connected to the antenna 5A and demodulates it into a reception baseband signal, and then outputs audio data from the audio speaker 6. In addition, the telephone communication unit 5 encodes the audio data input from the audio microphone 7 into a transmission baseband signal, and then provides the transmission baseband signal to the transmission side of the transmission / reception duplexer for transmission from the antenna 5A. On the other hand, the display data received via the telephone communication unit 5 by the electronic mail function and the Internet connection is given to the main display unit 8 such as an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) and displayed and output.

  The main display unit 8 displays character information, TV images, various messages, and the like with high quality. In addition to the main display unit 8, a sub display unit 9 is provided on the back side of the apparatus main body. Current date and time, simple messages, icons, etc. are displayed. The notification unit 10 includes a speaker for notification such as an incoming notification, an LED (light emitting diode), and a vibration motor. The notification unit 10 performs an incoming notification when a call / mail is received or is driven when a warning alarm is issued. The key operation unit 11 includes various push button type keys and performs dial input, character input, command input, and the like. The CPU 1 executes processing according to a key input signal from the key operation unit 11.

  The non-contact IC processing unit 12 constitutes an electronic money payment function, has a memory unit 12A and a coil antenna unit 12B, and transmits / receives data to / from a transaction terminal 21 with an IC reader / writer by weak radio waves. . The memory unit 12A includes a money balance memory M1, a usage history memory M2, and the like. The coil antenna unit 12B transmits and receives radio waves, and an electromotive force electromagnetically induced by the received radio waves is generated in the contactless IC processing unit 12. Power source. Here, at the time of payment with electronic money, for example, when the device main body is closed and held over the transaction terminal 21 as shown in FIG. 2, data is transmitted and received between the non-contact IC processing unit 12 and the transaction terminal 21. The contents of the money balance memory M1 are updated according to the current payment amount (billed amount), and the current transaction information is additionally registered in the usage history memory M2.

  A GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver 13 uses a satellite and a ground control station to receive a current position (longitude and latitude) that is strictly measured from the difference in arrival times of radio waves from a plurality of satellites. For example, the CPU 1 monitors the current user position (the position of the mobile phone device) while accessing and acquiring the GPS measurement position by accessing the GPS receiving unit 13 every 1 minute interval. In this embodiment, the GPS receiver 13 is used. However, the current position of the user may be measured from the difference in the arrival time of radio waves with respect to a plurality of terrestrial stations or the positional relationship.

  The near field communication unit 14 performs near field communication with an external device by a Bluetooth communication method using weak radio waves.

The facility type transmitted and output from the facility type transmitting device 22 is received and acquired. At this time, the CPU 1 recognizes the type of facility used based on this facility type. The facility type may be transmitted and received between the short-range communication unit 14 and the facility type transmitting device 22 by an infrared communication method.

FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining a position table 15 provided to warn at an appropriate position (location) that the current electronic money balance has decreased. It is set arbitrarily by the operation.
The position table 15 is configured to have each item of “set position”, “set amount”, and “in / out category”, and is arbitrarily set in advance as a reference for warning that the current electronic money balance has decreased. The “set amount” is stored and managed, and the “set position” that is arbitrarily set in advance to identify the position where the warning is generated is stored and managed in association with the “set amount” and “in / out category”. ing.

  In the example shown in the figure, “setting position = home”, “setting amount = 20,000 yen”, and “in / out classification = out” are set in the first record, and “setting position = company”, “setting” are set in the second record. This shows a case where “amount = 5,000 yen” and “in / out classification = on” are set. “On” in the “entry / exit section” indicates that a warning should be issued when the current position acquired from the GPS receiver 14 matches the corresponding “set position”, that is, when the user comes to the set position. Show. “Out” indicates that a warning notification should be given when the current position changes from a state that matches the set position to a mismatched state, that is, when the set position is left.

FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining the facility table 16 provided to appropriately warn that the electronic money balance has decreased according to the type of facility at the time of use of the facility. These are arbitrarily set by user operations.
The facility table 16 is configured to have items of “facility type” and “set amount”, and “set amount” arbitrarily set in advance as a reference for warning that the current electronic money balance has decreased. In addition to storing and managing, the “facility type” arbitrarily set in advance to specify the type of facility that generates this warning is stored and managed in association with the “set amount”. In the example shown in the figure, “facility type = convenience store”, “set amount = 2,000 yen” in the first record, “facility type = department”, “set amount = 50,000 yen” in the second record, In this example, “facility type = bar” and “set amount = 10,000 yen” are set.

FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining a time table 17 provided for warning at an appropriate time that the electronic money balance has decreased, and the contents of the time table 17 can be arbitrarily set by a user operation. Is set.
The time table 17 stores and manages a “set amount” arbitrarily set in advance as a reference for warning that the current electronic money balance has decreased, and specifies in advance the time at which this warning occurs. Arbitrarily set “set time” is stored and managed in association with “set amount”. In the illustrated example, “time = 8: 00”, “set amount = 10,000 yen” in the first record, “set time = 12: 00”, “set amount = 8,000 yen” in the second record, 3 In this example, “set time = 18: 00” and “set amount = 5,000 yen” are set in the record, and “set time = 21: 00” and “set amount = 2,000 yen” are set in the fourth record. In the time table 17, the correct time (00:00) is set as the “set time”.

  Next, the operation concept of the mobile phone device in this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. Here, each function described in these flowcharts is stored in the form of a readable program code, and operations according to the program code are sequentially executed. In addition, the operation according to the above-described program code transmitted via the transmission medium can be sequentially executed. In other words, in addition to the recording medium, an operation peculiar to this embodiment can be executed by using a program / data supplied externally via a transmission medium.

6 and 7 are flowcharts showing the overall operation of the mobile phone device that starts executing when the power is turned on.
First, the CPU 1 reads out and displays a predetermined standby image in the standby state (step S1 in FIG. 6), checks whether or not there is an incoming call or mail (step S2), and detects an incoming call or incoming mail. The incoming call corresponding process is executed to notify the incoming call from the notification unit 10, and the call process or the received mail storage process is executed (step S3). And it returns to step S1 and will be in a standby state.

  In addition, the CPU 1 accesses the non-contact IC processing unit 12 to monitor whether it is electronic money payment (step S4). The transaction amount (billed amount) is acquired via the step (step S5), the current balance is read from the money balance memory M1, and the transaction amount is compared with the electronic money balance (step S6). Then, it is checked whether or not full payment is possible with electronic money, that is, whether or not the balance can be updated (step S7).

  Here, if it is impossible to update (no payment in full with electronic money) (NO in step S7), an alarm notification of insufficient balance is performed (step S8). The balance is updated by writing the value obtained by subtracting the transaction amount in the money balance memory M1 (step S9), and the completion of the transaction is notified (notified) (step S10). This alarm notification of insufficient balance is performed by driving the notification unit 10 to generate and output an alarm sound and to drive the LED to blink, and also to display and output a warning message on the sub display unit 9 (the same applies hereinafter). . Thereafter, the process returns to the first step S1 and enters a standby state.

  Further, the CPU 1 monitors whether the GPS acquisition timing has come (for example, every 3 seconds) (step S11), and if it is the GPS acquisition timing, the GPS receiving unit 13 is accessed to access the current position. Information is acquired (step S12). Then, the position table 15 is searched based on the current position information, and it is checked whether or not the “set position” corresponding to the current position is set in the position table 15 (step S13). If it is set, it is checked whether or not “ON” is set by referring to the corresponding “in / out section” (step S14).

  Now, in the case of the position table 15 shown in FIG. 3, when coming to the company, when being at the company, it corresponds to the second record, but the “entry / exit classification” of the second record is “input” ( In step S14, “YES” is read, and “set amount = 5,000 yen” corresponding to the current position is read (step S17), and the current balance is read from the money balance memory M1 to check whether the current balance is less than the set amount (step S18). ). Here, if the current balance is less than the “set amount” corresponding to the current position (YES in step S18), a prediction alarm indicating that there is a high possibility that a shortage of balance will occur depending on the future usage (step S19). ).

  On the other hand, if “out” is set as the “in / out category” (NO in step S14), the current position is temporarily stored in the work area of the memory 4 as the next check position (step S15). For example, in the case of the position table 15 shown in FIG. 3, when the user is at home, there is a “setting position” corresponding to the current position, but the “entry / exit” is “out”, so the current position is set. Temporarily store the current position (home position) as the next check position in order to detect the timing when the position changes from the state that matches the position to the state that does not match, that is, the timing when the user leaves the house. Keep it.

  When it is detected that there is no “set position” corresponding to the current position at the subsequent GPS acquisition timing (NO in step S13), it is checked whether or not the next check position described above is stored in the memory 4 ( Step S16). If it is immediately after going out of the house, “Home position” is temporarily stored as the next check position, so that “set amount = 20,000 yen” corresponding to the position is read (step S17), and the money balance memory The current balance is read from M1, and a prediction alarm of insufficient balance is notified on the condition that the current balance is less than the set amount (step S18) (step S19). Thereafter, the process returns to the first step S1 and enters a standby state.

  The CPU 1 accesses the short-range communication unit 14 to monitor the presence / absence of reception of short-range radio waves (step S20 in FIG. 7). When the short-range radio waves are received, the CPU 1 is installed near the entrance of department stores, supermarkets, and the like. It is checked whether the facility type is received from the facility type transmitting device 22 (step S21). Here, when data other than the facility type is received (NO in step S21), the process proceeds to the execution of the process corresponding to the received content (step S22), but when the facility type is received, it is based on this facility type. The facility table 16 is searched to check whether there is a corresponding “facility type” (step S23). As a result, if there is a corresponding facility type, the corresponding “set amount” is read from the facility table 16 (step S24), and the current balance is read from the money balance memory M1, and the current money balance is less than the set amount. It is checked whether there is any (step S25). Here, if the current balance is smaller than the “set amount” corresponding to the current facility (YES in step S25), a prediction alarm of insufficient balance is notified (step S26).

  In the standby state, the CPU 1 monitors whether or not the current time has reached the correct hour (00:00) (step S27) and monitors whether any key operation has been performed (step S30). ) When a key operation is performed, processing corresponding to the operation key (for example, mail creation processing) is executed (step S31). Further, when it is detected that the current time has reached the correct time (YES in step S27), the time table 17 is searched to check whether the current time is set in the time table 17 as the “set time” ( In step S28), if set, the "set amount" corresponding to the "set time" is read (step S29), the current balance is read from the money balance memory M1, and it is determined whether the current money balance is less than the set amount. Inspect (step S25), if the current balance is less than the “set amount” (YES in step S25), a prediction alarm of insufficient balance is notified (step S26).

  As described above, in this embodiment, the CPU 1 searches the position table 15 based on the current position acquired from the GPS receiver 13, and if the current position corresponds to the “set position” set in the position table 15. When the “balanced amount” associated with this “set position” is compared with the current balance and a warning should be issued, a balance shortage prediction alarm is notified, so the balance is reduced. Can be warned at an appropriate location such as the entrance of a department store. For example, if the balance is insufficient, cash can be prepared, or the facility can be used after going to a financial institution and charging electronic money. It becomes possible. In addition, since a different “set amount” is set for each “set position” such as “20,000 yen or less” corresponding to the home and “5000 yen or less” corresponding to the company, the position and amount A prediction alarm can be notified according to the correspondence.

  In this case, while the current position coincides with the “set position” in the position table 15, a prediction alarm of insufficient balance is issued, so that the vicinity of the entrance of a department store, a supermarket, etc. that is usually used is displayed. ", Warning notification can be performed at that position. In addition, if the vicinity of a financial institution that is in the middle of shopping, for example, is set as the “set position”, it is convenient when charging (paying) electronic money. In addition, when the current position changes from a state that matches the “set position” to a mismatched state, a prediction alarm of insufficient balance is notified. For example, if home is set as the “set position” Warning notification can be performed when the user leaves the “setting position” such as when going out from home. Further, since it is determined that a warning should be generated when the current balance reaches the “set amount” or less, it is possible to notify a prediction alarm of insufficient balance.

  The CPU 1 searches the facility table 16 based on the facility type acquired from the facility type transmitting device 22, and if it matches any “facility type” set in the facility table 16, the CPU 1 associates it with this “facility type”. Compared with the current “set amount” and the current balance, when a warning should be generated, a forecast alarm for insufficient balance is reported, so there is little balance depending on the type of facility when using the facility. For example, when the balance is insufficient, it is possible to prepare cash or go to a financial institution and charge electronic money before using the facility. In addition, for example, “1000 yen or less” corresponding to a convenience store, “5000 yen or less” corresponding to a department store, etc., a different set amount is set for each type of facility. Warning notification according to the correspondence relationship is possible.

  The CPU 1 searches the time table 17 based on the current time, and if the current time matches any “set time” set in the time table 17, the “set time” associated with the “set time” When the amount of money is compared with the current balance and a warning is to be generated, a prediction alarm of insufficient balance is notified, so that the balance can be warned at an appropriate time, for example, Just before going out for lunch, you will be warned that your balance is under 1,000 yen, so you can prepare cash or go to a financial institution to charge electronic money before going out for lunch. Also, since a different set amount is set for each time, such as “8000 yen or less” corresponding to 12:00 and “5000 yen or less” corresponding to 16:00, the time and amount Warning notification according to the correspondence relationship is possible.

In the above-described embodiment, the current money balance and the “set amount” are compared. As a result, when the current balance is less than the set amount, a shortage prediction alarm is notified. However, if the current balance is less than or equal to the set amount, or if the current balance is close to the set amount, a shortage prediction alarm may be notified.
In addition, the present invention is not limited to a mobile phone device with an electronic money payment function, and can be similarly applied to a mobile terminal device such as a PDA, an electronic camera, an electronic wristwatch, and a music player with an electronic money payment function.

  On the other hand, a recording medium (for example, a CD-ROM, a flexible disk, a RAM card, etc.) on which program codes for executing the above-described units are recorded may be provided to the computer. That is, a recording medium having a program code readable by a computer, a function of acquiring current position information, and a set amount set in advance as a reference for warning that the current electronic money balance has decreased And a function for storing and managing a preset set position in association with the set amount, and comparing the current position of the acquisition and the set position. To determine whether or not the current position is a warning generation position, and if it is a warning generation position, a function for determining whether or not a warning has occurred based on a comparison result between the current electronic money balance and the set amount, and a warning When it is determined that the electronic money balance should be generated, a computer recording a program for realizing a function of notifying that the electronic money balance has decreased Yuta may be adapted to provide a recording medium readable.

  In addition, it is a recording medium having a computer-readable program code, a facility for acquiring the facility type indicating the type of facility from the facility side using the electronic money, and that the current electronic money balance has decreased. A function for storing and managing a set amount set in advance as a reference for warning, and storing and managing a facility type set in advance to identify the type of facility that generates this warning in association with the set amount; , Determining whether the acquired facility type matches the set facility type, and when detecting the match, warn by comparing the current electronic money balance with the set amount A function for determining whether or not an occurrence has occurred, and a function for notifying that an electronic money balance has decreased when it is determined that a warning should be generated.
