Description

  The present invention relates to a telephone such as a mobile communication terminal used in, for example, a mobile phone system or a PHS (Personal Handyphone System), and more particularly to a telephone having a built-in electronic telephone directory.

  In recent years, mobile phone devices and PHS terminal devices have rapidly spread. This type of mobile communication terminal apparatus is provided with various functions in order to improve ease of use, and one of the functions is an electronic telephone book.

  The electronic telephone directory is, for example, a personal or company or group name information and its telephone number that are stored in a memory in association with each other, and is displayed on a display by a user operation. When the user makes a call, first the name information of the calling party is selected from the displayed name information, and the phone number corresponding to the name information is displayed, and then the desired phone number is selected from the phone number. By making a selection and performing a call operation, a call is made to a desired call destination. Therefore, it is possible to make a call more easily and quickly than when manually inputting all digits of the telephone number.

  By the way, if the number of destination information registered in the electronic telephone book increases, it becomes difficult to display these destination information collectively on the display. This problem is particularly noticeable in a terminal having a small display such as a mobile phone or a PHS phone.

Therefore, the conventional apparatus employs, for example, the following search means. That is, the destination information registered in the electronic telephone directory is classified into “a”, “ka”, “sa”... Then, the classified destination information is sequentially scroll-displayed on the display unit by operating the cursor key, for example, and when the cursor is displayed on the target destination information, the selection designation key is operated to specify the destination. (For example, see Patent Document 1).
JP-A-9-186760

  However, such a conventional search means requires time and effort to move the cursor for selecting and specifying the desired destination information, and the destination information search operation is troublesome. In order to improve the operability problem, there is a technique that makes it possible to search for destination information relatively easily by providing a special switch of a rotation operation type. However, in this case, there is a problem that a special switch must be provided and the apparatus becomes expensive.

  Furthermore, when the number of registrations in the electronic phone book increases, a large number of key operations are required for searching even if classification is performed as in the prior art.

  The present invention has been made paying attention to the above circumstances, and its purpose is to make a phone call of a person who makes a call accurately and well in a short time and without providing any special input means. An object of the present invention is to provide a telephone having an excellent search operability in an electronic telephone directory by making it possible to search a number quickly.

  In order to achieve the above object, one aspect of the present invention is a telephone equipped with an electronic telephone book, wherein the reading means can be input separately from the name information, Storage means for storing the destination name information, reading information, and telephone number information input by the input means in association with each other and a control means are provided. When the control means searches the stored electronic phone book information and displays the search result, the control means searches based on the reading information, and the reading information is displayed without displaying the searched reading information. When the name information including the name information associated with is controlled to be displayed, and one of the displayed name information lists is selected and a predetermined operation is performed, the selected name is displayed. The telephone number information associated with the information is controlled to be displayed.

  Therefore, according to one aspect of the present invention, it is possible to quickly and accurately search a telephone number of a person who makes a call accurately and well without providing a special input means in a simple and short time for an intended destination. A telephone having excellent search operability can be provided.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a system in which a telephone according to an embodiment of the present invention is used. CS1 to CSn denote PHS base stations, and PS1 to PSm denote mobile communication terminal apparatuses.

  Each of the PHS base stations CS1 to CSn is geographically distributed in the PHS service area as shown in FIG. 2, for example, and forms a general call area E1, E2, E3,. ing. Mobile communication terminal apparatuses PS1 to PSm are connected to each PHS base station CS1 to CSn via a radio line. At this time, the TDMA-TDD scheme is used as a radio access scheme between the PHS base stations CS1 to CSn and the mobile communication terminal apparatuses PS1 to PSm.

  On the other hand, each of the PHS base stations CS1 to CSn is connected to a public network INW. The public network INW has an ISDN and an I ′ interface network for accommodating the PHS base stations CS1 to CSn in the ISDN.

  An access server AS of a personal computer carrier is connected to the public network INW. The access server AS is connected to a content server TS of a personal computer carrier. This content server TS is used to download various service information such as news and weather forecasts for subscribers, and to perform mail services.

  The access server TS is connected to the Internet ITN. A large number of WWW (World-Wide Web) servers WS1, WS2,... Are connected to the Internet ITN. The mobile communication terminal apparatuses PS1 to PSm can obtain desired Internet information by accessing the WWW servers WS1, WS2,... Via the public network INW and the access server AS.

  Further, a selective call control station SCS is connected to the public network INW, and a plurality of selective call base stations BS1 to BSi are connected to the selective call control station SCS. The selective call control station SCS receives calls from the base stations BS1 to BSi when a call request to the selective call receiver PB comes from a wired telephone (not shown) connected to the public network INW or the mobile communication terminal devices PS1 to PSm. A call signal is transmitted to call the selective call receiver PB. At the same time, when message information is transmitted from the caller's wired telephone or mobile communication terminals PS1 to PSm, the message information is inserted into the call signal and transmitted.

  By the way, the mobile communication terminal apparatuses PS1 to PSm are configured as follows. FIG. 3 is a front view showing the appearance.

The display unit 54 is a liquid crystal (LCD) display. In addition, 11 is an antenna, 43 is a speaker for receiving, and 44 is a microphone for transmitting.

  On the other hand, FIG. 6 is a block diagram showing a circuit configuration of the mobile communication terminal apparatuses PS1 to PSm. The mobile communication terminal apparatuses PS1 to PSm include a radio unit 1, a modem unit 2, a TDMA unit 3, and a call unit 4, and further include a control unit 5 and a memory unit 6. Reference numeral 7 denotes a power supply unit, which includes a battery 71 and a power supply circuit 72 that generates a predetermined operating voltage based on its output.

  Radio carrier signals arriving from the PHS base stations CS <b> 1 to CSn are received by the antenna 11 and then input to the reception circuit (RX) 13 via the high frequency switch (SW) 12 of the radio unit 1. In the receiving circuit 13, the received radio carrier signal is mixed with a local oscillation signal generated from the frequency synthesizer 14 and frequency-converted into a reception intermediate frequency signal or a reception baseband signal. The local oscillation frequency generated from the frequency synthesizer 14 follows channel information instructed by the control unit 5. The radio unit 1 is provided with a received electric field strength detector (RSSI) 16. The RSSI detector 16 detects the received electric field strength of the radio carrier signal arriving from the PHS base stations CS1 to CSn, and the detected value (RSSI) is notified to the control unit 5 in order to determine whether the radio communication channel is free. The

  The reception intermediate frequency signal or reception baseband signal output from the reception circuit 13 is input to the digital demodulation circuit (DEM) 21 of the modem unit 2. The digital demodulation circuit 21 performs digital demodulation of the received intermediate frequency signal or the received baseband signal, thereby reproducing the TDMA signal.

  The TDMA decoding circuit 31 of the TDMA unit 3 follows the instruction of the control unit 5 from the TDMA signal output from the digital demodulation circuit 21 with the control data or digital speech signal inserted in the time slot assigned to the own station. To separate. Among these, the control data is taken into the control unit 5, and the control unit 5 performs call control and the like based on the control data. For example, if the control data is an incoming message addressed to itself, the sounder 51 or the vibrator 52 is driven to notify the incoming call.

  On the other hand, the digital call signal is input to the call unit 4. The call unit 4 includes an ADPCM transcoder 41 and a PCM codec 42. In the ADPCM transcoder 41, the decoding process of the digital speech signal is performed. In the PCM codec 42, the decoded digital call signal is converted into an analog call signal. The analog call signal is amplified by a receiving amplifier (not shown) and then output from the receiving speaker 43.

  On the other hand, the transmission voice signal input to the microphone 44 for transmission is amplified by a transmission amplifier (not shown) in the communication unit 4 and then converted into a digital transmission signal by the PCM codec 42. The digital transmission signal is encoded by the ADPCM transcoder 41 and then input to the TDMA encoding circuit 32 of the TDMA unit 3.

  In the TDMA encoding circuit 32, the digital speech signal output from the ADPCM transcoder 41 is inserted into a transmission channel slot assigned to itself among each slot of the TDMA signal. The TDMA signal created by the TDMA encoding circuit 32 is input to a digital modulation circuit (MOD) 22. The control data output from the control unit 5 is also inserted into the control channel slot in the TDMA signal in the TDMA encoding circuit 32 and then input to the digital modulation circuit 22. In the digital modulation circuit 22, intermediate frequency signal digital modulation is performed based on the TDMA signal, and the modulated wave signal is input to the transmission circuit (TX) 15 of the radio unit 1.

  The transmission circuit 15 mixes the modulated wave signal with a local oscillation signal generated from the synthesizer 14 to up-convert it to a radio carrier frequency, and further amplifies it to a predetermined transmission power level. Then, this radio carrier signal is transmitted from the antenna 11 to the PHS base station via the high frequency switch 12.

  Further, the mobile communication terminal devices PS1 to PSm of the present embodiment transmit / receive short mails to / from other mobile communication terminal devices PS1 to PSm, or on the content server TS of the personal computer carrier or the Internet ITN. It has a function of transmitting / receiving information data to / from the WWW servers WS1, WS2 and WS3.

  That is, the transmission short mail or the transmission information data is created in the control unit 5 by the user's key input operation. The created transmission short mail or transmission information data is input from the control unit 5 to the TDMA encoding circuit 32 via the data I / F 56, and is inserted into the transmission channel slot allocated thereto. Thereafter, as in the case of voice communication, the signal is modulated by the digital modulation circuit 22 and then transmitted from the transmission circuit 15 via the antenna 11.

  On the other hand, short mail or information data sent from the mobile communication terminal devices PS1 to PSm or the content server TS is received by the receiving circuit 11 via the antenna 11, and then demodulated by the digital demodulating circuit 21 to be TDMA decoding circuit. 31. Then, after being separated from the TDMA signal by the TDMA decoding circuit 31, the data is taken into the control unit 5 through the data I / F 56, and is stored in the mail storage area of the memory unit 61 and controlled by the control unit 5. 54.

  Furthermore, the mobile communication terminal devices PS1 to PSm of the present embodiment also have a calling function and a message transmission function for the selective call receiver PB. That is, the transmission message is created in the control unit 5 by the user's key input operation. The message data is converted into control data for DTMF generation by the control unit 5 at the time of transmission, and is supplied to the DTMF generation circuit 55. The DTMF generation circuit 55 generates a DTMF signal according to the control data and inputs this DTMF signal to the PCM codec 42. Thereafter, like the transmitted voice signal, the DTMF signal is encoded by the PCM codec 42 and the ADPCM transcoder 41, and then inserted into the transmission channel slot by the TDMA encoding circuit 32, and then converted into a modulation signal by the digital modulation circuit 22. The signal is converted and transmitted from the transmission circuit 15 via the antenna 11.

  Incidentally, the memory unit 6 is provided with an area (phone book memory) 61 for storing a telephone book. FIG. 5 shows the configuration. In other words, the telephone directory memory 61 includes a first storage area 61a that stores name information and a second storage area 61b that stores directory information. Further, these storage areas 61a and 61b include a plurality of general folders provided in association with the respective rows of “a”, “ka”, “sa”, etc., and one specific folder for storing specific destination information. The first letter of the name is divided into one alphanumeric folder for storing destination information composed of alphanumeric characters.

  In the first storage area 61a, there are provided a column for storing the name of the caller and a column for storing the reading for reading. In these columns, the name of the callee and the furigana are stored in association with each other. The The name is composed of a character string including kanji. The display reading is composed of a hiragana character string.

  In the second storage area, the telephone number of the caller is stored in association with the name and display reading. Note that the address is stored when the caller is a personal computer communication terminal or server. These telephone numbers and address information are called directory information. A plurality of directory information can be registered for each name.

  The control unit 5 has, for example, a microcomputer as a main control unit. As main control functions according to the present invention, a telephone book registration control means 5a, a bookmark display control means 5b, a telephone book display control means 5c, It has.

  The phone book registration control means 5a stores the name of the caller, the display reading and the phone number input by the key input operation in the phone book registration mode in the phone book memory 61. Each of the input information is stored as a key in each of the “a”, “ka”, “sa”... Row folders. If a special character other than hiragana or katakana is added to the head position of the display reading, the input information corresponding to this is stored in the specific folder. Further, the destination information whose name begins with alphanumeric characters is stored in the alphanumeric folder.

  The bookmark display control means 5b causes the display unit 54 to display bookmarks respectively representing the specific folder, the alphanumeric folder and the plurality of general folders provided in the telephone book memory 61 in the telephone book display mode. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, the bookmark has 12 characters consisting of “V” “a” “ka” “sa” “ta” “na” “ha” “ma” “ya” “ra” “wa” “English”. Consists of.

  In the phone book display mode, the phone book display control means 5 c stores the bookmark and the caller information being displayed in the phone book memory 61 in accordance with the combination operation of each key on the dial keypad 531 and the cursor key 532. The received destination information is selectively read out from the corresponding folder and displayed on the display unit 54.

Next, the operation of the apparatus configured as described above will be described.
First, registration of destination information in the telephone directory is performed as follows. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the control procedure and control contents. That is, in the telephone directory registration mode, the control unit 5 first waits for input of a display reading in step 6a, and when the user inputs a key for the display reading in this state, the input display reading is input to the buffer in step 6b. Import to the reading area for display. Next, the control unit 5 waits for input of a name in step 5c, and when the user inputs a name in this state, the input name is taken into the name area of the buffer in step 6d. Further, in step 6f, input of a telephone number is awaited. When the user inputs a telephone number or an address here, these are taken into the telephone number area of the buffer in step 6g.

  On the other hand, it is assumed that the user skips the name input operation and inputs a telephone number. In this case, the control unit 5 determines that the input of the name is omitted, and proceeds to step 6e, where the display reading input previously is stored in the name area of the buffer. In step 6g, the telephone number or address input by the user is taken into the telephone number area of the buffer.

  Note that when there are a plurality of telephone numbers to be registered, the processes in steps 6f and 6g are repeated. When the input of the telephone number is completed and the user performs a key operation for registration, the control unit 5 detects this operation in step 6h, and thereafter stores the input information in the telephone directory memory 61. I do.

  That is, the control unit 5 first determines in step 6i whether or not a special character is added to the input reading for display. If it has been added, the process proceeds to step 6j where the input information in the buffer is stored in a specific folder. For example, if @ or *, which is a special character, is added to the beginning of the input display reading, such as (@Osaka Ichiro) or (* Tokyo Hanako) shown in FIG. Store information in a specific folder.

  On the other hand, if no special character is added at the head position of the display reading, the process proceeds to step 6k, where the input information of the buffer is stored in the corresponding line folder. For example, (Aoki Oo) shown in FIG. 5 is sorted and stored in a folder of “A”, and (Kawakami × O) is sorted into a folder of “Ka”.

  Further, as described above, when the input of the name is omitted, the display reading is stored in the name column. For example, in (Asaijiro) and (Kitamoto Oo) shown in FIG. 5, these display readings are stored as names in the name column.

  Finally, in step 61, the control unit 5 sorts the folders in the telephone directory memory 61 in which the input information is newly stored in the order of the Japanese syllabary using the display reading as a key. Thus, the registration of the destination information in the telephone directory memory 61 is completed.

  Next, a display control operation when searching for desired destination information from the telephone directory memory 61 will be described. FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the control procedure and control contents.

  When the phone book display mode is designated, the control unit 5 first displays a bookmark on the display unit 54 in step 8a and reads out the head portion of the destination information, that is, the destination information of a specific folder from the phone book memory 61. To display. At this time, the bookmark is focused on “V” of the specific folder, and the destination information is focused on the top information. FIG. 9 shows an example of the display result.

  Now, assume that the user operates the cursor key 532 in the left-right direction in this state. Then, after determining that the operation key is a cursor key in Step 8b, the control unit 5 determines the operation direction in Step 8c, and proceeds to Step 8d. In step 8d, the focus on the bookmark is moved. Thereafter, in step 8e, the destination information is read from the head of the folder corresponding to the destination character and displayed on the display unit 54.

  Then, it is assumed that the user operates the cursor key 532 in the up / down direction in a state where the destination information of the desired line is displayed. If it does so, the control part 5 will transfer to step 8f from step 8c, and will move the focus of the transmission destination information currently displayed here to an up-down direction. At this time, when the cursor key 532 is operated further downward while the focus is on the lowermost destination information, the undisplayed destination information following the lowermost destination information is read and scrolled. Is done.

The desired destination information is displayed by operating the cursor key 532 in the vertical direction. When the user presses the yes key 533 in a state where the destination information is focused, the detailed information of the destination information is displayed in the phone book. It is read from the memory 61 and displayed on the display unit 54. FIG. 10 and FIG. 11 show an example of the display result, and it is a case where one of the transmission destination information on the “A” line is selected.
Thus, the search for the destination information according to the operation of the cursor key 532 is performed.

  On the other hand, the apparatus of this embodiment can search and display desired destination information by a combination operation of each key on the dial keypad 531 and the cursor key 532.

  That is, each row folder of the telephone directory memory 61 is associated with each key of the dial keypad 531 in a one-to-one correspondence in advance. FIG. 7 shows an example of the correspondence. A table representing this correspondence relationship is stored in the memory unit 6.

  Suppose that the user has operated a numeric key associated with a line including desired destination information. Then, the control unit 5 determines in step 8b that the operation key is a numeric key, and then proceeds to step 8g. In this step 8g, the destination information is read from the head of the row folder corresponding to the operated numeric key. It is displayed on the display unit 54.

For example, when the user presses the numeric key “3”, it recognizes that the row folder corresponding to the numeric key “3” is the folder of the “sa” row based on the correspondence table shown in FIG. The destination information is read from the head of this “sa” line folder and displayed on the display unit 54. Similarly, when the numeric key “7” is pressed, the corresponding “ma” line folder is selected, and the destination information is read from the head of the “ma” line folder and displayed on the display unit 54. Display.
That is, the search destination information of each line can be searched and displayed easily and in a short time by pressing the corresponding numeric key once.

  It is also assumed that the user presses again the number key corresponding to the currently displayed row folder. Then, if the control unit 5 determines in step 8h that the operation key is the same numeric key as the previous time, the control unit 5 proceeds to step 8i, and skips the display start position of the destination information of the currently displayed line to the next stage. For example, it is assumed that the numeric key “3” is pressed again while the destination information of the “sa” line is displayed. In this case, the second line of the “sa” line, that is, the destination information whose name begins with “shi” is read and displayed.

  When the same numeric key “3” is pressed three times, the control unit 5 detects this at step 8j and returns to step 8i. Here, the third row of the “sa” line, that is, the first letter of the name is “S”. The destination information starting with “” is read out and displayed. Similarly, every time the same numeric key is pressed once, the display start position of the destination information on the “sa” line is sequentially skipped to the next level. If the same number key is further operated while the highest destination information is displayed, the display position returns to the top of the first destination information. That is, the search for the column position within each line can be performed easily and in a short time by re-operating the numeric keys.

  Then, the desired destination information of the desired line is displayed, and when the cursor key 532 is operated in the vertical direction to focus on this information, the control unit 5 goes from step 8h or 8j to step 8f through step 8c. The focus position is moved back and forth here. When the user presses the yes key 533 in a state where the desired destination information is in focus, the detailed information of the destination information is read from the telephone directory memory 61 and displayed on the display unit 54.

In the state where the destination information of an arbitrary line is displayed, when another numeric key that does not correspond to the displayed line is operated, the control unit 5 returns from step 8h or 8j to step 8g, Here, the destination information is read from the top of the row folder corresponding to the operated numeric key and displayed.
Thus, the search for the destination information corresponding to the combination operation of each key of the dial keypad 531 and the cursor key 532 is performed.

  As described above, in this embodiment, a bookmark representing each line folder in the telephone directory memory 61 is created and displayed on the display unit 54, and each character of the bookmark is associated with each key on the dial keypad 531. When this numeric key is operated, the destination information is read from the head of the corresponding row folder and displayed on the display unit 54. For this reason, it is possible to search for a line including the desired destination information by a single operation of the numeric keys, thereby making it possible to easily and quickly search for the desired destination information.

  In addition, when the number key corresponding to the currently displayed line is continuously pressed, the second and subsequent stages of the destination information of the currently displayed line, for example, the “sa” line, according to the number of operations. If there is any, “c”, “c”, “c”, etc. are cued. For this reason, in addition to the search for each row, the search for each stage in the row can be performed easily and in a short time by operating the numeric keys.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the focus movement on the bookmark and the focus movement on the destination information can be performed step by step by operating the cursor key 532, a fine search can also be performed.

  That is, according to the apparatus of this embodiment, the desired destination information can be easily and accurately searched with a small number of operations by a combination operation of each key of the dial keypad 531 and the cursor key 532. Can do.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, when registering the destination information, as shown in FIG. 6, the display reading can be input as an arbitrary reading separately from the name and with a special character added. Sorted in alphabetical order using the displayed reading as a key, and stored in a folder. Then, when displaying the stored destination information, the destination information stored in the selected folder is displayed in a list in a state sorted in alphabetical order using the display reading as a key. At this time, the reading for display is not displayed as shown in FIG.

  The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, in the above embodiment, each key of the dial keypad 531 is associated with each character of the bookmark, and when this key is operated, the focus position on the bookmark is moved and the destination information of the corresponding row folder is displayed. Read and display. Not limited to this, each key of the dial keypad 531 is associated with a plurality of stages constituting each line, and when the key of the dial keypad 531 is operated, the process skips to the corresponding stage of the displayed line. You may comprise so that cueing may be performed.

  Further, in the embodiment, each key of the dial keypad 532 is sequentially associated with each character of the bookmark, that is, each row folder, as shown in FIG. 7, but the most frequently searched row folder among the row folders. An easy-to-remember key such as “1” may be assigned. In short, a function for arbitrarily setting the correspondence of each key of the dial keypad 532 to each row folder according to the user's desire may be provided.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the representative characters of each line to be posted in the bookmark are the first-stage characters such as “a”, “ka”, “sa”, etc., but the second-stage and subsequent characters may be used. In the above embodiment, the destination information is classified for each row of the Japanese syllabary. However, the destination information may be classified for each column. In this case, the representative character of each column is posted in the bookmark.

  In addition, the configuration of the bookmark, the configuration of the telephone directory memory, the control procedure and control contents of the telephone directory registration control means and the telephone directory display control means, the type and configuration of the mobile communication terminal device, and the like deviate from the gist of the present invention. Various modifications can be made without departing from the scope.
