  Next, the operation of the telephone directory sharing system according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. First, the control circuit 43 of each of the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C stores the phone book data A to C input from the user interface unit 41 in each storage circuit 46 (S101A to C). The control circuits 43 of the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C detect the phone book data A to C from the respective storage circuits 46 (S102A to C). Further, the control circuit 43 transmits the detected phone book data A to C to the communication device 20 (S103 to 105).

  Here, the operation (S101 to S105) of the wireless communication apparatus will be described in detail with reference to FIG. However, since the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C employ the same operation, only the operation of the wireless communication device 40A will be described here.

  The user stores new telephone directory data in the storage circuit 46 via the user interface circuit 41. Further, the user can edit the existing telephone directory data stored in the storage circuit 46 via the user interface circuit 41 (S200 and S201). Thereafter, the control circuit 43 searches the phone book data stored in the storage circuit 46 at regular intervals, and detects the phone book data A that has not received the approval process of the communication device 20 (S202). The control circuit 43 transmits the detected telephone directory data A to the communication device 20 (S203).

  The operation of the telephone directory sharing system according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 4 again. The control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 receives the phone book data A to C from the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C (S103 to S105). Subsequently, the control circuit 24 compares the approval conditions stored in the approval condition storage circuit 22 with the received telephone directory data A to C (S106). Here, it is assumed that the phone book data A and the phone book data B satisfy the approval condition, and the phone book data C does not satisfy the approval condition. In this case, the control circuit 24 deletes the phone book data C that does not satisfy the condition, and transmits the phone book data A and B that satisfy the condition to the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C (S107 and 108). Further, the control circuit 24 registers the phone book data A and B in the shared phone book storage circuit 23 (S109).

  Here, the operation (S106 to 109) of the communication device 20 will be described in detail with reference to FIG. The control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 receives the phone book data A to C from the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C (S210). Subsequently, the control circuit 24 compares the phone book data A with the approval conditions (S211). If the phone book data A satisfies the approval condition, the control circuit 24 temporarily holds the phone book data A (S216). On the other hand, when the telephone directory data A does not satisfy the approval condition, the control circuit 24 deletes the telephone directory data A (S212). In this embodiment, S211, S212, and S216 may be referred to as approval processing. Subsequently, the control circuit 24 checks whether there is any other received data to be compared with the approval condition (S213). If other received data to be compared with the approval condition remains, the control circuit 24 repeats S211 to 213 and S216. In the first embodiment, since the telephone book data B and C still remain, the control circuit 24 repeats S211, 212, S216, and 213 for the telephone book data B and C. Here, a case is considered where the phone book data A and the phone book data B satisfy the approval condition, and the phone book data C does not satisfy the approval condition. Therefore, the control circuit 24 temporarily holds the phone book data A and the phone book data B (S216), and deletes the phone book data C (S212). After confirming that there is no received data to be compared with the approval condition after deleting the phone book data C, the control circuit 24 shares the phone book data A and phone book data B that have been approved with the phone book. It transmits to all the radio | wireless communication apparatuses 40A thru | or 40C (S214). Further, the control circuit 24 stores the approved phone book data A and phone book data B in the shared phone book storage unit 23 (S215).

  Returning to FIG. 4, the operation of the telephone directory sharing system of this embodiment will be further described. The control circuit 43 of the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C receives the phone book data A and B from the communication device 20 via the transmission / reception circuit 44. Further, the control circuit 43 of the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C stores the received telephone directory data A and B in the shared telephone directory storage circuit 42 included in each storage circuit 46 (this operation is referred to as “registration”). (S110 to 112).

  One of the remarkable effects of the telephone directory sharing system according to the first embodiment is that when registering telephone directory data to be shared, it is confirmed whether the telephone directory data should be shared. An effect of preventing data from being shared with users can be obtained.

  Further, as one of the remarkable effects of the telephone directory sharing system according to the first embodiment, since the wireless communication apparatus holds the shared telephone directory, the wireless communication apparatus communicates with the other party registered in the shared telephone directory. It is also possible to obtain an effect that it is not necessary to connect to a communication device when performing.

In the first embodiment, the communication device 20 and the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C hold a shared phone book. However, the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C may be configured not to have a shared phone book, and the communication device 20 to hold the shared phone book. In this case, the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C connect to the communication device 20 when necessary, and obtain the phone book data from the shared phone book held by the communication device 20.
An operation of the telephone directory sharing system according to the first embodiment when the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C do not hold the shared telephone directory will be described. First, the control circuit 43 of the wireless communication devices 40 </ b> A to 40 </ b> C transmits phone book data to the communication device 20. The telephone directory data to be transmitted can be new or edited telephone directory data already included in the shared telephone directory circuit 20 of the communication device 20.

  When the control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 detects that the phone book data has been received from the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C, it performs an approval process on the received phone book data. The control circuit 24 compares the received telephone directory data with the approval conditions stored in the approval condition storage circuit 22. When the received phone book data satisfies the approval condition, the control circuit 24 registers the received phone book data in the shared phone book in the shared phone book storage circuit 23. On the other hand, when the received phone book data does not satisfy the approval condition, the control circuit 24 discards the received phone book data. The wireless communication devices 40A to 40C connect to the communication device 20 when necessary, and obtain the phone book data from the shared phone book held by the communication device 20.

  Here, the communication device 20 performs an approval process every time it receives telephone book data. However, the control circuit 24 may perform the approval process at regular intervals. Also, “when necessary” is when, for example, the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C communicate with a communication partner corresponding to the phone book data in the shared phone book.

  One of the remarkable effects of adopting such a configuration is that the wireless communication device does not have a shared phone book, so the phone book data registered in the shared phone book due to loss or theft of the wireless communication device. Can be prevented from leaking to an inappropriate third party.

  In the first embodiment, for example, an approval flag can be provided for each phone book data in order to discriminate between the phone book data approved by the communication device 20 and the phone book data that has not been approved. In this case, when approving the phone book data, the communication device 20 sets the approval flag to “approved” (for example, the characters “O” and “Done” are input to the approval flag) (FIG. 7, And FIG. 8). In addition, when the user edits the phone book data that has already been approved, the control circuit 43 of the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C returns the approval flag to “unapproved”. The control circuit 43 detects the phone book data for which the approval flag is set to “unapproved” in the shared phone book storage circuit 42, and thereby the phone book data that has not yet been approved by the communication device 20. Can be detected.

  A method for determining telephone directory data based on the approval flag will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 7 and FIG. However, FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 show only the configuration necessary for the description of the present invention.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining the phone book data held in the storage circuit 46 of each of the wireless communication devices 40A and 40C. Phone book data 601, 602, 611, 612, 603, and 604 are stored in the storage circuit 46 of the wireless communication device 40C. In addition, phone book data 601, 602, 611, 612, and 613 are stored in the storage circuit 46 of the wireless communication device 40A. Here, the approval flag of the phone book data 601, 602, 611, and 612 is set to “approved”. That is, the phone book data 601, 602, 611, and 612 are stored in the shared phone book storage circuit 42 in the storage circuit 46 of each of the wireless communication devices 40A and 40C. This means that the wireless communication devices 40A and 40C already share the phone book data 601, 602, 611, and 612. On the other hand, the approval flag of the phone book data 603, 604, and 612 is set to “unapproved”.

  The wireless communication devices 40A and 40C transmit the phone book data 603, 604, and 613 associated with the approval flag set to “unapproved” to the communication device 20.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining phone book data stored in the shared phone book storage circuit 23 of the communication device 20. Here, it is assumed that the phone book data 603 and 613 satisfy the approval condition, and the phone book data 604 does not satisfy the approval condition. The control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 receives the phone book data 603, 604, and 613 from the wireless communication devices 40A and 40C. The control circuit 24 deletes the phone book data 604 that does not satisfy the approval condition. Accordingly, the phone book data 604 is not shown in FIG. Further, the control circuit 24 sets the approval flag of the phone book data 603 and 613 that satisfies the approval condition to “approved”. Further, the control circuit 24 transmits telephone directory data 603 and 613 to the wireless communication devices 40A and 40C, respectively.

  The control circuits 43 of the wireless communication devices 40A and 40C receive the phone book data 603 and 613, respectively, and register them in the shared phone book storage circuit.

  As one of the remarkable effects by adopting such a configuration, the wireless communication device detects newly detected phone book data or edited phone book data from a plurality of phone book data, and detects the detected data. It is also possible to obtain an effect that it is possible to receive data approval processing.

  The method for discriminating between the phone book data approved by the communication device 20 and the phone book data not approved is not limited to the discrimination method described above, and the phone book data that has been approved and new or edited phone book data. It is possible to use various methods for discriminating between

  In the first embodiment, the control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 starts the approval process after receiving the phone book data from all of the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C. However, the control circuit 24 can start the approval process when the telephone book data is sent from at least one of the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C. Alternatively, the control circuit 24 can periodically perform the approval process regardless of the reception of the phone book data.

  In the first embodiment, when the phone book data is a compilation of the existing phone book data, the control circuit 43 of the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C does not necessarily need to transmit the phone book data itself to the communication device 20. Absent. For example, at least one of information that can specify telephone book data before editing, such as an identifier unique to each telephone book data, a telephone number, a name, an address, a company name, and a department name can be transmitted to the communication device 20. .

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment, the communication device 20 is not the newly registered phone book data but the phone book data already registered in the shared phone book storage circuit 23, and If the received phone book data satisfies the approval condition, the phone book data corresponding to the received phone book data is detected from the shared phone book storage circuit 23, and the received phone book data is overwritten on the detected phone book data. it can.

  Further, in the first embodiment, the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C are not registered in the shared phone book storage circuit 42, but are already registered in the shared phone book storage circuit 42. When the phone book data is edited, the control circuit 43 of the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C detects the phone book data corresponding to the received phone book data from the shared phone book storage circuit 42, and the detected phone book. The received phonebook data can be overwritten on the data.

  In the first embodiment, the control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 performs an approval process on all received phone book data, and then transmits the phone book data to all the wireless communication devices using the shared phone book. . However, the control circuit 24 can also transmit the approved phone book data to all the wireless communication devices using the shared phone book every time one phone book data is approved. In addition, the control circuit 24 does not necessarily need to send the approved phone book data to all the wireless communication devices using the shared phone book, and transmits the approved phone book data only to the selected wireless communication device. You can also.

  Further, in the first embodiment, the control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 performs the approval process by comparing the approval condition stored in the approval condition storage circuit 43 in advance with the received telephone directory data. However, an administrator may perform approval work. That is, the approval condition storage circuit 22 shown in FIG. 2 can be deleted, and the administrator can approve individual telephone book data via the user interface circuit 21.

  In the first embodiment, the communication device 20 voluntarily transmits the phone book data approved to the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C. However, at least one of the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C can spontaneously connect to the communication device 20 and download the approved phone book data from the shared phone book storage circuit 23 of the communication device 20. In this case, the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C do not necessarily need to download all of the approved phone book data, and can select and download only the necessary phone book data from the approved phone books. For example, in Example 1, when the communication device 20 transmits the approved phone book data to the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C, the wireless communication device 40A is approved for some reason (for example, insufficient radio wave reception). Consider a case where telephone book data could not be received. In this case, the wireless communication device 40A can spontaneously connect to the communication device 20 and download the approved phone book data.

  One of the remarkable effects of adopting such a configuration is that the wireless communication apparatus updates the telephone book data to be shared even when the telephone book data transmitted from the communication apparatus cannot be received for some reason. It is also possible to obtain an effect that is possible.

  Next, a method for adding or deleting a wireless communication apparatus using a shared telephone directory in the first embodiment will be described. In this case, the storage circuit 26 of the communication device 20 holds a shared telephone directory user list. The shared telephone directory user list is composed of information on wireless communication devices that use the shared telephone directory. The control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 determines a wireless communication device that transmits the approved phone book data based on the shared phone book user list.

  The wireless communication devices 40A to 40C have a shared telephone directory user editing function. The user can add information on a new shared phone book user (wireless communication device) to the shared phone book user list held by the communication device 20 via the user interface circuit 41. Further, the user can delete and edit the information of the shared phone book user registered in the shared phone book user list held by the communication device 20 via the user interface circuit 41. Here, the shared phone book user information includes information that can identify the shared phone book user, such as a name, a department name, a telephone number, and an e-mail address.

  Next, a specific operation of the above-described method will be described. Here, since the operations of the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C are the same, only the wireless communication device 40A will be described here. First, the addition and editing of shared phone book user information to the shared phone book list will be described. The control circuit 43 of the wireless communication device 40A detects that the shared phone book user information is input from the user interface circuit 41, and in response to this, the shared phone book user information is sent via the transmission / reception circuit 44. Transmit to the communication device 20. Here, the control circuit 43 does not respond to the input of the shared phone book user information, but spontaneously detects the shared phone book user information at regular time intervals, for example. 20 can also be transmitted.

  The control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 receives the shared telephone directory user information transmitted from the wireless communication device 40 </ b> A via the transmission / reception circuit 25. Subsequently, when the received shared phone book user information is new information, the control circuit 24 adds the received shared phone book user information to the shared phone book user list. On the other hand, when the received information on the shared phone book user is information obtained by editing the information already included in the shared phone book user list, the control circuit 24 uses the received phone book as the shared phone book user. Overwrite the information contained in the list.

  Next, deletion of shared telephone directory user information will be described. The control circuit 43 of the wireless communication device 40A transmits an information deletion instruction input via the user interface circuit 41 to the communication device 20 via the transmission / reception circuit 44. More specifically, an information deletion instruction for specifying information of the shared telephone directory user to be deleted is transmitted to the communication device 20.

  The control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 receives the information deletion instruction transmitted from the wireless communication device 40 </ b> A via the transmission / reception circuit 25. Subsequently, the control circuit 24 deletes the information of the shared phone book user specified by the received information deletion instruction from the shared phone book user list.

  After completing the addition, editing, or deletion of the shared phone book user information, the control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 completes the addition, editing, or deletion of the shared phone book user information to the wireless communication device 40A. Send a signal to notify you.

  Here, the storage circuit 26 of the communication device 20 can hold a sharing condition for determining whether the received information is information to be added to the shared telephone directory user list. In this case, when receiving the shared phone book user information from the wireless communication device 40A, the control circuit 24 determines whether the received information satisfies the sharing condition, and only the information satisfying the sharing condition is shared phone book. Can be added to the user list.

  Further, the wireless communication device 40A may be connected to the communication device 20 and directly add the shared phone book user information to the shared phone book user list. Alternatively, the wireless communication device 40A may be connected to the communication device 20 and directly edit or delete information included in the shared telephone directory user list.

  As one of the remarkable effects by adopting such a configuration, it is possible to obtain an effect that the wireless communication apparatus can change a user who uses the telephone directory sharing system via a network.

  Further, the control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 can transmit the data of the shared phone book to the wireless communication device corresponding to the information added to the shared phone book user list. Here, the timing at which the control circuit 24 of the communication device 20 transmits the data of the shared phone book to the wireless communication device corresponding to the information added to the shared phone book user list is as follows: When a request is received from a wireless communication apparatus to which information has been added, or at regular time intervals.

  Further, the wireless communication device corresponding to the information added to the shared phone book user list spontaneously connects to the communication device 20 and downloads the approved phone book data from the shared phone book storage circuit 23 of the communication device 20. You can also In this case, the wireless communication device does not necessarily need to download all of the approved phone book data, and can select and download only the necessary phone book data from the approved phone books.

  As one of the remarkable effects by adopting such a configuration, it is possible to obtain an effect that a newly added shared phone book user can obtain the shared phone book via the network.

  In the first embodiment, authentication can also be employed. For example, when the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C communicate with a communication partner corresponding to the phone book data included in the shared phone book, or when the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C transmit the phone book data to the communication device 20, the user Authentication by inputting a personal identification number or password via the interface circuit 41 may be required. Further, when the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C download the phone book data included in the shared phone book of the communication device or add, edit, or delete information of the shared phone book user of the communication device, authentication is performed. It can also be adopted. Here, various authentications such as fingerprint sensor authentication and biometric risk authentication using palm veins can be applied to the authentication, in addition to the password and password input.

  As one of the remarkable effects by adopting such a configuration, it is possible to obtain an effect of preventing inappropriate third parties from registering and using the shared telephone directory.

  Furthermore, in Example 1, it is good also as a structure which monitors telephone directory data between radio | wireless communication apparatuses. In this case, the communication device 20 that has received the phone book data from the wireless communication device 40A transmits the received phone book data to the wireless communication devices 40B and 40C without performing the approval process. When the wireless communication device 40B or 40C determines that the received telephone directory data should not be shared, the wireless communication device 40B or 40C notifies the communication device 20 accordingly. The wireless communication device 40B or 40C can transmit the phone book data itself or information specifying the phone book data together with this notification.

  The communication device 20 that has received the notification determines whether the telephone directory data related to the notification should be shared. Further, the communication device 20 notifies the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C of this determination result. The wireless communication devices 40A to 40C that have received the notification from the communication device 20 delete the phone book data determined not to be shared.

  As one of the remarkable effects of adopting such a configuration, it is possible to register a shared phone book quickly without going through a communication device, and to deal with an illegal phone book registration. It is also possible to obtain the effect of becoming.

  Further, in the configuration in which the telephone book data is monitored between the wireless communication devices described above, the communication device 20 can be removed from the configuration of the phone book sharing system. In this case, the communication device 20 does not make a final determination as to whether the telephone directory should be shared, but is performed by the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C. For example, it is possible to adopt a configuration in which a telephone book that is determined not to be shared by a plurality of wireless communication devices is not shared.

  As one of the prominent effects of adopting such a configuration, there is an effect that it is possible to configure a telephone directory sharing system from wireless communication devices in an equal position without providing a central communication device. You can also.

  Further, in the first embodiment, for example, when the wireless communication apparatus is physically connected to something, it can be configured to transmit / receive telephone directory data. For example, the charger is connected to the communication device via a network in a wired or wireless manner. In this case, the wireless communication device transmits and receives phone book data while being connected to the charger and being charged. The charger referred to here can be various devices having a charging function. For example, the charger can be a PC that charges the wireless communication device via a USB connection.

  As one of the remarkable effects by adopting such a configuration, there is an effect that it becomes possible to transmit / receive telephone directory data without going through wireless communication. As a result, there is an advantage that the shared telephone book communication fee is not incurred when the telephone book is transmitted / received, and the telephone book data can be transmitted / received even in a situation where sufficient radio waves cannot be received.

  In addition, as one of the remarkable effects obtained by adopting such a configuration, it is possible to obtain an effect that the telephone book data can be transmitted and received while the user is not using the wireless communication device.

  In addition, as one of the remarkable effects obtained by adopting such a configuration, it is possible to obtain an effect that it becomes possible to transmit / receive the phone book data at a higher speed as compared with the case through wireless communication.

  In the first embodiment, at least one of the wireless communication device and the communication device may be provided with a telephone directory search function. Here, a wireless communication device will be described, but a similar function may be provided in the communication device. In this case, the control circuit 43 of the wireless communication apparatus selects specific phone book data from the shared phone book storage circuit 42 based on conditions specified by the user via the user interface circuit 41. Further, the control circuit 43 displays the telephone directory data selected via the user interface circuit 41. Here, the condition specified by the user is input of information that can be specified by an individual, such as a company name, name, employee number, or telephone number.

  As one of the remarkable effects by adopting such a configuration, it is possible to obtain an effect that the user can use necessary phone book data more quickly.

  In the first embodiment, the phone book is used as the shared data, but the shared data is not limited to the phone book. For example, various data such as e-mails, photos, music, etc. can be adopted as shared data.

  By taking such a configuration, as one of the remarkable effects, not only the phone book data but also various data can be shared.

  Furthermore, in the first embodiment, only one shared telephone book is provided for each of the communication device 20 and the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C, but a configuration in which a plurality of shared phone books are provided for each device is also possible. is there. For example, the wireless communication devices 40A to 40C may each include a plurality of shared phone books, and a configuration may be adopted in which approval is requested from a different communication device for each shared phone book. Alternatively, a configuration in which the communication device 20 includes a plurality of shared phone books and a plurality of wireless communication device groups share different shared phone books can be adopted.

  As one of the prominent effects by adopting such a configuration, it is possible to obtain an effect that the communication device can share a different shared telephone directory with each of a plurality of groups.

  Further, as one of the prominent effects by adopting such a configuration, it is possible to obtain an effect that the wireless communication apparatus can share a plurality of different shared telephone books as different ones.

A second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 to 16. However, FIG. 9 to FIG. 16 show only the components necessary for the description of the present invention. The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the communication device 80 rejects the received phone book data when the received phone book data does not satisfy the approval condition stored in the approval condition storage circuit 22. The rejected phone book data is transmitted to the wireless communication apparatus that has transmitted the rejected phone book data. The second embodiment and the first embodiment are also different in that the wireless communication device receives the rejected phone book data and stores it in a phone book different from the shared phone book.
FIG. 9 shows the configuration of the telephone directory sharing system according to the second embodiment. The telephone directory sharing system according to the second embodiment includes a network 10, a communication device 80, a base station 30, and wireless communication devices 50A to 50C. The network 10 and the base station 30 employ the same configuration as in the first embodiment.

  FIG. 10 shows the configuration of the communication device 80. The communication device 80 includes a user interface circuit 21, a storage circuit 26, a transmission / reception circuit 25, and a control circuit 84. The user interface circuit 21, the storage circuit 26, and the transmission / reception circuit 25 employ the same configuration as that of the first embodiment.

  In addition to the operation of the control circuit 24 of the first embodiment described in FIG. 2, the control circuit 84 transmits the telephone book data when the telephone book data received from the wireless communication device does not satisfy the approval condition. The phone book data is sent to the device together with the reason for rejection. Here, the reason for rejection is the reason why the phone book data does not satisfy the approval condition.

  The control circuit 84 can be configured by a circuit having an arithmetic processing function and a data storage function, such as a CPU, MPU, ROM, and RAM.

  FIG. 11 shows the configuration of the wireless communication devices 50A to 50C. Each of the wireless communication devices 50A to 50C includes a user interface circuit 41, a storage circuit 57, a transmission / reception circuit 44, an antenna 45, and a control circuit 53. The storage circuit 57 includes a shared telephone directory storage circuit 42 and a personal telephone directory storage circuit 56. Here, since the wireless communication devices 50A to 50C have the same configuration, only the configuration of the wireless communication device 50A will be described here.

  The user interface circuit 41, the shared telephone directory storage circuit 42, the transmission / reception circuit 44, and the antenna 45 have the same configuration as in the first embodiment.

  In addition to the operation of the control circuit 43 of the first embodiment described in FIG. 3, the control circuit 53 receives the phone book data rejected by the communication device 20 and the reason for rejection. Further, the control circuit 53 displays the rejection reason received via the user interface 41. Further, the control circuit 53 stores the rejected telephone directory data in the personal telephone directory storage circuit 56. The control circuit 53 can also send the rejected phone book data to the communication device 80 again.

  The control circuit 53 can be composed of a circuit having an arithmetic processing function and a data storage function, such as a CPU, MPU, ROM, and RAM.

  Next, the operation of the telephone directory sharing system according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. The operations from S101 to S105 are the same as the operations of the first embodiment described in FIG.

  The control circuit 84 of the communication device 80 receives the phone book data A to C from the wireless communication devices 50A to 50C (S103 to S105), and then stores the received phone book data A to C and the approval condition storage circuit 22. The approval condition is compared (S106). Here, as in the first embodiment, it is assumed that the phone book data A and the phone book data B satisfy the approval condition, and the phone book data C does not satisfy the approval condition. In this case, the control circuit 84 approves the phone book data A and B that satisfy the condition. Next, the control circuit 84 rejects the phone book data C that does not satisfy the condition (S307). Thereafter, the control circuit 84 transmits the approved phone book data A and B to the wireless communication devices 50A to 50C. The control circuit 84 transmits the rejected phone book data C only to the wireless communication device 50C (S309). Further, the control circuit 84 registers the approved phone book data A and B in the shared phone book storage circuit 23 and deletes the rejected phone book data C (S310).

Here, the operation (S106 and S307 to 310) of the communication device 80 will be described in detail with reference to FIG.
The control circuit 84 of the communication device 80 receives the phone book data A to C from the wireless communication devices 50A to 50C (S210). Subsequently, the control circuit 84 first compares the phone book data A with the approval conditions stored in the approval condition storage circuit 22 (S211). When the phone book data A satisfies the approval condition, the control circuit 84 temporarily stores the phone book data A (S401). If the phone book data A does not satisfy the approval condition, the control circuit 84 temporarily stores the phone book data A together with the reason for rejection (S402). Here, it is not necessary to create a reason for rejection. Next, the control circuit 84 checks whether there is any other received data to be compared with the approval condition (S403). If other received data to be compared with the approval condition remains, the control circuit 84 repeats S211 and S401 to S403. Here, since the telephone directory data A and B satisfy the approval condition and the telephone directory data C does not satisfy the approval condition, the control circuit 84 temporarily stores the telephone directory data A and B. The control circuit 84 temporarily stores the phone book data C together with the reason for rejection.
After temporarily storing the phone book data C and confirming that there is no received data to be compared with the approval condition, the control circuit 84 stores the approved phone book data A and B in the wireless communication devices 50A to 50C. Send to. Further, the control circuit 84 transmits the rejected phone book data C and the reason for rejection only to the wireless communication device 50C that has transmitted the phone book data C (S404). Further, the control circuit 84 registers the approved phone book data A and B in the shared phone book storage circuit 23 and deletes the rejected phone book data C (S405).

  Returning to FIG. 12, the operation of the telephone directory sharing system according to the second embodiment will be further described.

  The control circuit 53 of the wireless communication devices 50A and 50B receives the approved phone book data A and B. Then, the control circuit 53 of the wireless communication devices 50A and 50B stores the received phone book data A and B in the shared phone book storage circuit 42 (S111 and S112). The control circuit 53 of the wireless communication device 50C receives the approved phone book data A and B and the rejected phone book data C. Further, the control circuit 53 of the wireless communication device 50C stores the approved telephone directory data A and B in the shared telephone directory storage circuit 42, and stores the rejected telephone directory data C in the personal telephone directory storage circuit 56. (S313).

Here, operations (S111, S112, and S313) of the wireless communication devices 50A to 50C will be described in detail with reference to FIG. However, since the wireless communication devices 50A to 50C employ the same operation as that of the first embodiment for the approved phone book data A and B, the operation of the wireless communication device 50C that receives the rejected phone book data C Only will be described.
The control circuit 53 of the wireless communication device 50C receives the phone book data A to C via the transmission / reception circuit 44 (S410). The control circuit 53 checks whether the received phone book data is phone book data approved by the communication device or rejected phone book data (S411). Here, the control circuit 53 stores the approved phone book data A and B in the shared phone book storage circuit 42 (S412). Subsequently, the control circuit 53 displays the reason for rejecting the rejected phone book data C via the user interface circuit 41 (S413). The control circuit 53 displays the reason for rejection and prompts the user to instruct whether to accept the reason for rejection displayed by the user. For example, the control circuit 53 can provide the user with a means for instructing whether to accept or not via the user interface. When it is detected that the user gives an instruction to accept the reason for rejection (S414), the control circuit 53 stores the rejected phone book data C in the personal phone book storage circuit 56 (S416). On the other hand, when it is detected that the user has given an instruction not to accept the reason for rejection (S414), the control circuit 53 stores the telephone directory data C in the shared telephone directory circuit 42 and the personal telephone directory storage circuit in the storage circuit 57. The data is stored in a portion other than 56 (S415). Based on the reason for rejection, the user can correct the rejected phone book data as necessary, and save it again in the storage circuit 57 as the phone book data. In this case, the operation of FIG. 12 is repeated. However, when it is detected that the user has given an instruction not to accept the reason for rejection, the control circuit 53 may discard the phone book data C.

  As one of the remarkable effects of the phone book sharing system according to the second embodiment, the user can know the reason for rejecting the phone book data. Therefore, the user registers the phone book data corrected based on the reason for rejection in the shared phone book. It is also possible to obtain an effect that it is possible to try.

  In the second embodiment, the reason for rejection indicates a difference between information included in the phone book data and information included in the approval condition. For example, consider a case where a condition of “stock company Z” is set as an approval condition. When the control circuit 84 detects information “company X” as the company name from the received telephone directory data, the control circuit 84 creates a rejection reason that the company name is rejected because the company name does not satisfy the condition.

  Moreover, the approval flag in Example 2 is demonstrated with reference to FIG. 15 and FIG. However, FIG. 15 and FIG. 16 show only the configuration necessary for the description of the present invention. The approval flag of the second embodiment is different from the approval flag of the first embodiment in that a state of “rejected” can be set in addition to “approved” and “not approved”.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram for explaining the telephone book data held in the storage circuit 57 of each of the wireless communication devices 50A and 50C. Phonebook data 801, 802, 811 and 812 are stored in the shared phonebook storage circuit 42 of the shared phonebook circuit 57 of the wireless communication device 50A. In addition, phone book data 711 to 716 are stored in the personal phone book circuit 56 of the wireless communication device 50A. Further, phone book data 813 is stored in a portion other than the shared phone book circuit 42 and the personal phone book circuit 56 of the storage circuit 57 of the wireless communication device 50A.

  Phonebook data 801, 802, 811 and 812 are stored in the shared phonebook storage circuit 42 of the storage circuit 57 of the wireless communication device 50C. In addition, phone book data 701 to 706 are stored in the personal phone book circuit 56 of the wireless communication device 50C. Further, phone book data 803 and 804 are stored in portions other than the shared phone book circuit 57 and the personal phone book circuit 56 of the storage circuit 57 of the line communication device 50C.

Here, the approval flag of the phone book data 801, 802, 811 and 812 is set to “approved”. That is, it means that the wireless communication devices 50A and 50C already share the phone book data 801, 802, 811 and 812. On the other hand, the approval flag of the phone book data 803, 804, and 813 is set to “unapproved”.
The wireless communication devices 50A and 50C transmit the phone book data 803, 804, and 813 associated with the approval flag set to “unapproved” to the communication device 80.

  FIG. 16 is a diagram for explaining phone book data stored in the shared phone book storage circuit 23 of the communication device 80. Here, it is assumed that the phone book data 803 and 813 satisfy the approval condition, and the phone book data 804 does not satisfy the approval condition. The control circuit 84 of the communication device 80 receives the phone book data 803, 804, and 813 from the wireless communication devices 50A and 50C. The control circuit 84 sets the approval flag of the phone book data 804 that does not satisfy the approval condition to “rejected”. Further, the control circuit 84 sets the approval flag of the phone book data 803 and 813 that satisfies the approval condition to “approved”. Furthermore, the control circuit 84 transmits the approved phone book data 803 and 813 to the wireless communication devices 50A and 50C, respectively.
