The RTC (real time clock module) 23 constitutes a clock unit, and the central control unit 11 acquires the current date and time from the RTC 23.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the contents of the communication restriction condition storage unit 13A.
The communication restriction condition storage unit 13A stores a reference condition (restriction condition) for determining whether or not communication with the communication partner is possible when communication via the public mobile communication network 2 is started. , “Restricted area” and “restricted distance”, which are arbitrarily set by a user operation. Here, as the “restricted time zone”, for example, “9:00 to 18:00” corresponding to the working time zone is set. In this time zone, communication via the public mobile communication network 2 is performed. Restrict (stop). The “restricted time zone” is not limited to time, but may be a date and time, or may include a day of the week such as “9:00 to 18:00” on weekdays.

  In addition, as the “restricted area”, for example, a radius within 30 m is set centering on the position of the self at the time of setting the restrictive condition, and if the current position of the self is within the restricted area, the public mobile communication network 2 The communication via is restricted. The “restricted area” indicates, for example, a self-location range such as a work place. The “restricted distance” indicates the distance from the current position to the communication partner. For example, if the distance is 40 m or less, communication via the public mobile communication network 2 is restricted.

FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the contents of the address book storage unit 13B.
The address book storage unit 13B has items such as “name”, “phone number”, “transceiver number”, and “extension number” as address information for each destination, and is arbitrarily set by a user operation. . When communication is started using any one of the mobile phone wireless transceiver 14, the wireless LAN transceiver 18, and the transceiver wireless transceiver 19, the corresponding “phone number”, “ The “transceiver number” and “extension number” are selectively read out and transmitted to the other party.

  Next, the operation concept of the mobile phone device in the first 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. This is the same in other embodiments described later. In addition to the recording medium, the program / data supplied from the outside via the transmission medium can be used to execute operations specific to this embodiment.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the overall operation of the mobile phone device.
First, when the central control unit 11 is turned on (powered on) (step A1), the mobile phone wireless transmission / reception unit 14 is activated to communicate with the location information management server 3 via the public mobile communication network 2. By performing a location registration response, the current location of the location information management server 3 is registered, and a standby state in which a telephone / mail is awaited while a predetermined standby image is read out and displayed (step A2). In this standby state, the central control unit 11 has performed a condition registration start operation for registering an arbitrary communication restriction condition (step A3) or a public transmission operation via the public mobile communication network 2 (step A4). ), Whether other outgoing operation (extension or transceiver outgoing operation) has been performed (step A5), incoming call has been received (step A6), etc., the condition registration start operation is now performed on the operation unit 21 If it is (YES in step A3), the condition registration process is started (step A9), and if a public call operation is performed (YES in step A4), the call process is started (step A10).

FIG. 7 is a flowchart for explaining the condition registration process (step A9 in FIG. 6) in detail, and FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a condition registration screen.
First, in a state where the registration screen for the call restriction time zone as shown in FIG. 10A is displayed and output, the central control unit 11 inputs the call restriction time zone in the registration screen and displays “ When the input confirmation is designated by the “OK” button operation (step B1), this call restriction time zone is registered in the corresponding item position in the communication restriction condition storage unit 13A (step B2).

 Next, a call restriction area registration screen as shown in FIG. 10B is displayed and output, and a radius (unit: m) centered on the current location is input into this registration screen, and “determination” in the screen is displayed. When the input confirmation is designated by the button operation (step B3), a GPS radio wave is received from the GPS receiving unit 20 (step B4), and the GPS reception result is transmitted to the location information management server 3 and responded thereto. After receiving and acquiring the current position information returned from the position information management server 3 (step B5), the communication restriction condition is stored within the input radius centered on the current position information (current position) as a communication restriction area. It registers in the corresponding item position of the part 13A (step B6). Then, in a state where the registration screen for the call limit distance as shown in FIG. 10C is displayed and output, the call limit distance is input in this registration screen, and the input is performed by operating the “OK” button in the screen. When confirmation is designated (step B7), the call restriction distance is registered in the corresponding item position of the communication restriction condition storage unit 13A (step B8).

8 and 9 are flowcharts for explaining in detail the outgoing call processing (step A11 in FIG. 6) started in response to a public outgoing operation.
First, the central control unit 11 temporarily stores the telephone number designated by key input at the time of outgoing operation or the “phone number” of the other party arbitrarily selected from the address book storage unit 13B (step C1), and then the RTC 23. The current time is acquired from (step C2), and it is checked whether this current time is included in the “restricted time zone” in the communication restriction condition storage unit 13A (step C3). If the current time is outside the “restricted time zone” (NO in step C3), the process moves to step C17 in FIG. 9 to make a call to this telephone number, and the connection with the other party responds to the establishment. A call can be made (step C18). Then, the call is terminated in response to disconnection from the other party (step C19).

 On the other hand, if the current time is within the “restricted time zone” (YES in step C3), the GPS radio wave is received from the GPS receiver 20 (step C4), and the GPS reception result is transmitted to the location information management server 3, In response to this, the current position information returned from the position information management server 3 is received and acquired (step C5). Then, the “restricted area” in the communication restriction condition storage unit 13A is compared with the current position information to check whether the current position is included in the “restricted area” (step C6). Here, if it is outside the “restricted area” (NO in step C6), the above-described transmission process is performed (steps C17 to C19), but if it is within the “restricted area” (YES in step C6), a public mobile phone. After requesting the current position information of the communication partner to the position information management server 3 via the communication network 2 (step C7), the apparatus waits for reception (step C8).

 If the current position information of the other party is received and acquired (YES in step C8), the distance between them is calculated from the current position of the partner and the current position of the other party (step C9). Then, the “restricted distance” in the communication restriction condition storage unit 13A is compared with the calculated distance to check whether the calculated distance is equal to or smaller than the “restricted distance” (step C10). If NO in step C10), the above-described calling process is performed (steps C17 to C19). If it is equal to or less than the “limit distance” (YES in step C10), the process proceeds to step C11 in FIG. A communication restriction notification is sent to the other party in a short message format together with the “telephone number”.

 Here, when receiving the communication restriction notification from the caller (YES in step A7 in FIG. 6), the other party's cellular phone device 1 displays and outputs a communication restriction message (step A15). FIG. 11 shows a communication restriction message display screen on the other party side, along with the caller's “name” and “phone number”, indicating that the call is restricted because the distance is short. Note that the other party who has confirmed the message content returns to the standby screen when the “OK” button in the screen is operated. At this time, an extension telephone transmission operation or a transceiver transmission operation can be performed on the other party side.

In addition to transmitting the communication restriction notification to the other party as described above, the central control unit 11 displays and outputs a communication restriction message to itself (step C12).
FIG. 12 shows a communication restriction message display screen at the transmission source, in which guidance is displayed that the transmission is restricted because the distance is short, and the countermeasures are displayed in a list. That is, items such as “end”, “call again”, “use transceiver”, and “use extension” are displayed in a list, and an arbitrary item is selected and designated. If the “end” item is selected (YES in step C13), the calling process is terminated at this point, but if the “call again” item is selected (step C14). And YES), the above-described transmission process is performed (steps C17 to C19).

 If the item “use transceiver” is selected (YES in step C15), the address book storage unit 13B is searched based on the other party telephone number, and the corresponding “transceiver number” is read (step C20). . Then, the transceiver wireless transceiver 19 is activated to make a transceiver call (step C21), and a transceiver call (for example, a one-way call) is performed until the end (steps C22 and C23). If the item “use extension telephone” is selected (YES in step C16), the address book storage unit 13B is searched based on the other party telephone number, and the corresponding “extension number” is read (step C24). ). Then, after the wireless LAN transmitting / receiving unit 18 is activated to make a call (step C25), the connection with the other party is established in response to the establishment (step C26). Then, the call is terminated in response to the disconnection with the other party (step C27).

 When the calling process is thus completed, the standby state is restored (step A2 in FIG. 6). In this standby state, when another outgoing operation (extension telephone or transceiver outgoing operation) is performed (YES in step A5), other outgoing processing is performed (step A11). That is, when the transceiver call operation is performed, the transceiver call processing corresponding to the above steps C20 to C23 is performed, and when the extension call transmission operation is performed, the above steps C24 to C27 are performed. The corresponding extension telephone call processing is performed. At this time, when an arbitrary partner is selected from the address book storage unit 13B by the call operation, the "transceiver number" or "extension number" corresponding to the partner is selected. Read out.

 In the standby state, when the central control unit 11 detects the presence of an incoming call (YES in step A6), the central control unit 11 performs an incoming call notification with a melody sound or the like (step A12) and responds to the establishment of the connection with the other party. A call can be made (step A13). Then, the call is terminated in response to disconnection from the other party (step A14). If a power OFF operation is detected (YES in step A8), a power OFF process is performed (step A16).

 As described above, in the first embodiment, the central control unit 11 acquires the current position of the communication partner and the current position of the communication partner at the start of communication via the public mobile communication network 2, and acquires the current position of the communication partner. It is determined whether or not to control communication based on the current position, the current position of the communication partner, and the contents of the communication restriction condition storage unit 13A, and communication via the public mobile communication network 2 is permitted based on the determination result. Since the communication is stopped, the communication can be controlled depending on whether or not communication using the public mobile communication network with the communication partner is appropriate at the start of communication.

 In this case, the “restricted distance” with the communication partner is stored as a restriction condition in the communication restriction condition storage unit 13A, and the central control unit 11 determines based on its own position information and the communication partner's position information. While calculating the distance, the calculated distance is compared with the “restricted distance” as the reference condition, and it is determined whether to control communication based on the comparison result. For example, when there is a communication partner nearby, it is possible to reduce the call charge by going directly and talking verbally.

 In addition to the “restricted distance”, a “restricted area” is stored as a restricted condition in the communication restricted condition storage unit 13A, and the central control unit 11 in addition to the distance comparison, Since it is determined whether or not to control communication based on the “restricted area”, for example, communication control according to the distance to the communication partner can be performed in a restricted area such as a company premises. In addition to the “restricted distance”, a “restricted time zone” is stored as a restricted condition in the communication restricted condition storage unit 13A, and the central control unit 11 includes the current time and the “restricted” in addition to the distance comparison. Since it is determined whether or not to control communication based on the “time zone”, for example, communication control according to the distance to the communication partner within the working time zone is possible.

  If the communication partner is nearby when the communication starts, communication using the public mobile communication network is canceled, so it is only necessary to go directly and have a verbal conversation, thus preventing waste of communication charges. . In this case, when canceling communication, it is notified by a communication restriction display or the name and telephone number of the user are transmitted to the communication partner together with the communication restriction message. Quick response is possible, such as going out.

  After stopping communication, when instructed to restart the communication, the communication via the public mobile communication network 2 is started. It is possible to respond by simply doing. In addition, communication using the transceiver wireless transmission / reception unit 19 can be performed in place of the suspension of communication via the public mobile communication network 2, and extension telephones using the wireless LAN transmission / reception unit 18 are possible.

In the first embodiment described above, each item of “restricted time zone”, “restricted area”, and “restricted distance” is set as a restricted condition in the communication restricted condition storage unit 13A. May be a combination of “restricted distance” and “restricted time”, or a combination of “restricted distance” and “restricted area”. In addition, if a communication partner is added as a restriction condition, communication control according to the communication partner can be performed.
Further, it is also possible to set a communicable condition opposite to the restricting condition, determine whether or not the communicable condition is deviated, and control communication when it is determined that the communicable condition is deviated.
(Example 2)

A second embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.
In the first embodiment described above, “restricted time zone”, “restricted area”, and “restricted distance” are exemplified as the limiting conditions. However, in this second embodiment, “restricted time zone” is used as the limiting condition. This is a case where only the “restricted area” is set, and when the self and the communication partner are in the “restricted area” in the “restricted time zone”, the communication via the public mobile communication network is stopped. is there.
Here, the same or the same names in both embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals, the description thereof will be omitted, and the following description will focus on the features of the second embodiment. .

FIG. 13 shows the contents of the communication restriction condition storage unit 13A in the second embodiment, and FIG. 14 is a flowchart for explaining in detail the restriction condition registration process (step A9 in FIG. 6) of the second embodiment.
This communication restriction condition storage unit 13A has items of “restriction time zone” and “restriction area” as restriction conditions, and is arbitrarily set by a user operation. That is, as in the first embodiment described above, when a time limit is entered in the call restriction time zone registration screen and input confirmation is specified (step D1), this time limit is stored in the communication restriction condition. It registers in the corresponding item position of the part 13A (step D2). Next, when a radius (unit: m) centered on the current location is input in the registration screen of the call restriction area and the input confirmation is designated (step D3), GPS radio waves are received from the GPS receiving unit 20. (Step D4) After sending the GPS reception result to the location information management server 3, and receiving and acquiring the current location from the location information management server 3 in response to this (Step D5), the input centered on the current location The area within the radius is registered as the communication restriction area at the corresponding item position in the communication restriction condition storage unit 13A (step D6).

FIG. 15 is a flowchart for explaining in detail a part of the outgoing call processing (step A11 in FIG. 6) started in response to a public outgoing operation in the second embodiment.
First, as in the first embodiment described above, the central control unit 11 selects a telephone number designated by key input at the time of a call operation or a “phone number” of a partner arbitrarily designated from the address book storage unit 13B. After temporarily storing (step E1), the current time is acquired from the RTC 23 (step E2), and if this current time is outside the “time limit zone” in the communication limit condition storage unit 13A (NO in step E3), FIG. The flow proceeds to step 9 and the above-described transmission processing is performed (steps C17 to C19). At the same time (step E4), the current position is received from the position information management server 3 (step E5).

 Then, the “restricted area” in the communication restriction condition storage unit 13A is compared with the current position information, and if the current position is outside the “restricted area” (NO in step E6), the above transmission process is performed. However, if it is within the “restricted area” (YES in step E6), the current location of the communication partner is communicated to the location information management server 3 via the public mobile communication network 2. After requesting information (step E7), it enters a reception waiting state (step E8). If the current position of the other party is received and acquired (YES in step E8), it is checked whether the current position of the other party is included in the “restricted area” (step E9). If it is out of “area” (NO in step E9), the above-described calling process is performed (steps C17 to C19 in FIG. 9), but if the current position of the other party is within the “restricted area” (YES in step E9). 9, the communication restriction notification is transmitted to the other party (step C11) and the communication restriction display is performed (step C12).

 As described above, in the second embodiment, the central control unit 11 has its own current position and communication partner when the “restricted time zone” and “restricted area” are set in the communication restriction condition storage unit 13A. Since the current position is acquired and communication via the public mobile communication network 2 is stopped based on the current position of the person and the other party and the “time limit period”, for example, in the company premises, via the public mobile communication network 2 It is possible to encourage communication using an extension telephone instead of communication. In addition, the second embodiment has the same effects as the first embodiment described above.

 In the second embodiment described above, each item of “restricted time zone” and “restricted area” is set as a restricted condition in the communication restricted condition storage unit 13A. However, the restricted condition is “restricted area”. The communication partner may be added as a restriction condition. Further, the “restricted area” is not limited to a company premises, but may be a sports facility such as an amusement park.

  In the first and second embodiments described above, the position information management server 3 and the GPS receiving unit 20 are used to acquire the current position of the user or the current position of the other party, but a non-contact IC processing unit is provided. In addition to the electronic money payment function, the mobile phone device uses a non-contact IC processing unit that can be used as a function to detect entry / exit of a specific facility (company, etc.) You may make it acquire. That is, when short-distance communication is performed by weak radio waves between the contactless IC processing unit and the gate device (company gate) for leaving and leaving the company installed in the company, the contactless IC processing unit Based on this signal, it may be monitored whether the self and the other party are in the restricted area (company premises).

  Further, in the first and second embodiments described above, instead of canceling communication via the public mobile communication network 2, transceiver communication using the transceiver wireless transceiver 19 or extension communication using the wireless LAN transceiver 18 is performed. Although the user can arbitrarily select, the distance between the user and the other party is calculated, and the transceiver communication using the transceiver wireless transceiver 19 and the extension communication using the wireless LAN transceiver 18 are calculated from the calculated distance. May be automatically switched.

Furthermore, the distance between the user and the partner may be calculated, and a message for guiding the calculated distance may be output or notified to the partner. In this case, when the calculated distance is equal to or less than a predetermined distance, for example, when the distance is very close, a display message or a voice message recommending verbal conversation may be output.
The extension communication is not limited to a telephone system using a wireless LAN, but may be any telephone system that can communicate on the premises.
In addition, the present invention is not limited to the mobile phone device, and can be similarly applied to a mobile terminal device such as a PDA with a communication function, an electronic camera, an electronic wristwatch, and a music player.
