FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of the communication terminal 100. In this figure, the control unit 10 controls the operation of each part of the terminal according to an event supplied from the operation unit 16 (described later). The characteristic processing operation of the control unit 10 according to the gist of the present invention will be described in detail later. The radio communication transmitting / receiving unit 11 outputs the audio data received and demodulated via the antenna ANT1 to the control unit 10, while high-frequency amplifying a transmission signal obtained by modulating the audio data supplied from the control unit 10 to the antenna ANT1. To send from. The television broadcast receiving unit 12 receives and demodulates the television broadcast signal via the antenna ANT <b> 2 according to the channel selection instruction given from the control unit 10, and outputs the reception signal obtained thereby to the control unit 10.

  Under the control of the control unit 10, the GPS signal reception unit 13 receives a GPS signal via the antenna ANT3, generates position information indicating the current position of the terminal itself, and outputs the position information to the control unit 10. The audio signal processing unit 14 includes a speaker SP and a microphone MIC. The audio data supplied from the control unit 10 is D / A converted into an audio signal to generate sound from the speaker SP, or an audio signal output from the microphone MIC is output. The audio data is A / D converted and supplied to the control unit 10. In addition, the audio signal processing unit 14 amplifies the television sound supplied from the control unit 10 and emits the sound from the speaker SP when the television broadcast is being received or recorded and reproduced.

  The display unit 15 includes a color liquid crystal panel and a display driver. Under the control of the control unit 10, the display unit 15 displays various screens such as a standby screen, and the control unit 10 generates during TV broadcast reception or recording / playback. Display video output on screen. The operation unit 16 includes a power switch for power on / off, an off-hook / on-hook switch operated at the start / end of a call, and various operation keys such as a character input switch that also functions as a dial switch, as well as a TV broadcast receiving unit 12 and GPS signal reception. Various operation buttons such as an on / off button for setting on / off of the unit 13 are provided, and an event corresponding to the operation of these keys and buttons is generated and output to the control unit 10.

  The RTC 17 generates a real time clock used for timekeeping and timer interruption. The charging stand connection unit 18 is electrically connected to a charging terminal of a charger (not shown) to charge the battery. The ROM 19 includes a program area and a data area. Various programs executed by the control unit 10 are stored in the program area of the ROM 19. The various programs include a main routine, a television broadcast process, an address book registration process, a high-speed movement detection process, a low voltage detection process, an incoming call process, and a transmission / reproduction process, which will be described later. In the data area of the ROM 19, various screen data forming a standby screen, for example, are stored in addition to control data referred to by a predetermined program.

  The RAM 20 has a work area for temporarily storing flags and register data used for various processes executed by the control unit 10, a control information storage unit 20a, a recorded data storage unit 20b, an incoming call history storage unit 20c, and an address book storage unit 20d. And a position information storage unit 20e. The configuration of the control information storage unit 20a, the recorded data storage unit 20b, and the incoming call history storage unit 20c will be described below with reference to FIGS.

(3) Configuration of control information storage unit 20a
FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of the control information storage unit 20a. The control information storage unit 20a stores control information for designating an incoming call notification mode according to the operating state. The operation state referred to here represents a state such as “TV broadcasting output”, “Address book input”, “High-speed movement”, or battery drive voltage “Low voltage”, for example. The incoming call notification mode indicates the presence / absence of incoming call notification and processing that is performed when the incoming call notification is performed.

  The control information includes a status ID, a status, processing for incoming calls, and a setting flag. When the status ID is “S01”, “TV broadcasting is being output”, “S02” is “address book input is in progress”, “S03” is “high-speed moving”, “S04” In the case of, it represents that the drive voltage of the battery is “under low voltage”.

  The process for an incoming call indicates a process that is performed when an incoming call is notified and an incoming call is notified. For example, if a TV broadcast is being output, either “not notify” or “record and notify” is selected. The setting flag represents the selected “processing for incoming call”. In the case of the example shown in FIG. 3, the user can select the incoming notification mode of “during TV broadcast output” and “during address book input”, and “not notify” and “temporarily save and notify” are selected respectively. However, the incoming call notification mode of “moving at high speed” or “during low voltage” cannot be selected by the user and is fixed to “notify”.

(4) Configuration of the recording data storage unit 20b
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the configuration of the recorded data storage unit 20b. The recording data storage unit 20b records the output (recording data) of the television broadcast receiving unit 12 to which the recording ID, recording date and time, program information, and history ID are assigned. The history ID is a number that specifies the incoming history of incoming calls (voice incoming calls or mail incoming calls) that triggered the recording of the recorded data. For example, “T01” is the first incoming call history for voice incoming calls, “M01” designates the first incoming call history of incoming mail.

(5) Configuration of incoming call history storage unit 20c
FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a configuration of the incoming call history storage unit 20c. The incoming call history storage unit 20c is roughly divided into an incoming call history 20c-1 for incoming voice calls and an incoming call history 20c-2 for incoming mails. The incoming call history 20c-1 of the incoming voice call includes a history ID, an incoming date and time, a name, a telephone number, a status ID, a recording ID, and a notification flag. On the other hand, the incoming mail history 20c-2 includes a history ID, incoming date and time, name, mail address, status ID, recording ID, notification flag, and mail text.

  The notification flags included in these incoming histories 20c-1 and 20c-2 are flags that specify whether or not to notify an incoming call when the operation state represented by the state ID is completed. As will be described later, the control unit 10 notifies the user of the operation state of the terminal when there is an incoming call when the operation state of the corresponding state ID is completed in the incoming call history whose notification flag is “1”. .

  That is, if the status ID is “S01”, a message “There was an incoming call while outputting the TV broadcast” is displayed on the screen when the TV broadcast output is finished, and the operating state at the time of the incoming call is notified to the user. If the status ID is “S02”, when the address book input operation is completed, a message “There was an incoming call while entering the address book” is displayed on the screen to notify the user of the operation status at the time of the incoming call. If the state ID is “S03”, a message “There was an incoming call during high-speed movement” is displayed on the screen when the high-speed movement is completed, and the operating state at the time of the incoming call is notified to the user. If the state ID is “S04”, a message “There was an incoming call during the low voltage” is displayed on the screen when the normal voltage is restored from the low voltage state to notify the user of the operation state at the time of the incoming call.

B. Action
Next, the operation of the control unit 10 will be described with reference to FIGS. In the following, after describing the operation of the “main routine” first, “TV broadcast processing”, “address book registration processing”, “high-speed movement detection processing”, “low voltage detection processing” called from this main routine, Each operation of “incoming call processing” and “outgoing / playback processing” will be described.

(1) Main routine operation
FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the operation of the main routine executed by the control unit 10. When communication terminal 100 is powered on by the user's power-on operation, control unit 10 executes the main routine shown in FIG. 6 and proceeds to step SA1 to start the timer. As a result, the timer count starts based on the real time clock generated by the RTC 17. Subsequently, in step SA2, a position registration control sequence is executed to perform position registration on the network side, and then a standby process for entering a standby state is executed.

  Thereafter, in steps SA3 to SA10, “setting operation”, “television operation”, “address book operation”, “timer timeout (TO)”, “incoming call”, “outgoing / playback operation”, “power-off operation” ”And“ Other operation ”events. If these events do not occur, the determination results in steps SA3 to SA10 are all “NO”, and the standby state in step SA2 described above is maintained. On the other hand, when any of the above events occurs in the standby state, processing corresponding to the generated event is executed. Hereinafter, the operation for each occurrence event will be described.

<When a setting operation is performed>
When a setting operation for setting a setting flag (see FIG. 3) in the control information stored in the control information storage unit 20a provided in the RAM 20 is performed, the determination result in step SA3 becomes “YES”, and the flow proceeds to step SA11. The setting flag is set according to the setting operation. For example, in order not to notify the incoming call during the TV broadcast output, as shown in FIG. 3, in the state ID “S01”, the setting flag corresponding to “not notify” is set to “1” as the process for the incoming call. To do. Then, after the setting process is completed, the standby state is restored.

<When TV operation is performed>
When a television operation such as turning on / off the television broadcast receiving unit 12 or instructing a channel selection is performed, the determination result in step SA4 is “YES”, and the television broadcast process is executed via step SA12. In the TV broadcast process, as described later, when a TV broadcast output is performed or an output end operation for ending the TV broadcast output is performed, the state ID of the incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c. Based on “S01”, a message “There was an incoming call while TV broadcast is being output” is displayed on the screen to notify the user of the operation status when there is an incoming call, and to perform other TV broadcast processing. ing. When such TV broadcast processing is completed, the standby state is restored.

<When address book operation is performed>
When an address book operation for registering, for example, new address book data (name, telephone number, mail address, etc.) in the address book storage unit 20d of the RAM 20 is performed, the determination result in step SA5 becomes “YES”. Address book registration processing is executed via step SA13. As will be described later, in the address book registration process, when the address book is input or when the user completes the address book input operation to complete the address book registration, the notification flag is set to “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c. Is displayed on the screen based on the state ID “S02” of the incoming call history of “” to notify the user of the operation state when there is an incoming call. When such address book registration processing is completed, the standby state is restored.

<Timer timeout>
When the timer started in step SA1 measures a certain time and a time-out event occurs, the determination result in step SA6 is “YES”, and the high-speed movement detection process is executed via step SA14. As will be described later, in the high-speed movement detection process, it is determined whether or not the vehicle is moving at high speed based on the position information acquired every time a timeout event occurs, and an incoming call notification that is not moving at high speed can be made If there is an incoming call history with the notification flag “1” at the time of transition to a different state, “incoming call during high speed” is based on the incoming call history status ID “S03” of the incoming call history storage unit 20c with the notification flag “1”. The message “Yes” is displayed on the screen to inform the user of the operating state when an incoming call is received.

  Next, in step SA15, a low voltage detection process is executed. As will be described later, in the low voltage detection process, every time a timeout event occurs, the power supply voltage is detected to determine whether or not it is in the low voltage state, and the power supply voltage is changed from the low voltage state to the normal voltage state. If an incoming call history with a notification flag of “1” is stored in the incoming call history storage unit 20c at the time of transition, based on the state ID “S04” to which the notification flag is assigned, “There was an incoming call during low voltage” Is displayed on the screen to notify the user of the operation state when an incoming call is received. Thereafter, the control unit 10 returns to the standby state described above.

<Incoming call>
When an incoming call is detected, the determination result in step SA7 is “YES”, and the incoming call process is executed via step SA16. As will be described later, in the incoming call processing, when control information indicating that an incoming call is not being output during TV broadcast output (or address book input) is registered in the control information storage unit 20a, the TV broadcast is being output (or addressed). When there is an incoming call while the book is being entered), the status ID “S01” representing “TV broadcasting is being output” (or the status ID “S02” representing “address book being entered”) is stored in the incoming call history and the corresponding notification is made. Set the flag to "1". On the other hand, when control information for notifying an incoming call during TV broadcast output (or address book input) is registered in the control information storage unit 20a, an incoming voice call during TV broadcast output (or address book input) If there is no response to this incoming call notification, the state ID “S01” representing “TV broadcast output” (or the state ID “S02” representing “address book input”) is stored in the incoming call history, The corresponding notification flag is set to “1”.

  Further, in the incoming call processing, if the voice incoming call during high speed movement (or low voltage) is not responded, the state ID “S03” indicating “high speed movement” (or the state ID “S04” indicating “low voltage”). ") Is stored in the incoming call history, and the corresponding notification flag is set to" 1 ". Then, when such incoming call processing is completed, the control unit 10 returns to the standby state.

<When a call / play operation is performed>
If a voice transmission or mail transmission operation or a reproduction operation for reproducing recorded data is performed, the determination result in step SA8 is “YES”, and transmission / reproduction processing is executed via step SA17. As will be described later, in the call origination / playback process, if the state ID corresponding to the destination telephone number (or destination mail address) designated by the call operation is stored in the incoming call history 20c-1, the state ID is stored in the state ID. Based on the notification. For example, if the status ID “S01” is stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 (or 20c-2), the message “There is an incoming call during TV broadcast output” when a call is made to the destination telephone number (or destination mail address). The message “Done” is displayed on the screen to notify the user. Further, when a history ID is given to the recording data designated for reproduction by the reproduction operation, the corresponding incoming history is read with reference to the historical ID, and notification based on the state ID in the read incoming history is performed. For example, when the state ID “S01” is stored in the incoming call history, a message “There was an incoming call while outputting a TV broadcast” is displayed on the screen to notify the user. When the transmission / reproduction process is completed, the control unit 10 returns to the standby state.

<When the power is turned off>
When a power-off operation for powering off the communication terminal 100 is performed, the determination result in step SA9 is “YES”, the process proceeds to step SA18, and after executing the power-off process, this process is completed.

<When other operations are performed>
When other operations other than those described above are performed, the determination result of step SA10 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SA19 to execute other processes. Other processing refers to processing such as e-mail creation. And after performing other processing, it returns to the standby state.

(2) TV broadcast processing operations
Next, the operation of the television broadcast process will be described with reference to FIG. When this process is executed via step SA12 (see FIG. 6) of the main routine described above, control unit 10 advances the process to step SB1 shown in FIG. In steps SB1 to SB3, it is determined whether or not there is an output start operation, an output end operation, and other operations. Hereinafter, the operation will be described by dividing it into “when an output start operation is performed”, “when another operation is performed”, and “when an output end operation is performed”.

<When an output start operation is performed>
When the output start operation is performed, the determination result in step SB1 is “YES”, the process proceeds to step SB4, the television broadcast receiving unit 12 is set on to instruct broadcast reception, and in the subsequent step SB5, the audio signal processing unit 13 and the display unit 14 are instructed to start output, and the process ends.

<When other operations are performed>
When other operations excluding the output start operation and the output end operation, for example, a channel selection operation for designating a reception channel or a volume operation for adjusting the audio output level are performed, the determinations of steps SB1 and SB2 are performed. The result is “NO”, and the flow proceeds to step SB3. In step SB3, for example, the broadcast receiving station is changed according to the channel selection operation, or other television broadcast processing for designating the audio output level according to the volume operation is executed, and this processing is completed.

<When the output end operation is performed>
When the output end operation is performed, the determination result in Step SB2 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to Step SB6. In step SB6, it is determined whether or not the television broadcast is being output (reception output is being performed). If the output is not in progress, the determination result is “NO”, and the present process ends. That is, if the television broadcast is not being output, the output end operation is invalidated and the present process is terminated.

  On the other hand, when the output end operation is performed during the television broadcast output, the determination result in step SB6 is “YES”, the process proceeds to step SB7, the television broadcast receiving unit 12 is set off, and the audio signal processing unit 13 and The display unit 14 is instructed to end the output. Next, in step SB8, it is determined whether or not there is an incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c (voice incoming call history 20c-1 and mail incoming call history 20c-2) provided in the RAM 20. If there is no corresponding incoming call history, the determination result is “NO”, and the process ends.

  On the other hand, if there is an incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c, the determination result in Step SB8 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to Step SB9. In step SB9, the user is notified of the operation state when there is an incoming call based on the state ID in the corresponding incoming call history (the incoming call history whose notification flag is “1”).

  That is, as will be described later, in the incoming call processing (see FIGS. 11 to 14), if there is an incoming call when control information indicating that the incoming call is not being output during television broadcast is registered in the control information storage unit 20a, A state ID “S01” representing “TV broadcast output” is stored in the incoming call history, and a corresponding notification flag is set to “1”. Therefore, if there is an incoming history with the notification flag “1” when the television broadcast output is terminated in response to the output termination operation, in step SB9, “TV broadcast is performed based on the status ID“ S01 ”of the corresponding incoming history. The message “There was an incoming call during output” is displayed on the screen to notify the user of the operation state when an incoming call is received. When such state notification is completed, the process proceeds to step SB10, the notification flag of the corresponding incoming call history is set to “0”, and this process is ended.

  As described above, in the television broadcast processing, there is an incoming call when the control information indicating that the incoming call during the output of the television broadcast is not notified is registered in the control information storage unit 20a. When the broadcast output is terminated, a message “There was an incoming call during TV broadcast output” is displayed on the screen based on the state ID “S01” of the incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c. To inform the user of the operating state at the time of the incoming call. Then, the notification flag of the corresponding incoming call history is reset to zero after the notification.

(3) Address book registration process operation
Next, the operation of the address book registration process will be described with reference to FIG. When this process is executed via step SA13 (see FIG. 6) of the main routine described above, control unit 10 advances the process to step SC1 shown in FIG. In steps SC <b> 1 to SC <b> 2, it is determined whether the address book operation is “input start operation”, “input completion operation”, or “input operation”. Hereinafter, the operation will be described by dividing into “when an input start operation is performed”, “when an input operation is performed”, and “when an input completion operation is performed”.

<When input start operation is performed>
When the input start operation is performed, the determination result in step SC1 is “YES”, the process proceeds to step SC3, and the address book input start state is set. The address book input start state refers to a state in which the address book is displayed on the display unit 15 based on the address book data read from the address book storage unit 20d provided in the RAM 20.

<When input operation is performed>
If an input operation is performed after the input start operation, the determination results in steps SC1 and SC2 are both “NO”, and the process proceeds to step SC9. For example, newly registered address book data (name, telephone number, mail address, etc.) An address book input process such as input is executed.

<When input completion operation is performed>
When the input completion operation is performed, the determination result in step SC2 is “YES”, and the flow proceeds to step SC4. In step SC4, it is determined whether the address book is being entered. When the input completion operation is performed in the state where the address book is not input, the determination result is “NO”, and this processing is finished. That is, the input completion operation is invalidated when the address book input is not performed.

  On the other hand, if the address book is being entered, the determination result in step SC4 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SC5, where the entered address book data is registered in the address book storage unit 20d provided in the RAM 20. When the address book registration is thus performed, the control unit 10 proceeds to step SC6, and the notification flag is set to “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c (voice incoming call history 20c-1 and mail incoming call history 20c-2) provided in the RAM 20. It is determined whether there is an incoming call history of “”. If there is no corresponding incoming call history, the determination result is “NO”, and the process ends.

  On the other hand, if there is an incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c, the determination result in step SC6 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SC7. In step SC7, the operation state at the time of incoming call is notified based on the state ID in the corresponding incoming call history (the incoming call history whose notification flag is “1”).

  That is, as will be described later, in the incoming call processing (see FIGS. 11 to 14), if there is an incoming call when control information indicating that the incoming call during entry in the address book is not notified is registered in the control information storage unit 20a, A state ID “S02” representing “address book input” is stored in the incoming call history, and a corresponding notification flag is set to “1”. Therefore, if there is an incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” at the time when the address book entry is finished, in step SC7, based on the status ID “S02” of the corresponding incoming call history, “There is an incoming call during address book entry”. The message “Done” is displayed on the screen to notify the user of the operation state when an incoming call is received. Then, when such state notification is completed, the process proceeds to step SC8, the notification flag of the corresponding incoming history is set to “0”, and this processing is ended.

  As described above, in the address book registration process, there is an incoming call when control information indicating that an incoming call during entry of the address book is not notified is registered in the control information storage unit 20a, and then the user completes input of the address book. When the address book registration is completed by performing the operation, the message “There was an incoming call while entering the address book” is based on the state ID “S02” of the incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c. Is displayed on the screen to notify the user of the operation state when an incoming call is received, and the notification flag of the corresponding incoming call history is reset to zero after the notification.

(4) High-speed movement detection processing operation
Next, the operation of the high-speed movement detection process will be described with reference to FIG. When this process is executed via step SA14 (see FIG. 6) of the main routine described above, the control unit 10 advances the process to step SD1 shown in FIG. In step SD1, the GPS signal receiving unit 13 is turned on, and the GPS signal receiving unit 13 receives the GPS signal to acquire position information, and the acquired position information is provided in the RAM 20 as a position information storage unit. Store in 20e.

  The position information storage unit 20e is provided with at least a first position information area for storing the previous position information and a second position information area for storing the position information acquired this time, and a time-out event occurs. At predetermined intervals, the position information stored in the second position information area is updated and registered in the first position information area as the previous position information, while the position information acquired this time is stored in the second position information area. It is supposed to be.

  Next, in step SD2, whether or not the vehicle is moving at high speed based on the difference between the previous position information updated and registered in the first position information area and the position information acquired this time stored in the second position information area. to decide. If the vehicle is moving at high speed, the determination result is “YES”, the process proceeds to step SD3, the high-speed movement flag provided in the work area (not shown) of the RAM 20 is set to “1”, and this processing is completed.

  On the other hand, if the vehicle is not moving at high speed, the determination result at step SD2 is “NO”, the process proceeds to step SD4, and the high-speed movement flag is set to “0”. Next, in step SD5, it is determined that notification is possible. That is, it is determined that the state where the high-speed movement is being made has changed to a state where the incoming call notification that is not moving at high speed is possible. Subsequently, in step SD6, it is determined whether or not there is an incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c (voice incoming call history 20c-1 and mail incoming call history 20c-2) provided in the RAM 20. If there is no corresponding incoming call history, the determination result is “NO”, and the process ends.

  On the other hand, if there is an incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c, the determination result in step SD6 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SD7. In step SD7, the operation state when there is an incoming call is notified based on the state ID in the corresponding incoming call history (the incoming call history whose notification flag is “1”).

  That is, as will be described later, in the incoming call processing (see FIGS. 11 to 14), when not responding to a voice incoming call during high speed movement, the state ID “S03” representing “high speed moving” is stored in the incoming call history. The corresponding notification flag is set to “1”. Therefore, if there is an incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” when the state of high-speed movement is changed to a state of not moving at high speed, in step SD7, based on the state ID “S03” of the corresponding incoming call history, The message “There was an incoming call” is displayed on the screen to notify the user of the operation status when there is an incoming call. When such state notification is completed, the process proceeds to step SD8, the notification flag of the corresponding incoming call history is set to “0”, and this process is ended.

  As described above, in the high-speed movement detection process, position information is acquired every time a timeout event occurs, and it is determined whether or not high-speed movement is performed based on the difference between the position information acquired last time and the position information acquired this time. To do. Then, when there is an incoming call history with a notification flag of “1” when a transition is made from a state of high-speed movement to a state where incoming notification is possible without high-speed movement, an incoming call with a notification flag of “1” exists in the incoming history storage unit 20c. Based on the history status ID “S03”, a message “There was an incoming call during high speed” is displayed on the screen to inform the user of the operation status when there is an incoming call, and after the notification, the corresponding incoming history notification flag is set. Reset to zero.

(5) Operation of low voltage detection processing
Next, the operation of the low voltage detection process will be described with reference to FIG. When this process is executed via step SA15 (see FIG. 6) of the main routine described above, the control unit 10 advances the process to step SE1 shown in FIG. 10 to detect the power supply voltage. Subsequently, in step SE2, it is determined whether or not the detected power supply voltage is in a low voltage state below a predetermined level. If it is in the low voltage state, the determination result is “YES”, the process proceeds to step SE3, and the low voltage flag provided in the work area (not shown) of the RAM 20 is set to “1”. Next, the process proceeds to step SE4, the timer is instructed to be restarted, and this process is finished.

  On the other hand, if not in the low voltage state, the determination result in step SE2 is “NO”, the process proceeds to step SE5, and the low voltage flag is set to “0”. In step SE6, it is determined that notification is possible. Subsequently, in step SE7, it is determined whether or not there is an incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c (voice incoming call history 20c-1 and mail incoming call history 20c-2) provided in the RAM 20. If there is no corresponding incoming call history, the determination result is “NO”, and after instructing the timer to be restarted in step SE4, the present process is terminated.

  On the other hand, if there is an incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c, the determination result in step SE7 is “YES”, and the flow proceeds to step SE8. In step SE8, the operation state when there is an incoming call is notified based on the state ID in the corresponding incoming call history (the incoming call history whose notification flag is “1”).

  That is, as will be described later, in the incoming call processing (see FIGS. 11 to 14), when not responding to a voice incoming call during low voltage, the state ID “S04” indicating “low voltage” is stored in the incoming call history, The corresponding notification flag is set to “1”. Therefore, if there is an incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” when the power supply voltage transitions from the low voltage state to the normal voltage state, in step SE8, based on the status ID “S04” of the corresponding incoming call history, “low The message “There was an incoming call during voltage” is displayed on the screen to notify the user of the operation state when the incoming call is received. When such state notification is completed, the process proceeds to step SE9, where the notification flag of the corresponding incoming call history is set to “0”, and then the timer is instructed to be restarted in step SE4, and this process ends.

  As described above, in the low voltage detection process, every time a timeout event occurs, the power supply voltage is detected to determine whether or not the low voltage state is present. Then, if there is an incoming call history with the notification flag “1” when the power supply voltage transitions from the low voltage state to the normal voltage state, the state ID of the incoming call history with the notification flag “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c. Based on “S04”, the message “There was an incoming call during low voltage” is displayed on the screen to inform the user of the operation state when there is an incoming call, and the notification flag of the corresponding incoming call history is reset to zero after the notification. .

(6) Incoming call processing
Next, the operation of the incoming call processing will be described with reference to FIGS. When this process is executed via step SA16 (see FIG. 6) of the main routine described above, the control unit 10 advances the process to step SF1 shown in FIG. 11 to determine whether the incoming call is a voice call or mail. Subsequently, in step SF2, the incoming call history is stored based on the determined incoming call content. That is, the incoming call history 20c-1 (see FIG. 5) is stored for voice incoming calls, and the incoming call history 20c-2 (see FIG. 5) is stored for incoming mails. Next, in step SF3, an operation state at the time of incoming is detected.

  Then, in steps SF4 to SF7, the operation state at the time of the incoming call detected in step SF3 is “normal incoming”, “incoming during TV broadcast output”, “incoming address book input” in the standby state described above. It is determined whether it is “incoming call”, “incoming call during high-speed movement” or “incoming call under low voltage”. Hereinafter, the operation will be described for each state.

<Normal incoming call>
If the incoming call is normal, the determination results in steps SF4 to SF7 are “NO”, and the control unit 10 advances the process to step SF8. In step SF8, it is determined whether or not a voice call is received. If it is an incoming mail, the determination result is “NO”, the process proceeds to step SF9, an incoming mail notification is performed, and the process is terminated.

  On the other hand, if a voice call is received, the determination result in step SF8 is “YES”, and the process advances to step SF10 to perform voice call notification. In step SF11, it is determined whether or not there is a response operation. If the response operation is not performed during the voice incoming call notification, the determination result is “NO”, and this process is completed. On the other hand, if a response operation is performed during voice incoming call notification, the determination result in step SF11 is “YES”, the process proceeds to step SF12, the line with the communication partner is connected, a call is made, and the present process ends.

<Incoming call during TV broadcast output>
If it is an incoming call during TV broadcast output, the determination result in step SF4 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SF13 shown in FIG. In step SF13, the “processing for incoming call” to which the setting flag “1” is assigned in the state ID “S01” indicating that the television broadcast is being output is read from the control information stored in the control information storage unit 20a of the RAM 20. Subsequently, in step SF14, it is determined whether or not the “processing for incoming call” read from the control information storage unit 20a in step SF13 is “not notify”. When the “processing for incoming call” is “not notify”, the determination result is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SF15.

  In step SF15, the state ID “S01” indicating that the television broadcast is being output is stored in the incoming call history stored in the incoming call history storage unit 20c in step SF2. That is, if a voice call is received, “S01” indicating that the television broadcast is being output is registered as the state ID corresponding to the history ID of the incoming history stored in the incoming history 20c-1 (see FIG. 5) in step SF2. If it is an incoming mail, “S01” indicating that the TV broadcast is being output is registered as the state ID corresponding to the history ID of the incoming history stored in the incoming history 20c-2 (see FIG. 5) in step SF2. To do. Subsequently, in step SF16, the notification flag in the incoming call history corresponding to the state ID stored in step SF15 is set to “1”, and this process is terminated.

  On the other hand, if “processing for incoming call” is “recording and informing”, the determination result in step SF14 is “NO”, and the process proceeds to step SF17. In step SF17, the audio signal processing unit 13 and the display unit 14 are instructed to end the television broadcast output. Next, in step SF18, the output (recording data) of the television broadcast receiving unit 12 to which the recording ID, recording date and time, program information, and history ID are added is recorded in the recording data storage unit 20d. Note that the history ID of the incoming call history stored in the incoming call history storage unit 20c in step SF2 (see FIG. 11) is added as the history ID.

  In step SF19, it is determined whether or not a voice call is received. If it is an incoming mail, the determination result is “NO”, the process proceeds to step SF20, and an incoming mail notification is performed. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step SF24, and in order to view the television broadcast missed during the notification of the incoming mail, the execution of the recording data chasing reproduction is instructed and the process is terminated. Note that in step SF24, it may be possible to specify whether or not to perform chasing playback of recorded data by a user operation.

  On the other hand, if a voice call is received, the determination result in step SF19 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SF21 to perform voice call notification. Next, in step SF22, it is determined whether or not there is a response operation. If a response operation is performed during the voice incoming call notification, the determination result is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SF23 to connect the line with the communication partner and make a call. When the call is finished, the process proceeds to step SF24, and in order to watch a television broadcast missed during the call, the execution of the recorded data chasing reproduction is instructed, and this process is finished.

  On the other hand, if the response operation is not performed during the voice incoming call notification, the determination result in step SF22 is “NO”, and the process proceeds to step SF25. In step SF25, “S01” indicating that the television broadcast is being output is registered as the state ID corresponding to the history ID stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 in step SF2 (see FIG. 11). Next, in step SF26, the notification flag in the incoming call history 20c-1 corresponding to the registered state ID is set to “1”. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step SF24, and in order to view the television broadcast missed during the voice incoming call notification, execution of the recording data chasing reproduction is instructed, and the present process is finished.

<Incoming call while entering address book>
If an incoming call is received while the address book is being entered, the determination result in step SF5 shown in FIG. 11 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SF27 shown in FIG. In step SF27, the “processing for incoming call” to which the setting flag “1” is assigned in the state ID “S02” indicating that the address book is being input is read from the control information stored in the control information storage unit 20a of the RAM 20. Subsequently, in step SF28, it is determined whether or not the “processing for incoming call” read from the control information storage unit 20a in step SF27 is “not notify”. If the “processing for incoming call” is “not notify”, the determination result is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SF29.

  In step SF29, the state ID “S02” indicating that the address book is being entered is stored in the incoming call history stored in the incoming call history storage unit 20c in step SF2 (see FIG. 11). That is, for a voice call, “S02” indicating that the address book is being entered is registered as the state ID corresponding to the history ID of the incoming history stored in the incoming history 20c-1. If it is an incoming mail, “S02” indicating that the address book is being entered is registered as a status ID corresponding to the history ID of the incoming history stored in the incoming history 20c-2. Subsequently, in step SF30, the notification flag in the incoming call history corresponding to the state ID registered in step SF29 is set to “1”, and this process is finished.

  On the other hand, if the “processing for incoming call” is “temporarily stored and notified”, the determination result in step SF28 is “NO”, and the process proceeds to step SF31. In step SF31, the address book data being input is temporarily stored in the address book storage unit 20d of the RAM 20. Next, in step SF32, it is determined whether the incoming call is a voice call. If it is an incoming mail, the determination result is “NO”, the process proceeds to step SF33, and an incoming mail notification is performed. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step SF37, the address book data temporarily stored in the address book storage unit 20d of the RAM 20 is returned to the work area of the RAM 20, and the process is finished. Thereby, the address book input is continued.

  On the other hand, if the incoming call is a voice incoming call, the determination result in step SF32 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SF34 to perform voice incoming call notification. Next, in step SF35, it is determined whether or not there is a response operation. If a response operation is performed during the voice incoming call notification, the determination result is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SF 36 to connect the line with the communication partner and make a call. When the call ends, the process proceeds to step SF37, where the address book data temporarily stored in the address book storage unit 20d of the RAM 20 is returned to the work area of the RAM 20 and the process is finished. Thereby, the address book input is continued.

  On the other hand, if no response operation is performed during the voice incoming call notification, the determination result in step SF35 is “NO”, and the process proceeds to step SF38. In step SF38, “S02” indicating that the address book is being entered is registered as the state ID corresponding to the history ID stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 in step SF2 (see FIG. 11). Next, in step SF39, the notification flag in the incoming call history 20c-1 corresponding to the registered state ID is set to “1”. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step SF37, the address book data temporarily stored in the address book storage unit 20d of the RAM 20 is returned to the work area of the RAM 20, and the process is finished. Thereby, the address book input is continued.

<Incoming calls while moving at high speed>
If the incoming call is made during high speed movement, the determination result in step SF6 shown in FIG. 11 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SF40 shown in FIG. In step SF40, it is determined whether or not a voice call is received. If it is an incoming mail, the determination result is “NO”, the process proceeds to step SF41, the incoming mail is notified, and the process is terminated.

  On the other hand, if the incoming call is a voice incoming call, the determination result in step SF40 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SF42 to perform voice incoming call notification. Next, in step SF43, it is determined whether or not there is a response operation. If a response operation is performed during the voice incoming call notification, the determination result is “YES”, the process proceeds to step SF44, the line is connected to the communication partner side, and the process is completed.

  On the other hand, if no response operation is performed during the voice incoming call notification, the determination result in step SF43 is “NO”, and the process proceeds to step SF45. In step SF45, “S03” indicating that the vehicle is moving at high speed is registered as the state ID corresponding to the history ID stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 in step SF2 (see FIG. 11). Next, in step SF46, the notification flag in the incoming call history 20c-1 corresponding to the registered state ID is set to “1”, and then this process ends.

<Incoming call under low voltage>
When an incoming call is received under the low voltage state, the determination result in step SF7 shown in FIG. 11 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SF40 shown in FIG. 14 to determine whether or not the incoming call is a voice call. If it is an incoming mail, the determination result is “NO”, the process proceeds to step SF41, the incoming mail is informed, and the process ends. On the other hand, if a voice call is received, the determination result in step SF40 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SF42 to perform voice call notification. Next, in step SF43, it is determined whether or not there is a response operation. If a response operation is performed during the voice incoming call notification, the determination result is “YES”, the process proceeds to step SF44, the line with the communication partner side is connected and a call is made, and this process is terminated.

  On the other hand, if no response operation is performed during the voice incoming call notification, the determination result in step SF43 is “NO”, and the process proceeds to step SF45. In step SF45, “S04” representing low voltage is registered as the state ID corresponding to the history ID stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 in step SF2 (see FIG. 11) described above. Next, in step SF46, the notification flag in the incoming call history 20c-1 corresponding to the registered state ID is set to “1”, and this process is finished.

  As described above, in the incoming call processing, when control information indicating that an incoming call during TV broadcast output is not notified is registered in the control information storage unit 20a, if there is an incoming call during TV broadcast output, The state ID “S01” representing “medium” is stored in the incoming call history, and the corresponding notification flag is set to “1”. On the other hand, when the control information for notifying the incoming call during the TV broadcast output is registered in the control information storage unit 20a, there is an incoming voice call during the TV broadcast output. The state ID “S01” representing “TV broadcast output” is stored in the incoming call history, and the corresponding notification flag is set to “1”.

  In addition, in the incoming call processing, when control information indicating that the incoming call while the address book is being entered is not notified is registered in the control information storage unit 20a, if there is an incoming call while the address book is being entered, “address book is being entered” is displayed. The state ID “S02” to be represented is stored in the incoming call history, and the corresponding notification flag is set to “1”. On the other hand, when control information for notifying an incoming call while the address book is being input is registered in the control information storage unit 20a, if there is an incoming voice call while the address book is being input, The state ID “S02” indicating “address book input” is stored in the incoming call history, and the corresponding notification flag is set to “1”.

  Furthermore, in the incoming call processing, if the voice incoming call during high speed movement (or low voltage) is not responded, the state ID “S03” indicating “high speed movement” (or the state ID “S04” indicating “low voltage”). ") Is stored in the incoming call history, and the corresponding notification flag is set to" 1 ".

(7) Operation of outgoing / replay processing
Next, referring to FIG. 15, the operation of the outgoing / reproducing process will be described. When this process is executed through step SA17 (see FIG. 6) of the main routine described above, the control unit 10 advances the process to step SG1 shown in FIG. It is determined whether any of the above has been performed. Hereinafter, the operation will be described separately for a case where a transmission operation is performed and a case where a reproduction operation is performed.

<When a call operation is performed>
When the transmission operation is performed, the determination result in step SG1 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SG2. In step SG2, a call destination telephone number (or a call destination mail address which is a mail address of the call partner) designated by the call operation is stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 (or 20c-2). Determine if you are. If the telephone number (or mail address) of the calling party is not stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 (or 20c-2), the determination result is “NO”, and the process proceeds to step SG5, where the calling party's telephone number (or Send this to (email address) and finish this process.

  On the other hand, if the telephone number (or mail address) of the calling party is stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 (or 20c-2), the determination result in step SG2 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SG3. In step SG3, it is determined whether or not the state ID corresponding to the telephone number (or mail address) of the caller is stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 (or 20c-2). If the status ID is not stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 (or 20c-2), the determination result is “NO”, the process proceeds to step SG5, and the call is sent to the telephone number (or mail address) of the caller. Finish the process.

  On the other hand, if the state ID is stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 (or 20c-2), the determination result in step SG3 is “YES”, and the process proceeds to step SG4, where notification based on the state ID is performed. Do. For example, when the status ID “S01” is stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 (or 20c-2) corresponding to the telephone number (or mail address) of the caller, the telephone number (or mail address) When a call is made to the user, a message “There was an incoming call while outputting TV broadcast” is displayed on the screen to notify the user. Thereby, it becomes possible to confirm the operation state of the own terminal when there is an incoming call from the other party to be sent without operating. And after performing such notification, it progresses to step SG5, and transmits to the telephone number (or mail address) of a calling party, and complete | finishes this process.

<When playback operation is performed>
When the reproduction operation is performed, the determination result in step SG1 is “NO”, and the process proceeds to step SG6. In step SG6, recorded data to be reproduced is selected from the recorded data storage unit 20b (see FIG. 4) of the RAM 20. Next, in step SG7, it is determined whether or not a history ID is given to the selected recording data. If a history ID is not assigned to the selected recorded data, the determination result is “NO”, the process proceeds to step SG10, the reproduction start of the recorded data is instructed, and this process is terminated.

  On the other hand, if a history ID is assigned to the selected recording data, the determination result in step SG7 is “YES”, and the flow advances to step SG8. In step SG8, the corresponding incoming call history is read with reference to the history ID given to the selected recording data. Next, in step SG9, notification is performed based on the read state ID in the incoming call history. For example, when the state ID “S01” is stored in the incoming call history, a message “There was an incoming call while outputting a TV broadcast” is displayed on the screen to notify the user. This makes it possible to confirm that the recorded data to be reproduced is a television broadcast recorded in response to an incoming call without any operation. And after performing such notification, it progresses to step SG10, instruct | indicates the reproduction | regeneration start of recording data, and complete | finishes this process.

  As described above, in the call origination / reproduction process, when the state ID corresponding to the call destination telephone number (or the call destination mail address) designated by the call operation is stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 (or 20c-2), Notification based on the state ID is performed. For example, when the status ID “S01” is stored in the incoming call history 20c-1 (or 20c-2), when a call is made to the destination telephone number (or destination mail address), “Incoming while TV broadcast is being output” “There was a message” is displayed on the screen to notify the user.

  Further, when a history ID is given to the recording data designated for reproduction by the reproduction operation, the corresponding incoming history is read with reference to the historical ID, and notification based on the state ID in the read incoming history is performed. For example, when the state ID “S01” is stored in the incoming call history, a message “There was an incoming call while outputting a TV broadcast” is displayed on the screen to notify the user.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the control information designating the incoming call notification mode according to the operation state is stored in the control information storage unit 20a, and the state ID indicating the operation state when the incoming call is received, and this state An incoming call history including a notification flag for designating whether or not to receive an incoming call when the operation state represented by the ID is completed is stored in the incoming call history storage unit 20c, and an incoming call during TV broadcast output is not notified. When control information is registered in the control information storage unit 20a, if there is an incoming call during TV broadcast output, the state ID “S01” indicating “TV broadcast output in progress” is stored in the incoming call history and the corresponding notification is made. Set the flag to "1". Thereafter, when the user ends the output of the television broadcast by performing an output end operation, with reference to the state ID “S01” of the incoming call history whose notification flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c, “output TV broadcast” The message “There was an incoming call” is displayed on the screen to notify the user of the operation status at the time of the incoming call.

  In addition, when control information indicating that an incoming call while inputting an address book is not notified is registered in the control information storage unit 20a, if there is an incoming call while the address book is being input, a state ID “inputting address book” is displayed. “S02” is stored in the incoming call history, and the corresponding notification flag is set to “1”. Thereafter, when the user completes the address book input operation by completing the address book input operation, the address flag is set to “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c with reference to the incoming call history state ID “S02”. The message “There was an incoming call while entering the book” is displayed on the screen to notify the user of the operation status when there is an incoming call.

  Further, if the voice call during high-speed movement is not answered, the state ID “S03” indicating “high-speed movement” is stored in the incoming call history, and the corresponding notification flag is set to “1”. Thereafter, when the state where the high speed movement is enabled and the incoming call notification which is not moving at high speed is enabled, the high speed reference is made with reference to the state ID “S03” of the incoming call history whose flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c. The message “There was an incoming call” is displayed on the screen to notify the user of the operation status when there is an incoming call.

  In addition, when not responding to an incoming voice call during low voltage, the state ID “S04” indicating “under low voltage” is stored in the incoming call history, and the corresponding notification flag is set to “1”. Thereafter, when the power supply voltage is changed from the low voltage state to the normal voltage state, based on the incoming call history state ID “S04” in which the notification flag is “1” in the incoming call history storage unit 20c, “the incoming call is received during the low voltage”. The message “There was” is displayed on the screen to notify the user of the operation state when an incoming call is received.

  By embodying such various notification modes, it is possible to check the operation state (when watching TV, entering the address book, moving at high speed, during low voltage, etc.) when there is an incoming call. More specifically, the following effects (a) to (f) are obtained.

(A) The user can confirm the specific operating state that was operating when an incoming call was received after the incoming call. This can be useful for explaining the situation at the time of incoming call when making a call or sending mail to the other party.
(B) Instead of every time, the user may confirm later when the situation (operation state) at the time of the incoming call can be assumed later, such as when the incoming call is not notified or when the incoming call is not answered. it can.
(C) When a specific operation state is completed, the user can check without depending on the operation.
(D) When making a call to the other party, the user can confirm the operation state when there is an incoming call from the other party without operating.
(E) It is possible to confirm later that the state of the communication terminal was not in a state suitable for communication (during high-speed movement or low voltage) when there was an incoming call. This can be useful for explaining the situation at the time of incoming call when making a call or sending mail to the other party.
(F) When an operation state suitable for communication is reached, confirmation can be made without depending on the user's operation.

In the above-described embodiment, as an example of the operation state when there is an incoming call, TV broadcast output, address book input, high-speed movement, and low voltage are mentioned, but the gist of the present invention is these operations. It is not limited to the state, and it goes without saying that it can be applied to the operation states of various functions provided in the communication terminal 100 such as during mail creation, music data playback, digital camera activation, video game operation, browser activation, etc. .
In addition, when notifying the user of the operation state at the time of incoming call based on the state ID of the incoming call history, a message such as “There was an incoming call while outputting TV broadcast” is displayed on the screen and stored in the incoming call history. The incoming date and time, name, telephone number, mail address, and mail text may be further displayed on the screen.
