Description

  The present invention relates to a terminal having a communication function. In particular, the present invention relates to a technique for presenting an appropriate telephone number or the like to a user according to the call time when the user makes a call or mail to a specific partner.

  In recent years, the ownership rate of mobile phones has increased, and the number of users who have a plurality of mobile phones has also increased. One reason for this is the increase in the number of users who use telephone numbers and e-mail addresses separately for private and corporate use. Including home telephones and office telephones, the number of connection destinations for communication partners is expected to increase in the future.

  In view of these circumstances, a mechanism for registering a plurality of telephone numbers and e-mail addresses for one communication partner is prepared in the cellular phone phone book. A user who uses a mobile phone also registers a plurality of telephone numbers and the like for one communication partner. As such a mobile phone, for example, one described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-106600 (Patent Document 1) is known.

  In addition, a technique for making this telephone directory easier to use has been proposed.

  For example, Patent Document 1 describes that, when redialing after an incoming call, another telephone number of the owner of the incoming telephone number is also retrieved from the telephone directory and displayed on the display. From this display, the user can select one telephone number and redial.

  Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-253128 (Patent Document 2) describes that the number of times the telephone has been called in the past (number of incoming calls) is recorded in the telephone directory for each caller telephone number. In the telephone set described in Patent Document 2, when a user designates a calling party, the telephone displays a plurality of telephone numbers of the calling party in descending order of reception times. This display makes it easy for the user to select a telephone number that the call partner frequently uses for a call with the user.

  Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-289398 (Patent Document 3) describes that a telephone directory in a mobile communication terminal records the number of outgoing calls for each day of the week for each of a plurality of telephone numbers of communication partners. When the user designates a partner, the portable communication terminal of Patent Document 3 displays a plurality of destination telephone numbers. This display order is the order of the number of calls to the call partner corresponding to the day of the week on which the call is made.

JP 2000-106600 A JP 2000-253128 A JP 2004-289398 A

  The function disclosed in Patent Document 3 sorts and displays a telephone directory based on outgoing call history. However, according to this method, the user cannot determine which telephone is to be called among the telephones held by the transmission partner and that the transmission partner can immediately respond at this time. This is because the outgoing call history is only a record that the user himself / herself has sent to the other party at the discretion of the user. That is, this outgoing call history does not include information indicating whether the other party wants to use a private telephone or a corporate telephone at the present time. For example, when a user calls a communication partner on Monday but a family member answers the call, this call is recorded as a call history.

  The function disclosed in Patent Document 3 sorts and displays the telephone numbers of communication partners based on the outgoing call history. In addition, this display is changed according to the day of the week transmitted by the user. However, when the following example is considered, it is difficult to say that this method can also present an appropriate telephone number or the like to the user in a timely manner. Here, the timely and appropriate telephone number means a telephone number that is likely to be received by the communication partner at the time of transmission of the owner among telephones possessed by the communication partner.

  For example, let us consider a case where a call partner belongs to a plurality of companies and uses different phone numbers at different places for each day of the week and / or time. In this case, even on the same day of the week, the telephone numbers from which the other party can immediately receive a call are different.

  Even just considering this example, it can be seen that Patent Document 3 cannot easily present an appropriate telephone number or the like to the user in a timely manner. This defect is present not only in mobile phones but also in terminals having communication functions, such as fixed telephones. Also, the techniques described in Patent Documents 1 and 2. Similar issues remain.

  Moreover, such a problem exists not only in the telephone but also in the e-mail. In recent years, there is an increasing tendency to prohibit the transfer of electronic mail received by personal computers in the company to personal mobile phones. This tendency means that this defect also exists in e-mail.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a technique for reducing such problems and presenting a user with an appropriate destination telephone number (generally, a destination address) in a timely manner.

  The communication terminal according to the present invention counts the number of incoming calls from the communication partner for each time zone and day of the week that the communication partner has transmitted to the communication terminal in the past, and stores the destination address such as a telephone directory as usage frequency information Accumulate in the department. When the user designates a communication partner at the time of outgoing call, the communication terminal displays a destination address with a large track record of receiving a call from this communication partner. This display order may be the order in which the number of incoming calls is large on the day of the week and the time of the call, or only one may be presented.

  The present invention provides the following effects.

  The present invention displays a transmission destination address that is likely to be immediately received by the communication partner based on the result of counting from the outgoing / incoming record from the communication partner in the past. In addition, the communication terminal according to the present invention displays a timely and appropriate destination address at the time of outgoing call even if the user does not perform a special operation for setting the destination address. When there are a plurality of displays, the user can select a destination address.

  Therefore, the user can select a transmission destination address that is likely to be immediately received by the communication partner without performing any special setting or operation.

  Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following, an embodiment of the present invention will be described by taking a mobile phone as an example. However, the present invention can be applied to all communication terminals having a communication function, for example, a fixed telephone. It will be obvious.

[Example 1]
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration example of a mobile phone according to the present invention.

  This mobile phone includes a key input unit 10, a display unit 20, a wireless communication unit 30, a control unit 40, a mailer 50, and a telephone directory 60.

  The user uses the wireless communication unit 30, the control unit 40, and the mailer 50 by operating the key input unit 10 while viewing the display on the display unit 20.

  As will be described later, the telephone directory 60 registers a plurality of destination addresses (telephone numbers, mail addresses, etc.) for each communication partner. Further, the telephone directory 60 stores, for each destination address, a value obtained by counting the number of incoming calls from this destination address in the past for each day of the week and time period in the usage frequency information section as usage frequency information. . Note that this telephone book may be recorded together with the communication partner's home address, work address, etc., in the same manner as a normal telephone book. In addition, this telephone directory may be provided in the mobile phone or may be provided in the SIM card.

The wireless communication unit 30 transmits and receives voice signals and electronic mail. The user operates the key input unit 10 and can create a transmission mail using the mailer 50 via the control unit 40. Further, the user can read the received e-mail displayed on the display unit 20. Moreover, it cannot be overemphasized that a display part can display a communication other party address candidate.
The control unit 40 has different processing contents for each function. The control unit 40 includes an incoming call control unit 42 that performs processing when an incoming call is received, a transmission control unit 48 that performs processing at the time of outgoing call, a mail control unit 47 for sending and receiving mail, an incoming day of the week and an incoming call. It has a counter control unit 44 that counts the time zone and stores it in the telephone directory as usage frequency information, and a usage frequency control unit 45 that processes the usage frequency information.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 2, the operation when the mobile phone of FIG. 1 receives will be described with a focus on the operation of the counter control unit 44. FIG. 2 is a flowchart for explaining the operation when the mobile phone of FIG. 1 receives an incoming call.

  When there is an incoming call to the mobile phone, the incoming call control unit 42 is the transmission source in step S111 of FIG. That is, the sender telephone number is confirmed. Next, in step S112, the incoming call control unit 42 determines whether or not the transmission source telephone number is registered in the phone book (PB). If the determination result is “No”, the incoming call control unit 42 performs normal incoming call processing in step S120. Since this normal incoming call processing is well known to those skilled in the art, detailed description thereof is omitted.

  If the determination result in step S112 is “Yes”, the mobile phone confirms the confirmation of the data storage location in the telephone directory 60 in step S113. That is, it is confirmed whether the transmission destination telephone directory data is stored in the mobile phone or in the SIM card.

  Next, in step S114, the mobile phone confirms the location number where the transmission source telephone number is stored, that is, the location number. In step S115, the mobile phone confirms the item number of the registered phone book from the phone number registered in the source location number.

  As will be described later, in this embodiment, the telephone directory 60 has an incoming day counter for counting the incoming day of the week and an incoming time counter for counting the incoming time for each item number.

  In step S116, the counter control unit 44 of the mobile phone acquires the day of the week at the time of reception. This day of the week is obtained from a timer provided in the mobile phone. In step S117, the counter control unit 44 accumulates the value “1” in the day of the week counter column of the corresponding item number.

In step S118, the counter control unit 44 acquires a value indicating the received time zone. This value is also obtained from the timer. In step S119, the counter control unit 44 accumulates the value “1” in the time counter column of the corresponding item number and time zone.
In this way, the counter control unit 44 updates the telephone directory usage frequency information for each incoming call.

  When step S119 ends, the incoming call control unit 42 performs normal incoming call processing.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 3, the operation at the time of outgoing call of the mobile phone of FIG. 1, in particular, the operation of the use frequency control unit 45 will be described. FIG. 3 is a flowchart for explaining the operation at the time of outgoing call of the mobile phone of FIG.

  When the mobile phone user makes a call with the other party registered in the phone book, the transmission destination is selected. This selection may be performed by selecting from a telephone directory or searching for a name by redial.

  In step S311, the usage frequency control unit 45 acquires information indicating a transmission partner. In step S312, the usage frequency control unit 45 acquires the day of the week from the clock information in the mobile phone. Moreover, the usage frequency control part 45 acquires the value which shows the present time slot | zone by step S313. An example of this value is shown in FIG.

  As will be described later, in this embodiment, items in which telephone numbers are registered in the telephone directory 60 are item numbers 3 to 8. Therefore, in this embodiment, up to six telephone numbers can be registered for one communication partner. For this reason, in step S314, the initial value of the loop parameter (N) is set to “3”.

  Selection from these six candidates is performed as follows based on the usage frequency information registered for the six candidates.

  In step S315, the usage frequency control unit 45 reads the value of the incoming day counter of item number N corresponding to the day of the week acquired in step S312 into the register A. Next, in step S316, the usage frequency control unit 45 reads the value of the incoming time counter of the item number N corresponding to the time zone information acquired in step S312 into the register B.

  In step S317, the usage frequency control unit 45 adds the values of the register A and the register B, obtains the usage frequency information value of the item number N, and stores the addition result in the register N_C. The registers A and B and the register N_C (N = 3, 4,..., 8) are registers built in the usage frequency control unit 45.

  In step S318, the usage frequency control unit 45 determines whether or not the value of the loop parameter N is 8. If the determination result is “No”, the usage frequency control unit 45 determines that the loop parameter N is set in step S319. Increase the value by one. Thereafter, the process of the usage frequency control unit 45 returns to step S315.

  Through the processing from step S315 to S319, the usage frequency information value N_C (N = 3, 4,..., 8) for the item numbers 3 to 8 is obtained.

  When the determination result in step S318 is “Yes”, the usage frequency control unit 45 compares the usage frequency information values N_C (N = 3, 4,..., 8) in step S320 and detects the maximum value. .

  In step S321, the usage frequency control unit 45 displays the telephone number of the item number corresponding to this maximum value on the display unit.

  The mobile phone user makes a call to the phone number displayed by pressing the Send key (step S322).

  FIG. 4 shows an example of the contents of the phone book 60. FIG. 4 shows the contents of location number 1 which is a location including telephone book information related to the counterpart AAA. In FIG. 4, the name of AAA is registered in the input information column of item number 1. In the input information column of item number 2, the reading name of AAA's name is registered. AAA's telephone number is registered in the input information columns of item numbers 3 to 8, and AAA's e-mail address is registered in the input information columns of item numbers 9 and 10.

  Item numbers 3 to 10 are provided with a usage frequency information section in which the number of incoming calls from the address in the past is recorded. In FIG. 4, the usage frequency information part is divided into an incoming day counter and an incoming time counter. As described above, the incoming day counter counts the number of past incoming calls from the telephone number for each day of the week. The incoming time counter counts the number of past incoming calls from the telephone number or the like for each time zone. This time zone is defined as shown in FIG. 5, for example.

  This embodiment will be described more specifically with reference to the telephone directory list in FIG.

Here, the present embodiment will be described by taking as an example a case where AAA registered in FIG. 4 makes a call using the item number 3 in FIG.
As personal information of Mr. AAA, the telephone directory registers home phone numbers, mobile phone numbers, company phone numbers, and other phone numbers in item numbers 3 to 8.

  For example, it is assumed that the caller telephone number of the incoming call to this mobile phone is the telephone number of item number 3, the day of the week on which the incoming call is received is Monday, and the time of receiving the incoming call is 21:00. In this case, the counter control unit 44 adds the value “1” to the Monday value “2” of the incoming day counter of item number 3 (step S117 in FIG. 2). Further, the counter control unit 44 adds the value “1” to the value “15” of the time zone 6 of the incoming time counter of the item number 3 (step S119 in FIG. 2).

  Next, this embodiment will be described for a case where a telephone call is made to AAA at 15:00 on Sunday.

  When the user designates AAA as the destination, the usage frequency control unit 45 performs the following processing for each of the item numbers 3 to 8.

  First, the usage frequency control unit 45 reads the value “15” in the Sunday field from the incoming day counter of item number 3 (step S315 in FIG. 3). Next, the usage frequency control unit 45 reads the value “15” in the column of the time zone 4 from the incoming time counter of the item number 3 (step S316 in FIG. 3). Then, the usage frequency control unit 45 adds these values “15” and “15”, and stores the addition result “30” in the register 3_C (step S317 in FIG. 3).

The usage frequency control unit 45 performs the same processing for the item numbers 4 to 8. As a result, the following value N_C (N = 3, 4,..., 8) is obtained as the usage frequency value of item number 3-8.
3_C = 30, 4_C = 40, 5_C = 6,
6_C = 0, 7_C = 0, 8_C = 0
Next, the usage frequency control unit 45 detects the maximum value among these values, and obtains the item number N corresponding to the maximum value. In this case, N = 4.

  From this result, when the usage frequency control unit 45 makes a call to the telephone number (090-5678-1234) of item number 4 at the current time (ie, 15:00 on Sunday), AAA makes a call with a high probability. I can recognize it. Therefore, the usage frequency control unit 45 displays this telephone number on the display unit 20 (step 321 in FIG. 3). The mobile phone user makes a call to the automatically selected telephone number by pressing the Send key (step S322 in FIG. 3).

  In the present embodiment, it is possible to select a call number with a high probability that the other party will receive based on the other party's telephone number, the incoming day information, and the incoming time information of the call that the mobile phone has received in the past. Therefore, the user can automatically select an appropriate telephone number in a timely manner without performing special presetting or special operation.

[Example 2]
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described.

  In the first embodiment described above, the present invention has been described only for the telephone function of the mobile phone. However, in the second embodiment, the present invention is described only for the electronic mail function of the mobile phone.

  The apparatus configuration of the second embodiment is the same as that shown in FIG.

  The operation of the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 6 shows an example of a telephone directory used for explaining the second embodiment. FIG. 7 is a flowchart for explaining the operation at the time of outgoing call according to the second embodiment. In the flowchart of FIG. 7, steps denoted by the same reference numerals as those in the flowchart of FIG. 3 have the same contents as the steps described in FIG. In addition, since the operation | movement at the time of the incoming call of Example 2 is the same as that of Example 1, description about this operation | movement is abbreviate | omitted.

  FIG. 6 shows a part related to Mr. ZZZ in the telephone directory. As the personal information of Mr. ZZZ, the telephone book registers two mail addresses in item numbers 9 and 10.

  When sending a mail to Mr. ZZZ, the user starts up the mailer 50 in FIG. The user operates the key input unit 10 to create a subject and a mail text, and designates Mr. ZZZ as a destination of this mail (step S711).

  In response to this designation, the usage frequency control unit 45 acquires the day of the week information and the time information (specifically, time zone information) at the current time in steps S312 and S313. Here, the current time is 20:00 on Tuesday (that is, time zone 5).

  As shown in FIG. 6, Mr. ZZZ's phone book information is registered in Phone location number 2 of the phone book. In the phone book. The mail address is registered in item numbers 9 and 10. For this reason, in step S714, the initial value of the loop parameter N is set to the value “9”.

In step S315, the usage frequency control unit 45 reads the value in the Tuesday column from the usage frequency information of the item number N. In step S316, the value in the column for time zone 5 is read. In step S317, both values are summed up to obtain a use frequency value N_C (N = 9, 10) for item number N. By the processes of steps S714, S314, S315, S316, S317, “S718, S719, the following two usage frequency values are obtained for the two mail addresses of ZZZ.
9_C = 30, 10_C = 0
In step S320, the usage frequency control unit 45 detects the maximum value of these numerical values. In step S321, the usage frequency control unit 45 displays the mail address “zzz1@xxx.xxx” corresponding to the maximum value on the display unit and notifies the mailer of the mail address. The mailer sets this mail address in the destination address field.

  When the user depresses the Send key, the mailer transmits this mail (step S722).

As described above, in the second embodiment, it is possible to select an e-mail address with a high probability that the other party will receive immediately. Therefore, the user can send an e-mail to an address that is likely to be immediately received by the other party with a simple operation.
[Example 3]
Next, with reference to FIGS. 8, 9 and 10, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of the contents of the usage frequency information part of one telephone number in the telephone directory used in the third embodiment. FIG. 9 is a flowchart for explaining the operation at the time of reception in the third embodiment. FIG. 10 is a flowchart for explaining the operation at the time of outgoing call according to the third embodiment.

  FIG. 8 shows the usage frequency information from the telephone number of a specific called party. That is, the telephone directory of the second embodiment has usage frequency information from a specific destination for each telephone number. As shown in FIG. 8, the telephone book usage frequency information section in the second embodiment has a two-dimensional counter configuration relating to time zones and days of the week. This usage frequency information part stores the past number of incoming calls since the incoming call as two-dimensional information of the incoming day of the week and the incoming time zone. In the third embodiment, FIG. 8 corresponds to the usage frequency information of the telephone number of item number 4 in FIG.

    Next, with reference to FIG. 9, the operation at the time of reception in the third embodiment will be described. In addition, in each step of FIG. 9, since the step which attached | subjected the same step number as FIG. 2 performs the same operation | movement as the step demonstrated in FIG. 2, description about the step which performs the same operation | movement as FIG. , Omitted. In FIG. 9, the broken line portion A in FIG. 2 is replaced with a broken line portion A ′.

  In FIG. 9, the counter control unit 44 acquires day information at the time of incoming call from a timer built in the mobile phone in step S <b> 901. In step S902, the counter control unit 44 acquires time zone information at the time of incoming call from the timer. In step S903, the counter control unit 44 adds 1 to the two-dimensional counter that stores the usage frequency information of the item number confirmed in step S116. That is, the value “1” is added to the column corresponding to the day-of-week information acquired in step S901 and the time zone information acquired in step S902 of the usage frequency information.

  For example, let us consider a case where the usage frequency information corresponding to the caller's outgoing telephone number is shown in FIG. 8, and the incoming day of the week is Saturday, and the incoming time is the time zone 6. In this case, since the value in the field for Saturday time zone 6 in FIG. 8 is “8”, the counter control unit 44 changes the value in this field to “9”.

  In this way, the usage frequency information of the third embodiment is generated. In the first and second embodiments, the usage frequency information separately counts the incoming day of the week and the incoming time zone. The first and second embodiments have an advantage over the third embodiment in that a memory for storing usage frequency information may have a small capacity.

Next, with reference to FIG. 10, the operation | movement at the time of transmission of a 3rd Example is demonstrated.
In addition, in each step of FIG. 10, since the step which attached | subjected the same step number as FIG. 3 performs the same operation | movement as the step demonstrated in FIG. 3, description about the step which performs the same operation | movement as FIG. , Omitted. In FIG. 10, the broken line part B in FIG. 3 is replaced with a broken line part B ′.

  10, the usage frequency control unit 45 reads the usage frequency value corresponding to the loop parameter N based on the current day of the week information and the current time zone information acquired in step S311 in step S1101. That is, let us consider a case where the usage frequency information of the telephone number corresponding to the value of the loop parameter is FIG. 8, the current day of the week is Sunday, and the current time zone is time zone 4. In this case, the usage frequency control unit 45 reads the value “5” of the time zone 4 on Sunday. The same applies to telephone numbers corresponding to other loop parameters.

  In the first and second embodiments, at the time of outgoing call, the day of the week counter and the value of the time zone counter are added to obtain the use frequency value of the outgoing day of the week and the outgoing time zone for each destination telephone number. For this reason, when the communication partner has a habit of making most of the calls only on a specific day of the week, this usage frequency value is effectively determined by the time zone information on this specific day of the week. Can happen. In addition, when the communication partner has a habit of making most of the calls only in a specific time zone, this usage frequency value is effectively determined by the time zone information of this specific time zone. Can happen. Therefore, although the capacity of the memory for storing the usage frequency information is larger in the third embodiment than in the first and second embodiments, the transmission is larger than that in the first and second embodiments. Sometimes the user is provided with a timely and appropriate destination address.

  In the first to third embodiments described above, an example in which only one destination address with the maximum use frequency value is presented has been described. The present invention may be modified so that a plurality of usage frequency values are presented in descending order. In this modified embodiment, the user can select one address from a plurality of destination addresses that are presented and send the selected address. Also, if the usage frequency value is displayed together with the telephone number at the time of presentation, the user can easily select the destination address.
