The above-described wireless telephone device master unit 100 and the slave unit 113 constitute a wireless telephone device.

The operation of the control means 101 will now be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. The flowchart of FIG. 5A illustrates the “child device data reception process” executed by the control unit 101 when the voice / control data modulation / demodulation unit 109 receives control data from the child device 113 via the antenna 112 and the transmission / reception unit 110. This shows the reception interrupt processing called. In step 202, the control means 101 inputs the received data from the voice / control data modulation / demodulation means 109, and thereafter terminates the reception interrupt processing.

Next, in accordance with the flowchart shown in FIG.
A process called "call control process" for managing the state of incoming calls, dial calls, and calls will be described.

At step 205, the control means 101 determines the state of the slave unit. If the state is "on-hook state", the process proceeds to the next step 206 at which bell detection is determined. Step 206
Then, the bell detecting means 104 determines whether or not the bell is being detected. If the bell is not being detected, the control means 101 causes the voice / control data modulating / demodulating means 109, the transmitting / receiving means 110, and the child 112 to transmit the A “bell stop request” is transmitted to the terminal 113. If it is determined in step 206 that the bell is being detected, a "bell sounding request" is transmitted to slave unit 113 (step 208).
The control means 101 executes step 207 or step 2
When step 08 is executed, it is determined in step 209 whether or not “off-hook” is performed based on the data received from the slave unit 113. When the control means 101 determines that the received data is “off-hook”, it executes the office line connection in the next step 210 and transmits an “off-hook completion notification” to the slave unit 113 in step 211. After that, the control unit 101 returns to step 205 and executes the above-described processes again. On the other hand, if the control unit 101 determines in step 209 that the data received from the slave unit 113 is not “off-hook”, the process proceeds to step 210 and step 2.
The processing jumps from step 11 to step 205.

On the other hand, at step 205, the control means 101
When it is determined that the current state of the slave unit 113 is the “off-hook state”, the process proceeds to the next step 212,
It is determined whether or not the handset 113 has transitioned to the on-hook state based on the data received from the handset 113. If the received data is "off-hook", the control means 101 determines in a next step 213 whether or not the end signal detection means 107 detects the end signal transmitted from the central office exchange. If is detected, the process proceeds to step 216, and if not, the process proceeds to step 214. Step 21
In step 4, the control means 101 determines whether or not the data received from the slave unit 113 is "dial data". If the data is dial data, the control means 101 transmits a DTMF signal from the dial transmission means 106 to the station line 103 in step 215. If it is determined that the data is not dial data in step 214, step 215 is jumped.

If the control unit 101 determines in step 212 that the slave unit 113 has shifted to the on-hook state from the received data, or determines in step 213 that the end-of-call signal has been detected, the line interface unit 108 In step 216, the station line 103 is released in order to enter the standby state, and an "on-hook completion notification" is transmitted to the slave unit 113 in step 217. After that, the control means 101
Returning to step 205, the above-described steps are executed according to the received data and the detection data.

The operation of the control means 301 will now be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS.

The flowchart of FIG. 2A is a process which is started by the control means 301 when the voice / control data modulation / demodulation means 310 receives control data from the slave unit 314. Steps 402 and 403 correspond to those in FIG. Steps 202 and 203 of “Slave device data reception processing”.

Next, a process called "call control process" for managing the state of the slave unit 314 and the station line 303 of the control means 301, such as standby, incoming call, dialing, and talking, will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 2B.

The control means 301 firstly proceeds to step 405
The current operation mode of the base unit is determined at, and if it is operating in the “cordless mode”, the process proceeds to the next step 406,
If the mobile phone is operating in the "cellular mode", the flow shifts to step 421 to execute a call process dedicated to the cellular mode. If it is determined in step 405 that the operation mode of the master unit is the “cordless mode”, it is determined in the next step 406 whether the current state of the slave unit is “off-hook state” or “on-hook state” If it is in the “on-hook state”, the process proceeds to the next step 407 for bell detection determination of the station line 303. When the bell detection is determined in step 407, the control unit 301
Determines whether the bell detecting means 304 is detecting the bell, and if not, sends control data of "bell stop request" to the slave 314 via the slave communication interface 312 in step 408. I do. If the bell is being detected in step 407, in step 409,
The control data of “bell ringing request” is sent to the CPU 14.

Next, at step 410, the control means 301 sends the slave 31 via the slave communication interface 312.
Then, it is determined whether or not it is “off-hook” based on the received data received from No. 4. If it is determined that the received data is "off hook", in the next step 411, the point a and the point c are connected by the audio signal path switching means 309,
Others are open. In step 412, the control means 301
The station line connection / release unit 305 of the station line interface unit 308 is set to the connected state for the response connection to the station line 303. In step 413, the control means 301
To the slave unit 314, and the state of the slave unit 314 shifts to the "off-hook state".
Returning to 5, the above-described processing is executed again. If it is determined in step 410 that the data received from the slave unit 314 is not “off-hook”, the process from step 411 to step 413 is jumped, and the process returns to the first step 405.

If it is determined in step 406 that the current state of the slave unit 314 is "off-hook state",
The process proceeds to step 414 to determine whether or not the slave 314 has shifted from the “off-hook state” to the “on-hook state” based on the received data from the slave 314. If the received data remains in the "off-hook state", the next step 4
Step 15 is performed, and it is determined whether or not the end signal detection unit 307 detects the end signal. If the end signal is detected, the process proceeds to step 418. If the end signal is not detected, it is determined in step 416 whether or not the data received from the slave unit 314 is “dial data”. A DTMF signal is transmitted from the dial transmitting means 306, and thereafter, the process returns to step 405.

On the other hand, if the control means 301 determines in step 414 that the slave unit 314 has shifted to the “on-hook state” from the received data or determines in step 415 that the “end-of-call signal has been detected”, In step 418, the line interface means 308 is used to release the line 303.
Release the local line connection / release means 305 of step 419.
Release all the signal paths of the audio signal path switching means 309, and transmit control data of "notice of completion of on-hook" to the slave unit 314 in step 420, and then return to step 405, and explained above. Perform each step again.

If the current operation mode is the "cellular mode" at step 405, the control means 30
The process of step 1 proceeds to step 421, where the bell line detecting means 304 of the line interface means 308 outputs the local line 303.
It is determined whether or not there is a bell incoming call. If there is a bell incoming call, the control means 301 connects the contact a and the contact b with the voice signal path switching means 309 in step 426, prepares the message output of the message output means 317, and in the next step 427, the office line interface means The station line 303 is connected by the station line connection / release means 305 of step 308, and step 4
At 28, the message stored in the message storage means 318 is output via the message output means 317. If the incoming call bell is not detected in step 421, the process proceeds to step 422. If the end signal is detected by the end signal detection unit 307, the control unit 301 proceeds to the next step 423, and the message output operation of the message output unit 317 is performed. The station line is stopped and the station line 303 is released by the station line connection / release means 305 in step 424.
At 25, the entire audio band signal path is opened by the audio signal path switching means 309.

Next, in accordance with the flowchart of FIG. 3, the electric field strength detecting means 315 detects the electric field strength when communicating with the slave unit 314, and the control means 30 detects the electric field strength from the output result.
1 judges the operation mode of the base unit 300, and executes the "call control process".
A process called “electric field strength monitoring process” that functions to switch the flow of the process will be described.

In step 602, the control means 301 determines the electric field intensity information from the electric field intensity detecting means 315. If the electric field intensity is equal to or higher than a predetermined level, the condition for shifting the parent device 300 to the "cordless mode" is set. On the other hand, if it is equal to or lower than the predetermined level, it is determined that the condition for shifting to the “cellular mode” is satisfied. The above condition is a condition in which the judgment condition is satisfied, and is not a shift decision.

If the electric field strength is strong, the next step 6
03, the control means 301 determines the current operation mode of the base unit 300, and if the operation mode is the "cordless mode", the "cordless mode" operation state is continued and step 6
In step 09, the “cordless mode” is reset to confirm the operation state, and then the processing is terminated.

On the other hand, if master device 300 is operating in the “cellular mode”, it is determined in step 604 whether or not the “operation mode switching monitoring timer” has exceeded a prescribed value. Proceed to the next step 605,
The “operation mode switching monitoring timer” is added, and “cellular mode” is checked in step 606 for confirmation.
Is reset, and the process ends. If the “operation mode switching monitoring timer” has exceeded the specified value in step 604, the “operation mode switching monitoring timer” is deleted, and the process proceeds to step 608. In step 608, the control unit 301 determines whether a message is being output from the message output unit 317 to the local line 303 via the local line interface unit 308 and the modular jack 302. if there is,
In order to switch to the incoming call state to the cordless handset 314 in the cordless telephone mode operation as it is, the process proceeds to step 610 to stop the message output operation. In a state where voice band signal transfer can be performed between the office line connection / release means 305 and the voice / control data modulation / demodulation means 310, the caller and the slave unit 314 in the cordless telephone mode are set.
Prepare the communication path for reconnecting with. During this connection switching, the sound is temporarily silenced. During this time, the connection can be switched by the audio signal path switching means 309 to be used for transmitting a hold sound or a hold message. In step 612, the control means 301 sends a "bell ringing request" notifying the incoming call to the office line 303 to the slave unit 314 operating in the cellular telephone mode.
In 9, the transition of the parent device 300 to the “cordless mode” is determined, and the process ends. If the message is not being output in step 608, the control means 301 jumps a series of processes from step 610 to step 612, and determines in step 609 to shift to the “cordless mode”.

If the electric field strength is equal to or lower than the predetermined level in step 602, the flow shifts to step 613, where the control means 301 determines the current operation mode of the base unit 300,
If it is the "cellular mode", the "cellular mode" operation state is continued as it is, and the process proceeds to step 606, where the "cellular mode" is reset to confirm the operation state, and then the processing is terminated. If base device 300 is operating in the “cordless mode”, it is determined in step 614 whether or not the “operation mode switching monitoring timer” has exceeded a prescribed value.
The process proceeds to step S15, where the addition processing of the “operation mode switching monitoring timer” is performed. In step 609, the “cordless mode” is reset for confirmation, and the processing ends.

In step 614, if the "operation mode switching monitoring timer" has exceeded the specified value, the "operation mode switching monitoring timer" is deleted.
The process proceeds to the dial / calling determination of No. 16. Step 61
The control means 301 determines whether the dial sending means 306 of the office line interface means 308 is dialing or the office line connection / release means 305 is connected to the office line 303 for a call in the dialing / calling state determination 6. If it is determined that there is no dialing or telephone call, the process proceeds to step 606,
The operation mode of master device 300 is determined to be “cellular mode”.

At step 616, if the control means 301 determines that dialing is in progress or a call is in progress, at step 617, the dial sending means 30 of the office line interface means 308.
6 is stopped, and in step 618 the entire communication path of the voice signal path switching means 309 is opened. In step 619, the connection of the office line 303 is opened by the office line connection / opening means 305 of the office line interface means 308. Then, the process proceeds to step 606 to determine the operation mode of the parent device 300 as the “cellular mode”.
