Description of the Related Art A paging receiving apparatus stores a different calling number for each paging receiving apparatus, and inputs the calling number of the paging receiving apparatus to be called from a telephone dial. Is transmitted from the radio base station of the telephone station, is received by the paging receiving device to be called, and notifies the user of a buzzer sound. In recent years, it has been considered that this paging receiver transmits not only a buzzer but also a simple message at the same time and displays the message, but the content of this message is Telephone numbers are considered. However, even if the phone number is sent and displayed when calling this buzzer alert, just looking at the phone number does not tell who wants to be contacted,
There was a problem that it had to be checked one by one with a notebook or the like, which was very troublesome. On the other hand, various data banks have been developed in which a plurality of sets of names and names and telephone numbers are stored, and initials of the names and names are input or data is scrolled to display a desired name and telephone number. I have. However, even in such a data bank, there has not been a conventional data bank combined with a message receiving device and sharing a part of a circuit to have both a data bank function and a message receiving function. An object of the present invention is to provide message information or a part of message information.
When receiving the telephone number as part, not only the telephone number received, and to provide a message receiving apparatus can know the telephone number is Whose easy. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Message information or a subset of message information
The main point is that the name corresponding to the telephone number received as a part is retrieved from the data bank storage means, and the retrieved name is displayed together with the telephone number. An embodiment will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a main body of a paging receiver having a data bank function and a calculator function. A liquid crystal display device 2 is provided on the upper surface of the main body 1, and numerical keys 3a and calculation keys 3b are provided on a lower side. , An AC (all clear) key 3c, etc., a buzzer reset key 4, and a power switch 5. The numerical keys 3a and the operation keys 3b are used for inputting various formulas and executing calculations. The AC key 3c clears the calculation formula and the calculation result, and when a message or name is displayed by paging reception, displays the calculation formula or the contents of the data bank displayed before reception again to return to the original state. Used for The buzzer reset key 4 is for stopping the buzzer sound that is sounded by receiving the paging. The power switch 5 is a switch for turning on the power. On the other hand, a lid 6 is provided on the right edge of the surface of the main body 1 of the paging receiver via a hinge 7 so as to be opened and closed with respect to the main body 1 of the paging receiver. An alphabet key 8 is provided on the inner surface of the lid 6. The alphabet key 8 and the numerical key 3a of the calculator key 3
It is used when a plurality of sets of names, for example, names and telephone numbers corresponding to the names are stored in a data bank memory described later. As shown in FIG. 1, the liquid crystal display device 2 is provided with a two-stage display unit, and the upper side has a dot matrix display configuration in which characters such as names and calculation formulas are displayed. The lower side has a "day" shaped segment display configuration in which a telephone number, a calculation result, and a numerical value are displayed. Next, the circuit configuration will be described with reference to FIG. RF
(Radio frequency) The receiver 12 receives, via the antenna 11, a radio wave transmitted after being subjected to FM modulation. The waveform shaping circuit 13 demodulates the received radio wave into a digital signal and sends it to the paging controller 14. The paging controller 14 is a circuit that decodes data received from the waveform shaping circuit 13 and sets the data in the reception buffer 16. In this case, the transmission format of the paging system includes a preamble, a synchronization code, an address code word, a message code word, an idling code word, and the like.
The address code set in 5 (this is a code individually assigned to this paging receiver,
When the call is made, the paging controller 14 determines whether or not they match with each other. In addition, the reception flag register 17 is a circuit in which, when the values match, a paging controller 14 sets a reception flag indicating a reception state. The CPU 18 is a circuit for controlling all operations of the paging receiver according to a control program stored in the control ROM 20. When the reception flag “1” in the reception state is set in the reception flag register 17, the message code word in the reception data is decoded from the paging controller 14 and sent to the message memory 19 and written by the CPU 18. In this case, the address pointer (N) 30 stores the latest write address in the message memory 19, and indicates the number of data stored in the message memory 19. In this example, as shown in FIG. 3, the message memory 19 has a capacity enough to store the telephone numbers TN1 to TN5 for five persons. In this case, when the sixth telephone number is transmitted to the message memory 19, N = 1, and the first telephone number is cleared. The work memory 21 is a memory for storing various intermediate calculation results of the CPU 18 and the like. In this case, during the calculation, a calculation flag “1” indicating that the calculation is being performed is set in the calculation flag register 22. In the display memory 23, the calculation formula and the result data at this time, and the display data such as the transmitted message are written. These display data are sent to the liquid crystal display device 2 via the display driver 24 and displayed. The save memory 26 is a data bank memory 2
When the telephone number in 5 is set in the display memory 23 according to the call and displayed on the liquid crystal display device 2, in order to protect the display data in the display memory 23 before the call,
This is a memory to which the display data is transferred and temporarily saved. The buzzer driver 27 is a circuit for driving the buzzer 28 when a call is made. When the buzzer sounds, the CPU 18 controls the buzzer flag register 29.
Is set to the buzzer flag "1". As shown in FIG. 4, the data bank memory 25 stores names UM ₁ , UM ₂ ... And their telephone numbers VM ₁ , VM _2.
.. Are stored in a plurality of sets, and these data are preset by the above-mentioned alphabet key 8 and numerical key 3a. The search counter (M) 31 is used to search for the same telephone number as the telephone number sent as a message to the data bank memory 25, and the address pointer (L) 32 is used to search for the latest This is for storing the write address. The keyboard 33 shown in FIG. 2 includes the above-described calculator key 3, buzzer reset key 4, power switch 5, and alphabet key 8. Operation Next, the operation will be described. In this case, the data bank memory 2
It is assumed that a plurality of pairs of names and their telephone numbers have already been written in 5 using the numeric key 3a of the calculator key 3 and the alphabet key 8. First, the overall operation will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 5. The CPU 18 determines the presence or absence of a key input signal from the keyboard 33 (step A1), and if there is a key input signal, performs key processing corresponding to the key input signal. (Step A5). That is, when the key input signal is, for example, the signal of the numerical key 3a, the data is written into the work memory 21 as calculation formula data, or is written as a telephone number in the data bank memory 25, and is also sent to the display memory 23. Display data from the display driver 24
Is displayed on the liquid crystal display device 2 via. Also, an in-operation flag of “1” is set in the in-operation flag register 22. On the other hand, if there is no key input signal, reception processing as a paging receiver is performed (step A2), then display processing is performed (step A3), and buzzer processing is performed (step A4). Next, the above-described reception processing in step A2 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. Now, when a transmission radio wave comes, the radio wave is received by the RF receiver 12 via the antenna 11, demodulated and shaped by the waveform shaping circuit 13, converted into a digital signal, and converted into a paging controller 1.
4 is set in the reception buffer 16. At this time, the paging controller 14 determines whether or not the address code word of the received signal matches the address code in the ID ROM 15, and if so, sends the received signal to the CPU 18 and sets the reception flag register 17 to "1". The reception flag will be set. Then, the CPU 18 determines whether the reception flag of the reception flag register 17 is "1" (step B1). If not “1”, the process is terminated.
If it is "1", the message data (the telephone number in this example) received from the CPU 18 is read from the reception buffer 16 and written into the message memory 19 (step B).
2). Next, a buzzer flag "1" is set in the buzzer flag register 29 (step B3). Next, the data bank memory 25 is searched, and the message memory 1 is searched.
It is determined whether or not there is a phone number that matches the telephone number written in 9 (steps B4 and B5). Next, when a match is found, the data in the display memory 23 is sent to the save memory 26 for saving and protection (step B6), and the name and telephone number retrieved from the data bank memory 25 are displayed. Memory 2
3 for display (step B7). This way you can easily find out the name of the person you want to contact. On the other hand, if a match with the telephone number received this time is not found in the data bank memory 25, the evacuation process of step B8, which is the same as step B6, is performed, and the telephone number received this time is stored in the message. The data is read from the memory 19, sent to the display memory 23, and displayed (step B9). Here, the processing of steps B4 and B5 in FIG. 6 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG.
Data "1" is set in the search counter (M) 31 (step S1). Next, the VM (telephone number in the data bank memory 25) stored in the address area of the data bank memory 25 indicated by the data "1" of the search counter 31 becomes TN (the telephone number of the current reception in the message memory 19). ) Is determined (step S2). If they match, the process proceeds to step B6. If they do not match, the data of the search counter 31 is incremented by 1 and the search address of the data bank memory 25 is advanced by one. It is determined whether or not the value of the address pointer (L) 32 indicating the last address at which the data is stored has exceeded (step S4). If NO, the process returns to step S2 to continue the search processing of steps S2 to S4. If YES, the result is "no match" and the process proceeds to step B8. Next, the key processing of step A5 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. It is determined whether or not there is a key input (step C1). As a result, when there is a key input of the numerical key 3a and the operation key 3b, the operation flag register 22
Is set to "1" (step C2), then the calculation is performed, and the calculation result data is stored in the display memory 23.
To be displayed on the liquid crystal display device 2 (step C).
3). On the other hand, when the AC (all clear) key 3c is operated, that is, when the calculation is completed and the display is to be set to "0" or when the displayed reception message is to be deleted, the reception flag register at that time is set. It is determined whether or not the reception flag of No. 17 is "1" (step C4). If it is "1", this means that the AC key 3c has been operated to erase the received message. “0”
(Step C5), only the display memory 23 is cleared (step C6), and the data in the middle of the calculation saved in the save memory 26 is returned to the display memory 23 to resume the display, and the calculation is continued (step C5). Step C7). On the other hand, when it is determined in step C4 that the flag is not "1", that is, in this case, the AC key 3c is operated at the time of calculation, the calculation flag in the calculation flag register 22 is set to "0". (Step C8), and all the memories such as the display memory 23, the save memory 26, and the work memory 21 are cleared (Step C9). When the buzzer reset key 4 (see FIG. 1) is operated, the buzzer flag register 29 is reset to stop the buzzer sound (step C1).
0). Next, the buzzer process in step A4 will be described with reference to FIG. 9. It is determined whether or not the buzzer flag of the buzzer flag register 29 is "1" (step D1). The driver 27 is driven to sound a buzzer sound from the buzzer 28 (step D2). On the other hand, the sound is not sounded when it is no longer "1". Therefore, the buzzer sounding operation is performed by repeatedly executing the step D2. In the above embodiment, only five telephone numbers are stored in the message memory 19 at this time, but other simple messages such as callers may be stored. As described above in detail, according to the present invention, the name corresponding to the message information or the telephone number received as a part of the message information is retrieved from the data bank storage means, and the retrieved name is retrieved. Because it is displayed together with the phone number, the phone number is displayed based on the received phone number.
It is convenient to know not only the received phone number, which is most important when talking , but also prior to calling.
Information on who the telephone number belongs to is also simple and easy.
There is an advantage that it can be surely known.
