<Incoming call restriction service registration sequence>
In the incoming call restriction service registration sequence of FIG. 3, incoming terminal information is registered in the identification information management apparatus 20 from the transmission terminal 30 (for example, the mobile terminal 53 and identification information such as a telephone number = A1) via the communication control system 10. An access code issuance request is made to do this (step S1). At this time, as shown in FIG. 6, a message such as “Do you want to obtain an access code for registration?” Is displayed on the calling terminal 30.

  As a result, in the identification information management apparatus 20, the registration access code generation control unit 21 generates a registration access code (= D1) to be used when registration of the incoming call restriction service is started, and the calling terminal information (= A1). And the registration access code (= D1) are stored in the storage device 25, and the registration access code (= D1) is notified to the calling terminal 30. This is shown in FIG.

  Next, the calling terminal 30 acquires the registration access code (= D1) notified from the identification information management device 20 and stores it in the storage device 34, and accepts an incoming call by communication such as oral or infrared communication. The registration access code (= D1) is notified to the terminal 40 (for example, the mobile terminal 54, identification information such as a telephone number = B1) (step S2). This is shown in FIG.

  Next, the receiving terminal 40 accesses the identification information management apparatus 20 using the receiving terminal information (= B1) and the registration access code (= D1) acquired in step S2 (step S3). At this time, as shown in FIG. 8, a message such as “the access code permitting service registration is [D1]” is displayed on the transmitting terminal 30.

  As a result, in the identification information management device 20, the terminal identification number generation control unit 22 and the transmission terminal information (= A1) read from the storage device 25 corresponding to the registration access code (= D1) and the reception terminal information (= B1) is used to determine the terminal identification number (= C1), and the terminal information storage control unit 24 associates the receiving terminal information (= B1) with the calling terminal information (= A1) corresponding to the registration access code (= D1). ) And the terminal identification number (= C1) are stored in the storage device 25. This is shown in FIG.

  Thereafter, the registration access code (= D1) corresponding to the terminal identification number (= C1) is deleted from the storage device 25, and the terminal identification number (= C1) is notified to the transmitting terminal 30 and the receiving terminal (step S4). The transmitting terminal 30 and the receiving terminal 40 store the notified terminal identification number (= C1) in the storage devices 34 and 44 together with the name of the communication partner. At this time, as shown in FIG. 9, a message such as “Registration complete. Do you want to register the recipient [Mr. BB]” is displayed on the calling terminal 30, and “Registration complete. Registers the calling party” on the receiving terminal 40. Or [Mr. AA] "is displayed.

  In addition, even if the access code for registration is known to a third party by deleting the access code for registration from the storage device 25 after storing the terminal identification number in the storage device 25, the third party can recognize the terminal identification number. Can't get.

  In addition, a plurality of registration access codes are issued in response to a registration request from a calling terminal, a plurality of registration access codes are notified to a plurality of receiving terminals, and a plurality of terminal identification numbers are assigned by registration requests from each receiving terminal. You may make it memorize | store in the memory | storage device 25 and give incoming call permission to one transmission terminal from several incoming terminals.

<Outgoing sequence>
In the registration sequence of FIG. 4, the transmission terminal 30 performs a transmission process to the reception terminal 40 using the terminal identification number (= C1) of the reception terminal 40 previously stored in the storage device 34. The communication control unit 11 of the communication system 10 inquires of the transmission to the identification information management device 20 (step S11). At this time, as shown in FIG. 10, the user name “Mr. BB” of the receiving terminal 40 is displayed on the transmitting terminal 30.

  The call availability determination unit 23 of the identification information management device 20 searches the storage device 25 with the terminal identification number (= C1) and the caller terminal information (= A1), and acquires the callee terminal information (= B1) corresponding thereto. . If the incoming terminal information (= B1) can be acquired, communication with the incoming terminal 40 is permitted, and if the incoming terminal information (= B1) cannot be acquired, communication with the incoming terminal 40 is disabled (step S12).

  When the communication is impossible, the calling terminal 30 is notified via the communication system 10 that the incoming call restriction service is not possible. In the case of communication permission, the receiving terminal information (= B1) is notified to the communication system 10, and the communication control unit 11 calls the receiving terminal 40. At this time, as shown in FIG. 11, the user name “Mr. AA” of the calling terminal 30 is displayed on the receiving terminal 40. If the incoming terminal 40 responds to the call, the communication control unit 11 connects the line between the outgoing terminal 30 and the incoming terminal 40.

  In the above-described embodiment, the identification information management device 20 determines whether or not transmission is possible. However, the communication control unit 11 sends the terminal identification number (= C1) and transmission terminal information (= A1) from the identification information management device 20. May be obtained and the communication control unit 11 may determine whether or not to make a call.

<Incoming call restriction service release sequence>
In the incoming call restriction service release sequence of FIG. 5, the incoming terminal 40 makes an incoming call restriction service release request using the terminal identification number (= C1) stored in the storage device 44 and the incoming terminal information (= B1) of its own terminal as additional information. Send. The communication control system 10 receives the incoming call restriction service release request and transmits the incoming call restriction service release request to the identification information management device 20 (step S21). At this time, as shown in FIG. 12, a display such as “the other party whose service registration is to be canceled is“ Mr. AA ”” indicating the receiving terminal display name corresponding to the terminal identification number (= C1) is displayed on the receiving terminal 40.

  The terminal information storage control unit 24 of the identification information management device 20 has information corresponding to the terminal identification number (= C1) and the receiving terminal information (= B1), that is, the terminal identification number (= C1) and the receiving terminal information (= B1). The incoming call restriction service is canceled by deleting the calling terminal information (= A1) from the storage device 25.

  The identification information management device 20 notifies the receiving terminal 40 of the cancellation via the communication control system 10, and the receiving terminal 40 that has received the cancellation notification deletes the terminal identification number (= C1) from the storage device 44. (Step S22). At this time, as shown in FIG. 13, a message such as “AAA has been deregistered” is displayed on the receiving terminal 40.

  In this way, communication can be performed without telling the other party an identification number such as a telephone number, and since there is no need to tell the other party the telephone number, it is possible to prevent spreading of the telephone number. In addition, even if the terminal identification number spreads to third parties, the third party can not make a call even if the terminal identification number is used, so it is possible to reliably prevent incoming calls from third parties who want to reject incoming calls. .
