According to this configuration, it is possible to perform incoming call processing according to the outgoing call for incoming calls only for a predetermined period after the own terminal makes a call. Thereby, a special incoming call process can be performed only at a necessary time.

The incoming call processing means associates different incoming call sources and destinations with each other, and based on the correspondence, the incoming call destination received by the incoming call means is different from the incoming call source related to the incoming call received by the incoming call means. it determined that the destination of the outgoing call made by the calling means corresponding to the incoming source according to. According to this configuration, incoming call processing according to outgoing calls can be performed more flexibly, and user convenience can be improved.

  The incoming call processing means, when the incoming call processing is set to notify the incoming call without performing the voice output or vibration at the time of the incoming call, performs the voice output or vibration to notify the incoming call or cancels the setting. It is desirable to do. According to this configuration, the user can be surely and appropriately noticed the incoming call according to the outgoing call.

  The communication terminal has status information acquisition means for acquiring status information for determining the status of the user who owns the communication terminal, and whether or not the status information acquired by the status information acquisition means matches a preset condition. It is desirable to further include condition determining means for determining whether or not the transmission means performs transmission according to the determination by the condition determination means. According to this configuration, outgoing calls are automatically made according to the state of the user, and the user can be surely aware of incoming calls accordingly. Therefore, it is possible to make the user notice the incoming call according to the user's state.

  It is desirable to acquire at least one of status information acquisition means, information based on vibrations of the own device, sounds around the own device, and images around the own device as status information. According to this configuration, it is possible to appropriately make the automatic call according to the state of the user, and thus it is possible to make the user notice the incoming call according to the state of the user more appropriately.

  The communication terminal preferably further includes warning means for warning the user in accordance with the determination by the condition determination means. According to this configuration, the user can be made aware of an incoming call according to the user's condition, and for example, the user can be awakened when the user is sleeping.

  It is desirable that the condition determination means make a determination at a predetermined timing. According to this configuration, it is possible to make the user aware of an incoming call according to the user's state at a necessary timing (time zone) such as a working hour.

  By the way, the present invention can be described as an invention of a communication terminal as described above, and can also be described as an invention of an incoming call processing method as follows. This is substantially the same invention only in different categories, and has the same operations and effects.

  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of a user status transmission apparatus and a user status transmission method according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In the description of the drawings, the same elements are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted.

  FIG. 1 shows a mobile phone 10 that is a communication terminal according to the present embodiment. The mobile phone 10 is a device that is carried (possessed) by a user and has a communication function such as mobile communication. As will be described later, the mobile phone 10 acquires information related to the state of the user and performs processing according to the information. Specifically, information for determining whether or not the user of the mobile phone 10 is getting up is acquired, and the user is woken up according to the information, or the user's state (the user wakes up). To make a call to notify the user of whether or not the user is present. In addition, the mobile phone 10 receives an incoming call from another communication device (predetermined incoming call source), and performs incoming call processing according to the incoming call.

  FIG. 2 shows a hardware configuration of the mobile phone 10. As shown in FIG. 2, a mobile phone 10 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 101, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 102 and a ROM 103 (Read Only Memory) which are main storage devices, an operation unit 104, a wireless communication unit 105, a display. 106 and hardware such as a mobile communication antenna 107. In addition to the hardware described above, the cellular phone 10 includes hardware such as a pedometer 108, a microphone 109, a camera 110, a GPS signal receiving unit 111, and a GPS signal antenna 112. By operating these components, each function of the cellular phone 10 described later is exhibited.

  Subsequently, functions of the mobile phone 10 according to the present invention will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, the mobile phone 10 includes a state information acquisition unit 11, a condition determination unit 12, a transmission unit 13, a warning unit 14, an incoming unit 15, and an incoming processing unit 16. The In addition to the above, the mobile phone 10 also has a function as a normal mobile phone (not shown).

  The state information acquisition unit 11 is a state information acquisition unit that acquires state information for determining the state of the user. In the present embodiment, the state of the user is a state of whether or not the user is waking up (sleeping). The state information for determining the state of the user acquired by the state information acquisition unit 11 includes at least one of information based on vibration of the own device 10, sound around the own device 10, and an image around the own device. The vibration of the own device 10, the sound around the own device 10, and the image around the own device 10 usually change according to the user's state (environment and behavior in which the user is placed).

  For example, when the user gets up and walks with the mobile phone 10, the mobile phone 10 vibrates in response to the walk. If the user is sleeping, the mobile phone 10 does not vibrate. Also, when the user wakes up and turns on the power of a device that generates sound such as a television in the house, or when the user has a conversation with another person, the sound is generated. If the user is sleeping, usually no sound is generated. If the user gets up and photographs the newspaper of the day with the camera 110 of the mobile phone 10, the image of the newspaper of the day is acquired. Further, if there is movement in the image captured by the camera 110 of the mobile phone 10, it is considered that the user carrying the mobile phone 10 is moving and the user is getting up.

  Specifically, the status information acquisition unit 11 acquires status information using devices provided in the mobile phone 10 such as the pedometer 108, the microphone 109, and the camera 110. Specifically, the pedometer 108 detects the vibration of the mobile phone 10 and acquires information on how many steps the user has walked as state information based on the detected vibration. Note that the information on the number of steps of the user can be acquired in the same manner as in the conventional method. Further, the microphone 109 detects the sound and acquires the detected sound volume and the like as the state information. The camera 110 captures an image and acquires the captured image as state information. Note that the microphone 108 and the camera 110 are preferably provided at positions where information according to the state of the user can be acquired more appropriately. For example, the camera 110 is desirably provided outside the mobile phone 10 so that an image outside the mobile phone 10 can be taken.

  The state information acquisition unit 11 outputs the state information acquired as described above to the condition determination unit 12. Note that all three pieces of information may be used as the state information, but any one of them may be used. The state information acquisition unit 11 inputs the acquired state information to the condition determination unit 12.

  In addition to the above state information, the state information acquisition unit 11 may acquire position information indicating the current position of the mobile phone 10 as the state information. The position information is acquired by GPS using hardware such as the GPS signal receiving unit 111 and the GPS signal antenna 112 provided in the mobile phone 10. The state information acquisition unit 11 inputs the acquired position information to the condition determination unit 12.

  The condition determination unit 12 is a condition determination unit that determines whether the state information input from the state information acquisition unit 11 matches a preset condition. Here, the preset condition is a condition for determining whether or not the user is getting up. Information indicating preset conditions is stored in advance in the memory of the mobile phone 10 by being set by the user.

  Here, FIG. 3 shows setting information that is preset and stored in the mobile phone 10. This setting information is information relating to the function of the present invention, and includes information indicating a condition indicating the above condition. As shown in FIG. 3, the setting information is information in which setting items and setting contents are associated with each other. Based on the state information input from the state information acquisition unit 11, setting information for determining whether or not the user is getting up is “(9) step count information”, “(10) external sound”, “(11 ) Position information ”and“ (12) Camera information ”. The condition determining unit 12 refers to the above information in the setting information, and determines whether or not the user is getting up by determining whether or not the state information satisfies the set information.

  The condition determination unit 12 sets the number of steps of the user indicated by the state information input from the state information acquisition unit 11 to “(9) step number information” (“100 steps or more” in the example of FIG. 3). If so, it is determined that the user is awake. The condition determination unit 12 is a condition in which the sound indicated by the state information input from the state information acquisition unit 11 is set by “(10) external sound” of the setting information (in the example of FIG. 3, the volume is “50 db or more (Equivalent to the sound of a television) "), it is determined that the user is waking up. Alternatively, it may be determined that the user is waking up when the sound volume has continued for a certain period of time, such as 1 minute or more and 50 db or more.

  The condition determination unit 12 is a condition in which the position information indicated by the information input from the state information acquisition unit 11 is set by “(11) position information” of the setting information (in the example of FIG. 3, the position of the mobile phone 10 Is “other than home”), it is determined that the user is awake. Note that the above determination is made by, for example, the home position information (for example, information indicating latitude and longitude) acquired in advance by GPS or the like stored as setting information, and information input from the state information acquisition unit 11 This is performed by comparing the position information of the mobile phone 10 indicated by the above and determining whether or not there is a certain distance or more. If there is a certain distance or more, it is “other than home”.

  The condition determination unit 12 is configured such that the image that is the state information input from the state information acquisition unit 11 is set in “(12) Camera information” (in the example of FIG. 3, “the external camera senses movement”). ), It is determined that the user is awake. In this case, the state information acquisition unit 11 acquires an image or a moving image at a plurality of timings as the state information. Alternatively, it may be determined that the user is waking up when the movement of the image has continued for a certain period of time, such as when the movement of the image has continued for more than one minute. It should be noted that a conventional method can be used to determine whether or not there is movement between a plurality of images.

  The condition determination unit 12 may perform the determination at a predetermined timing (time or time zone). For example, the determination may be made at the timing (7:30 in the example of FIG. 3) designated by “(8) Attendance time” in the setting information shown in FIG. In this case, the state information acquisition unit 11 may start acquiring the state information from a timing slightly before the determination. For example, the state information may be acquired from the timing designated by “(1) Alarm” shown in FIG. 3 (7:00 in the example of FIG. 3). Note that the mobile phone 10 according to the present embodiment has a clock function, and any component can grasp the time. In addition, when the condition determination unit 12 determines that the user has not woken up, the condition determination unit 12 may repeatedly determine at a time interval specified by “(14) monitoring frequency” of the setting information illustrated in FIG. 3. .

  The condition determination unit 12 notifies the transmission unit 13 and the warning unit 14 of the determination result as to whether or not the user is getting up.

  The transmission unit 13 is a transmission unit that performs transmission to a specified transmission destination. In the present embodiment, the transmission unit 13 performs transmission according to the determination by the condition determination unit 12. Specifically, when the determination result notified from the condition determination unit 12 is that the user has not woken up, the transmission unit 13 sends an e-mail as an e-mail to the preset e-mail address. Send. The e-mail may include, for example, information indicating that the user has not woken up in the text or the like. The e-mail is transmitted using the mobile communication function of the mobile phone 10.

  The transmission destination of the electronic mail is designated in advance in “(13) Mail transmission destination” of the setting information. As the e-mail transmission destination, for example, the e-mail address of a person who wants to know whether or not the user of the mobile phone 10 is awake, such as the e-mail address of the person who works for the user of the mobile phone 10 is specified. A person who uses the mail address that is the destination of the e-mail can know that the user of the mobile phone 10 is not waking up by referring to the transmitted e-mail. If the determination result notified from the condition determination unit 12 is that the user has woken up, the transmission unit 13 does not perform special processing. When sending the e-mail, the sending unit 13 notifies the incoming call processing unit 16 of the e-mail destination mail address.

  The warning unit 14 is means for performing an alarm operation for the user of the mobile phone 10. The alarm operation wakes up the user and is a so-called alarm function. The alarm operation is performed at a preset time or according to the determination by the condition determination unit 12. That is, the warning unit 14 is a warning unit that issues a warning (alarm) to the user according to the determination by the condition determination unit 12. As an alarm performed by the warning unit 14, for example, an alarm sound is output from the mobile phone 10, or the mobile phone 10 is vibrated. The alarm sound is output from a speaker (not shown) provided in the mobile phone 10. The mobile phone 10 is vibrated by a motor (not shown) provided in the mobile phone 10.

The warning unit 14 performs an alarm operation according to the setting information shown in FIG. First, the warning unit 14 starts an alarm operation at the time specified by “(1) Alarm” and the day of the week specified by “(2) Repeat” in the setting information of FIG. In the example of FIG. 3, the alarm operation is started at 7:00 on the day of the week from Monday to Friday. As described above, the acquisition of the state information by the state information acquisition unit 11 may be performed at the same timing as described above.
The warning unit 14 outputs the sound (music) designated by “(5) Alarm sound setting” in the setting information of FIG. 3 at the sound volume designated by “(3) Alarm sound volume (first time)”. To do. The warning unit 14 stores in advance information for outputting the sound specified in “(5) Alarm sound setting”. The warning unit 14 vibrates (vibrates) the mobile phone 10 with the strength specified by “(6) Vibrating strength (first time)” of the setting information in FIG. The warning unit 14 stops the alarm operation when the user performs an operation to stop the alarm operation on the mobile phone 10.

  After that, the warning unit 14 repeats the alarm operation when the determination result notified from the condition determination unit 12 indicates that the user has not woken up. In this case, the alarm operation is performed more strongly. The warning unit 14 outputs a sound at a volume specified by “(4) Alarm volume (second time and later)” that is larger than the volume specified by “(3) Alarm volume (first time)”. The warning unit 14 uses the strength specified by “(7) Vibrating strength (second and subsequent times)” stronger than the strength specified by “(6) Vibrating strength (first time)”. Vibrate.

  The warning unit 14 does not perform an alarm operation when the determination result notified from the condition determination unit 12 is that the user has woken up. The warning by the warning unit 14 may be anything other than the above as long as it appeals to the user's five senses and prompts to wake up.

  The incoming call unit 15 is an incoming means that receives incoming calls from a predetermined incoming call source. Specifically, the receiving unit 15 receives an e-mail transmitted to a mail address assigned to the mobile phone 10 from a predetermined communication device. The reception of the e-mail is the above incoming call. The e-mail is received by using the mobile communication function of the mobile phone 10. When receiving the e-mail, the receiving unit 15 notifies the incoming processing unit 16 of the fact and the e-mail address of the e-mail receiving source. The mail address of the reception source can be acquired by referring to the header of the electronic mail.

  The incoming call processing unit 16 is an incoming call processing unit that performs incoming call processing when an incoming call notification is received from the incoming call unit 15. Specifically, the incoming call processing unit 16 performs an incoming call notification that notifies the user that there has been an incoming call. The incoming call notification is, for example, that the incoming call is displayed on the display 106 of the mobile phone 10 and that the mobile phone 10 outputs a ringtone (sounds) or vibrates the mobile phone 10. is there. By the way, the setting of the cellular phone 10 includes a manner mode setting. When the manner mode is set, normally, control for prohibiting ringtone output (voice output) and vibration is performed. In the case of a specific incoming call as described below, the incoming call processing unit 16 outputs a ringtone and vibrates even if the manner mode is set in the mobile phone 10.

  The incoming call processing unit 16 determines whether or not the incoming call source related to the incoming call accepted by the incoming call unit 15 corresponds to the outgoing call destination related to the outgoing call made by the outgoing call unit 13. The incoming call processing unit 16 stores, in advance, setting data as shown in FIG. 4, for example, associating information between an incoming call source (e-mail reception source) and a transmission destination (e-mail transmission destination). Keep by. As shown in FIG. 4, the mail address of “(1) destination of transmission mail” and the mail address of “(2) reception source of received mail” are associated with each other. A plurality of pieces of association information can be held. Here, the mail address of “(1) transmission mail destination” is the mail address of the transmission destination related to the transmission performed by the transmission unit 13. This information is preset by the user or the like.

  Specifically, the incoming call processing unit 16 stores a mail address of a transmission destination of the electronic mail notified from the transmission unit 13. Thereafter, when an incoming mail is received by the incoming call unit 15 and the incoming call processing unit 16 is notified of that, the incoming call processing unit 16 sends the stored mail address of the electronic mail (outgoing mail) and the incoming call unit 15. It is determined whether or not the e-mail address of the e-mail (received e-mail) related to the incoming call notified from the e-mail matches the above-mentioned association information. Specifically, the transmission mail history and the reception mail history of the mobile phone 10 may be referred to for the transmission destination mail address and the reception source mail address, respectively.

  The incoming call processing unit 16 processes the incoming call according to the determination. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, when the incoming call processing unit 16 determines that the transmission destination of the outgoing mail and the reception source of the incoming mail match the above association information, the mobile phone 10 Even if the manner mode is set, ringtone output and vibration are performed. Alternatively, the incoming call processing unit 16 may cancel the setting when the manner mode is set in such a case. In that case, when the mobile phone 10 subsequently receives an incoming call, the ringtone is output or vibrated. On the other hand, if the incoming call processing unit 16 determines that the transmission destination of the outgoing mail and the reception source of the incoming mail do not match the information of the above correspondence, the manner mode is set in the mobile phone 10. In some cases, ringtone output and vibration are prohibited as set in manner mode.

  The above control makes it possible for the user to be more surely aware of the email sent to the mobile phone 10 by a third party who saw the email automatically sent when the user is not getting up. Is to do. That is, after the mobile phone 10 makes a call, the user is more surely aware that there is an incoming call according to the call. More specifically, a person who works for a user who refers to an email transmitted from the mobile phone 10 and determines that the user of the mobile phone 10 is not waking up may wake up or contact the user. Or something that you can do.

  As shown in the examples of FIGS. 4 and 5, the mail address of the transmission destination and the mail address of the received mail that are associated with each other are not necessarily the same, and may be different. This is in consideration of, for example, the case where the person at the workplace performs reception and transmission of an electronic mail with different communication devices. Of course, the destination mail address and the received mail address may be the same.

  In addition, as indicated by “within 10 minutes” in FIG. 5, the above control is performed only when the transmission of the e-mail by the transmission unit 13 and the reception of the e-mail by the reception unit 15 are performed at regular time intervals. It is desirable to be performed at. That is, the incoming call processing unit 16 corresponds to a destination related to the outgoing call made by the outgoing call unit 13 while the incoming call source related to the incoming call accepted by the incoming call unit 15 goes back for a predetermined period from the incoming call. Whether or not, and the incoming call processing is performed according to the determination. In general, incoming calls according to outgoing calls are often made within a certain period of time, and it is possible to make the user aware of incoming calls according to outgoing calls reliably and appropriately.

  Specifically, the incoming call processing unit 16 sets the above time interval (a predetermined period going back) as “(5) interval between sent mail and received mail” as shown in FIG. Are stored in association with each other. This period is set in advance by the user or the like based on the above-described purpose. Then, the incoming call processing unit 16 stores the time when the electronic mail is transmitted by the transmission unit 13 in association with the mail address of the transmission destination. This time can be grasped by, for example, notification from the transmission unit 13. When the incoming call unit 15 receives the e-mail and notifies the incoming call processing unit 16 to that effect, the incoming call processing unit 16 sets “(5) interval between sent mail and received mail” from the time of the notification. The above-mentioned correspondence between the mail address of the transmission destination of the transmission mail at the transmission time in the retroactive time interval and the mail address of the reception source of the email (reception mail) related to the incoming notification notified from the reception unit 15 It is determined whether or not it matches the attached information. The processing after the match determination is the same as described above.

  Note that the above control is not performed when the manner mode is not set in the mobile phone 10. However, if the incoming call processing unit 16 determines that the transmission destination of the outgoing mail and the reception source of the incoming mail match the above-mentioned correspondence information for the above purpose of this control, the incoming call sound in the mobile phone 10 The output and vibration may be performed with a magnitude larger than usual.

  In the above-described example, outgoing and incoming calls in the mobile phone 10 are sent and received e-mail, but it is not necessarily e-mail. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the present invention may be applied to outgoing / incoming voice calls. In this case, as in the case of the e-mail, as shown in FIG. 4, “(3) Callee number” is the number of the phone that is the callee of the call from the mobile phone 10, and “(4) Caller number” The number of the telephone that is the incoming call source of the incoming call to the mobile phone 10 is stored in association with each other. Further, the determination and control by the incoming call processing unit 16 is performed in the same manner as in the case of the electronic mail described above. The above is the configuration of the mobile phone 10.

  Subsequently, processing (incoming call processing method) executed by the mobile phone 10 according to the present embodiment will be described using the flowcharts of FIGS. 6 and 7. First, processing at the time of outgoing call will be described using the flowchart of FIG. 6, and then processing at the time of incoming call will be described using the flowchart of FIG. This process is performed at a time when the user has to get up, such as in the morning of the work day of the user of the mobile phone 10. Further, the cellular phone 10 is set to a manner mode in which a ring tone does not ring even when an incoming call is received.

  In the mobile phone 10, the warning unit 14 determines whether or not it is a set time (“(1) alarm” in the set information shown in FIG. 3) for performing an alarm operation (S 01). If the set time is not reached, the above determination is repeated. Subsequently, when it is determined that the set time for performing the alarm operation is reached, the alarm operation by the warning unit 14 is performed (S02). This alarm operation is performed as the first alarm operation in accordance with “(3) alarm volume (first time)” and “(6) vibration strength (first time)” in the setting information shown in FIG. This alarm operation is stopped when the user performs an operation to stop the alarm operation on the mobile phone 10.

  In addition, at the set time when the first alarm operation is performed, the state information acquisition unit 11 detects that the time is reached, and the state information is acquired (S03, state information acquisition step). This acquisition of the state information is continuously performed until the determination by the condition determination unit 12 is performed. The acquired state information is output from the state information acquisition unit 11 to the condition determination unit 12.

  Subsequently, the condition determination unit 12 determines whether or not the user has woken up from the state information input from the state information acquisition unit 11 (S04, condition determination step). This determination is based on the conditions (“(9) Step count information”, “(10) External sound”, “(11) Position” set in the setting information for determining whether or not the user is getting up. Information ”,“ (12) Camera information ”). This determination is made at the time indicated by “(8) Attendance time” in the setting information shown in FIG. The determination result by the condition determination unit 12 is notified to the transmission unit 13 and the warning unit 14.

  When the determination result notified from the condition determination unit 12 is that the user has not woken up (when the user has woken up by an alarm of S02 or the like), the transmission unit 13 sets “(8) Mail transmission destination” The e-mail is transmitted to the e-mail address designated by "" (S05, sending step). The person who has received the e-mail can know that the user of the mobile phone 10 is not waking up. When the e-mail is transmitted, the transmitting unit 13 notifies the incoming processing unit 16 of the destination mail address and the transmission time of the outgoing mail. The incoming call processing unit 16 stores such information.

  If the determination result notified from the condition determination unit 12 indicates that the user has not woken up (when the user has woken up by an alarm of S02 or the like), the alarm unit performs an alarm operation again (S06). , Warning step). This alarm operation is performed as the second or subsequent alarm operation according to the setting information shown in FIG. 3 “(4) Alarm volume (second and subsequent times)” and “(7) Vibrating strength (second and subsequent times)”. . This alarm operation is an alarm operation that is stronger (volume or vibration is larger) than the first alarm operation. This is to raise the user more strongly. This alarm operation is stopped when the user performs an operation to stop the alarm operation on the mobile phone 10.

  After mail transmission (S05) and alarm (S06) are performed, the processes of S03 to S06 are repeated again. Here, the determination by the condition determination unit 12 in S04 is performed at a time interval specified by “(14) monitoring frequency” of the setting information.

  If the determination by the condition determination unit 12 in S04 is that the user has woken up, the process ends without performing any special process. However, even in this case, the sending unit 13 may send an e-mail including information that the user has woken up to the e-mail address specified by “(8) e-mail destination” of the setting information. The above is the processing at the time of sending an electronic mail.

  Subsequently, processing at the time of an incoming call will be described using the flowchart of FIG. When an e-mail is transmitted to the mobile phone 10, the e-mail is received by the receiving unit 15 (S11, incoming step). When the e-mail is received, the fact and the mail address of the recipient are notified from the incoming call unit 15 to the incoming call processing unit 16.

  When the notification is made, the information shown in FIG. 4 is referred to by the incoming call processing unit 16, and the mail address of the reception source notified from the incoming call unit 15 corresponds to the mail address of the transmission mail destination in S05. (S12, incoming call processing step). In the determination of this correspondence, it is also determined whether or not the time interval between reception and transmission is within “(5) interval between transmission mail and reception mail” in FIG.

  Subsequently, the incoming call processing unit 16 performs incoming call processing according to the above determination. When the incoming call processing unit 16 determines that the transmission destination of the outgoing mail and the reception source of the incoming mail do not match the above-mentioned correspondence information or the time interval is not within the set interval, the normal incoming call processing (S13, incoming call processing step). That is, since the manner mode is set in the mobile phone 10, the incoming call processing unit 16 prohibits the output of ringtone and vibration.

  In S12, when it is determined by the incoming call processing unit 16 that the transmission destination of the outgoing mail and the reception source of the incoming mail match the above-mentioned correspondence information and the time interval is within the set interval, Incoming call processing is performed (S14, incoming call processing step). That is, although the manner mode is set in the mobile phone 10, the incoming call processing unit 16 outputs a ringtone and vibrates. This is because, for example, the received mail is sent to the mobile phone 10 because the person who received the e-mail sent in S05 wants to wake up the user of the mobile phone 10 or to contact the user of the mobile phone 10, for example. This is the case where the e-mail is sent.

  This special incoming call processing, that is, the ringing tone that is not performed in the normal incoming call process and the vibration of the mobile phone 10, allows the user to notice the incoming call more reliably than in the normal incoming call process. The above is the processing when receiving an e-mail.

  In the present embodiment, when an incoming call such as reception of an e-mail is accepted, an incoming call source related to the incoming call corresponds to a call destination related to transmission such as an e-mail transmission performed by the mobile phone 10. In this case, incoming call processing can be performed accordingly. Accordingly, as described above, after the mobile phone 10 transmits an e-mail, a ring tone is generated even if the mobile phone 10 is set to the manner mode in response to the reception of the e-mail according to the transmission. Incoming call processing can be performed. That is, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to make the user more surely notice that there is an incoming call according to the outgoing call after the mobile phone 10 has made the outgoing call.

  Further, as in the above-described embodiment, the above-described control may be performed only for outgoing / incoming calls at regular time intervals. According to this configuration, it is possible to perform incoming call incoming processing according to outgoing calls for incoming calls only for a predetermined period after the mobile phone 10 makes outgoing calls. Thereby, a special incoming call process can be performed only at a necessary time. However, for example, incoming calls that are important for the user of the mobile phone 10 that does not limit the time do not need to be determined with a limited period. Moreover, as shown in the setting of FIG. 4, a time limit may be set for each destination and destination.

  Further, as in the present embodiment, the destination for performing special incoming call processing and the incoming call source may be different. For example, it is assumed that the control according to the present invention is performed even when the communication partner of the mobile phone 10 is different between outgoing and incoming calls. Thereby, the incoming call process according to the outgoing call can be performed more flexibly, and the convenience for the user can be improved.

  Further, as a special incoming call processing as in the present embodiment, even if the manner mode is set, the incoming call is sounded or the mobile phone 10 is vibrated to notify the incoming call, It is desirable to cancel. According to this configuration, the user can be surely and appropriately noticed the incoming call according to the outgoing call.

  Further, as in the present embodiment, a call may be automatically made from the mobile phone 10 according to the state of the user. According to this configuration, the user can be surely made aware of the incoming call according to the automatic call. Therefore, it is possible to make the user notice the incoming call according to the user's state. For example, as described above, when the user is not getting up, a call is automatically made, and the user can be notified of an incoming call according to the call. In the present embodiment, the state of the user determined from the state information is set as to whether or not the user has woken up, but other states may be used.

  Further, as in the present embodiment, it is desirable to determine the state of the user based on any of information based on vibration of the mobile phone 10, audio around the mobile phone 10, and images around the mobile phone 10. According to this configuration, it is possible to appropriately make the automatic call according to the state of the user, and thus it is possible to make the user notice the incoming call according to the state of the user more appropriately. However, any information other than the above may be used as long as the user's state can be determined.

  Further, it is desirable to perform a warning (alarm) by the warning unit 14. According to this configuration, the user can be made aware of an incoming call according to the user's condition, and for example, the user can be awakened when the user is sleeping. However, it is not always necessary to issue an alarm.

  In addition, it is desirable that the determination of the user state is performed in a predetermined time zone. According to this configuration, it is possible to make the user aware of an incoming call according to the user's state at a necessary timing (time zone) such as a working hour. However, the above-described configuration is not necessarily required when determining the user state independent of the time zone.

  Note that the transmission by the transmission unit 13, that is, the transmission of an e-mail or the transmission of a voice call does not necessarily have to be automatically performed as in the present embodiment. For example, the above-mentioned transmission may be performed by the user operating the mobile phone 10. For example, when the user of the mobile phone 10 surely wants to notice the reply when the user is waiting for a reply important to the user in response to an outgoing e-mail or voice call even when the mobile phone 10 is in the manner mode. It is valid.

  In this embodiment, the correspondence between outgoing calls and incoming calls is held as information associating the call destination and the incoming call source as shown in FIG. 4, but such information is not necessarily provided if the correspondence between outgoing calls and incoming calls can be determined. There is no need to hold. For example, by determining that the e-mail received by the mobile phone 10 is a reply of the e-mail transmitted from the mobile phone 10 based on the header or the like of the e-mail, the call destination and the call source correspond to each other. You may judge.

  In the present embodiment, the communication terminal is the mobile phone 10, but any communication device may be used as long as it can make and receive calls to and from other communication devices.
