Description

  The present invention relates to a radio communication terminal apparatus having a base station communication mode and a direct communication mode, and more particularly to a radio communication terminal apparatus in which a permanent number is set for each operation mode.

Conventionally, in a wireless communication system mainly composed of a control station and composed of a plurality of base station devices and a plurality of mobile station devices in the area (base station communication area), simplex communication (press talk communication), etc. Was the subject.
However, in recent years, a system that enables communication like a general telephone by using another wave for transmission / reception, and calling a communication destination and automatically connecting it has become common. This is called bidirectional communication.

In such a system, since a function such as general telephone connection is usually required, all connection control is performed based on the jurisdiction of the control device of the control station, but the call form is from the mobile station device. The so-called upstream communication to the control station is overwhelmingly large.
For this reason, a mobile station device generally has a configuration in which a call number (telephone number) of a control station is set in advance when power is turned on, and a communication request is made by pressing only an off-hook button when placing a call. It is. The preset call number (telephone number) is referred to as a permanent number, and the greatest merit of the permanent number is that it can be used in a so-called hotline.
In the mobile station apparatus, it is also possible to make a communication request to a partner other than the permanent number by pressing an off-hook button after operating and inputting an arbitrary call number (telephone number).

JP 2007-74453 A

  In the wireless communication system as described above, when both or one of the opposing mobile station devices exists outside the area of the base station communication area (also referred to as a base station communication zone or a base station call zone), or When the control of the base station communication mode (normal communication mode) becomes impossible due to a failure of the control station, etc., direct communication between mobile station devices is possible without going through the base station device. It is. Specifically, the wireless communication terminal device function of the mobile station device has a function of switching the operation mode (communication mode), and the mobile station device communicates directly with the base station communication mode, which is communication via the base station device. Realized by switching to direct communication mode.

  However, conventionally, only one permanent number is set without depending on the base station communication mode which is communication via the base station device and the direct communication mode in which the mobile station devices communicate directly with each other. Therefore, for example, as described above, when the control station in the base station communication area is set as the permanent number communication destination, in the mobile station device, the operation mode is directly communicated between the mobile station devices directly. In the communication mode, there is a problem that communication cannot be performed even if communication is attempted to the permanent number, and the call number of any partner station capable of communication must be input.

  The present invention has been made in view of such conventional circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a wireless communication terminal apparatus in which a permanent number is set for each operation mode of the base station communication mode and the direct communication mode. . As a result, for example, in a wireless communication system having a plurality of operation modes, a permanent number setting corresponding to each operation mode and a permanent number switching operation corresponding to the operation mode are realized, thereby improving user (person) convenience. To improve the usability of the wireless communication terminal device.

In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, a wireless communication terminal apparatus that performs wireless communication has the following configuration.
That is, the permanent number storage means stores permanent numbers for each operation mode of a base station communication mode in which wireless communication is performed via a base station and a direct communication mode in which wireless communication is performed directly with another communication device. Operation mode switching means switches between the base station communication mode and the direct communication mode. The permanent number switching means switches the setting state of the permanent number in response to the operation mode being switched by the operation mode switching means.

  Accordingly, it is possible to realize a wireless communication terminal device in which a permanent number is set for each operation mode of the base station communication mode and the direct communication mode. Thus, for example, in a wireless communication system having a plurality of operation modes, The permanent number setting corresponding to the operation mode and the permanent number switching operation corresponding to the operation mode can be realized, the convenience of the user (person) can be improved, and the usability of the wireless communication terminal device can be improved.

Here, various types of wireless communication terminal devices may be used.
Various other communication devices that are directly communicating with each other may be used. For example, other wireless communication terminal devices may be used.
In addition, the operation mode is switched manually by an operation by a person or automatically by an apparatus, for example.
Various modes may be used as the mode for switching the setting state of the permanent number in accordance with the switching of the operation mode. For example, the setting state inside the apparatus (for example, the management state of the current permanent number) ), A mode of switching a setting state (for example, a permanent number to be displayed or a state of information corresponding thereto), etc., to be output to the outside of the apparatus can be used.

As a configuration example, the wireless communication terminal device includes a display unit that displays a permanent number (or information corresponding to the operation number) for the operation mode switched by the operation mode switching unit. The permanent number switching means switches the permanent number (or information corresponding thereto) displayed by the display means in response to the operation mode being switched by the operation mode switching means. The display means displays information indicating the operation mode switched by the operation mode switching means.

Therefore, the permanent number (or information corresponding to it) displayed for each operation mode can be switched, and, for example, when the off-hook button is pressed, the displayed permanent number (or the corresponding number) is displayed. It is possible to make a call to the other party (information), and the convenience and convenience for the user can be improved.
Here, as information to be displayed according to the operation mode, for example, information on a permanent number corresponding to the operation mode may be used, or information such as the name of a communication partner corresponding to the permanent number is used. May be.

  As an example of the configuration, in the wireless communication terminal device, when a call is made to a call number other than the permanent number for the operation mode switched by the operation mode switching unit, the permanent number for the operation mode (or In this case, a last number recall unit for displaying the call number (or information corresponding to the call number) by the display unit is provided instead of the corresponding information).

  Therefore, when a call is made to a call number other than the permanent number corresponding to the operation mode, the call number (or information corresponding to the call number) is displayed. By pressing or the like, it is possible to make a call to the other party of the displayed call number (or information corresponding to the call number), and the convenience and convenience for the user can be improved.

  As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to realize a wireless communication terminal device in which a permanent number is set for each operation mode of the base station communication mode and the direct communication mode. ) And the usability of the wireless communication terminal device can be improved.

Embodiments according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
The radio communication system according to the present embodiment can be applied to, for example, a digital mobile communication system used for administrative communication at the time of a disaster.
In this embodiment, a portable terminal device (mobile station device) is exemplified as the wireless communication terminal device, but various devices such as a vehicle-mounted type and a fixed type may be used.

A first embodiment of the present invention will be described.
FIG. 1 shows a configuration example of a radio communication system according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The wireless communication system of this example includes a control station 1 and a plurality of mobile station devices 21, 22, and 23.
The control station 1 includes a control table 11 for an operator (person) to operate communication, a line control device 12 serving as the center of the system, a base station wireless device 13 that performs wireless communication with the mobile station devices 21 to 23, and the like. It is configured.

In addition, a base station communication area 14 exists as a range in which radio waves of the base station wireless device 11 reach. In the area of the base station communication area 14, wireless communication is normally performed by using the base station wave (for example, frequency f <b> 1) that is a system wave by the mobile station devices 21 to 23, and outside the area of the base station communication area 14. The mobile station devices 21 to 23 perform wireless communication using direct communication waves (for example, frequency f2 (≠ f1)).
In the example of FIG. 1, the mobile station device 21 and the mobile station device 22 exist within the area of the base station communication area 14, and the mobile station device 23 exists outside the area of the base station communication area 14.

An example of a schematic operation performed in the wireless communication system of this example is shown.
The control platform 11 and the mobile station devices 21 and 22 can perform wireless communication between the mobile station devices 21 and 22 and the base station wireless device 13 and can communicate with each other via the line control device 12.
Further, the mobile station device 21 and the mobile station device 22 existing in the area of the base station communication area 14 each perform wireless communication with the base station wireless device 13, via the base station wireless device 13. , Can communicate with each other.
In addition, the mobile station device 23 existing outside the base station communication area 14 (or within the area) can directly communicate with other mobile station devices 22.

In FIG. 2, the example of a structure of the mobile station apparatuses 21-23 is shown. In this example, the configurations and operations of the mobile station apparatuses 21 to 23 are the same.
The mobile station devices 21 to 23 in this example are an antenna 31, a transmission / reception unit 32, a reception signal processing unit 33, a speaker 34, a display unit 35, an operation unit (including a press talk button in this example) 36, a microphone 37, and a transmission. A signal processing unit 38, for example, a control unit 40 having a storage unit 39 composed of a memory is provided.

An example of a schematic operation performed in the mobile station apparatuses 21 to 23 of this example is shown.
The control unit 40 performs overall control and various processes. The storage unit 39 stores various types of information necessary for operation.
A signal wirelessly received by the antenna 31 is processed by the transmission / reception unit 32 and the reception signal processing unit 33, and an audio signal included in the reception signal is output as sound from the speaker 34. Further, when information to be displayed is included in the received signal, the information is displayed and output on the screen of the display unit 35 by the control unit 40.
The operation unit 36 is operated by a user (person) and receives various operations from the user. The control unit 40 performs various processes and controls according to the content of the operation received by the operation unit 36.
The audio signal input from the microphone 37 is processed by the transmission signal processing unit 38 and the transmission / reception unit 32 and transmitted from the antenna 31 by radio.

The mobile station apparatuses 21 to 23 in this example have a function of performing communication in the base station communication mode, a function of performing communication in the direct communication mode, and a function of switching between these operation modes.
In addition, the mobile station devices 21 to 23 of this example have not only a function of performing press talk communication but also a function of performing bidirectional communication.

Next, operation modes and permanent numbers in the mobile station apparatuses 21 to 23 will be described.
It is assumed that the permanent number of each operation mode is set and stored in advance in the storage unit 39 of each mobile station apparatus 21 to 23. Further, in this example, there is one permanent number for one mode, and the operation mode is basically switched manually by the operator (user), but when a failure occurs in the system, etc. (Alternatively, it may be performed at any time).

In the mobile station apparatuses 21 to 23, when a certain operation mode is set, a permanent number corresponding to the operation mode is always displayed on the display screen.
In the mobile station devices 21 to 23 of this example, when the power is turned on, the base station communication mode is initially set, and a permanent number corresponding to the base station communication mode is displayed. As described above, in this example, the mobile station devices 21 to 23 are turned on and then started in the base station communication mode. As another example, when the mobile station devices 21 to 23 are started in the direct communication mode, In the devices 21 to 23, the permanent number of the direct communication mode is set and the permanent number is displayed.
In this example, the operation mode and the permanent number to be displayed are simultaneously switched, for example.

In addition, for the permanent number corresponding to each operation mode, for example, a configuration that can be arbitrarily set or changed by an operator may be used.
Specifically, in this example, at the time of introduction of the system or after that, the system management person in charge presets a permanent number corresponding to each operation mode in each mobile station apparatus 21 to 23. It is also possible for the operator of the mobile station devices 21 to 23 to arbitrarily change the permanent number of each operation mode. As an example, in the mobile station device 22, when the permanent number in the base station communication mode is to be set or changed to one corresponding to the mobile station device 21 (2000 in this example), the operator is talking. In such a state, a desired call number registered from the telephone directory in the mobile station device 22 is searched, and the call number can be set or changed as a permanent number.

In this example, the call numbers of the communication devices such as the control platform 11 and the mobile station devices 21 to 23 are the same in the base station communication mode and the direct communication mode, for example, and different frequencies are used for each operation mode. Used for wireless communication.
In each of the mobile station apparatuses 21 to 23, normally, the permanent number (communication partner) is different for each operation mode, but the same permanent number may be set for different operation modes.
Further, a call number (group number) for group communication can be used as the permanent number. In the group number, for example, a plurality of communication devices that perform group communication are associated, and when one communication device in the group (in the group) makes a call, all other communication devices receive an incoming call.

FIG. 3 shows an example of a processing procedure when the mobile station device 22 makes a call in each operation mode. In the mobile station device 22, a call operation is performed using a permanent number or an arbitrary number.
In this example, in the mobile station device 22, the permanent number corresponding to the control table 11 (in this example, 1300) is set as the permanent number in the base station communication mode, and the mobile station device as the permanent number in the direct communication mode. It is assumed that one corresponding to 23 (in this example, 2200) is set.

  First, the operator of the mobile station apparatus 22 turns on (turns on) the power to participate in the system (step S1). At this time, the mobile station device 22 is activated in the base station communication mode (normal communication mode), the number (1300) of the control table 11 is set as a permanent number, and is permanently set as a calling number in the monitor unit (display unit 35). A number (1300) is displayed (step S2).

FIG. 4 shows an example of information displayed on the screen 101 of the display unit 35 by the control unit 40 in the mobile station device 22 in the base station communication mode (normal communication mode).
Specifically, information indicating the base station communication mode “normal mode”, information indicating the strength of the radio wave (antenna mark), information on the currently set permanent number “1300”, operation Information of explanation to the person who is calling "I will make a call off-hook" is displayed.

Next, when the operator of the mobile station device 22 wants to call the control table 11 as a communication partner (step S3), the call number (1300) of the control table 11 is already displayed on the display unit 35 as a permanent number. Therefore, the operator performs a call operation by visually checking the number (step S4). This calling operation is generally an operation of pressing the off-hook button only once, and this operation is also adopted in this example.
Thereafter, a call is made with the control table 11 on the called side via a line connection via the line control device 12 (step S5), and the line is disconnected after the call is finished. For example, the same process as the conventional wireless communication procedure can be used for the call or line disconnection process.
If the operator gives an instruction to turn off the power (step S6), the mobile station device 22 turns off the power (step S7). If there is no such instruction, step S2 Return to the process.

  Next, in the base station communication mode, when the operator of the mobile station device 22 wishes to call other than the control table 11 as a communication partner (step S8), the operator manually enters the call number of the desired communication partner, for example. Or when the call number of the desired communication partner is registered in the telephone book in the mobile station device 22, the call number of the desired communication partner is displayed on the screen by searching for the call number. (Step S9). Thereafter, the operator visually checks the number and performs a call operation (in this example, pressing an off-hook button) (step S10). The subsequent operations from line connection to disconnection performed in this manner are the same as those in steps S5 to S7.

  Next, when the operator of the mobile station device 22 manually switches from the base station communication mode to the direct communication mode (step S11), the mobile station device 22 then transitions to the direct communication mode and moves. The number (2200) of the station device 23 is set as the permanent number, and the permanent number (2200) is displayed as the calling number on the monitor unit (display unit 35) (step S12).

FIG. 5 shows an example of information displayed on the screen 102 of the display unit 35 by the control unit 40 in the mobile station device 22 in the direct communication mode.
Specifically, the information “direct mode” indicating the direct communication mode, the information indicating the radio wave intensity (antenna mark), the currently set permanent number information “2200”, the operator The explanation information for "Send off-hook" is displayed.

Next, when the operator of the mobile station device 22 wants to call the mobile station device 23 as a communication partner (step S13), the call number (2200) of the mobile station device 23 is already displayed on the display unit 35 as a permanent number. Therefore, the operator performs a call operation by visually checking the number (step S14). This calling operation is generally an operation of pressing the off-hook button only once, and this operation is also adopted in this example.
Thereafter, a call is made with the mobile station device 23 on the called side via a direct line connection (step S15), and the line is disconnected after the call ends. For example, the same process as the conventional wireless communication procedure can be used for the call or line disconnection process.
If the operator gives an instruction to turn off the power (step S16), the mobile station device 22 turns off the power (step S7). If there is no such instruction, step S12 is performed. Return to the process.

  Next, in the direct communication mode, when the operator of the mobile station device 22 wants to call other than the mobile station device 23 as a communication partner (step S17), the operator manually enters the call number of the desired communication partner, for example. Or when the call number of the desired communication partner is registered in the telephone book in the mobile station device 22, the call number of the desired communication partner is displayed on the screen by searching for the call number. (Step S18). Thereafter, the operator visually checks the number and performs a call operation (pressing an off-hook button in this example) (step S19). The subsequent operations from line connection to disconnection performed in this way are the same as those in steps S15, S16, and S7.

Next, the last number recall function will be described.
In the last number recall function, in a certain mobile station device 21 to 23, it is assumed that a communication partner calling with a call number other than the permanent number has higher call priority than a communication partner with a permanent number, and the call is made after the line is disconnected. The number is displayed on the screen of the display unit 35. When the operator wants to start communication after the next time, he / she visually checks the number and makes a call operation (generally, once with the off-hook button). , And this operation is also adopted in this example) to make a call with that call number.
In this example, it is possible to selectively switch the on / off state of the last number recall function according to the settings of the mobile station apparatuses 21 to 23.

As described above, in the last number recall function, the call number of the communication partner with which communication was last connected is displayed on the screen, and the redial operation is facilitated.
When the last number recall function is on and a call is made to a call number other than the permanent number of the set operation mode, the call number is displayed on the screen after the line is disconnected (the permanent number is displayed on the screen). The operation mode at that time is maintained. Thereafter, when the operation mode is switched, for example, a permanent number corresponding to the operation mode of the switching destination is displayed on the screen. For example, when the last number recall function is on and the mobile station devices 21 to 23 are turned off and then turned on, the last number recall function is turned off. In addition, an operation for switching between a state in which a call number is displayed by the last number recall function and a state in which a permanent number is displayed according to the operation mode may be provided.

As described above, in this example, the control station 1 having the control table 11 and the line control device 12, the base station radio device 13 (included in the control station 1 in this example), and the mobile station devices 21 to 23 The mobile station apparatuses 21 to 23 are mobile station apparatuses in a wireless communication system having a base station communication mode for performing communication via the base station wireless apparatus 13 and a direct communication mode for performing communication between mobile station apparatuses. 21 to 23, permanent numbers corresponding to two communication modes can be set, that is, a permanent number for base station communication and a permanent number for direct communication can be set.
As a specific example, each of the mobile station devices 21 to 23 has a permanent number registration area corresponding to two operation modes of base station communication and direct communication, and the operator can arbitrarily switch the operation mode. is there.

Further, in the mobile station devices 21 to 23 of this example, the permanent number corresponding to each operation mode can be registered or canceled using the registered telephone directory data in the standby state.
Moreover, in this example, as a permanent number set to the mobile station apparatuses 21 to 23, either an individual number or a group number can be set.
Further, in the mobile station apparatuses 21 to 23 of this example, it is possible to selectively switch between the permanent number and the last dialed (called) number to be displayed in the standby state.

  As described above, in the mobile station apparatuses 21 to 23 of this example, a permanent number that enables communication with a predetermined partner only by pressing a press-to-talk (PTT) button, for example, is set as the base station communication mode. A last number recall function that enables communication by pressing the PTT button to the last communication partner as a communication method that is set in two types of direct communication mode and has a higher priority than the permanent number. It is provided. Here, the press talk button is an example of an off-hook button.

  Therefore, in this example, in a wireless communication system having a plurality of operation modes, the operability of the terminal (in this example, the mobile station devices 21 to 23) can be improved even in different operation modes, and a permanent number is used. The best system construction and wireless communication method can be realized.

  In the mobile station devices 21 to 23 (an example of a radio communication terminal device) of this example, the storage unit 39 has a permanent number storage means by a function of storing a permanent number of each operation mode (base station communication mode, direct communication mode). And the operation mode is controlled by the function of the control unit 40 switching the operation mode automatically by the apparatus in response to the operator performing a predetermined operation on the operation unit 36 or according to preset conditions. Switching means is configured, and the permanent number switching means is configured by the function of the control unit 40 switching the setting state of the permanent number according to switching of the operation mode, and the display unit 35 is currently set by the control of the control unit 40 The display means is configured by the function of displaying the permanent number (or the information corresponding thereto) of the operation mode being used, and the control by the control unit 40 Ri last song recall means is constituted by the function of performing the processing of the last number recall.

A second embodiment of the present invention will be described.
