Abstract

PURPOSE:To show an originating party name by storing a telephone directory into the memory of a telephone terminal connected to an integrated service digital network(ISDN) to send a message including an originating party telephone number, extracting an originating party number from an incoming call message and comparing with the memory. CONSTITUTION:A communication control part 5 receives and calls out with a speaker 6. In a message, the presence and absence of a originating party telephone number are retrieved. A card reader 3-2 reads successively an IC card 3-1 which is a telephone directory. When both are coincident, the name corresponding to the card 3-1 is read, outputted to a displaying control part 1-1 and shown in a displaying part 1-2. When the card 3-1 is not mounted, the originating party telephone number is shown through a displaying control part 1-1 at the displaying part 1-2. Even when all telephone numbers of an IC card 3-1 are read and the number coincident with the retrieved originating party telephone number does not exist, the originating party telephone number is shown in the displaying part 1-2. By the constitution, when the message including the telephone number is received, a receiving person immediately finds the name of the originating party.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Summary] Automatic display of the caller's name on a telephone terminal having a display device and connected to an integrated service digital communication network (hereinafter referred to as 15DN) that transmits a message including the caller's telephone number. Regarding the method, the aim is to provide a method for automatically displaying the caller's name on a telephone terminal, which allows the recipient to immediately know the name of the caller upon receiving a message containing a telephone number. A telephone directory showing telephone numbers and names is stored in the memory, and the caller's telephone number is extracted from the incoming message, compared with the telephone number in the telephone directory, and if there is a match, the name is extracted and displayed on the display device. The configuration includes a search display means for displaying.

[Industrial application field]

The present invention relates to an automatic caller name display method for a telephone terminal connected to an I5DN and having a display device, which transmits a message including the caller's telephone number.

[Conventional technology]

In recent years, commercial l5DN services have been launched, and as a new service, when making a call, the calling terminal can send a message containing the own phone number to the other party, and the called party can display the caller's phone number. Services are used to confirm the identity of the other party.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

However, recipients often forget the caller's name for the outgoing phone number, and have to look up their own telephone directory that lists phone numbers versus names, which takes time. There are such problems.

An object of the present invention is to provide a system for automatically displaying the caller's name on a telephone terminal, which allows the receiver to immediately know the name of the sender upon receiving a message including a telephone number.

[Means to solve the problem]

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the principle of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, a telephone directory 3 showing a telephone number and name in a memory 2 of a telephone terminal connected to an 15DN and having a display device 1 that transmits a message including a caller's telephone number.
Store.

Further, search and display means 4 is provided for extracting the caller's telephone number from the incoming message, comparing it with the telephone number in the telephone directory 3, and extracting the name if they match, and displaying it on the display device 1.

[For production]

According to the present invention, when a message including a caller's telephone number is received, the search and display means 4 extracts the caller's telephone number and compares it with the telephone number in the telephone directory 3 stored in the memory 2 to find a match. Then, since the name is extracted and displayed on the display device 1, the sender's name can be known almost at the same time as the message is received.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a telephone terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a search display program according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 2, 1-2 is a display unit, 1-1 is a display control unit that controls the display on the display unit 1-2, and 3-1 is a receiver's display unit.
An IC card which is a telephone directory in which names are written for telephone numbers; 3-2 is an IC card reader; 5 is an ISD
6, a speaker for outputting a calling signal, etc.; 7, a Hunt Center for making telephone calls; and ROM 9, which stores a search and display program as shown in FIG.

The processor 8 uses this program to display the sender's name, etc.

The following explanation will be given according to the program shown in FIG.

When the communication control unit 5 receives the message, step 1
At step 2, a calling signal is output from the speaker 6.
, search to see if there is a caller's phone number in the message, and if there is, proceed to step 3 and save the IC card 3 which is the phone book.
If -1 is implemented, proceed to step 4.

In steps 4 and 5.9, the IC card league 3-2 sequentially reads the IC card 3-1, which is a telephone directory, and if it matches the searched caller's telephone number, the process proceeds to step 6.

In step 6, the name corresponding to the telephone number of the IC card 3-1, which is a telephone directory, is read, and in step 7, it is output to the display control section 5-1 and displayed on the display section 1-2.

If there is no caller telephone number in the message in step 2, the process advances to step 8 and nothing is displayed.

If it is determined in step 3 that the IC card 3-1, which is a telephone directory, is not installed, the process proceeds to step 10, where the caller's telephone number is displayed on the display section 1-2 via the display control section 1-1.

IC card 3-1 which is a telephone directory in steps 4 and 5.9
If there is no match with the searched caller's telephone number even after reading all the telephone numbers, the process proceeds to step IO, and the caller's telephone number is displayed on the display section 1-2 via the display control section 1-1.

That is, upon receiving a message containing a telephone number, the recipient can immediately know the name of the sender.
