Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify an input operation when a free message and a fixed message are transmitted to a radio selective call receiver of system that receives a message number and displays a corresponding fixed message. CONSTITUTION:A central control unit 2 equipped with an RPT 3 which discriminates whether or not the fixed message is included in call information inputted to an input means 1 and converts a part where the fixed message exists when it exists to a corresponding message number, and a PP 4 which outputs information converted to the number by encoding is provided at a call device which performs a radio selective call, thereby, the transmission of the fixed message utilizing the message number can be automatically realized even when the free message and the fixed message are inputted without discriminating to the input means of the central control unit 2.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a radio selective calling device in a radio selective calling base station that calls a radio selective calling receiver with a display function.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when making a call to a wireless selective calling receiver with a display function that is pre-equipped with a fixed message, a message number corresponding to the fixed message is sent in place of the fixed message in order to improve transmission efficiency. Sending is done. Therefore, this type of receiver has a memory that stores a fixed message and a message number accompanying the message, and a memory that decodes the message number included in the received signal received via the antenna and assigns the number to the corresponding message. , a central processing unit for converting the message into a deciphered message, a storage means for storing the converted message, and a display means for displaying the decoded message.

[0003] In such a call, the radio selective calling base station making the call just inputs the identification number of the receiver and the message number corresponding to the fixed message into the input means of the radio selective calling device. However, when sending a free message other than a fixed message, the message is input as is into the input means along with the receiver's identification number.

0004

[Problem to be Solved by the Invention] In such a conventional calling system with messages, when making a call using a fixed message, the person inputting the radio selective call base station has to search for the message number corresponding to each fixed message. After that, the user inputs the number into the input means. On the other hand, when attempting to input a free message other than a fixed message, the inputter inputs the message as is into the input means. As described above, since the input methods for fixed messages and free messages are different, the input operation becomes complicated and troublesome, and there is a problem in that the inputter is likely to be confused. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a wireless selective calling device that simplifies the input operation of a calling message.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems] The wireless selective calling device of the present invention determines whether a fixed message is included in wireless selective calling information consisting of an input identification number and a message, and if it is a fixed message, it A central control unit is provided which converts the part into a corresponding message number, encodes and outputs the processed radio selective calling information.

[0006] For example, the central control unit determines whether a fixed message is included in the wireless selective calling information consisting of the input identification number and message, and if it is a fixed message, converts that part into a corresponding message number. The radio paging terminal includes a radio paging terminal that performs the processing, and a paging processor that encodes and outputs the processed radio selective call information.

[0007]

[Operation] According to the present invention, even if a free message and a fixed message are input at the same time, the central control unit identifies the fixed message and automatically converts this part into a message number, encodes it, and outputs it. .

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a radio selective call base station according to the present invention. In the figure, the radio selective call base station includes a radio selective call information input means 1 consisting of a receiver identification number and a message, and a central control unit 2 that encodes the input information into a radio selective call signal and outputs it. and,
An expander (EXP) 5 that performs position compensation and transmission control for each transmitter and sends the output from the central controller 2 to the transmitter 6, and modulates and amplifies the radio selective paging signal and sends it into the air. It is composed of a transmitter 6 and a transmitter 6. The central control unit 2 is a radio paging terminal (RPT) that receives call information, checks the identification number of the receiver, identifies the type of message, and converts it into a fixed message number.
inal ) 3 and a paging processor (PP) that queues and encodes call information.
(Processor) 4.

[0009] The message type identification in the RPT3 involves determining whether the input message is a fixed message or a free message, and if the message includes a fixed message, that part is assigned the corresponding message number. Convert to Further, the PP4 encodes a free message, message number, etc. together with an identification number etc. into a radio paging signal.

The processing operation of paging information in the wireless selective paging base station having this configuration is shown in the flowchart of FIG. That is, the call information consisting of a receiver identification number and a message input into the central control device 2 using the input means 1 is first checked in the RPT 3 of the central control device 2 to see if the identification number is already registered. The number is confirmed, and if the number is unregistered, the call is rejected (Step 1). If the number is already registered, it is determined whether all or part of the input message is a fixed message (step 2). If the fixed message is confirmed, that part is converted into a corresponding message number, and if the fixed message is not confirmed, the message is sent as is to the PP4 (step 3). PP4 performs queuing and encoding of call information (steps 4 and 5). This encoded calling signal is modulated by the transmitter 6 through the EXP5,
After being amplified, it is sent into the air. Note that EXP5 performs phase compensation and transmission control for each transmitter.

[0011] As a specific example, Tables 1 to 3 show example sentences 70 for shortening and converting a fixed message into a message number.

0012

[Table 1]

[0013]

[Table 2]

[0014]

[Table 3]

For example, if the inputter inputs the following message along with the identification number of the receiver, the central controller 2 in FIG.
In RPT3, the input message is compared with the text examples in Tables 1 to 3, and the fixed message part is converted into a message number as follows. Example 1 Input message: THIS IS A TEST ME
SSAGE sending message: --65

Example 2 Input message: WHAT TIME WILL YO
U ARRIVE? I WILL BE DELAY
ED UNTIL 6:00 PM. MIKE send message: --13--126:00 PM. M.I.
KE Note that in these messages, "--" before the message number is a key command indicating that the message is a fixed message.

In example 1, since the input message is text number 65, the message is converted to "--65" and then sent to the receiver. Also, in example 2, among the input messages, “WHAT TIME WILL Y
OU ARRIVE? ” is number 13, “I WILL B
Since "E DELAYED UNTIL" is message number 12, the respective parts are "--13" and "-
−12”, and for the receiver it is converted to “−−13−−
126:00PM. The converted message “MIKE” is sent.

[0018]

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, when a fixed message is included in an input message, it is automatically converted into a number, so the inputter does not have to search for the message number. In addition, there is no need to judge and distinguish between free messages and fixed messages, and input can be performed easily.
