As a prior art of alternative response, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 4-216221 discloses a mobile station that detects a driving situation of a called party and automatically sends an incoming-call-response hold signal. Indicates that the subsequent communication is suspended. In this publication, alternative response control is performed irrespective of the callee's will.

Further, as a conventional alternative response technique, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 5-122775 discloses a method for transmitting communication contents of a caller to the mobile station when the mobile station is in a state where it cannot respond. I have. FIG. 14 shows an example of the configuration. Referring to FIG. 14, the base station includes a mobile station state storage unit 1417 for storing a response state of the mobile station itself,
Automatically responding to a call from a device other than the mobile device when the status of the mobile device itself stored in the mobile device status storage unit 1417 is unresponsive or when a wireless communication line between the mobile devices cannot be configured.

[0008]

The prior art described above is
It has the following problems.

(1) The first problem is that in the prior art,
This means that incoming calls cannot be restricted by anyone other than the called party who owns the mobile.

Conventionally, in a mobile communication system, a receiving mobile station uses a method of notifying a called party by ringing (ringing) when a call arrives. The called party can restrict the incoming call by turning off the mobile device if he does not want to receive it.However, in a specific building such as a hotel, restaurant, hospital, etc., the administrator of the building etc. receives the incoming call. There is no means for restricting the case. In addition, there is a method of notifying the incoming call due to vibration, but also in a case where it is preferable to restrict the call itself to be annoying to others around the called party, in addition to giving individual attention verbally, the manager Had no means. The conventional techniques described in JP-A-4-347996 and JP-A-2-67829 have a problem in that control can be performed only by the called party himself.

[0011] The reason is that attention is paid only to the improvement of the convenience of the subscribers who use the mobile communication system, and no consideration is given to the people around the users and the environment, and no measures are taken. Responsible.

(2) The second problem is that, similarly to the reason for the first problem, the transmission from the mobile device cannot be restricted by a person other than the subscriber who owns the mobile device. It is. For this reason, for example, in a hospital or the like, there is no other way but to rely on the request of the user for the problem of malfunction of the medical device.

(3) The third problem is that compensation for the restriction on incoming calls is not sufficiently provided.

If the incoming call is restricted irrespective of the callee's will, no means is provided for the called party to confirm that the incoming call is restricted. JP-A-4-216221
In the prior art described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. H11-157, only the radio base station notifies the caller by voice, and the called party lacks a means for directly knowing the incoming call when the incoming call response is on hold. . Further, in the prior art described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 5-122575, when the response can be made by the storage means in the base station, it is possible to confirm the contents including the communication contents. Absent.

The reason is considered to be that the concept of compensation for the restriction on the incoming call was not sufficient.

(4) The fourth problem is that the basic control is performed by the exchange or the radio base station.
That's what it means. In particular, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 4-347996
In the prior art described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. H10-209, it is assumed that mobile units including transfer destinations are connected to the same exchange.
For this reason, there is a problem in providing a function when a plurality of exchanges or wireless base stations are provided.

The reason for this is that the processing load on the mobile device is reduced, and emphasis is placed on reducing cost and weight.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and has as its object the purpose of a specific area or building other than the called party regardless of the intention of the called party who owns the mobile device. It is an object of the present invention to provide a mobile communication system capable of restricting the transmission of a call from the mobile device and the reception of the call to the mobile device for an administrator.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a means for notifying the called party that the outgoing / incoming call is restricted, and a means for alternately responding to the incoming call, so as to provide the mobile station with a response. It is an object of the present invention to provide a mobile communication system provided with a compensating means for restricting the direct incoming call of the mobile communication system.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a mobile communication system capable of performing basic control with a mobile device and performing the control in an area or a building in which outgoing / incoming calls are restricted.
