Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a message communication terminal used for message communication.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a message communication terminal such as a cellular phone or a pager (wireless calling terminal) displays a message composed of visually recognizable symbols such as characters and numerals on a liquid crystal display. Is performed, the sender of the message operates the communication terminal on the transmitting side to input and transmit the message. Examples of the mode of the message that can be transmitted and received include a free message mode and a fixed text mode.

In the free message mode, a two-digit code is assigned in advance to a symbol such as a character that can be transmitted and received. Then, the sender operates the push buttons 0 to 9 of the communication terminal on the transmission side to input a code, thereby generating an arbitrary message of the sender and transmitting the message.

[0004] In the fixed phrase mode, several digits of a code of a push button and an asterisk (*) are assigned to fixed phrases such as "Please call me" and "Where are you?" Then, when the sender inputs the code with the push button, the corresponding fixed phrase is transmitted.

[0005]

However, in the fixed phrase mode, codes are assigned to each fixed phrase, so that in order to prepare various fixed phrases in advance, many codes must be prepared in advance. Must be
The number of digits in the code increases. Therefore, it is necessary to enter a code of several digits in order to transmit a simple fixed phrase, and there is a problem that the amount of information of a message that can be transmitted at one time is small, and the code that the sender has to enter is long. Was. If the code transmitted in this way is long, the transmission time will be long and the facility utilization cost will be high. If a large number of fixed phrases are prepared in advance, it is difficult for the sender to remember the fixed phrases corresponding to the codes.

On the other hand, in the free message mode, the content of a message transmitted in one communication can be freely input, so that the amount of information can be increased. But,
Since a two-digit number is assigned to one symbol, the push button is pressed a total of 20 times, for example, 16 times for inputting an 8-character message, and 4 times for a control code for enabling katakana transmission. There is a problem that it is necessary and it takes time for an unskilled sender. In addition, since the length of the transmitted code is long, the transmission time is long, and the facility utilization cost is high.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and can reduce the length of code information transmitted in one communication, and can provide a rich amount of information to be received by a receiver. It is an object of the present invention to provide a message communication terminal capable of performing the following.

[0008]

In order to solve the above problems, a message communication terminal according to the present invention comprises a receiving means for receiving code information transmitted wirelessly, and a plurality of elementary data indicating a word or a phrase. A storage unit for classifying into first to n-th groups (n is an integer of 2 or more) and storing the elementary data in each group in association with the code information, a display unit capable of displaying symbols, and the reception unit Reading control means for allocating the received code information to the first to n-th groups in the order of reception according to a predetermined division method, and reading from the storage means the elementary data corresponding to the code information in the allocated group; Display control means for displaying the symbols corresponding to the elementary data read by the read control means on the display unit according to a predetermined display order; Characterized by comprising.

[0009]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1. 1. First Embodiment (1) Configuration First, FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a radio paging terminal (pager) which is a message communication terminal according to a first embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, reference numeral 1 indicates a receiving unit.
The receiving unit 1 includes an antenna, a receiver, and the like, receives a call in response to a call from a wireless communication network, and after this establishes a line, receives code information wirelessly transmitted. The receiving unit 1 amplifies and converts a signal transmitted wirelessly, and generates a received signal including the code information.

Reference numeral 2 denotes a CPU. The CPU 2 performs various processes for notifying a carrier of a message based on the code information received by the receiving unit 1 and according to a program stored in the ROM 3.

The ROM 3 stores a table in which the above-mentioned program and the code information received by the receiving unit 1 are associated with the elementary data indicating words or phrases for displaying a message.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a RAM used as a work area for work performed by the CPU 2. The code information received by the receiving unit 1 is transferred to a part of the RAM 4 via the bus 5. Here, code information relating to a plurality of messages can also be stored. The above table stored in the ROM 3 is transferred to another area of the RAM 4. CPU2
Refers to this table, selects the elementary data corresponding to the code information, and supplies it to the character generator 6 via the bus 5.

The character generator 6 outputs a character pattern corresponding to character data contained in the elementary data supplied via the bus 5. Reference numeral 7 denotes a display control unit, and the display control unit 7 causes the liquid crystal display unit 8 to display symbols such as characters and numerals based on the character pattern output from the character generator 6. Liquid crystal display 8
Is exposed on one side of the cabinet of the paging terminal, as shown in FIG.

In addition, the radio paging terminal is provided with a speaker or a vibrator for notifying a carrier of the fact when a call is made, a set button for displaying, protecting, and deleting stored messages, and the like. However, these illustrations are omitted.

(2) Operation Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. In this embodiment, the code information representing the message content is, for example,
It is represented by a three-digit number such as “001” or “810”. The three digits are the first digit (first group) in the order of reception. It is assigned to the second digit (second group) and the third digit (third group).

In the table transferred from the ROM 3 to the RAM 4, for example, as shown in Table 1, the elementary data indicating a word or a phrase is classified so as to correspond to each numerical code of the first to third digits. . In the example of Table 1, the first digit is variable numeric data, data such as location, the second digit is fixed phrase data,
The third digit is the sender identification data.

[Table 1]

The CPU 2 reads out elementary data corresponding to the numerical codes assigned to the first to third digits. For example, the received 3-digit numerical code is
If it is "810", "8 o'clock" is selected as the elementary data corresponding to the first digit "8", and "I do not need dinner" is selected as the elementary data corresponding to the second digit "1". Select 3
“H” is selected as the elementary data corresponding to the digit “0”. Thus, "8 o'clock" corresponding to the first to third digits
The elementary data of "I do not need dinner" and "H" are read.

The character generator 6 supplies a character pattern corresponding to the characters of the read elementary data to the display control unit 7. The display control unit 7 causes the liquid crystal display unit 8 to display characters corresponding to each digit in a predetermined display order. Here, it is assumed that the received numerical codes are displayed in the order of 1 to 3 digits. For example, in the example in which the received numerical code is “810”, as shown in FIG. 2, the display “8 o'clock for dinner” is displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 8. If the received numerical code is “001”, a message “Mother to be late today” is displayed. A blank may or may not be inserted between the elements corresponding to each digit as shown in FIG.

In this case, the display order is in the order of receiving the numerical codes. However, the display order is not limited to this. For example, the display may be in the order of the third digit, the first digit, and the second digit. In this case, in the example where the received numerical code is “810”, the display “No need for dinner at 8 o'clock” is displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 8.

Next, a procedure for transmitting the numerical code will be described. First, a sender performs a call operation by inputting a number corresponding to a wireless calling terminal by a bush operation in a terminal on the transmitting side. In the network exchange, the radio paging terminal to be called determines a system that can be received and displayed on the basis of the input number, and provides guidance to the sender to specify a transmission / reception system. Thus, the sender determines whether or not the type is capable of receiving and displaying the three-digit numerical code described above.

In the case of this type, the sender subsequently inputs a three-digit numerical value corresponding to the message to be transmitted by a push operation at the terminal on the transmitting side. Finally, the sender performs an operation to indicate the end of the message, for example, an operation of pressing the sharp (#) twice. As a result, the exchange calls the paging terminal, and the paging terminal receives a call in response to the paging, thereby transmitting and receiving the numerical code after the line is established.

If the sender inputs a code designating the transmission / reception method in advance without inputting the above-mentioned guidance before inputting the numerical code representing the message, the numerical code representing the message can be input. Is also good.
In this case, when the sender performs an operation indicating the end of the message, the exchange determines whether or not the terminal is a radio paging terminal that can receive in this transmission / reception method based on the input number of the call. A call is made to the calling terminal, and if transmission is not possible, an error message is sent to the transmitting terminal.

In the above described paging terminal, only 3
The use of the digit numerical code enables communication of various messages. That is, for each digit, 0-9
Theoretically, 10 ³
It is possible to communicate street messages. Also,
Assuming that if used as a numerical code also codes asterisk well, communicate a message of types 11 ^3. Although the code information of the first and second digits may not be combined, the content of the message transmitted and received in combination is very various.

[0024] Here, the sender can read all of the contents of the table set in the receiving paging terminal, or at least all of the first and second digit elementary data and the third digit elementary data. Of these, it is necessary to remember the identification code indicating the sender himself or to record it in a memo. Alternatively, it is necessary for the receiver to select at least one of the contents of the table set in his / her wireless paging terminal that has a possibility of transmission and reception, and to inform the sender. However, the number of combinations of messages that can be transmitted is 10 ³ or 11 ³ , but the number of codes that the sender must remember is 10 or 11 for each digit, so that at most 10 × 3 or Since the number is 11 × 3, the number is small, and the possibility of erroneous input or troublesome work is greatly reduced.

Further, by shortening the code information, the transmission time is shortened. This has the advantage that the equipment use cost is low for the sender. Furthermore, as described above, by classifying which digit of the code information has what meaning (that is, the first digit is a number, a place is the second digit, a fixed phrase, and the third digit is Has the advantage that the sender can easily understand and remember the meaning of the code for each digit. And it is possible to express abundant contents with a small number of codes.

In the case of this embodiment, if the numerical code to be transmitted and received is "810", the message will have a childish content such as "Horseless at 8:00".
Since a message including such a time is often transmitted on the assumption of an appointment or a habit of notifying the person to return home, "Horu will return home at 8:00. No dinner is required." The intent is inferable.

For example, if the numerical code to be transmitted / received is “991”, the message is “Wait at 9:00”
Although it looks like "mother", it is possible to fully infer from the display of such a message that the intention of "mother arrives at 9:00. I want you to wait". Also, if the sender and the receiver are in a close relationship with each other as a family member or have made a promise in advance, the message "Mother wants to perform facsimile transmission at 9:00." Or "I want my mother to eat together, so I want you to stay up until 9 o'clock."

(3) Modification Example of Table The table set in the above-described paging terminal is exemplified in Table 1, but the contents of the table are not limited to those exemplified. Next, another example that can be set will be described.

The way of dividing the elementary data set in the table is arbitrary. For example, as the elementary data corresponding to the first digit code in Table 1, instead of a time such as “8:00”, a combination of a time and a verb such as “Return at 8:00” may be set. Good. in this case,
The second digit of the elementary data, such as "I've arrived now", is unlikely to be sent, which narrows down the elementary data that the sender may select in the second digit, but "slows down". This is convenient if you want to send "I don't need dinner".

Further, for example, if the second digit numerical code "1" is set to "I do not want to go back to dinner,"
As the elementary data corresponding to the first digit numerical code, "6
Even if only the time such as "hour" or "7 o'clock" is set, it is possible to transmit and receive a message such as "I do not want to go home at 9 o'clock," depending on the combination of the first and second digit numerical codes.

It is to be noted that if it is assumed that transmission is not limited to one transmission but is performed a plurality of times, the elementary data is stored without considering the possibility of combination of elementary data corresponding to each digit. May be.

Table 2 is a setting example in which the setting of the sentence data for identifying the sender is omitted, and the possibility of transmission and reception of variable numbers and places is expanded accordingly. In this table, for example, the numerical code "062" can be expressed as "Come to the station now", and "093" means "Where are you? Call me"
Can be expressed as Also, by combining the first and second digits,
It can be expressed from 1 o'clock to 12 o'clock, and 10, 11,
Expressions of 12, 20, 21,... 90 are also possible, and it is possible to communicate the minutes.

[Table 2]

The setting example shown in Table 2 is considered to be effective when it is desired to transmit the time or time, for example, how many minutes or what time. In many cases, sender or other identification is not required. For example, the numerical code "124"
When the message "Return at 12:00" is sent, it is considered that the receiver knows in advance who the sender is in the family, and in that case, what preparation is necessary.

Also, when the numerical code "201" is transmitted as "20 late", not only is it notifying that "20 minutes late", but also what promise is delayed and who is late. It is considered possible to judge the situation.

Furthermore, what kind of elementary data is stored in each digit is free. For example, if the contents of the first and third digits in Table 1 are exchanged, or the third digit in Table 2 is changed to the first digit, the first digit and the second digit are shifted to the second and third digits, Good. If necessary, different types of elementary data may be mixed in each digit.

In the second digit of Table 2 already shown, numbers, places and fixed phrases are mixed. In this case, the last two digits “8”
Only "0" to "99" are two that combine two fixed phrases.
It is theoretically possible to send and receive 0 types of messages. In addition, if the sentence data including the second digit location is included, the transmission and reception of 70 types of messages, which are a combination of fixed phrases or a combination of a location and a fixed phrase, in the last two digits “30” to “99” are theoretically possible. It is possible.

Further, it is also possible to place emphasis on the sender identification and store the literary data for that purpose in a table and not to store the literary data representing numbers. Thereby, it is possible to transmit and receive a message such as “Ms.

In addition to the above, even when the sender inputs only one or two digits of code information, it is possible to receive the code information. In this case, a certain group is designated in advance as a group having the highest priority, and another group is designated in advance as a group having the next highest priority. For example, when the sender performs an operation indicating the end of the message without inputting only two digits, the corresponding elementary data is selected from the second and third digits in Table 1. As a result, the phone call mother, who frequently uses it every day,
Shoji "," Chira who doesn't need dinner "," Wait for Hideko "
And the like can be transmitted and received using two-digit code information. In addition, in the setting of Table 1, when the sender inputs only one digit of the code information, the elementary data is selected from the second digit of Table 1. This makes it possible to send and receive very simple messages with only one digit of code information.

Alternatively, for example, in each digit, an asterisk may be set as code information indicating that no message is displayed, or another numerical code may be set. In this case, if the sender inputs the code information, the paging terminal does not display the code information on the liquid crystal display unit 8. That is,
Even if the numerical code input by the sender is three digits, the radio paging terminal performs only a display corresponding to one or two digits.

Alternatively, if the sender has input only one or two digit code information, that is, if the transmitted numerical signal has one or two digits, another table is selected. You may. Table 3 shows an example of a table when only two-digit code information has been transmitted.
In this way, it is also possible to send and receive frequently used messages with two-digit code information.

[Table 3]

Table 4 shows an example of a table when only one-digit code information has been transmitted. In this case, a message that is frequently used on a daily basis and has specific contents is preferable. It is particularly convenient for the sender not to store the sentence data for sender identification.

[Table 4]

In the above-described embodiment, transmission and reception of three-digit code information is basically performed. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and code information of up to two digits can be transmitted and received. Good. In this case, the contents of the table previously stored in the ROM 3 and transferred to the RAM 4 are as shown in Table 3.
In this case, frequently used messages can be transmitted and received using two-digit code information.
Here, when only one-digit code information is transmitted, the above-described measures may be taken.

Further, code information having four or more digits may be transmitted and received. In this case,
Although the length of the transmitted / received code information is long, the phrases can be finely divided and stored in the digitized data of each digit, and the number of messages that can be transmitted / received can be further enriched. Table 5 shows an example of a table used when transmitting and receiving four digits.

[Table 5]

In the above description, the code information of the received signal is divided digit by digit, 10 or 11 elementary data corresponding to the code information of each digit are selected, and a message is represented by a combination of these elemental data. This is an example. In these examples, it is prevented that the number of combinations of transmission and reception code information becomes too large. Since there is not much code information required by the sender in daily life, it is considered that these examples are sufficiently useful.

However, although the number of code information is large,
An example illustrated in Table 6 is also conceivable. In this example, the code information that can be transmitted and received has five digits. The five-digit code information includes the first two digits (first group), the next two digits (second group), and the last one digit (third digit) in the order of reception.
Group). As shown in Table 6, the table transferred from the ROM 3 to the RAM 4 classifies the elementary data indicating a word or a phrase so as to correspond to each code information of the first to third groups. In the example of Table 6, 1
The second digit is fixed text data, such as variable numeric data, location data, and telephone number data, and the third digit is sender identification data.

[Table 6]

The CPU 2 reads out elementary data corresponding to the code information allocated to the first to third groups. Thereby, the liquid crystal display unit 8 has
Further various displays are provided. That is, if the first two digits include 100 types of "00" to "99" or asterisks are included in the code information, 121 types can be displayed, and the same applies to the next two digits. Therefore, although the sender has difficulty in memorizing the code information or searching from the recorded memo, it is possible to transmit and receive extremely various messages only by inputting the short code information. In addition, the number of digits of the third group may be set to two digits, and the number of digits of each group may be matched.

2. 2. Second Embodiment (1) Configuration and Operation Now, since the contents of messages to be transmitted and received vary from person to person, the carrier (recipient) or his / her guardian constructs a correspondence from the beginning, It is preferable that the correspondence between the numerical code and the elementary data can be changed. FIG. 3 shows a configuration of a radio paging terminal according to a second embodiment capable of flexibly responding to this request. Note that components common to the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof is omitted.

In FIG. 3, reference numeral 9 denotes an operation unit. The operation unit 9 is specifically composed of a mode setting button that is exposed on the cabinet of the radio paging terminal and that can be operated externally, a button for calling symbols such as characters, a selection button, and a registration button. In this embodiment, elementary data can be edited for a numerical code.

First, the recipient or his / her guardian (hereinafter simply referred to as the recipient) operates the mode setting button to
Put the paging terminal in edit mode. Then, the first
The type of the group such as the group and the numerical codes belonging to the group are displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 8. Next, the recipient:
Operate the symbol call button and use the character generator 6
The character pattern stored in advance is called and displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 8. Here, when the symbol call button is depressed, the next candidate of the character pattern is displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 8.

When the target character pattern candidate is displayed on the liquid crystal display section 8, the receiver operates the selection button to select the character. When the operation of the symbol call button and the selection button is repeated to complete the target word or phrase, the receiver operates the registration button. Thereby, the elementary data corresponding to the numerical code of the group displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 8 is determined, and the RAM 4
Is stored.

By repeating the above operation, the RAM
In No. 4, a table in which the elementary data is classified into first to n-th groups (n is an integer of 2 or more) and the elementary data in each group is stored in association with the code information is completed. In this way, the recipient can freely construct the contents of the table.

When the editing mode is set for the second time or later, the type of the group, the numerical code belonging to the group,
Then, the phonemes already stored in the RAM 4 are first displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 8, and then, when the symbol call button is pressed, the contents of the phoneme data can be edited.

(2) Modification Example The elementary data may be set for the numerical codes of all the groups. For example, the table of the numerical codes and the elementary data of a certain group may not be rewritten. It is also possible to use those stored in the ROM 3 in advance, and to store the other groups of tables in the RAM 4 so as to be rewritable. For example, it is preferable that the sentence-identified text element data is stored in the RAM 4 as a rewritable group, and that the fixed text sentence data is stored in the ROM 3 as a non-rewritable group.

Alternatively, in one group, the elementary data corresponding to a certain numerical code is stored in the RAM 4 in a rewritable manner, and the elementary data corresponding to another numerical code is stored in the ROM 3 in a non-rewritable manner. It is also possible to keep.

Further, it is also possible to store in advance ROM element candidates in the ROM 3 so that the recipient can select arbitrary element data from them. in this case,
In place of the above-mentioned symbol call button, a button for calling text element data may be provided. It is also possible to enable both the selection of such elementary data and the input of each of the symbols described above.

3. Third Embodiment FIG. 4 shows a configuration of a paging terminal according to a third embodiment of the present invention. This wireless calling terminal includes a tone generator 10 and a speaker 11. The tone generator 10 and the loudspeaker 11 may be used to notify the wearer of the fact when calling.

Here, the ROM 3 stores in advance the tone data to be supplied to the tone generator 10. Also, in place of a part of the phoneme data, music designation data indicating music data is stored in advance in the ROM 3,
Transfer to AM4.

If the code information received and distributed and the data corresponding to the above group are music designation data, the CPU 2 reads out the tone data corresponding to the music designation data from the ROM 3 and reads the music data. It is supplied to the generator 10. The tone generator 10 controls the speaker 11 based on the tone data to generate a performance sound.

Table 7 shows an example of a table used in this embodiment. Here, in the first group (first digit), text element data indicating the location, music designation data, and the like are associated with the code information. If the transmitted / received code information is, for example, “581”, the music A is generated by the speaker 11, and “returning mother” is displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 8. This embodiment can be particularly playful if the carrier is a child or a young person.

[Table 7]

From this point of view, it is preferable to select in advance, for example, “sunset small burnt”, a theme song of a popular animation, or the like, as the music to be played. For example, set "Small sunset glow" as song A and "Return"
Is displayed, the musical piece A is played, so that the intention of the sender can be more strongly impressed.

In this embodiment, various modifications similar to the above-described modification of the table of the first embodiment are possible. For example, even when the sender inputs only one or two digits of code information, it is possible to enable the reception of the code information. In the example of Table 7, only the display of fixed phrases and the performance of music may be performed, or only the performance of music may be performed. In the case where only music is performed, it is sufficient that a sender and a receiver decide in advance which music means what message.

Further, code information of up to two digits may be transmitted and received. Table 8 is an example of the table in that case. In addition, a change such as transmission and reception of four or more digits of code information shown in Table 5 and a change of distributing a two or more digits code to each group from the received code information shown in Table 6 are also possible.

[Table 8]

As in the second embodiment, the receiver or his / her guardian selects the music designation data while selecting the music designation data.
4, it is also possible to construct a table and edit the table.

3. Others The message communication terminal in the above embodiment is
The present invention is not limited to a wireless paging terminal (pager type), but may be a two-way communication terminal such as a transceiver or a mobile phone.

[0065]

As described above, according to the present invention,
The length of code information transmitted in one communication can be shortened,
Moreover, the amount of information received by the receiver can be made rich.
