BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a portable terminal of a radio pager system, and more particularly, to a portable terminal of a private paging system called private paging.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A radio call is a system for calling a specific receiving terminal by radio from a radio base station using a general subscriber telephone network. With over 10,000 subscribers. It is a wireless system commonly called “pager” or “pager”.

[0003] The portable terminal can receive services not only outdoors but also in a wide area including indoors with a small receiver, and is very inexpensive. It has become an explosive epidemic among high school girls, creating a situation that can be described as a kind of social phenomenon. Regarding the service contents, from the initial ringing tone only, the one that informs the call by vibration, the one that displays numbers and characters on the liquid crystal display device at the same time, the two call numbers A variety of services, such as identifiable ones, have been realized with the progress of mobile terminals. Furthermore, with the advance of integrated circuit technology, portable terminals have been miniaturized, and so-called credit card sized devices having a thickness of 5 mm or less are mainly used. Representative wireless communication systems include, besides the NTT system, the POCSAG system and Go, which are widely used in Europe and the like.
There is a lay method. Also, as a next-generation wireless paging wireless communication system, a FLEX system capable of two-way communication is being put to practical use.

On the other hand, private paging is a radio call mainly used for one's own purpose, which is used in one premises, and is one type of private radio. Private radio is a system that is simpler than conventional business radio, has a wider communication range than radio equipment that emits weak radio waves, and is protected from interference. As systems included in the premises radio, there are four systems: a telemeter / telecontrol system, a data transmission system, a premises paging system, and a mobile identification system. The paging system uses a 400 MHz band and has a transmission output of 10 mW.
Below, 5 channels are available. The purpose is to transmit commands and information from one base, such as an office, to a worker or the like moving with a portable device. The communication mode is based on one-way data transmission. It is widely used for calling employees in factories, nurse calls in hospitals, and business communication in hotels and the like. Information can be transmitted from personal computers and telephones in the private branch exchange system.

Further, a system called a digital cordless telephone for business use has newly appeared. This is a cordless telephone that uses the same method as a public mobile phone (PHS) for an extension phone on the premises.
This system can be used as a wireless terminal for extension telephones and can be connected to a general public line as a simplified portable telephone (PHS) terminal outside the office.

[0006]

In a business establishment in Japan that requires a premises paging system, in most cases, each member of the business places a name tag or ID card on clothes. It is usually attached to the surface. In the case of foreign-affiliated companies, there are cases where ID cards with face photographs are attached.

[0007] However, there is no conventional private paging call receiver with this name tag or identification.

[0008] It is an object of the present invention to improve the convenience by having the portable terminal of the radio paging system display the identity of the holder, thereby also serving as an identification card.

[0009]

The above object is achieved by attaching an identification card with an adhesive seal to the surface of a portable terminal.

Further, the above object is achieved by providing a member capable of holding an identification card on the surface of the portable terminal, and holding the identification card on the member.

[0011] Further, the object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal display on the surface of a portable terminal, a first memory for storing information for proving the identity inside the portable terminal, and the liquid crystal display in the liquid crystal display in a reception waiting state. This is achieved by providing control means for displaying the information stored in the first memory and displaying the received information on the liquid crystal display when a call signal and an additional message are received from the outside.

A further object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal display on a surface of a portable terminal, a first memory for storing information for proving the identity inside the portable terminal, a call signal and an additional message received from the outside. And a second memory for storing information stored in the first memory on the liquid crystal display in a waiting state for reception, and a second memory for receiving a call signal and an additional message from outside. This is achieved by providing control means for controlling the liquid crystal display to display it on the liquid crystal display after storing it.

[0013] According to the above means, an identification card such as a name tag, an identification card, and a face photograph is displayed on the surface of the portable terminal, and each member of the business office carries the identification card at all times. And each member's identification card to be carried.

[0014] In addition, information for proving the identity is displayed on the liquid crystal display of the portable terminal in the waiting state for reception, and when the call signal is received, the received information is displayed and shared, so that the identity of each portable person is displayed. Can be proved.
