DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A radio selective calling receiver according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG.
Is a radio selective calling receiver 20 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing the configuration of FIG. In FIG.
Is a receiving unit that receives a message or the like to be transmitted, 2 is a main control unit that controls each processing unit, 3 is a paging control unit that performs paging control, and 4 is a radio control paging reception 20. Reference numeral 5 denotes a sounding unit for calling by sound, reference numeral 6 denotes a melody unit for calling by melody, and reference numeral 7 denotes a vibrator unit for calling by vibration. .
Reference numeral 8 denotes a display unit for displaying a received message or the like, reference numeral 9 denotes a message check unit for analyzing the received message, and reference numeral 10 denotes a storage unit for storing various information.

Next, information stored in the storage unit 10 will be described. The storage unit 10 stores a designated call information table in which designated call information, which is a symbol for designating a calling method as shown in FIG. 3, is associated with a melody and a sound. For example, when “A1” indicated by reference numeral 31 is designated as the designated call information, the melody at this time is “melody A” and the sound is “sound 1”. The storage unit 10 also stores a rejection mode table in which an identification number of the transmitting side that rejects a call from the transmitting side is stored. Further, the message is stored so that the received message can be displayed at any time.

Here, an example of a message transmission rule using designated call information shown in the designated call information table will be described with reference to FIG. In FIG. 4, as indicated by reference numeral 41, Mr. A writes designated call information to A in a normal call.
1, that is, a call is made using "Melody A" and "Ringing sound 1" as indicated by reference numeral 31 in FIG.
It is assumed that a call is made using "melody A" and "ringing sound 4" as shown in FIG. . That is, the transmitting party can be identified by changing the melody, and the urgency of the message can be identified by changing the sound. When a message having the content "TEL KUDASAI &A1" is transmitted as the "message content" at reference numeral 41, the message before "&" is the message displayed on the display unit 8, and the message after "&" is the designated call information. The message is transmitted under the message transmission rule that indicates Then, the radio selective call receiver 20 analyzes the received message, and when it is determined that the designated call information is “A4” · 31, the “call ring on the receiving side” in the column of reference numeral 41 in FIG. As shown, a call is made with "Melody A" to indicate the sender, followed by a call with "Ring 1" to indicate the degree of urgency. Similarly, as shown in FIG. 4, it is determined in advance which designated call information is to be called between each transmitting party and the holder of the radio selective call receiver 20, and the radio selective call receiver 20 Call according to the designated selective call information.

Next, the operation of the radio selective calling receiver 20 will be described. FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing the operation of radio selective calling receiver 20 in the present embodiment. The operation will be described below with reference to FIG. First, initial settings such as setting of a normal calling method are performed (step S).
1). Here, it is assumed that a vibrator mode using the vibrator unit 7 is initially set as a normal calling method. Next, the main control unit 2 enters a standby mode in which a message from the other party can be received (step S).
2).

In the standby mode state, the key operation of the operation unit 4 changes the identification number of the transmitting side that rejects the call in the rejection mode table stored in the storage unit 10. If it is determined that there is a "request", the process proceeds to step S10. When the process proceeds to step S10, the key operation information on the operation unit 4 is fetched, the content of the key operation is determined by the main control unit 2, and the content is displayed on the display unit 8. It should be noted that the holder of the radio selective call receiver 20 sets the rejection identification number while checking the display on the display unit 8. When the processing in the rejection setting mode is completed, the main control unit 2 notifies the message check unit 9 of the setting contents, and is registered in the rejection mode table in the storage unit 10 as an identification number for rejecting the call, It returns to step S2. Then, in the standby mode (step S2), when the receiving unit 1 receives the selected reception signal transmitted from the transmitting party, the receiving unit 1
Determines whether the received selected reception number matches the identification number indicating itself, and if so, notifies the main control unit 2 of the reception information. Then, the main control unit 2 notifies the message content of the received selection reception signal to the call control unit 3 and the message check unit 9 (step S3).

The call control unit 3 receiving the message determines whether there is designated call information (step S4). This determination is made based on whether or not “&” is present in the message. Then, it is determined whether or not the two digits after "&" in the message are registered in the designated call information table stored in the storage unit 10 (step S5). By referring to the designated call information table stored in 10, call processing using a melody and a sound corresponding to the designated call information is performed, and the message content is stored in the storage unit 10 by the message check unit 9. (Step S6 ~
S9).

For example, when a message "TEL KUDASAI &A1" is received from Mr. A as indicated by reference numeral 41 in FIG. 4, "A1" is determined to be the designated call information (step S4), and the designated call information table From this, it can be understood that the designated call uses "melody A" and "ringing 1" (step S5), so that the melody unit 6 is controlled to output "melody A" as shown in step S6, and then the ringing The section 5 is controlled to output "sound 1". Meanwhile, from Mr. A "
When the message “TEL KUDASAI & A4” is received, “A4” is determined as the designated call information (step S4), and the designated call information using “Melody A” and “Ringing tone 4” is obtained from the designated call information table. Since it is understood (step S5), the melody unit 6 is controlled to output "melody A" by a step not shown, and then the sounding unit 5 is controlled to output "ringing sound 4".

As a result of checking the contents of the message, if there is no portion corresponding to the specified call information (step S4), or the symbol below "&" in the specified message is not in the specified call information table in the storage unit 10. In this case (step S5), it is assumed that the call is a normal call, and
Proceed to 11. Then, the call control unit 3 refers to the rejection mode table in the storage unit 10 and determines whether the rejection mode is set for the identification number of the transmission side (step S11). If the reject mode is set for the received identification number of the other party, the call control by the call control unit 3 is not performed. Further, this message is not stored in the storage unit 10 by the message check unit 9 and the message content is not notified to the display unit 8.

On the other hand, if the reject mode is not set for the received content, the call control unit 3 makes a call and the message check unit 9 according to the call operation set in the initial setting in step S1. Thus, the message is stored in the storage unit 10 and can be notified to the display unit 8 at any time. Note that, as the radio selective call receiver 20 in the above embodiment, the correspondence between the designated call information, the melody and the ringing tone is shown in the designated call information table in the storage unit 10, but only the association with the melody is performed. Alternatively, at least the originating party may be identified. Also, as the radio selective calling receiver 20 in the above embodiment, the calling operation based on the designated calling information is described as performing a sound after the melody,
However, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be reversed.

[0018]

As described above, according to the radio selective calling receiver of the present invention, the following effects can be obtained. According to the first aspect of the present invention, the radio selective call receiver stores a specified call information table indicating a correspondence between the specified call information specifying the calling method and the melody, and the call control means specifies the specified message in the received message. It is determined whether or not the call information is added. If the specified call information is added, the call using the melody corresponding to the specified call information is performed with reference to the specified call information table. Thereby, when the radio selective calling receiver is called while the radio selective calling receiver is in a bag or the like, a designated ringing tone is heard from the radio selective calling receiver, and it is immediately known from whom. Therefore, it is not necessary to take out the bag and check the message contents for the purpose of checking the transmitting party. According to the second aspect of the present invention, the wireless selective calling resin machine includes:
A designated call information table indicating correspondence between designated call information for designating a calling method, a melody and a sound is stored. Call control means determines whether the designated call information is added to the received message. If added, a call is made using a melody and a sound corresponding to the designated call information with reference to the designated call information table. Thereby, the holder of the radio selective call receiver can know the urgency of the call without looking at the message when the radio selective call receiver receives a call, for example, while driving a car. As a result, the probability of avoiding driving aside is increased, and the probability of encountering a traffic accident is reduced.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, a rejection mode table in which call rejection is set for a call from the caller is further stored, and the call control means includes:
If the received selective reception signal corresponds to the call rejection stored in the rejection mode table, control is performed so as not to make a call. As a result, even if a stranger on the transmitting side who does not know and sends a message many times can be prevented from calling, it is possible to cope with mischief. According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, a rejection mode table in which a call rejection is set for a call from the caller is further stored, and the received selective reception signal is stored in the rejection mode table. A message check unit is further provided for preventing the display when the rejection is applied. As a result, even if a stranger on the transmitting side sends a message many times, this message is not displayed, so that unpleasant thoughts can be avoided.
