Description

Service method and device for personal assistant for IMT-2000 {Secretary service method for IMT-2000 and device about}

The present invention relates to a personal assistant service method for IMT-2000, and a device thereof, and to a technology for allowing a user using an IMT-2000 terminal to receive all desired services through voice.

In general, all currently used terminals (computers and mobile communication terminals, etc.) require the user to search for a menu using the keypad of the terminal and then select the corresponding menu in order to receive a service.

In the above-described method, a simple menu service is not very inconvenient, but a service that must select a menu several times is quite inconvenient if it is urgent.

Also, if you are not used to the keypad operation, you may not be able to receive the service properly.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the conventional inconveniences as described above, an object of the present invention is to provide a personal assistant service through which an IMT-2000 terminal can receive all services desired by a user without a keypad manipulation.

An interworking communication network 70 providing an interworking network between the IMT-2000 mobile communication exchange 40 and the personal assistant service system server 80;

A personal assistant service system server 80 providing a personal assistant service to the IMT-2000 mobile terminal 10 is provided.

Here, the IMT-2000 base station 20 performs a wired / wireless communication conversion function of wirelessly communicating with the IMT-2000 mobile terminal 10 and communicating with the IMT-2000 base station controller 30 by wire, and the IMT-2000 The base station controller 30 controls the transmission of information between the IMT-2000 base station 20 and the IMT-2000 mobile communication switch 40, and supports a plurality of IMT-2000 base stations 20.

The IMT-2000 visitor location register 50 temporarily stores the IMT-2000 mobile terminal 10 and the subscriber information, which are registered in the area in charge thereof, from the IMT-2000 home location register 60.

When the IMT-2000 subscriber requests a voice service, the IMT-2000 personal assistant service system server 80 determines whether the user is a real user of the IMT-2000 mobile terminal 10 to which the voice is currently input. Function, and if the service voice requested by the user is input, read the voice to determine which service is the requested service, or determine the type of service even if the service request is input with data other than voice. Function to provide services.

2 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of the IMT-2000 personal assistant service system server 80. The receiver 81 receives voice service requirements from an IMT-2000 user and displays a secretary when a personal assistant is called. ;

A voice recognition unit 82 for determining whether the received voice is a user of the currently input IMT-2000 terminal;

A service search unit 83 for searching for a desired service by reading an input voice service if the user is correct as a result of the determination;

The service providing unit 85 provides a service corresponding to the menu to the IMT-2000 terminal when the final menu selected by the user is input from the transmitted service information.

The function provided by the personal assistant service system server 80 configured as described above will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

When a voice for calling a secretary is input to the IMT-2000 mobile terminal 10, a voice of a pre-selected secretary is output as a response, and the user requests a service to be provided according to the secretary's response as a voice (A1).

When the voice is input, the IMT-2000 mobile terminal 10 recognizes that the input signal is a voice, not a digit, and then through the IMT-2000 base station 20 and the IMT-2000 base station controller 30, 40) (A2).

The IMT-2000 mobile communication exchanger 40 transmits the input voice to the IMT-2000 personal assistant service system server 80 through the interworking communication network 70, and the personal assistant service system server 80 receives the receiver 81. When the voice is input through the voice transmission to the voice recognition unit 82.

The voice recognition unit 82 searches the voice database and checks whether the voice received through the receiving unit 81 matches the actual user voice of the IMT-2000 mobile terminal 10 to which the current voice is input. Determine through (A3).

On the other hand, in the case of using the personal assistant service as described above, if the user requests an image of the personal assistant, the terminal 10 searches for an image in an image database existing in the personal assistant service system server 80 and requests the image to the terminal 10. Display.

Subsequently, as a result of determining the voice through the voice recognition unit 82, if it is the user, in order to provide the corresponding service requested by the user, whether the service currently requested by the service search unit 83 is a service that needs to be connected to an Internet site. Determine whether the service can be provided by the personal assistant service system server 80, and if the service should be connected to the Internet site, the service information is connected to the site (using a variety of information servers such as video service server and game service server), If the service can be provided by the server 80, the server 80 searches for service information (A4).

If the corresponding service is provided as a result of the search, the search result is transmitted to the IMT-2000 mobile terminal 10 through the transmission unit 84, and the user finally voices the service menu requested by the user. (A5).

When the voice is input, the service providing unit 85 in the personal assistant service system server 80 connects the IMT-2000 mobile terminal 10 to the Internet site if the menu selected by the user is a service that requires access to an Internet site. To be provided, otherwise the service is provided by the personal service system server 80 (A6).

For example, if the user wants to play a game using the terminal, the user inputs a voice to the terminal as 'game', and the terminal says 'the game currently has XXX, YYY, etc.' In the displayed game, when the user inputs a XXX game by voice, the game is executed. Also, when the user inputs a voice as 'Phone XXX-XXXX', the voice is 'Connected by XXX-XXXX'. Is output.

On the other hand, the voice of the secretary provided by the terminal can be used as the voice of the entertainer desired by the user, as well as the voice of the celebrity desired by the user, as well as the personal assistant image of the personal assistant service as mentioned above It can be used as a new character business because it can be displayed using a plant character.

As described in detail above, the present invention has an effect of improving convenience of a user's terminal by resolving the inconvenience that the user had to operate by hand when receiving an additional service using a mobile terminal.
