Description

Caller's number request system and the service method

The present invention relates to a calling party numbering system and a method thereof, and in particular, when an existing mobile phone service is no longer available, the mobile phone terminal can continuously communicate with others by maintaining an existing mobile phone number even without owning a mobile communication terminal. A calling party numbering system and a service method thereof.

Conventional caller ID display service (CID) is a system that displays the number of the calling terminal on the receiver's terminal, so that the receiver can easily identify the caller's identity and the caller's contact information is recorded on the terminal so that there is no need to record the contact separately. It was. In this case, the calling terminal whose number is displayed on the receiver's terminal is limited to a terminal having a unique number subscribed to a wired / wireless communication service provider such as a landline telephone or a mobile communication terminal. No number was displayed. Therefore, when the caller uses a public telephone, a premises communication, etc., it is difficult to identify an identity and there is still a problem of separately recording the contact information of the caller.

On the other hand, the conventional collect call service is a service that allows the recipient to bear the charge when there is no coin or telephone card, and could receive the collect call service by using a local, long-distance landline telephone and mobile telephone. Referring to the process of using the above collect call service, the caller first calls the collect call service provider using a landline telephone or a public telephone. Thereafter, the phone number of the receiver is input according to the voice guidance, and is connected to the terminal (wired or mobile telephone) of the receiver through an exchange.

In this case, the receiver needs to know the identity of the caller. In the case of a domestic call, which has a relatively low fee, the process of providing information on the caller has been omitted, and in the case of an overseas call, information on the caller's identity is exchanged. Was provided. Therefore, in the case of domestic calls, the receiver is inconvenient not to be provided with information on the caller, and in the case of overseas calls, there is a problem that additional personnel are required.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to maintain the existing mobile phone number even if you do not own an existing mobile communication terminal number designation system that can continuously communicate with others and its service method To provide.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram of a calling party numbering system of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, the caller number assignment system 100 is connected to a mobile communication network 200 and a wired telephone network 300, and registers a module 10, an authentication module 20, a connection module 30, It consists of a process unit 50 including the voicemail module 40 and a storage unit 60 including a user database 62 and a connection waiter database 64.

At this time, the mobile communication network 200 connected to the caller number designating system 100 is a mobile communication service provider, ie, a cellular phone service provider, a personal mobile communication (PCS) service provider, and a frequency common communication service using a mobile terminal. TRS) operators and the like, and the landline network 300 is a concept that collectively refers to local, long distance, international calls. In addition, the process unit 50 of the calling party numbering system 100 follows a general CTI exchange configuration, and the storage unit 60 is implemented for the purpose of the present invention based on a commercial database management system.

The present invention is a system that allows the mobile communication subscriber to continue to communicate with others by using the existing terminal number even when the mobile communication subscribers can no longer receive the service due to military service, the user who wants to use the system first, Must be registered in the user database 62. At this time, the user can access the caller numbering system 100 and register his / her mobile phone number directly in the user database 62 through the registration module 10, as well as the mobile communication company that the user is using. When the caller's numbering system 100 is registered, the mobile carrier transmits a database storing the subscriber's personal information and mobile communication number to the registration module 10 of the system and registers the user collectively. This may be done. In addition, the user registration can be made by receiving a user database from a service partner other than the mobile carrier.

The registered user dials a specific telephone number (Access number, for example, 1588-0000) using the wired telephone network 300, and is then connected to the caller number specifying system 100. First, the authentication module 20 associated with the user database 62 authenticates whether the user is a valid user through a predetermined authentication procedure. If the user is authenticated as a valid user, the service of the calling party numbering system 100 may be used. If it is authenticated that the user is a valid user, the voicemail module 40 sends a short message, which is one of mobile communication services, to the called party to which the user wants to talk through the connection module 30. At this time, besides the short message, various methods such as direct call or voice message with the called party may be used, but the present caller number designating system 100 may use the user from the user database 62 when the direct call or message is sent. Read the registered mobile phone number and transmit the mobile phone number together.

On the other hand, when the user calls from the other party using the calling party numbering system 100 and is waiting for a call by the connection module 30, the mobile telephone number and the called party of the user (sender) are connected to the connection waiting database 64. 'S phone number is temporarily stored. Then, when the called party recognizes the caller through the short message received by the called party, and the called person presses the call button displayed on the mobile communication terminal, the access module 30 of the present calling party numbering system 100 The called party number sent by the user is read from the connection waiting database 64, and it is compared with the calling party number sent by the called party to determine whether there is a match. When the result of the determination is matched, a new call is generated by connecting the standby user and the called party.

As described above, the present invention enables the designation of the calling party number to the existing mobile communication number by using the mobile communication number in the idle state, and by connecting the new call in the calling party numbering system by the caller's callback function, the caller sends the existing mobile communication number. You can talk to the called party using.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a caller designation system according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, when an unspecified number of service subscribers call a specific number (access number), a guide message is sent from the caller number assignment system 100 (s510), and the user inputs an authentication number for authentication according to the guidance. It is made (s520). The calling party numbering system 100 determines whether the user is a registered effective user by the authentication module 20 (s530), and if it is determined that the user is not an effective user ('N' in s530), the calling party numbering system 100 determines that. A corresponding message and an end message are sent and automatically released (s590).

On the other hand, if it is determined that the user is an effective user in the authentication process (Y in S530), the caller ID designation system 100 sends a message to select whether to connect the call and waits for input of a selection signal from the user (s540). If the user does not select a call connection ('N' of s540), the service proceeds to voicemail mode (s545), and if the user selects a call connection ('Y' of s540), the user waits for the incoming number input (s550). At this time, if there is no input signal from the user for a predetermined time ('N' in s550), the caller number designating system 100 sends an error message and an end message corresponding thereto to automatically release the call (s590).

When the called party's number is received within a preset time ('Y' in S550), the calling party numbering system 100 transmits a message indicating a call intention to the called party by using a short message service, which is one of mobile communication services, or voice. The message is used to inform the called party of the caller's intention and the user waits. In this process, the called party's terminal displays his mobile phone number registered by the user in the calling party number designating system 100.

On the other hand, after the call is sent, the calling party numbering system 100 waits for a call from the called party (s560), and if a call is not received from the called party for a preset time ('N' in s560), the corresponding message and It sends the end message to the caller and automatically releases the call (s590), and if an outgoing call is received within a preset time ('Y' in s560), the caller's call is connected to the caller's call so that the call can be made to each other. (s570). However, when the end signal is sent from any one of the caller and the called party (s590), the call is automatically released.

In the above description, since the voice mailbox mode s545 is almost the same as or similar to the contents of the voice mailbox service of the mobile communication service, a detailed description of performance of these recording services (voice mailbox mode) will be omitted.

3 is a flowchart showing a caller designation system according to the present invention as another embodiment.

In FIG. 3, unlike FIG. 2, which connects a caller's call with the caller, the caller directly connects the call to the called party using the caller numbering system 100. Referring to FIG. 3, when an unspecified number of service subscribers call a specific number (Access number), a guide message is sent from the caller number assignment system 100 (s610), and the user receives an authentication number for user authentication according to the guide. It is input (s620). The calling party numbering system 100 determines whether the user is a registered valid user by the authentication module 20 (s630), and if it is determined that the caller is not an effective user ('N' in s630), the calling party numbering system 100 determines that the caller numbering system 100 The corresponding non-message and the end message are sent and automatically released (s690).

On the other hand, if it is determined that the effective user in the authentication process ('Y' in s630), the caller ID designation system 100 sends a message to select whether or not to connect the call and waits for a selection signal input from the user (540). If the user does not select the call connection (S640 'N') the service proceeds to the voicemail mode (s645), if you select the call connection (S640 'Y') wait for the incoming number input (s650). At this time, when there is no input signal from the user for a predetermined time ('N' of s650), the calling party number designating system 100 sends an error message and an end message corresponding thereto to automatically release the call (s690).

When the called party's number is received within a preset time ('Y' in s650), the calling party numbering system 100 connects the caller's call to the called party through the access module 30 instead of the short message and the voice message. At this time, the called party's terminal displays the mobile telephone number registered by the caller in the present calling party number designating system 100. The caller is connected to the caller of the called party to make a call to each other (s670), and when the end signal is sent from any one of the caller and the called party (s690), the call is automatically released.
