WIRELESS DEVICE WHICH IS ABLE TO CONVERT OUTPUT SIGNAL ACCORDING TO THE INPUT CONDITION}

The present invention relates to a wireless terminal capable of converting an output signal according to an input condition. More particularly, the present invention relates to a wireless terminal capable of confirming a sender or contents even when a message or schedule alarm does not require a separate operation. A wireless terminal capable of converting an output signal.

In recent years, wired and wireless communication operators have provided additional call-related services called 'caller number display service', and are commonly referred to as 'caller ID service', or 'CID service' for short. The CID service provides caller's name, telephone number, other time information for incoming and outgoing calls according to the signal standard according to the International Telecommunication Union V.32 protocol.

The CID service is widely used in terms of protecting the recipient's privacy and protecting the recipient's option to receive a call by confirming the caller after the caller can confirm the caller's confirmation.

In particular, as the use of a mobile phone, which is a wireless communication terminal, increases, the receiver selects reception according to the caller when using the mobile phone, thereby preventing waste of time and battery due to a call with an undesired caller.

However, if the receiver does not know who the calling party number is, even if the calling party number is displayed, the calling party number is not displayed. Accordingly, even if the caller ID is displayed, the caller may not receive or answer the call at random if the caller is not known. In this case, even if the number is not memorized by the recipient, if it is an important business or personal phone, the recipient may see a failure if not received.

Such a CID service can be serviced only when a call is received, and when a message is received, the user can press the menu button a few steps to confirm the caller's phone number and the contents of the message.

On the other hand, the latest wireless communication terminal has an electronic organizer function for managing the schedule, and according to the schedule is to sound an alarm on the day or time. However, as in the case of receiving a message, only the alarm for notifying the schedule sounds, and the contents of the schedule cannot be known until the user directly confirms it.

Therefore, even if the receiver is separated from the wired or wireless terminal, even if the terminal is not operated when the message or the schedule alarm, it should be to find a way to check the sender or the contents.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a wireless portable terminal capable of converting an output signal according to an input condition allowing a user to check a caller or contents even when a user does not operate a message or a schedule alarm.

The setting information may be a text input by the user in a variety of information including the external information, may be selected from a message provided as a text from the sender, or may be a message created by the user, previously stored in the memory 11 It is.

On the other hand, the memory 11 is a ROM containing a control program necessary for controlling the central processing unit 10, a non-volatile memory unit that stores the above-mentioned internal information and the like, along with the telephone number and name input by the user, and the control program And RAM for temporarily storing and processing data generated during control.

An example of using the wireless terminal having such a configuration will be described with reference to FIG. 2.

First, the user selects one or a plurality of service provision conditions and information to be output from among various service provision conditions (S10), and the selected service provision conditions and information are stored in the nonvolatile memory unit of the memory 11.

When a call or a message is received (S20), a wireless signal is input from the base station through the duplexer 21 and provided to the wireless receiver 23, and in the case of a telephone, the wireless receiver 23 receives a voice signal from the voice processor 31. At the same time, the control unit 15 notifies that the call is received and, in the case of a message, transmits a text signal to the control unit 15. The controller 15 determines whether to drive the output conversion program 17 according to whether the telephone or message reception is set in the service provision condition set by the user (S30).

When the user sets to receive the output conversion upon reception of a call or a message, the control unit 15 drives the output conversion program 17 (S40), and the information and time conversion unit 13 stored in advance in the memory 11. One of the current times converted by) is provided to the output conversion program 17 (S50). If the user sets the output of the current time, the control unit 15 draws the current time from the time conversion unit 13 and provides it to the output conversion program 17 (S60). In the present invention, the current time from the time conversion unit 13 is converted into a voice signal or a text "Current time when the telephone is 00: 00" or "Current time when the message is 00: 00" (S70). . Then, the control unit 15 provides the voice signal of the current time to the reception display unit 33, and in the case of a text, to the display unit, and the reception display unit 33 transmits the voice signal to the speaker 38. The character is outputted and displayed on the display unit 37 (S80).

Then, when the output of the voice signal or text is completed, the output is terminated in the case of telephone reception (S90, S100), and in the case of receiving a message, the contents of the message may be output as the voice signal or text. At this time, if the message content is converted and outputted, it is preferable to check whether the message content is output to the user before printing, such as "I will output the message content. If you do not want, please select the menu key" (S110). If the user wants to output the voice or text of the message content, the control unit 15 provides the received message to the output conversion program 17, and the output conversion program 17 converts the message content into a voice signal or a text and outputs it. (S120, S130). At this time, regardless of the voice message and the text message, the user may output the voice signal or the text according to whether the user selects the voice signal output or the text output.

In the above example, when the user selects English information such as an English sentence or a word as output voice or text information, the controller 15 selects one of the English information stored in the memory 11 and provides it to the output conversion program 17. (S55). If the English sentence "He is the last man to desert a friend" and the interpretation "he is never a friend" are provided, the output conversion program 17 converts each sentence into a voice or text signal. (S65), the converted voice signal is output to the speaker 38 through the reception display unit 33, and the character is output through the display unit 37 (S75).

If the user selects the output of the caller's name as the information to be output, the controller 15 compares the caller's phone number with the phone number stored in the nonvolatile memory unit, and outputs the name when the corresponding phone number is stored. Provided by (17). The output conversion program 17 converts the voice signal or text "call from 000" or "message from 000" using the provided caller name, and the control unit 15 receives the display unit 33. Or it is provided to the display unit 37 to be output through the speaker 38.

The user may select various pieces of information to be output. For example, when the current time and the caller's name are selected, the voice signal or text converted by the output conversion program 17 is output as "Call came from 000 at 00: 00 at the present time".

Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 3, when the user selects an alarm or a schedule as a service provision condition (P10), when the current time converted by the time conversion unit 13 reaches a predetermined time (P10), P20), the current time is provided to the output conversion program 17 together with the contents of the alarm or schedule stored in the memory 11. Here, in the case of an alarm, a predetermined time is an alarm set time, and in the case of a schedule, the predetermined time may be set to a specific time of a schedule day or a morning of a schedule day. Then, in the case of an alarm, the output conversion program 17 converts the information into a voice signal or a text, "Current time is 00: 00, which is a wake-up time." I have an appointment at '00 coffee shop with you "and convert it to voice signal or text (P30, P40). The converted voice signal or text is directly provided from the controller 15 to the speaker 38 and the display unit 37 and outputted (P50).

Meanwhile, in the above-described embodiment, only a case in which a call or a message is received as a service provision condition, an alarm or a schedule is notified is described. However, when the user opens a flip or a folder, when the user selects a predetermined key, etc. In various service provision conditions, as in the above example, various information such as current time, English information, and schedule information may be provided.

In addition, similar to the alarm function can be set to provide the current time at a predetermined time interval, and various services such as to be able to automatically output the English information once a day.

In addition, when a user wants to output both a voice signal and a text by using an output conversion program, both the voice signal and the text may be output, and the form of information that can be converted through the output conversion program is voice. It is a matter of course that the present invention is not limited to a signal and a text, but may be provided in various ways such as setting a different voice signal and text according to a scent or a sender.

In this way, the wireless terminal modulates the reception time, caller name, message content, etc. into a voice signal and / or text when the telephone or message is received, thereby outputting the call or message even if the user does not operate the wireless terminal. You can easily understand the contents. In addition, since the schedule information is provided in voice and / or text, the schedule can be prevented from being lost due to forgetting the schedule.

On the other hand, by using the wireless terminal can obtain a variety of information desired by the user as a voice signal or text, and the user does not have to find the information directly, but provided by the wireless terminal side, so that it can provide convenience and satisfaction to the user do.

As described above, according to the present invention, since the user can easily grasp information such as a message and a schedule even if the user does not operate the wireless terminal, it is easy to check information such as a message and a schedule.
