The present invention relates to a lettering service method, and more particularly, to a lettering service method that attempts to connect to a call by simultaneously transmitting a lettering message written by a caller and a called party's telephone number in order to implement a different lettering service for each called party.

Recently, the mobile phone has emerged as a representative communication device for transmitting information with a specific counterpart through a mobile communication network, has become an indispensable communication device in social life, and provides a lot of convenience in life.

However, due to the characteristics of this mobile phone, there is a problem that causes serious social problems such as invasion of communication privacy, such as anonymous phone calls, indecent phone calls, and stalking.

Therefore, in recent years, a caller identification service (CID; Caller IDentification) has been developed and used to solve the anxiety caused by the above-mentioned phone violence and to display the caller's information on the receiver's terminal for sound phone use. The requested mobile carrier is providing the service.

However, by using a service provided to compensate for such a negative aspect, a lettering service for displaying on the called party's mobile terminal when a call is input by inputting a lettering message informing the user of the calling mobile phone has already been provided.

While the existing CID is forcibly performed by the mobile communication service provider, the use of the service is diversified since it can be usefully used to inform the self by sending a lettering message actively input by the caller.

By the way, this lettering service, after the user who wants to apply for the lettering service, saves the lettering message in advance on the lettering service server, and then transmits the lettering message stored in the lettering service server in advance when the caller is connected to the called party's mobile phone. As a result, the simplicity of delivering the same lettering message to all called parties.

In order to overcome this, due to the hassle of assigning a lettering message set to each caller differently to a lettering service server, a caller cannot effectively deliver a lettering message to be delivered.

The present invention is to solve the above problems and an object of the present invention is to provide a lettering service method that attempts to access the call by simultaneously transmitting the caller and the caller's letter message written by the caller to implement the lettering service for each callee. have.

As a technical idea for achieving the object of the present invention described above, the present invention provides a first step of performing a lettering service registration in an information field in a communication system including a switchboard and a home location register using a mobile telephone or a landline telephone; A second step of attempting to make a call by writing a lettering message and a called party number together; A third step of checking whether registration is made at the caller side exchange and requesting lettering from the caller side home location register to the lettering service server; A fourth step of creating a final lettering message including lettering information consisting of a lettering character type, a lettering service activation tag, a lettering character length, and lettering in the lettering service server and transmitting the same to a called party's communication system; And a fifth step of transmitting the lettering to the called party in the called party communication system to display the lettering message.

In this case, the called party communication system of the fourth step may include: transmitting a reception request signal from the lettering service server to a called party home location register; Sending a lettering message and a reception request signal from the called party home location register to the called party exchange; Assigning a Temporary Local Directory Number (TLDN), which is a temporary identification number for routing a call from the called party exchange to the called party telephone, from the called party exchange to the called party home location register; Sending, at the called party's home location register, a result of the reception request to a calling exchange; And a call path is formed between the caller exchanger and the caller exchange period.

Further, in the third step, it is preferable to database the final lettering message written by the sender on the lettering service server.

In the second step, when the lettering message is not written, the lettering message may be set as a default value set by the lettering service server.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, the configuration and operation of the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

1 is a schematic system diagram for implementing a lettering service of the present invention. As shown in Fig. 1, a typical mobile communication network is a mobile telephone 1, 1 ', a base station 2, 2', a base station controller 3, 3 ', an exchange station, a home location register 5, 5'. It consists of, the lettering service server 6 is connected to it.

The mobile telephones 1 and 1 'need to be able to input a minimum of characters for performing a lettering service as a normal wireless terminal (cellular phone, PCS). The base station 2, 2 ′ plays a role of relaying signals communicated with and transmitted to the mobile phones 1, 1 ′ to the mobile phones 1, 1 ′. The base station controllers 3 and 3 'allow the mobile telephones 1 and 1' to connect through the base stations 2 and 2 'and manage the base stations 2 and 2'. The switch 4, 4 '(MSC) is connected to the base station controllers 3, 3' to perform call setup and release of the mobile phones 1, 1 ', and various functions related to call processing and additional services. It performs the operation and enables interworking with other networks. The home location registers 5, 5 '(HLR) are databases storing information, location information, additional service information, etc. of the subscribers of the mobile phones 1, 1', and the like. It interacts with and performs functions related to call processing and supplementary services and controls services.

The lettering service server 6 is between the caller side home location registers 5 and 5 'and the called party home location registers 5 and 5', if one side wants to perform the lettering service, a lettering message sent from the service requester. In addition to storing the message and delivers the message to the other party performs a function. In addition, when a lettering service is requested but there is no input lettering message, a lettering message set as a default (Default) is transmitted or a function of transmitting a text message finally transmitted by user setting is performed.

Here, the lettering message which is a method for performing the lettering service is only an example, and is not limited thereto and may take various forms including an avatar, a character, a special character, a symbol, and the like.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a lettering service method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

First, among the methods of processing the lettering service using the MAP protocol, which is a data transmission protocol between the switch 4, 4 '(MSC) and the home location registers 5, 5' (HLR), the called party's home location register 5 Only the method of transmitting a caller's lettering message when receiving a request with ') will be described.

As shown in FIG. 2, when the caller or the called party (indicated by the dashed line) wants to use the lettering service, the home location registers 5 and 5 'are connected to the home location registers 5 and 5' using their own mobile phones 1 and 1 '. Require use of lettering services (S1). Accordingly, the home location registers 5 and 5 'change the database field related to the lettering service to an active state in the database that stores the location information of the mobile phones 1 and 1' and the usage of the additional service, and then the lettering. The service server 6 requests the use of the lettering service (S2).

Lettering service server 6 performs the lettering service registration (S3) to update the database of the requestor. Subsequently, the result registered in the lettering service server 6 is transmitted to the requestor (S4 to S5).

After the above-mentioned lettering service registration process is completed, the caller writes the lettering message and the called party's telephone number in order to attempt to connect to the called party. In other words, “Hi. Enter Who I am ”and“ 01X-XXX-XXXX, and the caller attempts to call through the mobile phone (1).

Accordingly, the caller switch 4 transmits the caller information according to the call attempt to the caller home location register 5 (S6), and the caller home location register 5 extracts the MIN from the caller information and according to the extracted MIN. The caller profile is searched to see if the caller is a lettering service user (S7).

In the case of the lettering service user through the lettering service user confirmation whether or not the caller home location register (5) requests the lettering of the caller to the lettering service server (6) (S8). Lettering service server (6) checks its own database to determine whether the sender is a legitimate user (S9), if it turns out to be a legitimate user, the lettering service server (6) is a lettering message entered by the caller "Hi. In addition to saving "Who am I?" And write the final lettering message that includes the lettering character type and lettering service activation tag, lettering character length and lettering information consisting of lettering (S10).

Next, the lettering service server 6 transmits a reception request signal to the called party home location register 5 '(S11), and thus, the lettering message and the received request from the called party home location register 5' to the called party exchange 4 '. The signal is transmitted (S12). The called party exchange 4 'then uses the temporary local directory number (TLDN), which is a temporary identification number for routing the call from the called party's 4' to the called party's mobile phone 1 ', to the called party's home location register 5'. Assigning (S13), the called party home location register 5 'transmits the result of the reception request to the calling party exchange 4 (S14 to S15), whereby the call path between the calling party exchange 4 and the called party exchange 4' is transferred. Is formed (S16). Thereafter, the called party switch 4 'transmits the lettering to the called party's mobile phone 1' so that the lettering message is displayed on the mobile phone 1 '(S17). In other words, “Hi. Who am I? ”Is displayed.

Thereafter, the called party presses the call button of the mobile phone 1 'to make a call with the caller's mobile phone 1.

Meanwhile, “Hello. The lettering message “Who am I?” Will be stored in the database of the lettering service server (6), and “Hello” the lettering message that is sent according to your settings, that is, the setting that keeps the last lettering message at its default value. Who am I? ”

In addition, when a specific lettering message is not input according to the user setting, "hello" etc. set as the default value in the lettering service server 6 may be set as the lettering message. Of course, it is also possible to change the default value by providing a plurality of default values in the lettering service server 6. In this case, it may be more convenient because the caller only needs to enter the phone number of the called party.

On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the process of performing the lettering service between the mobile phone (1, 1 '), but between the landline phone and the mobile phone (1, 1'), can be performed between the landline phone and the landline phone letter service Is a well-known fact. In other words, it is necessary to provide a display device capable of displaying characters on a wired telephone.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and it will be apparent that many modifications are possible by those skilled in the art within the technical spirit of the present invention.

As described above, the lettering service method according to the present invention can easily correspond to the type of the called party by attempting to make a call connection by simultaneously transmitting the lettering message and the called party number created by the caller.
