And a control method thereof.

In general, wireless data communication refers to a communication function of wirelessly transmitting and receiving various data such as letters, numbers, and images through a base station system using a portable terminal capable of wireless transmission and reception. For example, it is a mobile communication system that exchanges or retrieves data in both directions while moving by using various terminals such as a cellular phone, a portable computer, a facsimile, and a credit card inquiry machine. Especially in the early 1980s, mobile phones divided the service area into hexagonal cells of several km to several ten kilometers in diameter in North America, and then repeatedly used the same frequency channel in geographically separated cells. As a result, cellular phones that implement radio channel switching between cells have grown rapidly for the first time.

Then, referring to the conventional mobile communication system as described above with reference to Figure 1, the base station (71, 72) for wirelessly processing function signals, for example, call signals or SMS messages transmitted from a plurality of terminals 70, and MSC (73) for controlling the transmission function of the call signal or SMS message input via the base station (71, 72), and applications requested by the terminal in connection with the MSC (73) (Wap, mms, java, email, syncML etc), which includes an application server 74 for processing an example application.

On the other hand, referring to the operation of the conventional mobile communication terminal as described above, first, when the user of the terminal 70 opens the folder 75 and presses the telephone number signal through the keypad 76, the telephone number signal is the LCD panel ( At the same time as displayed on 77, the wireless signal processing by the terminal 70 is transmitted to the base station 71. The base station 71 transmits the call signal of the input terminal 70 to the MSC 73. Then, the MSC 73 analyzes the input call signal data to recognize the destination telephone number and transmits the call signal to the base station 72 of the corresponding destination. Therefore, the destination base station 72 relays the transmitted call signal and connects the call to the counterpart terminal 78. At this time, when the call is formed by the above process, the terminal 70 executes a normal call with the counterpart terminal 78.

In this process, when the user of the terminal 70 wants to access any one of applications (Wap, mms, java, email, syncML etc) through the keypad 75, for example, the Wap type application server 74. The terminal 70 transmits the access information (profile: server address, ID, password, etc.) that can be connected to the corresponding application server 74 to the corresponding application server 74 through the keypad 76. At this time, when the connection of the application server 74 is authenticated, information of the corresponding Wap method is used.

Here, if the user of the terminal does not know the profile information of the corresponding application server, attempts to connect to the Internet search or find out the profile information to the service provider.

However, in the conventional mobile communication terminal as described above, when the profile of the application is set to use the application, the user of the terminal must input the profile of the application through the keypad. Accordingly, the usability of the terminal is considerably deteriorated. If you do not know the profile information of the application in order to obtain the profile information of the application, the user has to find the profile information because it is very difficult to find or call the service provider by performing an Internet search.

Accordingly, the present invention has been invented to solve the above problems, and since the terminal user does not have to make efforts to input or know profile information in order to access a server for various applications, the convenience of using the terminal is significantly improved accordingly. It is an object of the present invention to provide a mobile communication terminal having a profile automatic receiving function and a control method thereof.
