An object of the present invention is to provide mobile phone fee comparison service to netizens, Internet sites that provide mobile phone rate comparison service may increase the commercial value of many netizens induce access.

Currently, mobile operators include 011, 017 (SK Telecom), 016, 018 (KTF), and 019 (LG Telecom), which offer various plans. For example, in case of 011, there are regular fee, large fee, youth fee, TTL fee, and UTO fee.UTO fee includes time plans such as time, time plus, number, and number plus. Call rates and discount rates vary for 10 seconds.
Since there are various plans, it is very difficult for a mobile phone user to compare which plan of a mobile phone operator is advantageous to them, and thus there is a demand for such information.

An object of the present invention is to provide a service that can easily compare the rates when you subscribe to other plans based on the mobile phone call history of netizens.

The present invention is to compare the rates when you subscribe to each plan according to the call history of the netizens.
The rate comparison site implementing the present invention first allows the netizens to access the mobile carrier server to which they are currently subscribed and receive the netizens 'own call history to the netizens' own terminal computer. When a netizen enters a call log obtained from a mobile carrier server into a server of a site implementing the present invention, the server of the site calculates a mobile phone fee when using a mobile phone with such call log under each plan and sends it to the netizen's terminal computer. do.

If you can find out the recent call history of the netizen (the other party's phone number, call start time, call end time, etc.), the rate calculation method (10 seconds call rate, discount rate, etc.) of each plan is known and the same You can easily calculate the fare for the call.

[Table 1] is an example of such a call history, the call history of the mobile phone users subscribed to the number plus rate plan of the UTO rate plan of 011. For example, 011 is a service that provides subscribers with the call history of the last three months, and Table 1 is a record of two days.

When the call history (relative phone number, usage time, etc.) is known as described above, the server of the site according to the present invention can calculate a mobile phone fee according to each plan based on the information stored in the memory of the server for each plan. When netizens know the rates for each plan based on their call history, netizens can find out which mobile carrier is the best plan for them.

The rate comparison service provided by the site according to the present invention includes the following three steps:

■ first step: transmitting the netizen call history data received from the mobile carrier server from the netizen terminal computer to the rate comparison site server;

■ second step: the rate comparison site server calculates the mobile phone charges in each plan based on the information on each plan previously stored in the memory of the server, based on the transmitted call history data; And

■ Step 3: Transfer the mobile phone bill data calculated by the price comparison site server to the netizen's terminal computer.

Hereinafter, each step of the three steps will be described in detail.

<First step>

Netizens must first obtain call history data from the mobile carrier's server. Currently, mobile carriers provide call history if the user desires. Table 1 is an example of such call history.

In order to input the call history data obtained by netizens to the rate comparison site according to the present invention, it may be directly inputted to the terminal computer by typing one by one. It is preferable to receive the data file for transmission to the site according to the present invention.

If the service provider server does not provide the call history data in the form of such a data file, it may block the call history provided by the mobile company's Internet homepage and transmit the data file to the rate comparison site server according to the present invention. .
However, if a block copy of the given data in the form of [Table 1], the table is not copied but its contents are copied, and the data format is very irregular, which makes it very difficult to organize the data. However, if you press the 'View Source' in the menu of Internet Explorer and open the html document and block the html document and send it to the rate comparison site server according to the present invention, the format of the html document is constant for each mobile phone provider. It will be easy to organize that data on the server.

<Second step>

When the data of the call history is input to the site according to the present invention through the first step, each call according to the call pattern based on the information (basic rate, call rate for 10 seconds, discount rate, etc.) previously stored in the memory You can calculate the rate by the rate system.

By the way, as shown in Table 1, the call history provided by the mobile carrier may be provided by omitting some of the counterparts, and in this case, it is impossible to accurately calculate the fee for some plans. For example, assuming that the call plan for 016 would cost 15 won for 10 seconds and the call to another mobile carrier for 016 would cost 20 won for 10 seconds. If you don't know exactly whether the number is 016 or not, it's impossible to calculate your mobile phone bill based on your call pattern.

In this case, the netizens look at their call history, so most of the number of the other party is remembered.
If you don't remember your opponent's number or it's too cumbersome to enter it manually, you can do it statistically. For example, if there are 4 million 016 subscribers and 16 million other carriers, the probability that the relative number starts with 016 is 0.2 (that is, 4 million / 20 million), with a 10-second call rate. Is calculated as 15 * 0.2 + 20 * 0.8 = 19 won. In this statistical way, we can estimate approximate rates for each rate plan.

When the call history is input, if the other party's phone number is unknown, the basic option is to calculate the approximate call rate by statistical method, and some telephone numbers omitted if the user wants to correct the rate by correcting the correct number. It is desirable to be able to directly enter.
In addition to the other party's phone number, if some information for accurate call rate is unknown, the basic option is to calculate the rough call rate by statistical method, and the user needs to enter the correct information to calculate more accurate rate. It is desirable to be able to enter information directly.

<Third step>

After the mobile phone charges for each plan are calculated in two steps, the rate comparison site server transmits the rate comparison result data to the netizen's terminal computer for display on the netizen's terminal computer. It may be possible to display all the charges of each plan on the monitor, and if the contents are too large, it may be possible to display only a few of them with low mobile phone charges.

If the mobile phone user provides a service that can compare the rates of each plan according to the call pattern through these steps 1 to 3, the site providing such service increases the commercial value by the visit of many netizens. In particular, if the Internet site that sells things related to the mobile phone or sells the service related to the mobile phone to provide such a service, sales will increase significantly.

In the present invention, a mobile phone fee comparison service may be provided only to netizens who have subscribed to the Internet site.
If netizens have already registered, you will have less objection when you apply for the goods or services you sell on this site, and you will be able to use the information you filled out when you signed up. The process of applying for a purchase is also simplified. In other words, only netizens who have already registered as members can log in to the Internet site (this step should be in front of step 1, so it can be called "0 level"), and then receive the mobile phone price comparison service. Increase the commercial value of

According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a cell phone user with a rate comparison service that can compare the rates of each rate plan according to his call history.
