Next, FIG. 3 is a sequence diagram illustrating a process for obtaining personal information using a specific keyword according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 3, a flow of data processing between components illustrated in FIG. 1 will be described.

When the requester inputs a keyword of a specific partner using the mobile communication terminal 101 and transmits it, the mobile communication terminal 101 requests information corresponding to the keyword from the mobile communication network 110 (300). For example, the requester can enter the license plate number by looking at the license plate of the specific party's car parked.

Here, the mobile communication terminal used by the requester for the convenience of understanding is referred to as the requestor 101, and the mobile communication terminal of the other party to which the requester wants to talk is designated as the specifier 102.

A diagram illustrating this is shown in FIG. 4. 4 shows an example in which the car number "3ga 6854" is input to the screen. Of course, since such an input screen example is illustrated for understanding, there may be various embodiments. For example, a name plate, an identification number, and a specific number may be used to represent a specific party as well as a vehicle license plate.

The mobile communication network 110 transmits the information request received from the mobile communication terminal 101 to the information providing server 120 (310). That is, the information providing server 120 inquires whether there is information corresponding to a keyword of a specific counterpart. As described above, the information providing server 120 has a database having personal information such as a car number, a name, a phone number, and the like.

The information providing server 120 performs a search according to a keyword of a specific partner and transmits the search result to the mobile communication network 110 (320). Therefore, it is desirable to avoid the leakage of personal information because the search results contain the corresponding information of a specific partner.

To this end, the mobile communication network 110 inquires whether or not the specific information 102 and the disclosure scope of the information (330). The form of inquiry can be a text message, a Wap message, or an e-mail. Therefore, these messages are composed of items that allow the selection of the corresponding information.

The mobile communication network 110 transmits a search result to the requestor 101 based on the response message transmitted from the specifier 102 (350). Of course, at this time, it is preferable to use the terminal number as a temporary number in order not to leak personal information of a specific party. A screen example illustrating this is shown in FIG. 5. That is, if the car number of the specific partner is "3ga 6854" (401) shown in Fig. 4, the temporary telephone number for identification is "000-xxxx-000" (501).

Therefore, it is possible to make a call connection with a specific partner by selecting a call button in the screen example shown in FIG. That is, when the requestor 101 requests a call connection attempt from the mobile communication network 110 (360), the mobile communication network 110 connects the call between the specific person 102 and the requestor 101 (370).

On the other hand, in one embodiment of the present invention is to receive a specific party's personal information (especially an identification number for a call) by using the keyword of the specific partner, alternatively, a method using a GPS (Global Positioning System) is also possible. .

That is, when the terminal user is driving on the road, the current location information of the terminal user is transmitted to the mobile communication network to acquire other terminal information of the owners within a certain radius of the terminal using GPS. This is because when there is a lane change or an emergency situation while driving, it is necessary to talk to a nearby car.

To this end, it is preferable that the terminals have a GPS processing unit capable of processing a GPS signal, the network configuration of which is shown in FIG.

Accordingly, the GPS server 620 may check the location information of the terminals 601a to 601n and transmit this information to the information providing server 120. Therefore, the information providing server 120 can provide the requested user with information about the terminals 601a to 601n in the location range 602. Of course, if only the numbers of the terminals 601a to 601n in the location range 602 are provided in the provided information, it is preferable to provide the vehicle number together because it is difficult to specify the other party. To this end, databases 121 and 621 having personal information in the GPS server 620 and the information providing server 120 are configured.

Therefore, a screen example showing a result message transmitted to the terminal requesting the information is shown in FIG. 7. In the example screen, the telephone number of the vehicle in a certain radius and the telephone number corresponding to it are displayed. For example, the vehicle number is "3ga 5864" and the phone number may be displayed as "000-xxx-000" to prevent personal information leakage.

In addition, the selection term 700 may be configured on the left side so as to be able to call the corresponding phone number. Of course, it is also possible to select the corresponding item with a block cursor that can be specified in general block units without any selection terms.
