3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for notifying change of a phone number in a wireless communication system according to the present invention.

First, in order to receive the telephone number change notification service, the wireless communication terminal must be registered with the telephone number change notification service (301). Since this service registration process is a known technology, it will not be described in detail any further.

Thereafter, a call connection request with a wireless communication terminal registered in the telephone number change notification service is received from an arbitrary terminal (302). That is, a call connection request with the wireless communication terminal is received at the telephone number before the change of the wireless communication terminal registered in the phone number change notification service.
Then, the wireless communication system requests confirmation of whether the telephone number of the terminal requesting the call connection is stored to the wireless communication terminal to receive the call (303).

Thereafter, receiving confirmation information from the wireless communication terminal to receive the call (304), and checks whether the phone number of the terminal requesting the call is stored (305). As a result of the check 305, if the phone number of the terminal requesting the call is stored, the call is connected to the requested phone number without transmitting a guide message (306). By doing so, a call is made between the terminal requesting the call and the terminal receiving the call.

At this time, the phone number of the terminal requesting the call is stored in the wireless communication terminal that will receive the call, which means that the person requesting the call and the person receiving the call know each other. In this case, the call is immediately connected without sending a separate guide message.

On the other hand, if the confirmation result 305, the phone number of the terminal requesting the call is not stored in the wireless communication terminal to receive the call, there may be two cases, one of which is known to each other only wireless communication to receive the call There may be a case where the phone number is not stored in the terminal and it is unknown. In this case, the call requester is transmitted to the terminal requesting the call to give the call requester a choice (307, 308). That is, as mentioned in the above example, it is possible to select whether to accept the current call connection request or call or call the newly changed phone number.

In other words, if the telephone number of the terminal requesting the call is stored in the wireless communication terminal to receive the call, the current call connection request is accepted without transmitting the guide message, and the call is connected. The call requester is given a choice, and then the call is connected according to the call requestor's choice.

That is, if the call requester selects the call connection to the requested telephone number, the call is connected to the telephone number (306). If the call requester selects the call connection to the changed telephone number, the call requester connects the call to the changed telephone number. A call is made between a wireless communication terminal to receive a call and a call (309).

By doing so, it is possible to provide a telephone number change notification service even if the telephone number used before the change is being used by another person.

The present invention can be applied to a wired communication system and a wired terminal as well as a wireless communication system to provide a phone number change notification service.
