The present invention relates to a call history management system and method, and more particularly, to store a call history when a call is received to a mobile communication terminal that has suspended a service, and to notify a caller when the pause state is released. A call history management system and method.

The mobile communication service subscriber may temporarily stop the mobile communication service due to personal circumstances such as the late payment of the communication fee, the overseas travel, the loss of the terminal, and the like. When the service is temporarily suspended, the service using the suspended mobile communication terminal is not available, and voice calls and text messages received by the mobile communication terminal are not received.

As such, when the mobile communication service is suspended after voluntary or involuntary reasons, the mobile communication terminal user may not know details of the call made while the service is suspended.

In addition, the caller who attempts to call the paused mobile communication terminal attempts to make a meaningless call because the other party does not know when to resume the service, and thus, unnecessary time is consumed and such a situation is repeated. There are problems such as increased customer complaints.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned disadvantages and problems, and when the call is attempted to the mobile communication terminal is paused, the calling information is stored, and the service is sent to the calling party when the called terminal resumes service. There is a technical challenge to improving the quality of service by notifying that it has been resumed.

Another technical problem of the present invention is to provide a previously stored call history as a mobile communication terminal user who resumes service after a pause requests a call history to the user in the pause state.

The incoming call history management system according to an embodiment of the present invention for achieving the above-described technical problem is connected to the mobile communication terminal through a mobile communication network including a home location register, the incoming call history is connected to the wire communication terminal through a wired communication network A subscriber state management unit which receives a mobile communication terminal number changed to a pause state from the home location register and stores it in a database, and receives a fact of releasing pause of the mobile communication terminal from a home location register to update the database. ; A reception history management unit configured to receive, store, and manage a reception history including an origination terminal number that attempts to originate the mobile communication terminal in the pause state from the home location register; And as the mobile communication terminal in the pause state releases the pause and resumes service, the communication terminal of the caller who attempts to make a call to the mobile communication terminal during the pause period with reference to the incoming call history. And a message generator for generating and transmitting a message informing that the service has been resumed.

In addition, the incoming call history management method of the present invention is a call history management method to the mobile communication terminal in the incoming call history management system connected to the wired or wireless communication network, the mobile phone terminal user pauses from the home location register as the service pauses A first step of receiving and storing a mobile communication terminal number registered as a state and a pause state; A second step of, when the communication terminal attempts to make a call, the calling exchange sends the calling terminal number and the called terminal number to the home location register to request routing information to the called side exchange; A third step of inquiring, by the home location register, of an additional service usage state of the called terminal by referring to the called terminal number; A fourth step of transmitting the calling information including the called terminal number and calling terminal number to the called history management system when it is determined that the called terminal is in a pause state as a result of the inquiry in the third step; ; And a fifth step of storing the incoming history including the calling terminal number for each of the mobile communication terminal numbers in which the called history management system is in a pause state.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a diagram illustrating a communication network to which a call history management system according to the present invention is applied.

As shown, the incoming call history management system 100 of the present invention, through the gateway 60, the base station (BTS; 20, 22), the base station controller (BSC; 30, 32), the exchange (MSC; 40, 42), Access to mobile communication terminals 10 and 12 via a mobile communication network including short service center (SMSC) 50, home location register (HLR) 70 and customer oriented information system (COIS) 80 do. In addition, the incoming call history management system 100 is connected to the wired communication terminal 14 through the gateway 60 via a wired communication network 90 such as the Internet.

Here, the HLR 70 is a database for managing mobile communication terminal information, additional service information, location information, etc. of the mobile communication service subscriber, and the COIS 80 is customer-centric information that is being designed, built, and operated by the mobile communication network operator. It is a comprehensive information system that manages customer management, billing, billing, and payment.

When the user of the mobile communication terminal 10, 12 pauses the service, it is registered in the COIS 80 and the HLR 70, and the HLR 70 manages the user's mobile communication terminal in the origination and incoming call suppression state. do.

In this state, when a call is attempted to the mobile communication terminals 10 and 12 that are suspended, the HLR 70 receives the calling terminal number from the calling exchange and transmits the calling terminal number to the called history management system 100, and the incoming call history. The management system 100 stores the incoming call history for each of the suspended terminal 10 and 12 numbers. Here, the incoming call history includes the calling terminal number and the calling time, and may further include message reception information (mobile communication terminal number, email address, etc.).

On the other hand, when the mobile communication terminals 10 and 12 which are suspended resume service again, the subscriber information stored in the COIS 80 and the HLR 70 is changed, and the HLR 70 is placed in the call-in and call-forbidden state. While the state of the mobile communication terminal that has been managed is released, the reception history management system 100 notifies that the pause is released together with the corresponding mobile communication terminal number.

The incoming call history management system 100 notified that the pause has been released extracts message reception information for notifying that the pause has been released by referring to the stored call history stored according to the corresponding mobile communication terminal number. In this case, if the calling terminal is a mobile terminal, the message receiving information may be a calling terminal number. If the calling terminal is not a mobile terminal, message receiving information such as another mobile terminal number and an e-mail address, which are separately stored, is extracted. do.

The incoming history management system 100 generates a message indicating that the service of the mobile communication terminal is resumed, and transmits the message with reference to the extracted message reception information.

On the other hand, the user of the mobile communication terminal 10, 12, which is being paused, can inquire the incoming call history to himself or herself after canceling the pause state or the pause. That is, as the user connected to the incoming call history management system 100 using the mobile communication terminals 10 and 12 or the wired communication terminal 14 transmits the mobile communication terminal number to be inquired, the incoming call history management system 100 ) Is to extract and provide the incoming call history stored for each mobile communication terminal number.

2 is a detailed block diagram of the incoming call history management system shown in FIG.

As shown, the incoming call history management system 100 according to the present invention includes a control unit 110, subscriber status management unit 120, incoming call history management unit 130, message generating unit 140, wired and wireless for controlling the overall operation Communication network interface 150 and database 160 for enabling communication.

The subscriber state management unit 120 receives the mobile communication terminal number changed to the pause state from the HLR 70 and stores it in the database 160. When the mobile communication terminal in the pause state resumes the service, the subscriber state management unit 120 receives the HLR (HLR). Update from the database.

The reception history management unit 130 receives the reception history including the calling terminal number that attempted to make a call from the HLR 70 to the mobile communication terminal in the paused state and stores the incoming call history in the database 160. The mobile communication terminal is in the paused state. The database 160 is updated every time an origination attempt is made. Here, the incoming call history management unit 130 may further receive and store, in addition to the calling terminal number, the calling time and the message reception information (mobile communication terminal number, email address, etc.) received by the HLR 70 from the calling terminal. .

In addition, the incoming call history management unit 130 is connected to the incoming call history management system 100 through the wired or wireless Internet to the mobile communication terminal that is in a paused state or the mobile communication terminal which has been suspended. In order to query the incoming call attempt history, the database 160 is searched according to the user's mobile communication terminal number to provide the incoming call history during the pause period. At this time, it is also possible to query and provide the incoming call history within a specified period at the request of the user.

The message generating unit 140 refers to the state information of the mobile communication terminal managed by the subscriber state management unit 120, and as the mobile communication terminal releases the pause and resumes the service, the message generation unit 140 stores the incoming history stored in the database 160. By referring to the caller attempting to make a call to the mobile communication terminal during the pause period, the user of the mobile communication terminal user's service is resumed. At this time, when the calling terminal is a mobile communication terminal, the short message service is used to notify the resumption of service. On the other hand, when the originating terminal is not the mobile communication terminal, it is checked whether the message reception information exists in the incoming history, and if the message reception information exists, the service reception is notified with reference to the reception information.

Here, the message generator 140 may inquire all the incoming histories during the pause period to generate and transmit a message, but may also generate and transmit the messages by inquiring the incoming history for a given period.

3 is a flowchart illustrating a call history management method according to the present invention.

When the user of the mobile communication terminal pauses the service, it is registered in the COIS (S101), and the COIS transmits to the HLR that the mobile communication terminal is in a suspended state (S103), and the HLR receives and sends the mobile communication terminal. Manage in a prohibited state. In addition, the HLR transmits the mobile communication terminal number changed into the pause state to the incoming history management system (S105), so that the subscriber state management unit 120 of the incoming history management system stores the mobile communication terminal in the pause state. .

As such, when the mobile communication terminal is registered in the pause state, when an origination is attempted from the wired communication terminal or the mobile communication terminal (S201), the originating MSC transmits the originating and terminating terminal number to the HLR to the destination side exchange. Request routing information to (S203).

Accordingly, the HLR refers to the called terminal number received from the calling MSC, inquires the additional service usage state of the called terminal (S205), and when it is determined that the called terminal is in a pause state, the call history management. Transmitting information including the called terminal number and the calling terminal number to the system (S207), the incoming history management unit 130 of the incoming history management system is called history including the calling terminal number for each mobile terminal number in the pause state This is stored in the database 160 (S209). Here, the incoming call history may further include a calling time in addition to the calling terminal number.

On the other hand, when the called terminal is confirmed to be in a suspended state in step S205, the HLR transmits a reason for not being called to the calling MSC (S211), and the calling MSC notifies the call to the calling terminal that it is impossible (S213). Thereafter, although not shown, it is also possible that the HLR collects message reception information from the originating terminal through the MSC. In this case, the HLR transmits the message reception information to the terminating history management system so that the terminating history managing unit 130 receives the terminating history. It is also possible to include the message reception information in the database 160 to store it.

Then, as the service of the mobile terminal in the paused state is resumed, the COIS changes the subscriber information (S301), and informs this to the HLR (S303), and then the HLR with the mobile terminal number to the call history management system. Notify that the pause has been released (S305).

Accordingly, the message generation unit 140 of the incoming call history management system extracts the pre-stored incoming call history (S307), generates a message for notifying that the service is resumed, and transmits the message through the SMSC (S309 and S311). In this case, when the calling terminal included in the incoming history is a mobile communication terminal, it is preferable to notify the calling mobile communication terminal that the service has been resumed through a text message. If the originating terminal is not the mobile communication terminal and the reception history includes the message reception information, the reception history management system transmits the message to a predetermined destination by referring to the message reception information. The message generator 140 may also generate and transmit a message by referring to the incoming history for a given period of the incoming history.

In addition, after step S209, the mobile communication terminal user registered in the pause state or the mobile communication terminal user who releases the pause state may access the incoming call history management system and inquire the call history to the user as a whole or for each period. .

As such, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without changing the technical spirit or essential features thereof. Therefore, the above-described embodiments are to be understood as illustrative in all respects and not as restrictive. The scope of the present invention is shown by the following claims rather than the detailed description, and all changes or modifications derived from the meaning and scope of the claims and their equivalents should be construed as being included in the scope of the present invention. do.

According to the present invention, when an attempt is made to send a mobile communication terminal that is in a paused state, the calling information is stored, and when the pause state is released, the caller receives a call to the mobile communication terminal by notifying that the service is resumed. This possibility can be easily recognized and it is possible to avoid attempting meaningless calling.

In addition, by providing the called party with the incoming call history in the paused state, the called party can recognize the important call without missing, thereby improving the quality of service.
