The location tracking signal transmitting unit transmits location tracking signals of various objects related to a game to be relayed by the location tracking broadcasting system to supply location tracking data of the object to the relay broadcasting control unit 300.

The relay broadcasting control unit 300 receives various data necessary for the operation of the position tracking relay broadcasting system, that is, the position tracking data of the object received through the position tracking signal transmitter and the position tracking relay unit 200 and the audience terminal 400. The spectator data is processed into various pictures, texts, and voice signals necessary for watching and playing the game, and the computed data is transmitted to the spectator terminal 400.

The audience terminal 400 includes a receiver for receiving pictures, texts, and voice data owned by each audience participating in the location tracking broadcast, and an output unit such as an LCD or a speaker for outputting the received data as pictures, texts, and voices. And an input unit for inputting the audience data, and a transmitting unit for transmitting the input audience data.

The relay broadcast unit 500 is installed at a position where there is no obstacle between all audiences in the stadium, and the relay between the broadcast broadcast control unit 300 and the relay broadcast unit 500 uses wired communication, and the terminal 400 and the relay are relayed. The location relay between the broadcasting units 500 uses wireless communication.

An external communication system such as a communication company synthesizes a voice signal of an announcer's audible frequency band processed by a program of the broadcast broadcasting control unit 300 or its own program and a data signal of an asymmetric frequency band for position tracking data. The synthesized data is relayed and queried to the over-the-counter terminal, and the audience data of the responding terminal is transmitted to the external communication system 600.

However, in the prior art as described above, in order for the audience to view the game information, a broadcast system for collecting and relaying game information must be installed in the stadium, thereby increasing the cost of providing the service and incurring additional costs for maintenance. There is a problem.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and has an object of the present invention to provide a sports information service method of a mobile communication terminal to provide a service for providing game information in a base station jurisdiction of a stadium. .

The present invention for achieving the above object, the step of notifying the opening of the game to the base station that manages the stadium in accordance with the game information of the stadium in the sports information server; Transmitting, by the base station, a base ID of a system parameter to a predetermined value or more; When the base ID is determined to be equal to or greater than a predetermined value by the mobile communication terminal entering the area controlled by the base station, registering the game zone and accessing the sports information server through the wireless Internet to view game information held at the stadium. It features.

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

2 is an exemplary view showing a communication environment of a sports information service area according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown therein, a base station 20 that manages a stadium; A plurality of mobile communication terminals 61 to 64 which perform wireless communication with the base station 20 in an area controlled by the base station 20; It includes a sports information server 10 for providing information about the game held in the stadium through the base station 20.

In the present invention, the switch 40 manages a communication channel between terminals while managing mobile communication terminals belonging to each cell, and the base station controller 30 manages a plurality of base stations 20.

The base station 20 manages a unique area, and the base station shown in FIG. 2 covers a specific stadium belonging to the jurisdiction 50 and waits for a call with a mobile communication terminal of an audience watching a game taking place in the stadium. Maintain state.

The sports information server 10 communicates with the base station 20 that manages the stadium, and constructs a database of various types of information about a game currently held in the stadium and provides the mobile communication terminal belonging to the base station 20.

3 is a flowchart illustrating a sport information service method of a mobile communication terminal according to the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 3, the present invention includes checking a base ID of a system parameter and requesting a game zone registration to a sports information server through a base station to be authenticated when the base ID of the system parameter is greater than or equal to a predetermined value; Receiving the game breaking short message and outputting it to a display window when the game zone registration is completed; When the user checks the game breaking short message and accesses the game zone site of the wireless Internet, the user may receive and display game information held at the stadium.

Assume that a user carrying a mobile communication terminal visits a stadium for watching a baseball game.

The sports information server 10 which cooperates with the base station 20 which manages the stadium informs the base station 20 that the baseball game is open, for example. At this time, the sports information server 10 collects a variety of information on the current game in the stadium to build a database, and operates a site called the game zone of the wireless Internet.
When the base station 20 having jurisdiction over the playing field is notified from the sports information server 10 that a baseball game is held, the base station 20 transmits the base ID of the system parameter to a value of 32768 (2 ^ 15) or more. The mobile communication terminal checks the received base ID value, and if the corresponding base ID value is 32768 or less, recognizes it as a normal call signal and performs a call operation.
On the other hand, if the received base ID value is 32768 or more, the mobile communication terminal recognizes that it has entered the game zone and attempts to register the game zone with the base station. At this time, the game zone registration is performed by receiving an ACK signal which is a registration completion signal of the base station in response to the game zone registration request of the mobile communication terminal.

delete

When the mobile communication terminal is registered in the game zone, the sports information server may determine whether there is a mobile communication terminal accessing the game zone site. If it is determined that at least one mobile communication terminal accesses the game zone site, the sports information server 10 determines the current connection location of the terminal and preferentially provides game information held at a stadium belonging to an area where the terminal is located. .

Therefore, since the mobile communication terminal receives the game information by accessing the sports information server linked with the base station when accessing the game zone site, a fast information reception rate can be obtained, and the load of the entire sports information service system is distributed to each sports information server. You can.

On the other hand, when the game zone registration is completed by receiving authentication from the base station, the mobile communication terminal can basically receive the breaking news short message. The breaking news short message contains game information held at a stadium in an area to which the mobile communication terminal belongs. If the user receives the game breaking short message while passing around the stadium, the user can check this and visit the stadium to watch the game if desired.

When the user accesses the wireless Internet and clicks a game zone, the mobile communication terminal searches for game information stored in a sports information server linked to a base station. For example, when a baseball game is held at a stadium, the sports information server provides baseball information such as a player profile, team ranking, batting average, batting order, home run ranking, and ERA ranking related to baseball.

As described in detail above, the present invention provides a sports information service to a user who carries a mobile communication terminal and visits a stadium for watching a game, so that various kinds of game information can be quickly confirmed.
