The present invention relates to a communication method using a wired / wireless integrated instant messaging service, and more particularly, user status information of a terminal (for example, a wireless communication terminal) to an instant messaging service server (for example, "in a call", "callable"). ") Is registered and provided to the other party's terminal (the other party registered on the messenger), and after the other party's call is terminated automatically as the other party wants to make a call, Wired / Wireless to communicate with the other party more conveniently and efficiently by performing a call connection function or by automatically executing a communication function (e.g. sending a message of instant messenger) other than a call (voice / video call) function. The present invention relates to a communication method using an integrated instant messaging service.
In the present invention, a wireless communication terminal is an individual such as a mobile communication terminal, a personal mobile communication terminal (PCS), a personal digital terminal (PDA), a PDA phone, a smart phone, a next generation mobile communication terminal (IMT-2000), a wireless LAN terminal, and the like. It refers to a terminal that can carry and communicate wirelessly.
An instant messaging service is a communication service that allows an instant message to be sent or received in real time with a person registered in a contact list (hereinafter referred to as a buddy list) via wired / wireless internet. The instant messaging service makes it possible to directly check the other party's status information (for example, "away", "on call") on the buddy list, so as to easily recognize the other party's on / offline status (exactly, messenger connection). There is an advantage to doing this. That is, when a user who subscribes to an instant messaging service registers a messenger ID and a wired / wireless phone number (for example, a telephone number for a wireless communication terminal) with an instant messaging service server, the instant messaging service server may determine the user's identity. The personal information and the status information of the counterpart registered in the buddy list are provided to each user in real time so that various information about the counterpart can be easily grasped. Here, unlike the instant message sending / receiving (aka, chat) function of the instant messaging service, it is not possible to check whether the other party has received the message.
Meanwhile, the most common call service among various communication services provided today has gradually evolved from a wired call function using an initial public switched telephone network (PSTN), as well as the wired call function, an internet phone using the Internet, a wireless call using a wireless communication. Functions are used together.
In particular, as a technology to replace the existing high-performance, high-cost wired telephone function, Internet telephones that are inexpensive and can simultaneously use data communication have been in the spotlight. Internet phone, which can also be defined as VoIP (Voice over IP), uses wired / wireless Internet using various terminals such as wireless communication terminals (eg, Nespot swing phones), personal computers, laptops, etc. By transmitting / receiving a signal, a voice / video call function is provided to a user.
Here, the wireless communication terminal may provide a wireless call function using a code division multiple access (CDMA) as well as an internet phone. Looking at the Internet phone and wireless call providing function in a wireless communication terminal in more detail as follows.
First, referring to the Internet telephony function using the Internet, after accessing the Internet using a wireless LAN module embedded in a wireless communication terminal, the user may make a call with the other party using a call connection function provided by the Internet telephony service server. In the wireless call function using wireless communication, a wireless communication module (for example, a CDMA module) is used to connect to a wireless communication network including a base station (BTS) and a switch (MSC), and then transmit / receive a signal with a counterpart terminal. You can talk by receiving it. As described above, today's wireless communication terminals can communicate with each other by mutually switching (swinging) each other through the internet phone call through the Internet connection and the wireless call function through the wireless communication network. .
However, since the call function (Internet call and wireless call function) according to the prior art does not have a way to check whether the current state of the other party that wants to make a voice / video call, that is, whether the call is available or not, the call function may fail. In some cases (for example, if the other party is already talking to someone), it is inconvenient to take other measures besides the call function, such as retrying or sending a message (for example, a short message).
That is, since the status information of the other party cannot be provided in real time, there is a problem in that it wastes time and material resources due to a call connection attempt.
Accordingly, if the call function (Internet call and wireless call function) is implemented in the other party's state information providing function currently provided in the instant messaging service, it is expected to provide a more convenient and efficient call function.
The present invention has been proposed to meet the above expectations, and provides user status information (eg, "in a call", "callable") of a terminal (for example, a wireless communication terminal) to an instant messaging service server that can be connected via wired or wireless. A communication method using a wired / wireless integrated instant messaging service for registering and providing to a counterpart on a messenger and acquiring status information of a counterpart desired to call in real time, so as to recognize the status of the counterpart desired to connect. The purpose is to provide.
In addition, according to the present invention, after confirming that the state of the other party who wants to connect the call is difficult to call (for example, "calling"), the call connection function is automatically performed after the call of the other party or other communication function (for example, Another method is to provide a communication method using a wired / wireless integrated instant messaging service for automatically executing a message of an instant messenger so as to communicate with a counterpart more conveniently and efficiently.
In addition, the present invention can receive an acknowledgment signal (ACK signal for a sent message) for the "note" sent by the instant messaging service, as the other party (recipient) who wants to connect the call is difficult to call. It is another object of the present invention to provide a communication method using a wired / wireless integrated instant messaging service to ensure the reliability of the instant messaging service by allowing the sender to check whether the other party (recipient) is received.
Further objects and advantages of the present invention can be understood by the following description, and will be more clearly understood by the embodiments of the present invention.
