First, the calling mobile terminal 100 is connected to the message buffering server 300, which is in the form of any one of still image data, video data, HTML data, map data, icon image, emoticon image or a combination thereof. The packet data is registered (S101).

The packet data registered in the message buffering server 300 in step S101 is used as an example when the calling party selects packet data to be delivered to the called party during the video call connection. The packet data used in the above example can include not only packet data registered by the originating party, but also packet data arbitrarily registered by the operator.

As the video call is attempted, the message buffering server 300 requests the calling mobile terminal 100 to set data to be sent to the called mobile terminal 500 (S103).

Subsequently, the message buffering server 300 sets data to be transmitted to the called-party mobile terminal 500 based on the message transmitted from the calling-party mobile terminal 100 according to the selection of the calling user.

Here, in the setting of the data, the message buffering server 300 requests the sender mobile communication terminal 100 to set a message (including a text message), and then receives a message transmitted from the caller mobile communication terminal 100. Setting the message to be transmitted to the side (S105, S107) and the message buffering server 300 requests packet data setting from the calling mobile terminal 100, and then selects the selected signal transmitted from the calling mobile terminal 100. Therefore, the step (S109, S111) of setting the packet data as packet data to be transmitted to the called party is included.

At this time, it is also possible to process the packet data setting step as a priority according to the needs of the operator during the message setting step and the packet data setting step.

Thereafter, when the message buffering server 300 receives a response to the paging request from the called mobile terminal 500 (S113), the message buffering server 300 transmits the packet data among the previously stored data to the called mobile terminal 500 to temporarily store it. (S115, S117).

Here, the called-party mobile communication terminal 500 temporarily stores the packet data received from the message buffering server 300.

When a response to the video call connection request is transmitted by the called party to establish a video call connection between the calling mobile terminal 100 and the called mobile terminal 500 (S119), the message buffering server 300 is stored in advance. The message of the data is transmitted to the called-party mobile communication terminal 500 (S121).

Then, when the called party mobile terminal 500 receives the identification code transmitted from the calling mobile terminal 100, the packet data matching the identification code is extracted from the temporarily stored packet data and output on the screen of the terminal. (S123, S125).

Step S201 to step S217 shown in Figure 7 is a process of setting the data to be sent to the destination mobile terminal 500, the calling mobile terminal 100 in response to a request from the message buffering server 300 during the video call connection Since the process is the same as the process of steps S101 to S117 shown in FIG. 6, detailed description will be omitted.

When a response is not transmitted from the called party to the video call connection request from the calling party, the message buffering server 300 transmits a message set in advance to the calling mobile terminal 100 to the called mobile terminal 300. If the request to confirm whether or not to agree to transfer, and receives the consent response from the sender, and transmits the pre-stored message in the form of a short message through the short message server 410 to the called-party mobile communication terminal 500 ( S219-S225).

On the other hand, if a response to the video call connection request is not transmitted by the called party, the message buffering server 300 confirms whether or not to agree to forward the preset packet data to the calling party mobile terminal 100 to the called party. When receiving the consent response from the calling party, the prestored packet data is transmitted to the called-party mobile communication terminal 500 in the form of a multimedia message through the multimedia message server 430 (S227 to S233).

Here, after the message buffering server 300 transmits the packet data in the form of a multimedia message to the called-party mobile communication terminal 500, the called-party mobile communication terminal 500 transmits the packet data transmitted from the message buffering server 300. If received, it is output on the screen so that the user can check and delete the temporarily stored packet data (S235).

On the other hand, if the calling user does not agree to deliver the message, the message buffering server 300 deletes or stores the previously stored message according to the user's request (S237).

In addition, if the calling user does not agree to forward the packet data, the message buffering server 300 terminates all procedures.

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.
