For example, when the service request signal includes information for selecting an access device, at least one or more access devices are selected accordingly. When the service request signal does not include information for selecting an access device, the service request signal includes information about a default value or a setting value. At least one or more connection devices may be selected.

When the service device 300 which is waiting to provide a service (S401) receives a service request signal from the user communication device 100 (S403), the connection determination unit 310 of the service device 300 connects to the access network 200. The connection type of the user communication device 100 connected through the determination is determined (S405).

Hereinafter, a process of providing differentiated store information providing service to each user communication device by a geographic information differentiating service system according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1, 2, 5 and 7. Let's look at it in time series. In addition, in order to help the understanding of the present invention, the user communication device 100 is connected to the service device 300 through the access network 200 including LAN and WiBro or Wi-Fi, and the service device 300 is a specific article. To illustrate the process of providing a service that recommends stores that can be purchased.

First, the consumption log generator 350 of the service device 300 ′ generates a consumption log by diagnosing a consumption pattern from the card usage tendency information of the user who uses the user communication device 100, and the consumption log storage 360 ) Stores the consumption log generated in the consumption log generator 350.

When the user of the user communication device 100 inputs the store recommendation service selection signal through the user interface unit 110, the service requesting unit 120 of the user communication device 100 requests the store recommendation service according to the store recommendation service selection signal. The signal is generated and provided to the connection selector 130.

Then, the connection selector 130 of the user communication device 100 connects to the service device 300 'through the access network 200 and transmits a store recommendation service request signal. In this case, the connection selector 130 may be connected to any one of LAN, WiBro, or Wi-Fi among the first connection device 200-1 to the Nth connection device 200 -N included in the connection network 200. The device is selectively connected to connect to the service device 300. For example, when the store recommendation service request signal includes information for selecting an access device, the access device is selected based on this. When the store recommendation service request signal does not include information for selecting an access device, a default value or a set value is selected. The connection device can be selected according to the above.

When the service device 300 ′ waiting to provide a service receives a store recommendation service request signal from the user communication device 100 (S403), the connection determination unit 310 of the service device 300 ′ may access the access network 200. The connection type of the user communication device 100 connected through the operation is determined (S405). In this case, the connection determining unit 310 recognizes a connection device that the user communication device 100 is currently connected to among the first connection devices 200-1 to the Nth connection device 200 -N included in the connection network 200. It is possible to determine the connection type of any one of LAN, WCDMA, WiBro or Wi-Fi.

Next, the store information service provider 330 ′ of the service device 300 ′ stores the connection property information corresponding to the connection type of the user communication device 100 determined by the connection determination unit 310. In step S407, service reference information according to the extracted connection characteristic information is generated (S409). At this time, the connection characteristic information is classified LAN by wire, WCDMA, WiBro or Wi-Fi is classified as wireless, WCAMA is classified as medium service coverage among Wi-Fi, WiBro is classified as medium service coverage, and Wi-Fi is It can be classified as small service coverage.

Subsequently, the store information service provider 330 ′ of the service device 300 ′ differentiates the setting radius for each type of connection based on the service reference information previously generated in providing the store recommendation service requested by the user communication device 100.

For example, in the case of LAN, the relevant store is searched and recommended without restricting the distance search range. In the case of WCDMA, the range is set to the large range and the recommended store is searched. In the case of WiBro, It restricts the distance search range to medium and searches and recommends the store. In the case of Wi-Fi, the range can be searched and extracted by limiting the range search range to small.

In addition, when the connection type of the user communication apparatus 100 determined by the connection determination unit 310 is wireless, the service communication may be classified by service coverage size. For example, the user communication device 100 may be compared with a feature that supports handoff between cells such as WCDMA or WiBro and a feature that does not support handoff between APs such as Wi-Fi. The guarantee range of mobility is different. Therefore, the size of the service coverage can be differentiated by distinguishing the access network 200 when the WCDMA or WiBro and the Wi-Fi. In addition, when the access network 200 has a characteristic of supporting handoff such as WCDMA or WiBro, the coverage of the store information and the recommendation card information may be changed and provided according to the moving speed of the user communication apparatus 100, and user communication may be provided. Based on the moving speed of the device 100, store information and recommendation card information having coverage that can be moved within a predetermined time period may be provided.

Then, the service receiving unit 140 of the user communication device 100 receives the store recommendation service that the service device 300 'differentiates and provides according to the characteristics of the connection type.
