The apparatus 100 for providing a personal broadcast service according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a communication interface 110, a region information extractor 120, a broadcast information collector 130, a region-specific personal broadcast provider 140, and a similarity detector. 150, the region-specific additional information providing unit 160, the collection DB 170, and the map DB 180.

The communication interface 110 interfaces data communication between a plurality of personal broadcast terminals through a communication network. Here, the communication network is a mobile communication network of various generations, such as 2G, 3G, 4G, WiBro, WiMax, LTE, or local area networks such as WLAN, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, Alternatively, a near or near communication network such as RFID or near field communication (NFC) may be used.

In particular, the communication interface 110 may receive a connection request from a plurality of personal broadcast terminals, transmit and receive data for a personal broadcast, and receive information about a user pattern for each user from the plurality of personal broadcast terminals.

The local information extracting unit 120 extracts local information about personal radio broadcasts transmitted from a plurality of personal broadcasting terminals and collects the local information in the collection DB 170. The area information may be obtained using a location based service (LBS), a GPS, a satellite, a base station, or the like. In particular, when the GPS module is included in the personal broadcasting terminal, location information may be obtained through prior agreement with each personal broadcasting terminal. Alternatively, when a plurality of personal broadcasting terminals establish a personal radio broadcast, the personal broadcasting terminal may acquire the information using local information registered by the user.

In this case, the broadcast information collecting unit 130 may store and manage the extracted broadcast information in the collecting DB 170 by matching the extracted area information with the local information extracting unit 120.

DJ information includes personal information about the gender, age, preferences, and disposition of the DJ. The selection list may include a list of music previously selected and sent by the DJ, a list of recommended music, or a list of music downloaded from other personal broadcast lists. It may include.

The similarity detection unit 150 receives a user pattern for each user and detects a similarity between the user pattern and the broadcast information of the personal broadcast list collected in the collection DB 170. Here, the user pattern for each user includes personal information about a user's gender, age, preference, and inclination, and selection list information selected by the user, and is input in real time or periodically from each user's terminal. The terminal of the user may be a personal broadcast terminal.

The similarity detection unit 150 determines the degree of similarity between each user by matching user pattern and broadcast information. The higher the similarity between the user pattern and the broadcasting information per user, the higher the similarity, and the lower the similarity. have.

In this case, the similarity detection unit 150 may determine the similarity by applying different weights to the personal information and the music selection list information included in the user pattern for each user. For example, in the personal information, weights of preferences or preferences are set higher than the user's gender and age, and in the case of the selection list information, the weighting list information that is selected in relation to the weather is further weighted according to the current weather of the region. In addition, the similarity can be determined differentially.

The similarity can usually be displayed numerically, or can be displayed using level units, bar graphs, etc., which are divided into upper and lower weights.

For example, if the user pattern for each user is a 'man in his 20s' and likes 'rock', the similarity detection unit 150 if the DJ information is a man in his 20s and there is a rock type selection list. Its high similarity is detected. In addition, if the weight is applied to the information type of the rock type more than the male in the 20s, if there is a music type of the rock type regardless of the DJ information, the similarity with the corresponding personal broadcasting is high. Can be detected.

The region-specific additional information providing unit 160 provides additional information such as weather, temperature, and current time of each region based on the region information.

If there is a request for a region-based personal broadcasting service from the user's terminal (or personal broadcasting terminal), the regional personal broadcasting provider 140 provides a map page including geographic information to the user's terminal (or personal broadcasting terminal). The map page is stored in the map DB 180.

The similarity detection unit 150 requests the similarity detection unit 150 to determine the similarity level, receives the similarity information detected from the similarity detection unit 150, and extracts the extracted personal broadcast list and the similarity information from the user's terminal (or personal broadcasting terminal). To send). When transmitting, it transmits along with the geographic information previously stored in the map DB 180 so that the personal broadcast list and the similarity information can be displayed together on the map.

In addition, the regional personal broadcast providing unit 140 may provide additional information (weather, temperature, time, etc.) of each region to the user terminal in association with the regional additional information providing unit 160. In this case, the user terminal may display a personal broadcast list, similarity information, and additional information corresponding to each region on a map so that the user broadcast list may be selected through the additional information.

In addition, the individual broadcasting provider 140 for each region may transmit additional information of each region to the similarity detector 150 to provide additional weights according to the additional information to determine the similarity.

In addition, the region-specific personal broadcast providing unit 140 may limit the similarity threshold, and transmit only to a target of the similarity detected by the similarity detection unit 150 to the user terminal. For example, if a total of 10 personal broadcast lists extracted in a specific region are extracted but there are 6 personal broadcasts having a similarity of 50% or more, only 6 personal broadcast lists having a similarity of 50% or more may be provided.

In this case, when an enlargement request for a specific region is input from the user through the communication interface 110, the regional personal broadcasting provider 140 enlarges a map page based on geographic information (a map in which the specific region is enlarged and displayed in detail). And transmits the personal broadcast list and the similarity information corresponding to the detailed region. In addition, the existing personal broadcast list may be delivered as it is, or additionally, data may be supplemented and delivered. That is, the number of personal broadcast lists to be displayed on one screen may be set, and when the number of personal broadcast lists is less than the set reference number, the threshold of similarity may be expanded step by step to provide a detailed personal broadcast list.

For example, although the threshold of similarity was initially limited to about 50%, the personal broadcast list was also displayed in detail as the detailed personal broadcast list corresponding to the threshold of 40% was expanded by changing the threshold to 40% by expanding the display. can do. In addition, as a complementary method to the number of personal broadcast lists, if the threshold value is changed to 40% but does not satisfy a predetermined number or more, the threshold value may be extended to 30% again to provide a list that satisfies the number condition. .

In addition, when providing a personal broadcast list to a user's terminal, the region-specific personal broadcast providing unit 140 provides a personal broadcast list in the form of an icon that can be selected, respectively, and when the personal broadcast desired by the user is selected from the personal broadcast list, the selected personal broadcast is selected. It may provide a detailed screen of or can be provided to enable direct access to the selected personal broadcast.

Therefore, according to the apparatus for providing a personal broadcast service according to an embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to share music according to various regions or countries, and in particular, to select a personal broadcast of another user having characteristics similar to the one based on the region, In spite of the high similarity with user's pattern, it provides various cultural experiences by indirectly experiencing regional differences.
