Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a communication terminal for generating minutes data based on instant messaging data,

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a communication terminal and a control method thereof, and more particularly, to a communication terminal for generating minutes data based on instant messaging data and a control method thereof.

IM, that is, instant messaging or instant messenger communication means communication that enables communication with the other party via text in real time.

For example, Microsoft's Windows Live Messenger (msn Messenger) and Nate's Nate On Messenger (MSN Messenger) allow instant messaging communications.

In this instant messaging communication, a plurality of people can simultaneously connect and communicate with each other by text, and each user can designate his / her own name so that the corresponding name is displayed on the other terminal when mutual conversation (i.e., text communication) is performed.

That is, in an instant messaging communication, the nickname is easily changeable by each user, and changes his or her nickname from time to time according to mood or conversation partner.

Accordingly, each communication terminal that performs instant messaging communication displays the other party's name, that is, the other party's ID, which entered the corresponding conversation contents in front of the conversation contents. Of course, each user can separately store the conversation contents via the real time character.

There has been a demand for using contents of the instant messaging communication as a kind of minutes because of the advantage that the users can communicate with each other in real time and the contents of the communication can be stored.

That is, in a meeting held off-line by a company or other predetermined organizations, a specific person is designated to summarize and edit the contents of the meeting, leaving the contents of the meeting as a record, that is, a meeting record. Based on the minutes written in this way, we can summarize the results derived from the meetings, and also check what people have said at the meeting in the future.

However, there has been a demand for a meeting to be held on-line through an instant messaging communication because the conventional conference type, that is, a conference held offline, is inconvenient for a plurality of people to gather at the same place at the same time.

As a result of the conference using the instant messaging communication, the parties do not have to gather in one place, and the contents of the meeting remain as the characters, so that the contents of the meeting need not be taken down by anyone.

However, the contents through the instant messaging communication are different from the minutes recording format, and it is inconvenient to write or modify the minutes again based on the contents of the instant messaging communication.

For example, an advantage of instant messaging communication is that it is possible to change the name of the user's own message, that is, the ID, as described above. In the minutes, the real name needs to be entered instead of the user ID. And then change the ID to the real name again.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a communication terminal and a control method thereof that can easily generate conversation contents through instant messaging communication as minutes data.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a control method of a communication terminal for generating minutes data based on instant messaging data according to the present invention, the method comprising: storing address book data in which correspondent names corresponding to counterpart telephone numbers are stored; Receiving instant messaging signal data including an opposite party's ID, a counterpart phone number, and an instant message from the corresponding counterpart terminal and storing the instant messaging signal data with at least one counterpart terminal, Displaying messenger conversation content data including an instant message on a display unit; Extracting, from the address book data, a correspondent name corresponding to a phone number of the other party of the instant messaging signal data received from the counterpart terminal; And generating minutes data in which the name of the other party of the instant messaging content data displayed on the display unit is converted into the extracted name of the other party after the instant messaging processing unit completes the instant messaging communication.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a communication terminal for generating minutes data on the basis of instant messaging data according to the present invention includes: an address book storage unit for storing a name of a partner corresponding to a partner phone number; Receiving instant messaging signal data including an opposite party's ID, a counterpart phone number, and an instant message from the corresponding counterpart terminal and storing the instant messaging signal data with at least one counterpart terminal, An instant messaging processor for continuously displaying messenger conversation contents data including an instant message on a display unit; A name extracting unit for extracting, from the address book storage unit, a name of a partner corresponding to a partner phone number of the instant messaging signal data received from the partner terminal; And a meeting record data generating unit for generating meeting record data in which the other party's ID of the messenger conversation content data displayed on the display unit is converted into the opposite party name extracted from the name extracting unit after the instant messaging processing unit completes the instant messaging communication .

As described above, according to the present invention, the user having the communication terminal performing the instant messaging communication can easily generate the minutes data based on the information stored in the instant messaging communication, and can also generate the minutes data to the other party It is possible to reduce the inconvenience of having to prepare and submit the minutes separately.

Particularly, in the instant messaging communication in which the ID can be freely changed, the minutes converted into the user name corresponding to each ID (that is, matched to the telephone number) can be easily changed, thereby improving user convenience.

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

A new communication business model between a wired network and a wireless network And various servers according to SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) may be connected as a communication network that supports rich contents based on ALL IP and new service capabilities by presenting the SIPs.

In particular, the IMS network 500 may include a CSCF, a SCIM, an HSS, and the like in order to perform the above functions, but these configurations are well known and will not be described in detail.

The IM server 510 is a server for providing an instant messaging service and connects conversation and media sessions to the mobile communication terminals 100 and 200 using the SIP protocol. The IM server 510 is connected to each of the mobile communication terminals 100 and 200 through a message session relay protocol (MSRP) , A multimedia file, etc.).

The presence server 520 is a service for receiving presence information of a specific user located at a distance from each other. The presence server 520 provides various information about the user, such as whether the user is currently in a state of being able to communicate in real time and which service is available. That is, a service for adding, deleting, changing, and inquiring presence information using SIP is provided.

The MMSC 410 may be configured to operate in conjunction with the web mail server 420 as a server for processing MMS (Multi-Media Messaging Service).

The mobile communication terminals 100 and 200 may correspond to mobile phones, PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants), and the like, which perform data communication wirelessly.

The mobile communication terminal 100 communicates with each other through the respective communication networks. In particular, the mobile communication terminal 100 performs mutual instant messaging communication through the IM server 510 and the presence server 520, and transmits the minutes data created based on the instant messaging communication (Or a specific terminal) through the MMSC 410. The MMSC 410 transmits the MMSC 410 to the corresponding mobile communication terminal 200 (or a specific terminal). Or to the web mail server 420. [

Although FIG. 1 shows only two mobile communication terminals 100 and 200 for performing instant messaging communication, instant messaging communication may be performed between three or more mobile communication terminals.

Specific functions of the mobile communication terminals 100 and 200 will be described with reference to the functional block diagram of FIG.

2, the mobile communication terminal 100 for generating minutes data based on instant messaging data according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a communication interface unit 110, a key input unit 120, a control unit 130, A display unit 140, and a storage unit 150.

The communication interface unit 110 forms a communication channel with the base stations 310 and 320 and transmits and receives data to and from each other. The key input unit 120 receives a user's input and transmits the received data to the control unit 130 And a keypad having at least one key button. The display unit 140 displays a predetermined image, for example, a result of the operation of the mobile communication terminal 100, a menu screen, or the like And an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) having low power consumption.

Since the communication interface unit 110, the key input unit 120, and the display unit 140 are the general configuration of the known mobile communication terminal 100, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The storage unit 150 includes an address book storage unit 151, a meeting time storage unit 152, and a format storage unit 153.

Here, the address book storage unit 151 stores address book information in which the other party's phone number and the name of the other party are matched. The start time and end time information of the instant messaging communication are stored in the meeting time storage unit 152, 153 stores the minutes recording format data. Of course, the address book information stored in the address book storage unit 151 may include the telephone number of the user of the mobile communication terminal 100 (i.e., his / her telephone number and corresponding user name)

The information stored in the storage unit 150 will be described in detail together with the functions of the control unit 130, which will be described later.

The control unit 130 includes an instant messaging processing unit 131, a name extracting unit 132, a meeting minutes data generating unit 133, and a data transmitting unit 134.

The instant messaging processing unit 131 performs an instant messaging communication function with at least one counter party mobile communication terminal 200. At this time, the instant messaging processor 131 receives the instant messaging signal data including the other party's ID, the other party's phone number, and the instant message from the corresponding mobile communication terminal 200 and stores the instant messaging signal data in the messenger And displays the conversation content data on the display unit 140.

That is, the instant messaging signal data between the mobile communication terminals 100 and 200 includes an instant message input by a user of each of the mobile communication terminals 100 and 200, a phone number and an ID of the user (here, The instant messaging processor 131 stores all of the received instant messaging signal data, extracts the instant messaging signal data from the instant messaging signal data, and displays the extracted instant messaging message data on the display unit 140 as messenger conversation contents data.

That is, the information displayed on the display unit 140 is messenger conversation content data. In this messenger conversation contents data, not all the instant messaging signal data received from the counterpart terminal are included but the other party's ID Only the instant message created by the corresponding party can be included.

This is because the instant messaging signal data actually received may include various additional information for communication and the like, and it is not necessary for the users of each mobile communication terminal 100 to check all of the information.

Here, the instant messaging processor 131 processes not only the instant messaging signal data received from the counterpart terminal 200 but also the instant messaging signal data generated by the party user (i.e., the user of the mobile communication terminal 100) As well as the contents of the instant messaging signal data transmitted to the mobile terminal.

That is, since the contents of the conversation between the terminals are displayed on the display unit 140, it is a matter of course that the ID of the instant messaging signal transmitted by the user to the counterpart terminal 200 and the messenger conversation contents are displayed on the display unit 140 The description of the process of extracting the name of the user or displaying the contents inputted by the user on the display unit 140 may be omitted.

Meanwhile, the instant messaging processing unit 131 stores the instant messaging communication start time and the end time with the counterpart terminal 200 in the meeting time storage unit 152. [ That is, the instant messaging processor 131 records the time of the instant messaging communication start time with the counterpart terminal 200, and also records the time instant when the instant messaging communication ends. Here, Naturally, date information can also be included.

The start and end of the instant messaging communication does not mean the start and end of reception of the respective instant messaging signal data but the start and end of the instant messaging communication data are based on the start time point at which a series of instant messaging signal data is received and the time point at which the reception of all instant messaging signal data ends do. For example, when the user operates the key input unit 120 necessary for instant messaging communication with the counterpart terminal 200 to start the instant messaging communication, The case where the predetermined key input unit 120 is operated to terminate the communication can be determined as the instant when the instant messaging communication is terminated.

The above-described processes performed by the instant messaging processor 131, that is, the storing and displaying processes, can be repeated during the instant messaging communication.

The storage unit 150 storing the instant messaging signal data received in FIG. 1 may be provided in an area separated from other storage units 150, though not shown separately.

The name extracting unit 132 extracts the other party's telephone number from the instant messaging signal data received from the other party's mobile communication terminal 100 and stores the name of the other party corresponding to the extracted partner's telephone number in the address book storage unit 151 The function of the name extracting unit 132 may be performed after the instant messaging communication between the mobile communication terminals 100 and 200 is terminated.

Similarly, the name extracting unit 132 may extract the name of the user of the mobile communication terminal 100 as well as the name of the called party.

The meeting record data generation unit 133 performs a function of generating meeting record data after the instant messaging processing unit 131 ends the instant messaging communication.

At this time, the meeting record data generating unit 133 converts the other party's ID from the messenger conversation content data displayed on the display unit 140 into the name of the other party extracted from the name extracting unit 132, and generates minutes data.

In addition, the minutes data generator 133 may extract instant messaging communication start time and end time from the meeting time storage unit 152 and add the minutes data to the minutes data.

The conference record data generation unit 133 extracts the counterpart party ID from the messenger conversation contents data displayed on the display unit 140, generates a single identity group from which the overlapping counterpart party ID is removed, The name of the other party corresponding to the ID may be extracted on the basis of the telephone number of the instant messaging signal data and the data of the address book storage unit 151 and may be generated as a meeting attendee list and included in the meeting list data.

The minutes data generation unit 133 performs various functions for generating the minutes data. The minutes data generation criterion may be based on the minutes data format pre-stored in the format storage unit 153.

That is, the meeting record data generation unit 133 can identify the information necessary for generating the meeting record data based on the meeting record format stored in the format storage unit 153, and extract the corresponding information to include in the meeting record data.

The data transferring unit 134 transmits the meeting record data generated by the meeting record data generating unit 133 to a predetermined terminal. Here, the terminal to which the conference record data is to be transmitted performs instant messaging communication with a predetermined submission target terminal And may correspond to at least one of the counterpart terminals.

The method of transmitting the minutes data to the predetermined terminal by the data transmission unit 134 may be an instant messaging communication or an MMS communication method or a web mail of the counterpart terminal user.

Accordingly, when transmitting the minutes data to the predetermined destination terminal, the data transfer unit 134 transfers at least one of the predetermined number of the submission target terminal phone numbers or web mail (s) from the storage unit 150 In the case of transmitting the minutes data to each of the counterpart terminals that have performed the instant messaging communication, the telephone number or the web address (corresponding to the concrete storage space is not shown) corresponding to each correspondent terminal is stored in the storage unit 150).

Hereinafter, an overall control process of the mobile communication terminal 100 for generating the minutes data based on the instant messaging data according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

When the instant messaging communication is started (step S1), the mobile communication terminal 100 stores the start time (step S3).

When the instant messaging signal is received from the counterpart terminal 200 (step S5), the counterpart ID, the counterpart phone number, and the instant message are stored (step S7). Messenger conversation contents data including the counterpart ID and the instant message are displayed And displays it on the display unit 140 (step S9).

Of course, the content displayed on the display unit 140 may include not only the instant messaging signal received from the counterpart terminal 200 but also the contents included in the instant messaging signal generated by the pertinent user 200 And instant messages).

When the instant messaging communication with the counterpart terminal 200 is finished (step S11), the mobile communication terminal 100 stores the time of the end point (step S13), and extracts the counterpart name corresponding to the counterpart telephone number S15). Of course, the user's name can also be extracted at this time.

Subsequently, the mobile communication terminal 100 generates the minutes data converted into the opposite party's name and the partner's name (including, of course, conversion of the user's user ID into the user's name) (step S17).

At this time, the mobile communication terminal 100 may add the angle of the instant messaging communication start time and the end time of the instant messaging communication to the minutes data (step S19), and may also extract the instant messaging communication list and add it to the minutes data (step S21) .

Then, the mobile communication terminal 100 transmits the generated minutes data to the predetermined counterpart terminal using various communication methods (step S23).
