The control unit 601 determines whether an acceleration signal is received from the acceleration sensor 605 when the call signal is received through the communication unit 604 (S42). For example, the acceleration sensor 605 generates an acceleration signal in accordance with an external shock or vibration by a user, and outputs the generated acceleration signal to the controller 601. [

When the acceleration signal is received from the acceleration sensor 605 when the call signal is received through the communication unit 604, the control unit 601 transmits the received acceleration signal and a predetermined acceleration The signals are compared (S43). For example, when the acceleration signal is received from the acceleration sensor 605 when the call signal is received through the communication unit 604, the control unit 601 compares the waveform of the received acceleration signal with the waveform of the storage unit 602 The waveforms of the preset acceleration signals stored in the acceleration sensor are compared with each other.

[ When the acceleration signal is received, it may be determined whether the waveform of the received acceleration signal is similar to the waveform of the preset acceleration signal stored in the storage unit 602.

If the waveform of the received acceleration signal and the waveform of the preset acceleration signal stored in the storage unit 602 are matched or similar to each other, the controller 601 outputs the matched waveform or a similar waveform to a first preset time (S45). If the first predetermined number of times has elapsed, the process proceeds to step S45. For example, if the waveform of the received acceleration signal and the "waveform of the preset acceleration signal" stored in the storage unit 602 are matched or similar to each other, the controller 601 determines that the matched waveform, (A first predetermined number of times) for one second (the first predetermined time).

16 is a flowchart illustrating a call signal control method according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention.

First, the control unit 601 determines whether the call signal is received through the wireless communication network (S51). For example, the control unit 601 determines whether a call signal has been received through the communication unit 604.

The control unit 601 determines whether a pressure signal is received from the pressure sensor 606 when the call signal is received through the communication unit 604 (S52). For example, the pressure sensor 605 is applied to the display unit 603, generates a pressure signal according to the pressure externally or by the user, and outputs the generated pressure signal to the controller 601. [ The pressure sensor 605 generally generates an electrical input signal (for example, a pressure signal) in accordance with a change in pressure applied to a specific portion of the display unit 603. [

The control unit 601 receives a pressure signal from the pressure sensor 606 when the call signal is received through the communication unit 604 and outputs the received pressure signal to a predetermined pressure The signals are compared (S53). For example, when the control unit 601 receives a pressure signal from the pressure sensor 606 when the call signal is received through the communication unit 604, the control unit 601 compares the waveform of the received pressure signal with the waveform of the storage unit 602 The waveforms of the preset pressure signals are compared with each other.

For example, if the waveform of the received pressure signal and the "waveform of the preset pressure signal" stored in the storage unit 602 are matched or similar to each other, the controller 601 determines that the matched waveform, (Second predetermined number of times) in the second interval (second predetermined time interval). Here, the second predetermined time interval and the second predetermined number of times are not fixed, and can be changed by a designer or a user.

The control unit 601 generates a second message (S58) when the matched waveform or a similar waveform is generated a second predetermined number of times at a second predetermined time interval, and transmits the second message to the calling mobile terminal send. For example, the controller 601 generates a pre-stored message (second message) indicating that the matched waveform or similar waveform has been generated a second predetermined number of times at a second predetermined time interval And transmits the second message to the caller's mobile terminal through the communication unit 604. [

If the waveform of the received acceleration signal and the "waveform of the preset pressure signal" stored in the storage unit 602 are matched or similar to each other, the controller 601 outputs the matched waveform or a similar waveform to a third predetermined time It is determined whether a third predetermined number of times have been generated at intervals (S57). For example, if the waveform of the received pressure signal and the "waveform of the preset pressure signal" stored in the storage unit 602 are matched or similar to each other, the controller 601 determines that the matched waveform or a similar waveform is 0.5 (The third predetermined number of times) in the second interval (third predetermined time interval).
