Vehicle theft alarm method and device using GSM terminal

The present invention relates to a vehicle theft alarm method and apparatus using a GSM terminal, and more particularly, to a vehicle theft alarm method and apparatus using a GSM terminal to notify the vehicle theft using the SMS (Short Message Service) function of the GSM terminal. will be.

Telephone terminals, which are widely used throughout our living spaces, are the most basic daily necessities of modern people who have reached the information age. In recent years, they have become increasingly diverse and convenient from the functions of telephones as simple telephone devices that have been provided. Telephone terminals with functions have emerged.

In addition, as the communication technology is rapidly developed, the GSM terminal has been developed and utilized to allow an individual to communicate with another person while moving from an arbitrary place or from one place to another.

1 is a block diagram showing the internal configuration of the GSM terminal of the telephone terminal.

In the drawing, reference numeral 10 denotes a terminal for communication by receiving a channel from a base station, 11 denotes an antenna for transmitting and receiving data with the base station, and 12 denotes a low noise amplifier (LNA) for amplifying a frequency signal received by the antenna 11. A low noise amplifier section 13 consisting of a low noise amplifier, etc., 13 is a demodulation section that demodulates an original code signal from a frequency signal inputted through the low noise amplifier section 12.

Further, reference numeral 14 denotes interleaving, block coding, and convolutional coding for data transmitted and received through the demodulator 13 and the modulator 19 to be described later. A base band circuit 15 for executing coding is a LAPDm processor for processing control data transmitted and received according to a LAPDm standard with a base station.

Further, 16 is a speaker for outputting an audio signal from an opposite station terminal in an audible voice, 17 is a microphone for converting and inputting a user's voice input into an electric voice signal, and 18 is an analog voice signal input from the microphone 17. Converts the digital data into digital data, converts the voice data applied through the baseband processor 14 into an analog voice signal, and outputs the voice data to the speaker 16.

Reference numeral 19 denotes a modulator for modulating the transmission data output through the baseband processor 14 into a predetermined frequency signal, and 20 denotes an amplifier for amplifying the frequency signal modulated by the modulator 19. .

Reference numeral 21 denotes a key input unit having a plurality of numeric keys and function keys, 22 denotes a display unit such as a liquid crystal display (LCD) for displaying various operating states or operating states of the terminal, and 23 denotes a terminal of the terminal. A control unit for controlling the terminal according to the operation signal input through the key input unit 21, the operation state of the use state, 24 is a program memory in which the operation program of the control unit 23 is stored, 25 is the control unit ( It is a data memory that stores various processing data related to the operation of (23).

Further, reference numeral 26 denotes an analog / digital converter for digitally converting the received data demodulated by the demodulator 13 and outputting a data value corresponding to the received power level to the controller 23, which is a base station of the terminal. It is provided for selection or handover function.

That is, in the terminal having the above-described configuration, when the user turns on the power of the terminal 10, the controller 23 is received through the antenna 11 while sequentially increasing or decreasing the demodulation frequency of the demodulator 13. In addition to searching the wireless carrier, the base station to which it belongs is identified based on the level of each demodulated signal input through the A / D converter 26. At this time, the controller 23 stores the control data for controlling the demodulator 13 and the level value of the received data input through the A / D converter in the data memory 25 and then has the highest level value. The demodulation frequency of the demodulator 13 is set based on the reception frequency.

Then, the control unit 23 receives the broadcast channel from the base station received by the demodulator 14, grasps the information of the base station, and then transmits its own information through the baseband processor 15 and the modulator 19. The registration procedure is performed by transmitting to the base station.

Accordingly, when the base station receives the terminal information from the terminal 10, the base station transmits the terminal information to the base station controller (not shown), and the base station controller transmits the terminal information to the authentication center (not shown) through the exchange (not shown). ), It is checked whether the terminal 10 is legally registered.

If the terminal 10 is normally registered, the base station controller sends the encryption code to the terminal 10 through the base station to register the terminal 10 in a usable state.

In the state where the terminal 10 is normally registered as described above, when the user operates the key input unit 21 and there is a transmission request (call request) to the base station, the control unit 23 detects the key input and then the base station. A random access channel (RACH: Random Access Channel) is sent out for the connection request. At this time, an access grant channel (AGCH) is received from the base station or a voice signal is transmitted / received through an assigned time slot so that a call can be made with another terminal.

Meanwhile, the GSM terminal 10 has a short message service (SMS) function capable of transmitting a message of up to 128 bytes per call. In the state where the terminal 10 is registered in a usable state, a user Presses the SMS function button provided in the key input unit 21, the control unit 23 switches to the message transmission mode according to the program of the program memory 24, and then enters a predetermined key input through the key input unit 21. If so, the corresponding data message is converted into an analog signal through the modulator 19, and then amplified and output.

Accordingly, the counterpart terminal can receive a predetermined message through the display unit.

On the other hand, by using the above function to notify when a vehicle theft occurs, it is possible to realize a GSM terminal that provides a further improved service in addition to the telephone function.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and provides a vehicle theft alarm method and apparatus using a GSM terminal to notify a preset terminal when a vehicle theft occurs using the SMS function in a GSM terminal installed in a vehicle. Has its purpose.
