Description

이동단말기를 이용한 통화요금 확인방법How to Check Call Rates Using a Mobile Terminal

본 발명은 코드분할다중접속방식 이동통신시스템의 통화요금 확인방법에 관한 것으로, 특히 기지국과 호접속후 통화한 시간을 측정하여 계산된 사용요금을 이동단말기를 통하여 확인할 수 있도록 하는 이동단말기를 이용한 통화요금 확인방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a method for checking a call rate of a code division multiple access method mobile communication system, and in particular, a call using a mobile terminal, which allows a mobile terminal to check a usage fee calculated by measuring a time of a call after connecting with a base station. It is about how to check the fare.

종래의 이동통신 단말기는 통화시간만을 표시하여 주는 기능만을 가지고 있다. 이러한 종래 이동단말기는 사용자가 호시도 후에 서비스운용업체의 기지국과 호가 설정되면 계수기가 작동하여 호가 끝날때까지의 시간을 측정하여 이동단말기에 표시하여 준다.The conventional mobile communication terminal has only a function of displaying only talk time. When a user sets up a call with a base station of a service management company after a user attempts a call, the conventional mobile terminal measures the time until the end of the call and displays it on the mobile terminal.

이러한 종래 이동단말기에서는 사용자가 호시도 후에 서비스운용업체의 기지국과 호가 설정되면서 카운터가 작동하여 호가 끝날때까지의 시간을 측정하여 표시하여 주는데, 이 경우 실제 과금이 부과되는 시간과 단말이 계수하는 시간과는 약간의 차이가 있을 수 있으나, 이동통신서비스의 가입자들이 월별로 청구되는 사용요금을 별도의 확인없이 납부하거나, 사용요금이 생각보다 많이 청구되었다고 해도 한달간의 사용내역을 가입자가 일일이 확인하는 작업의 번거러움으로 확인하지 않음으로 인해, 종종 이동단말기의 사용요금과 관련된 분쟁이 발생되는 문제가 있다.In the conventional mobile terminal, the user sets the call with the base station of the service operator after the call attempt and measures and displays the time until the end of the call by operating the counter. In this case, the actual charge is charged and the time counted by the terminal. There may be a slight difference from the above, but the subscribers of the mobile communication service pay the monthly usage fee without confirmation or the subscriber checks the usage history for one month even if the usage fee is charged more than expected. Due to the hassle of checking, there is a problem that often causes a dispute related to the usage fee of the mobile terminal.

본 발명은 상기한 종래기술의 문제점을 감안하여 창안한 것으로서, 기지국과 호접속후 통화한 시간을 측정하여 계산된 사용요금을 이동단말기를 통하여 바로 확인할 수 있도록 하는 이동단말기를 이용한 통화요금 확인방법을 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and a method of confirming a call rate using a mobile terminal which enables a mobile terminal to immediately check a calculated usage rate by measuring a talk time after a call connection with a base station. The purpose is to provide.

상기한 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명의 이동단말기를 이용한 통화요금 확인방법은, 이동단말기 사용자가 발신호를 시도하는 과정과, 기지국과 호를 설정하여 접속하는 과정과, 기지국과의 호접속과 동시에 요금부과를 개시하는 과정과, 실제 사용요금이 부과되는 시점부터 시간을 측정하기 위하여 요금부과 시점에 특정 메시지를 단말기로 보내어 호접속 시간을 측정하는 과정과, 사용자가 미리 입력한 단위 시간당 요금을 토대로 호접속 사용요금을 계산하는 과정과, 호접속이 완료된 후 측정시간과 사용요금을 이동단말기에 표시함과 동시에 저장하는 과정을 구비하여 이루어진 것을 특징으로 한다.Call rate confirmation method using the mobile terminal of the present invention for achieving the above object, the process of the mobile terminal user attempts to make a call, the process of establishing a connection with the base station and the call connection with the base station On the basis of the process of initiating the charge, the process of measuring the call connection time by sending a specific message to the terminal at the time of the charge to measure the time from when the actual usage fee is charged, and based on the unit hourly rate input by the user in advance. And a process of calculating the call connection usage fee and displaying and storing the measurement time and the usage fee on the mobile terminal after the call connection is completed.

도 1은 본 발명에 따른 이동단말기를 이용한 통화요금의 확인방법을 순서대로 도시한 흐름도이다.1 is a flowchart illustrating a method of confirming a call charge using a mobile terminal according to the present invention in order.

이하, 첨부도면을 참조하여 본 발명에 따른 실시예를 보다 상세히 설명하기로 한다.Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 1은 본 발명에 따른 이동단말기를 이용한 통화요금 확인방법을 순서대로 도시한 흐름도이다. 이 도면을 참조하여 본 발명에 따른 이동단말기를 이용한 통화요금 확인방법을 보면, 이동단말기 사용자가 발신호를 시도하는 과정(10)과, 기지국과 호를 설정하여 접속하는 과정(20)과, 기지국과의 호접속과 동시에 요금부과를 개시하는 과정(30)과, 실제 사용요금이 부과되는 시점부터 시간을 측정하기 위하여 요금부과 시점에 특정 메시지를 단말기로 보내어 호접속 시간을 측정하는 과정(40)과, 사용자가 미리 입력한 단위 시간당 요금을 토대로 호접속 사용요금을 계산하는 과정(50)과, 호접속이 완료된 후(60) 측정시간과 사용요금을 이동단말기에 표시함과 동시에 저장하는 과정(70)을 구비하여 이루어진다.1 is a flowchart illustrating a method for checking a call rate using a mobile terminal according to the present invention in order. Referring to the drawings, a method of confirming a call charge using a mobile terminal according to the present invention includes a process of attempting a call by a user of a mobile terminal (10), a process of establishing a call with a base station (20), and a base station. The process of initiating the charge at the same time as the call connection with the service (30) and the process of measuring the call connection time by sending a specific message to the terminal at the time of the charge in order to measure the time from when the actual usage fee is charged (40) And, the process of calculating the call connection fee based on the unit hourly rate input by the user in advance (50), and after the call connection is completed (60) displaying the measured time and fee to the mobile terminal and at the same time saving the process ( 70).

본 발명의 이동단말기를 이용한 통화요금 계산방법은, 이동단말기 사용자가 발신호를 개시하여 기지국과 호가 설정되고 난 후, 실제 사용요금이 부과되는 시점부터 시간을 측정하여 통화가 끝날때까지의 시간을 측정하여 요금을 계산한다. 실제로 사용요금이 부과되는 시점부터 시간을 측정하기 위하여 요금부과 시점에 특정 메시지를 이동단말기로 보내어 주면, 이때부터 통화시간을 측정하여 통화가 끝나면 사용자가 미리 입력한 단위 시간당 요금을 토대로 하여 사용요금을 계산할 수 있다.In the method of calculating a call rate using a mobile terminal of the present invention, after the user of the mobile terminal initiates an outgoing call and the call is established with the base station, the time until the end of the call is measured by measuring the time from when the actual usage fee is charged. Calculate your bill by measuring. In order to measure the time from the time when the usage fee is actually charged, when a specific message is sent to the mobile terminal at the time of charging, the call time is measured from this point onwards. Can be calculated

또한, 매월의 사용요금을 누적하여 한달간의 사용요금을 알 수 있게 하며, 사용자에 의해 누적된 사용요금을 리세트할 수 있게 한다.In addition, it is possible to know the monthly usage fee by accumulating the monthly usage fee, and it is possible to reset the accumulated usage fee by the user.

상술한 바의 본 발명에 따르면, 이동통신서비스의 가입자들이 월별로 청구되는 사용요금을 별도의 확인없이 납부하거나, 사용요금이 생각보다 많이 청구되었다고 해도 한달간의 사용내역을 일일이 확인하는 작업의 번거러움으로 인해 확인하지 않는 문제를 자신의 이동단말기에서 실제 통화시간을 토대로 요금을 계산하여 확인할 수가 있으므로, 이동단말기의 사용요금과 관련된 분쟁을 사전에 방지할 수 있으며, 서비스 운용업체의 요금부과에도 투명성이 보장되는 효과가 있다.According to the present invention as described above, even if the subscribers of the mobile communication service pay the monthly usage fee without additional confirmation, or even if the usage fee is charged more than expected, it is troublesome to check the usage history for one month. Due to the fact that you can check the charges based on the actual talk time on your mobile device, you can prevent disputes related to the usage fee of your mobile device in advance, and ensure transparency in the service provider's charges. It is effective.
