Description

Radio call receiving device that designates and displays the attribute of message

The present invention relates to a wireless call receiving apparatus, and in particular, receives a signal inputted by the caller, the character of the identification code for specifying the attribute of the text, such as the color, size, or density of the specific text of the message transmitted from the base station The present invention relates to a wireless call receiving apparatus which transmits a message and displays a text message with an attribute corresponding to an identification code on the display apparatus of the wireless call receiving apparatus.

In general, a paging receiver receives a radio call signal transmitted from a paging system (Pasing System), which is a land base station, and delivers a message to a receiver. The paging receiver is generally manufactured to be small so that a user can easily carry it. .

Such a pager typically assigns a unique code corresponding to the call address of each pager in order to call the pager in the paging system.

Therefore, the paging system accesses the unique code corresponding to the dial information received from the subscriber and propagates to the air so as to call the corresponding radio call. Then, the radio call receiver receives the unique code propagated in the air and compares it with its own pre-stored unique address. When the radio call receiver has the same address data, it recognizes that it is its own call, generates a call alert signal, and simultaneously makes a relative call subscriber. Will be displayed along with the phone number.

The wireless pager has been widely used as a technology for transmitting and receiving various text messages and displaying them through the LCD display panel of the wireless call reception apparatus in a step of simply transmitting and receiving numbers in the related art, according to the development of wired and wireless communication technology.

More advanced types of these text call receiver technologies include stock quotes, weather information, gold prices, sports scores and news headlines on the service provider side. Information pager systems are also well known that allow for continuous, constantly changing information, such as time schedules such as trains / buses, at any time and in any place depending on the subscriber's needs.

The reception method of such an information pager is largely divided into two types. One of them is a method of receiving the total amount of various wireless service information provided from the service provider in a frequency modulation (FM) scheme and continuously storing the total amount of wireless service information in a large memory of the information pager, that is, the pager. Since the capacity is limited, the subscriber is configured to view only the latest updated contents and then select only the necessary information from the stored information through the LCD using the selection button.

In addition, there is a second method that transmits only the information of interest requested by the subscriber using a telephone and the like to the information pager from a large amount of information provided by the service provider.

Therefore, as the spread of pagers, that is, text pagers using the above-mentioned method, there is an increasing number of operators who want to use the pagers for advertisement of companies and products.

However, the present wireless call receiving apparatus that receives and displays text data transmitted from the information service provider, that is, advertisements, news information, stock information, sports information, and the like, is simply a function of simply listing the transmitted messages. There is a problem that can not get the recipient's attention because there is no feature.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to designate the density of a color, size, or text by specifying an attribute of a specific portion of a message displayed when a caller receives a message signal inputted by a caller and transmitted by a base station. It is to provide a wireless call receiving apparatus that displays in a different style.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a wireless call receiving apparatus including a large display panel to receive a wireless call signal in real time and display the received message.

The object of the present invention is to provide a radio call receiving apparatus comprising: receiving means for receiving a message signal input by a caller and receiving a radio call signal including an identification code for specifying a property of a specific part of a message transmitted from a radio call base station; ; Decoding means for demodulating the message data to which the recognition code received by the receiving means is assigned and decoding the demodulated message data and the recognition code; Control means for controlling to display the specific portion according to a specified attribute according to the decoded recognition code; And a display means for displaying the corresponding message to which a recognition code is assigned according to a control signal provided from the control means with a specified attribute.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, a preferred embodiment of the wireless call receiving apparatus and method according to the present invention will be described in detail.

1 is a block diagram illustrating a wireless call receiving apparatus according to the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, a configuration of a wireless call transmitting apparatus of a base station including a transmitter 10 and an antenna ANT1 and a receiver is shown. 20, a demodulator 30, a decoder 40, a controller 50, a color display driver 60, and a display unit 70, the radio call receiving apparatus. Here, the display unit 70, of course, uses a color display device that can display natural colors.

The caller transmits to the radio calling base station by using a calling device such as a telephone or a computer including numbers, symbols, and letters to be sent to the called party. The caller then composes the message, specifying attributes such as color, size, or density for the particular part of the message that is intended for the intended recipient. In this case, the property designation uses special symbols or characters that are not generally used in call signals. As such, a code that designates a display of a specific part of the message to be displayed differently from another part is defined as a recognition code in the present invention. Here, the text data means all data transmitted to the wireless call receiving apparatus including the caller's transmission message (telephone number, etc.) as well as advertisement information, news information, sports information, and stock information as described above.

Recognition codes can specify that the caller who composes the calling message, that is, the text message, attaches before or after the message to assign attributes to specific letters, symbols, or sentences. Therefore, the portion in which the attribute is specified is different from the other portions, and thus attracts the attention of the user because the color, size, or density of letters is different.

When the caller transmits a message including an identification code specifying an attribute of a specific part, the transmitting unit 10 of the base station's radio calling transmitter receives the character including the identification code for selectively specifying the size and color of the character. The message data is transmitted to the radio call receiving apparatus through the antenna ANT1.

Therefore, the transmitter 10 of the base station, that is, the radio call transmission apparatus, uses an existing radio call system, but transmits a data signal including an identification code according to the present invention.

Recognition codes include unused special symbols or unused characters in Korean, such as 10H, 20H, 30H,...,..., ..... For each of these recognition codes, attributes such as specific colors, sizes, or density of letters are specified and used as codes.

The receiving unit 20 of the radio call receiving apparatus receives the text data including the recognition code of the character transmitted from the transmitting unit 10 of the transmitting apparatus through the antenna ANT2.

The demodulator 30 demodulates the text message data including the recognition code received by the receiver 20 and outputs the demodulated text message to the decoder 40.

The decoder 40 decodes the demodulated text message data output from the demodulator 30 and a recognition code for designating attributes for the text message, respectively, and outputs them to the controller 50.

The controller 50 determines whether there is a recognition code that designates the attribute of the character data among the data decoded and output by the decoder 40, and if the recognition code is present, the controller 50 displays an attribute corresponding to the code on the display unit 70. To provide a control signal.

Therefore, when the attribute designates color, the color display driver 60 drives the display unit 70, that is, the color LCD, according to the driving control signal provided from the controller 50, so that the color of the character corresponding to the recognition code, Allow messages to be displayed in concentration and size. In the case of the general pager, the color cannot be expressed. Therefore, in response to the corresponding recognition code, the background and the black and white of the letters are inverted (Inverse image) or the size of the letters is configured to be displayed differently.

The operation of the apparatus for receiving a wireless call according to the present invention having such a configuration will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

2 is a flowchart illustrating an operation of a wireless call transmission and reception control method according to the present invention.

First, the base station receiving the call signal including the identification code created and sent by the caller transmits the message to the air through the antenna ANT1 from the transmitter 10 of the transmitting apparatus again as a message including the identification code (S101).

The text message data including the transmitted recognition code is received by the receiving unit 20 through the antenna ANT2 of the wireless call receiving apparatus (S102), and the demodulation unit 30 receives the text message data to which the received recognition code is assigned. After demodulation, the decoding unit 40 decodes the text message data including the encoded recognition code (S103).

Subsequently, the controller 50 analyzes whether the decoded data includes an identification code for designating an attribute of the text message. If the recognition code is included, the controller 50 determines an attribute of the text message according to the attribute corresponding to the identification code. The drive control signal is output together with the character data so as to indicate.

In the case of specifying the attribute of the color in the present invention, in order to display the color, the color display driver 60 capable of driving the color display unit should be provided. The color display driver 60 may be configured as a separate product or may be built in the controller. Accordingly, the text LCD having the size and color desired by the caller is displayed on the color LCD 70 (S105).

A general pager without a color display driver and a color LCD may appear reversed or have a different font size when there is a recognition code of the above attribute.

As described above, in the method of displaying the text message on the display unit 70 using the recognition code, a method of selecting the recognition code will be described for each embodiment.

(First embodiment)

Let's take a look at the case of using an unused ASCII code among the character codes used in the wireless call receiver.

In the current wireless calling system, the ASCII code 2ψH is not used except a few, so the remaining code is used, and 1ψH is used as a recognition code for color. Here, H means hexadecimal number (Hexa Decimal).

For example, when a caller sends a text message of "world 10H 20H up to 10H 30H product" by giving an identification code specifying an arbitrary color to a text message of "world best product" when the caller calls, the display of the wireless call receiving apparatus is displayed. The unit 70 displays "world best product". Here, the word "world" is displayed in black, the word "best" is displayed in yellow, and the word "product" is displayed in different colors in red.

That is, the code of 10H is a code for transmitting color data, 20H is a code for displaying the word "best" in yellow, and 30H is a code for displaying the word "product" in red. The codes are cases in which the radio call transmitter and the radio call receiver pre-arrange each other. Herein, when no code is given before the word "world", it means to display in black.

An example as described above is a case in which the recognition code is given before a character or sentence for displaying in a certain color, and the color code may be given after the character or sentence for color display and transmitted. This is what a transmitter and a receiver need to mutually contract in this way.

(Second embodiment)

It is the case that the characters which are not used frequently among the completed Korean characters are used as color or text attribute. Normally, Korean character pagers use only complete characters.

For example, when a caller calls "world best product", as shown in the first embodiment, the display unit 70 of the wireless call reception apparatus displays "world best product" and "world". The word "black" is yellow, the word "best" is yellow, and the word "product" is red. That is, "똴" of the call letter means to display a subsequent letter in yellow, and "뤠" is a letter to display a subsequent letter in red. This is also a color delimiter in which the transmitter and the receiver are contracted with each other.

This method can be called by using a general editor when sending a text message using a PC. However, this method can be applied to existing wireless call receivers. However, when the user makes a call as described above, a strange character is displayed on the existing wireless call receiver. There is this.

(Third embodiment)

This is the case when special symbols and numbers are used as attributes of color and text of a text message.

For example, when a caller makes a call "world / 2/2 highest / 3 product", the display unit 70 of the radio call receiving apparatus displays "world best product" as in the first and second embodiments. The word "world" is black, the word "best" is yellow, and the word "product" is red. That is, "/ 2 /" of the call characters means to display the subsequent characters in yellow, and "/ 3/3" is characters to display the subsequent characters in red. This is also a color coded character in which the transmitting device and the receiving device are mutually agreed. That is, the color and the attribute of the text are specified by the numbers in / /.

However, if a number is transmitted along with a text message in the transmission message, there may be a confusion of symbols. Therefore, when a character message is to be transmitted by giving a number to the text message, the above problem can be avoided by providing an additional / symbol in the form of / number /.

As a result, when / number / is received from the transmitter, the wireless call receiving apparatus judges the number as a color code. When / number / is received, the number is determined as a transmission message and the corresponding number is displayed on the display unit 70. To display.

In this type of system, special symbols are assigned to both numbers, such as / 2 / and / 3 /, so that even if they are received by a general radio call receiver, they do not look strange when viewed by a user and can be easily distinguished from text messages or numeric messages. . Here, 1 to 8 are numbers for distinguishing colors, 9 to 15 are numbers for distinguishing letters, and 16 to 23 are numbers for contrast. Branch text attributes can be provided to the user.

(Example 4)

This embodiment is applied to a general number radio call receiver, and is an embodiment to be applied when a user wants to display a specific number message in reverse.

For example, when a caller makes a call with "1 2 3 * 4 5 * * 6 7 8", the caller displays "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8" on the display unit 70 of the wireless call receiving apparatus. Here, the "4 5" is displayed in reverse and the remaining numbers are normally displayed. In other words, the above * * is a symbol for displaying the subsequent numbers in reverse phase, and the * * after "4, 5" is a symbol for canceling the reverse phase. In other words, if a * ＊ symbol is received, the subsequent number is displayed in reverse phase, and if a ＊ ＊ symbol is received, the reverse phase display is released. Such a * symbol can be handled by different special symbols or recognition codes depending on the wireless calling service provider.

As a result, the wireless call receiving apparatus and the control method according to the present invention as described above implements the display unit 70 of the wireless call receiving apparatus with a color LCD to wirelessly connect to a text message when a user makes a call using a text message. When the call transmitting device and the receiving device assign and transmit an identification code specifying the color, size, and attribute of an arbitrary predetermined text message contracted with each other, the identification code is transmitted to the color LCD 70 of the radio call receiving apparatus. Text messages are displayed with the corresponding color, size, and text attributes.

The wireless call receiving apparatus according to the present invention can be used as a general wireless pager, as well as a large display device as a display unit, and can be used as an outdoor billboard or an electronic billboard. In this case, the caller can write the desired message in the form. In order to compose various types of messages including a change in color and size, it is inconvenient for a telephone, and it is preferable to use a computer having a wireless calling function such as a PC.

Information including the identification code created by the caller is propagated to the air by the base station and delivered to the radio call receiving apparatus having the corresponding address. Therefore, the transmission information provided by the caller from time to time can be changed in real time from time to time through a wireless call reception apparatus having an outdoor billboard or an electronic billboard to provide various information and advertisements.

As described above, the wireless call receiving apparatus according to the present invention receives a recognition code specifying an attribute for a specific part of a message, and expresses color, size, or density according to the attribute, thereby receiving various interesting information. have. In particular, when the large display panel is provided, there is an advantage that the information content of the caller can be changed and displayed at any time. In addition, the code for specifying the attributes, such as color, size and density of the text message is simple to use, and the transmission efficiency of the text message is increased.
