Description

Method for service of voice mailbox using internet {Method for service as to voice mail system using internet}

The present invention relates to a voice mail system (VMS) service, and more particularly to a voice mailbox service method using the Internet to enable recording of greetings as well as voice mail service using the Internet.

In general, the wireless calling service has been re-evaluated to the user by its simplicity and portability that can be carried on the go, but the current high penetration rate has been received, but only a number or letter has to be delivered.

Therefore, the wireless call service that calls the wireless call user when the other party to be communicated is absent or out of the office has the inconvenience of waiting for a call after the call.

The service provided to improve such caller inconvenience is the voice mailbox service. This service has the advantage of eliminating concurrency for calls by storing the caller's contents in a voice storage device, and provides an efficient means of exchanging information based on the S / F function of voice services. I can provide it.

Such a voice mail service allows a person who has a point of contact to record the contents necessary for the voice storage space in advance by setting a predetermined voice storage space exclusively for oneself, such as a postal mailbox system. If you want to deliver the necessary message, it is a service that performs a function to allow specific people to listen to the recording of the required message in the voice storage space.

When calling a subscriber subscribed to the voice mailbox, the voice message subscriber sends out the announcement message and stores the voice message generated by the calling subscriber in the voice mailbox subscriber's area. The voicemail subscriber can then check for new incoming voice messages from time to time using the telephone, and listen to the recorded voice messages using the telephone.

Therefore, such a voice mailbox service is usefully used to deliver or receive necessary contents when a call is not possible in real time, to deliver a necessary fact to a plurality of specific people, or to exchange necessary information between specific people.

However, this voice mailbox service has the following inconvenience due to the limitation of using a telephone despite the above-mentioned advantages.

First, due to the development of industry, the distinction between modern nations became obscure, and the borders between borders disappeared, thus expanding the radius of people's activities globally. In other words, subscribers using the voicemail service are no longer people in one country, but are moved to multiple countries or live in multiple countries. Although the demand for use has risen, the conventional voice mailbox service method has been actively used only through a national line or an extension within a country or a region. As described above, the voice librarian service was not used as an international information transmission means and was only domestic use because the cost burden for the international call cost problem caused by using the voice mailbox service in another country was high. It was.

Secondly, as the development of information and communication progresses actively, the delivery of moving picture information or various digitized information in addition to a telephone call in which only a voice message is delivered is actively progressing. A representative example of such means of digitalized information delivery is the Internet network. Globally, network information is connected and network information is transmitted and exchanged according to a predetermined promise. However, the above-mentioned voice mailbox service has not been used in connection with the Internet network, even though the Internet network has been spotlighted as a future communication medium and used by a large number of people who cross the border. There was a restriction that could only be used.

Here, the Internet started out as a special military computer network and is now used as a popular network connecting computers in almost every country of the world. Technically, the Internet is a network of computer networks that exchange data in accordance with a communication protocol called Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol (TCP / IP). In other words, not all computers are connected to any central network, but any network can be easily connected as long as it satisfies the specified protocol, so that a large number of computers can be connected as they are now.

In general, services using the Internet have a client / server structure in which one computer requests information from another computer and the requested computer passes the requested information. The one that provides the information is called the server computer, and the one that receives the information is called the client computer.

In addition to the problems of the conventional voice mailbox service described above, the voice mailbox service currently used has a disadvantage of burdening the user because it is charged.

Accordingly, the present invention has been proposed to solve various problems arising from the conventional voice mailbox service method as described above.

An object of the present invention is to provide a voice mailbox service method using the Internet to enable recording of greetings as well as voice mail service using the Internet.

The present invention for achieving this object,

A first step of checking whether a voice mail service request is requested and if the result of the check is a voice mail service request, transmitting a web page to a user through an internet network;

A second step of searching for a signal input by the user after transmitting the web page and registering information input by the user if the search results result in a new registration;

A third step of requesting a user identification number (ID) when the search result is not a new registration and checking whether the user is a registered user by searching for a unique number input by the user;

A fourth step of receiving a voice mailbox number and confirming whether it is a data registration or a stored data withdrawal request when the registered user is a registered user as a result of the checking of the third step;

A fifth process of storing a voice input by a user or music selected by the user in a voice mailbox when data is registered as a result of the verification of the fourth process;

When the data withdrawal request is confirmed as a result of the fourth process, the data stored in the voice mailbox may be withdrawn and transmitted to the user terminal through the Internet.

In the second process, when the new registration is performed, the user information is registered by receiving a user's unique number, receiving a voice mailbox number of the user, and storing the received user's unique number and the voice mailbox number. do.

The fifth process may include storing a voice message of the user or music selected by the user in the user's wireless pager or mobile phone using dial-up when the user selects the greeting recording function.

As shown, in step S11 it is checked whether or not the voice mail mailbox service request, in step S12 performs a normal process if not the voice mailbox service, and in step S13 a web page (Web Page) through the Internet network if the voice mailbox service request ) Is sent to the user, and in step S14, if the user inputs arbitrary data by viewing the web page, it is checked whether the input data is new registration. If the result of this check is a new registration, a user identification number (ID) and a password are received in step S15, a voice mailbox number is received in step S16, and user information is registered in step S17.

In addition, in step S18, if the user registration number is not newly requested, a user identification number is requested. If a user ID is received, in step S19, it is checked whether the received user identification number is a registered ID. If the ID is registered as a result of this check, the user's voice mailbox number is received, and in step S21, it is checked whether or not the data registration request is made.

In the case of the data registration result of the check, in step S22, the user inputs or selects the music stored in the voice mailbox, and in step S23, if the user wants to record a greeting, the user uses dial-up to transmit it to the user's wireless pager or mobile phone. Save your voice.

In addition, in step S24, the user checks whether the voice data is withdrawn, and when the user requests voice data withdrawal, the voice data stored in the voice mailbox is withdrawn in step S25, and in step S26, the voice data is retrieved from the Internet network. Send to the user terminal through.

In the voice mailbox service method using the Internet network according to the present invention, the user first attempts to access the Internet network 2 using the user terminal 1. When the connection is successfully established, data for the voice mailbox service is transmitted, and the voice mailbox service request signal transmitted as described above is transmitted to the server 3 through the Internet network 2. The user terminal 1 may be a computer incorporating the TCP / IP protocol or a telephone incorporating the protocol.

In the above, the voice mail service function is performed and the mode is set in the user terminal 1 as shown in FIG. 3.

That is, an attempt is made to connect to the Internet in step S31, and if the connection is successful in step S32, the voice mailbox service is requested in step S33. Thereafter, in step S34, the server 3 receives the web page supplied through the Internet network 2 and displays it on the screen. Then set the mode you want to be serviced by.

If the mode set by the user is the new registration mode as in step S35, the user ID is transmitted in step S36, and then a voice mailbox number is transmitted in step S37 so that new registration is performed.

Next, if the mode set by the user is the voice data storage mode as in step S38, the process moves to step S39 to transmit the user's unique number, and in step S40, the voice data to be stored in the voice mailbox is transmitted.

In addition, if the mode set by the user is the greeting recording mode as in step S41, go to step S42 to transmit the user's unique number, and in step S43 to transmit the voice to be recorded by the greeting or to the music already registered in the server 3 Select.

If the mode set by the user is the voice data retrieval mode as in step S44, the mobile station proceeds to step S45 to transmit a user ID, and in step S46, the server 3 transmits the user ID through the Internet network 2; You will receive the voice data you send.

Meanwhile, the server 3 receiving the voice mail service request performs a voice mail and greeting recording function according to the procedure shown in FIG. 2.

That is, in step S11, if it is confirmed that the voice mailbox service request is a signal for communication other than the voice mailbox service request, the process moves to step S12 to perform a general communication processing operation.

On the contrary, when the user requests the voice mail service as a result of the search in step S11, the web page is transmitted to the user through the Internet network 2 in step S13. Then, the user sees the web page displayed on the screen and inputs functions such as new registration, voice data input, greeting recording, and retrieved voice message.

When the specific function is input, the server 3 checks whether the data input by the user in step S14 is new registration. If the result of this confirmation is a new registration, the process moves to step S15 to receive a unique number (ID) and a password input by the user, a voice mailbox number is received in step S16, and user information is then registered in step S17. This registration procedure is for performing voice mail service over the Internet.

Next, if the data entered by the user as a result of the check in step S14 is not new registration and is other service data, go to step S18 to request the user's unique number, and when the user's unique number (ID) is received, In step S19, it is checked whether the received user identification number is a registered identification number (ID). As a result of this check, if the registered unique number (ID) is received, the user's voice mailbox number is received. Then, in step S21, it is checked whether or not the data registration request is requested.

If the data is registered as a result of the check, the music input or selected by the user is stored in the voice mailbox in step S22. Subsequently, in step S23, when a user wants to record a greeting, a voice input by the user or music selected by the user is stored in the user's wireless pager or mobile phone by using dial-up.

In addition, in step S24, if the function requested by the user is not a data registration function, it is checked whether voice data withdrawal is requested. When the user requests voice data withdrawal, voice data stored in the voice mailbox is withdrawn in step S25. In step S26, the extracted voice data is transmitted to a user terminal through an internet network.

This enables voice mailbox service and greeting recording over the Internet.

In the above-described "voice mailbox service method using the Internet network" according to the present invention, a voice mailbox service is possible through the Internet network, and there is an advantage that greeting recording is also possible through the Internet network.

In addition, voice mail and greeting recording services are available through the Internet network, so that any subscriber who subscribes to Internet communication can receive voice mail and greeting recording services free of charge, without using the 700 paid service. There is this.
