In describing the flowchart illustrated in FIG. 5, for convenience of understanding, an exemplary diagram of the D / B table structure of FIG. 6 and the screen display of FIG. 7 will be described together.

Referring to FIG. 5, in step 510, the central server receives a connection request from a passenger terminal (hereinafter referred to as a customer terminal).

Step 510 is a step in which the customer connects to the central server using the driver terminal, which is the same as the screen 710 shown in FIG. 7.

In step 520, the central server transmits a customer password input request to the customer terminal, and the customer password inputted by the customer in step 530 (e.g., a social security number, a mobile phone number, and a second mobile communication service system) Passwords, etc.).

Steps 520 and 530 are steps of accessing the central server using the customer terminal and inputting the customer password at the request of the central server, as shown in screen 720 of FIG. 7.

In step 540, the central server can use the passenger / cargo transportation optimization system using the customer access information including the customer password (i.e. password) received in step 530 and the telephone number of the customer terminal to which the customer is connected. Check if it is.

Validation of step 540 performed between the central server and the second mobile communication service system is performed by using a customer cell number (column ID: PNUM) and a PASSWORD (column ID: PWORD) items in the D / B table shown in FIG. It is done.

That is, the central server transmits the telephone number of the customer terminal and the password received from the customer to the second mobile communication service system. The second mobile communication service system that receives the customer terminal telephone number and the password checks its own database and validates it. If the test result is valid, the central server grants the right to search the customer's location.

If the result of the check in step 540 is that the customer connection information is not valid, go to step 550 and the password is incorrect. Please input again "error message to the customer terminal, and proceeds to step 520 again.

In addition, if the access information of the customer is valid as a result of the check in step 540, the process proceeds to step 560.

In step 560, the central server transmits at least one selection item selectable by the customer to the customer terminal, and receives selection information about the specific item from the customer terminal.

Step 560 is a step of transmitting a plurality of selection items that the customer can select for use of the taxi driving optimization system to the customer terminal, as shown in screens 730 to 740 shown in FIG. 7.

Referring to FIG. 7, in this case, the customer first selects a 'find taxi' item (screen 730) and then selects a 'call taxi' item (screen 740).

Referring back to FIG. 5, in step 570 the central server checks whether a taxi inquiry request is received from the customer terminal.

The screen display displayed on the display unit of the customer terminal for step 570 is the same as the screen 750 of FIG. 7.

Referring to FIG. 7, if the customer selects 'Yes' using the screen 750, the request for transmission of the corresponding taxi list is requested. If the user selects 'No', the transmission of the corresponding taxi list is rejected.

Referring back to FIG. 5, if the customer requests a taxi inquiry as a result of the check in step 570, the process proceeds to step 580 to retrieve a list of available taxis stored in the storage device and transmits the list to the customer terminal. End the step.

If the customer requests a taxi inquiry, the central server receives the location information of the customer from the mobile communication service system using the 'PNUM' column included in the D / B table structure of FIG. 6 (at this time, Base station, repeater, etc.), and the driver's location information is stored in the 'PLOCATION' column included in the D / B table structure of FIG.

Then, the 'DLOCATION' column included in the driver table (refer to FIG. 3) which is already stored is compared using the 'PLOCATION' column stored corresponding to the corresponding customer.

Then, the taxi driver list (ie, the list of available taxis) closest to the current location of the customer is transmitted to the customer terminal.

The state of the taxi list displayed on the display terminal of the customer by the above method is the same as the screen 760 of FIG. 7.

In addition, the list of available taxis displayed on the customer terminal display unit may be displayed in the form of, for example, '016-386-4017 [9]', of which '016-386-4017' is a taxi driver's telephone. '9' means the taxi driver's reliability or customer satisfaction.

In other words, the number displayed in the form of [9] is the average of the numbers entered by the customers using the taxi to evaluate the taxi driver. You can choose a taxi driver.

In addition, although not shown in the flowchart of FIG. 5, the steps that can be performed later will be described.

The customer may request a phone call by selecting a specific phone number from at least one taxi driver's phone number displayed on the customer terminal.

In this case, the telephone call can be requested by inputting the numbers of the telephone numbers displayed on the customer terminal display. Alternatively, the taxi driver's telephone number includes the identification number '1. 016-386-4017 [9] ', the telephone number can be requested by inputting the corresponding identification number (ie, 1). In addition, in the case of a terminal supporting a navigation function using a scroll bar, 'taxi selection-calling' can be performed with a simple key operation.

Of course, in addition to the information that can be output to the customer terminal display unit may include the time information stored in the form of a taxi list corresponding to the driver's phone number.

The central server requests the telephone call between the customer and the taxi driver by transmitting the telephone number of the taxi driver who is requested to make a telephone call from the client terminal to the mobile communication service system.

In this way, a telephone call is connected between the customer and the taxi driver, and the taxi ride is made by designating an appropriate location between the taxi driver and the taxi driver.

In this case, when the customer boards the taxi, it is necessary to update the customer information and the driver information stored in the storage device.

That is, the customer should no longer include information on the state of requesting a taxi, and the driver should no longer contain information that his taxi is in a tolerated state.

The following methods can be applied to update the information stored about the customer and the driver.

In the first method, the central server moves all the information corresponding to the 'DNUM' information (ie, the driver's telephone number information) transmitted to the customer terminal to the 'temporary driver information D / B'.

The D / B table structure included in the 'temporary driver information D / B' is also the same as the D / B table structure described above with reference to FIG. 3, but is applied for the purpose of temporary use.

After a predetermined time (for example, 10 minutes), the central server requests the first and second mobile communication service systems to query the location information of the customer terminal and the driver terminal.

Then, using the location information of the customer terminal and the driver terminal received from the first and second mobile communication service system, if the two do not match, it is considered that the customer did not board the driver's taxi (currently applicable The taxi is tolerant), and the driver's phone number is included in the list of available taxis, and if the two match, the driver's phone number is deleted because the customer has boarded the driver's taxi.

And, similar to the above-described method, but in the second method, the central server sends only the information corresponding to the driver's 'DNUM' information (that is, the driver's phone number information) requested by the customer terminal to the 'temporary driver information D / B'. Move it.

In the first method described above, all drivers included in the list of available taxis had to enter a password so that the central server could view their location information. In the second method, only the driver who made a phone call with the customer has a password. Just type

Thereafter, after the trip using the customer's taxi is ended, the central server requests the customer terminal to evaluate the satisfaction of the trip using the corresponding taxi.

When the central server receives a location registration request indicating that the customer is in a tolerance state (see FIG. 2) as a way of checking whether or not the customer has traveled by taxi, the central server recognizes that the travel has ended or is generally required for travel. The method of calculating and recognizing time can be applied.

The number displayed on the screen 760 of FIG. 7 described above is updated by using the satisfaction evaluation received from the customer.

In addition, if the customer does not receive a satisfaction evaluation for a certain period of time (for example, 30 minutes), the customer is recognized as having a threat, and actions to automatically protect the customer's personality (for example, Report to the police station that corresponds to the customer's location, or notify a safety protection agency, such as CAPS.

The matters described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 7 have been described in the case where a GPS system is not configured in a customer terminal or a driver terminal, and the location of the customer and the driver is detected through a mobile communication service system.

However, if there is a GPS system in a customer terminal or a driver terminal, the location information can be directly received from the corresponding terminal even without receiving the location information from the mobile communication service system. Applicable

Of course, even when the GPS system is configured in the corresponding terminal, a method of detecting more accurate location information through mutual correction with the mobile communication service system may also be applied.

8 is a flowchart illustrating a step in which a passenger enters a destination for boarding a vehicle according to another preferred embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 9 is a diagram for a passenger in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the present invention for boarding a vehicle. It is an illustration of the screen display which shows the step of inputting a destination.

In describing the flowchart illustrated in FIG. 8, an exemplary diagram of the screen display of FIG. 9 will be described together for convenience of understanding, and the D / B table structure used here is also described with reference to FIG. 6. same.

Referring to FIG. 8, in step 810, the central server receives a connection request from a passenger terminal (hereinafter referred to as a customer terminal).

Step 810 is a step in which the customer connects to the central server using the customer terminal, which is the same as the screen 910 illustrated in FIG. 9.

In step 820, the central server transmits a customer password input request to the customer terminal, and in step 830, the customer password entered by the customer (e.g., social security number, mobile phone number, and secret granted from the mobile communication service system). Number, etc.).

Steps 820 and 830 are steps of accessing the central server using the customer terminal and inputting the customer password at the request of the central server, as shown in screen 920 of FIG. 9.

In step 840, the central server is a customer who can use the passenger / cargo optimization system using the customer access information including the customer password (i.e. password) received in step 830 and the telephone number of the customer terminal used by the customer. Examine whether or not.

If the result of the check in step 840 is that the customer connection information is not valid, proceed to step 850 and the password is incorrect. Please input again "error message to the customer terminal, and proceeds to step 820 again.

Further, if the access information of the customer is valid as a result of the check in step 840, the flow proceeds to step 860.

In step 860, the central server transmits at least one selection item selectable by the customer to the customer terminal, and receives selection information on the specific item from the customer terminal.

Step 860 is a step of transmitting a plurality of selection items that the customer can select for use of the passenger / cargo transportation optimization system to the customer terminal and receiving the selected item information, which are the screens 930 to 940 illustrated in FIG. 9.

Referring to FIG. 9, in this case, the customer first selects a 'cab search' item (screen 930) and then selects a 'destination input' item (screen 940).

Referring back to FIG. 8, in step 870 the central server checks whether destination information is received from the customer terminal.

The screen display displayed on the customer terminal display unit in step 870 is the same as the screen 950 of FIG. 9.

Referring to FIG. 9, using a screen display input as shown in screen 950, a customer inputs and transmits a desired destination (for example, a central zone).

Referring back to FIG. 8, if destination information is input from the customer terminal as a result of the check in step 870, the process proceeds to step 880 and stores the destination information in the storage device, otherwise the step ends.

If the customer has entered the destination information, the central server uses the customer's password and customer's phone number information received in steps 820 to 840 to query the customer's current location information (the customer's current location). The method of querying information is as described above), and generates and stores a customer list for each destination by using the location information of the customer.

After the customer inputs the desired destination by the above method, the result screen displayed on the customer terminal display unit is the same as the screen 960 of FIG. 9.

FIG. 10 is a flowchart illustrating a step in which a vehicle driver inquires a boarding request passenger according to another exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 11 is a diagram of a vehicle driver inquiring in a boarding request passenger according to another preferred embodiment of the present invention. It is an illustration of the screen display showing the step.

In describing the flowchart illustrated in FIG. 10, an exemplary diagram of the screen display of FIG. 11 will be described together for convenience of understanding, and the D / B table structure used here is also described with reference to FIG. 3. same.

Referring to FIG. 10, in operation 1010, the central server receives a connection request from a driver terminal.

Step 1010 is a step in which the taxi driver connects to the central server using the driver terminal, which is the same as the screen 1110 shown in FIG. 11.

In step 1020, the central server transmits a driver password input request to the driver terminal, and the driver password inputted by the driver in step 1030 (e.g., a social security number, a mobile phone number, and a secret granted from the mobile communication service system). Number, etc.).

Steps 1020 and 1030 are steps of accessing the central server using the driver terminal and inputting a driver password at the request of the central server, which is the same as the screen 1120 of FIG. 11.

In step 1040, the central server determines whether the driver can use the passenger / cargo transportation optimization system using the driver access information including the driver password (i.e., the password) received through step 1030 and the telephone number of the driver's terminal used by the driver. Examine whether or not.

If the result of the check in step 1040 is that the driver's connection information is not valid, proceed to step 1050 and the password is incorrect. Please input again ”error message to the driver terminal, and proceeds to step 1020 again.

In addition, if the driver connection information is valid as a result of the check in step 1040, the flow proceeds to step 1060.

In operation 1060, the central server transmits at least one selection item that can be selected by the driver to the driver terminal, and receives selection information about a specific item from the driver terminal.

In operation 1060, the driver transmits a plurality of selection items that the driver can select for use of the taxi driving optimization system to the driver terminal and receives the selected item information. The screens 1130 to 1140 illustrated in FIG. 11 are illustrated.

Referring to FIG. 11, in this case, the driver first selects a 'find guest' item (screen 1130) and then selects a 'find guest' item (screen 1140).

Referring back to FIG. 10, in step 1070 the central server checks whether a customer list transmission request is received from the driver terminal.

The screen display displayed on the driver terminal display for step 1070 is the same as the screen 1150 of FIG. 11.

Referring to FIG. 11, if the driver selects 'Yes' using the screen 1150, the driver requests the transmission of the corresponding customer list, and if the driver selects 'no', the transmission of the corresponding customer list is rejected.

Referring back to FIG. 10, if a request for transmitting a customer list is received from the driver terminal as a result of the inspection of step 1070, the process proceeds to step 1080 to retrieve the customer list stored in the storage device and transmits it to the customer terminal. End the step.

If the central server receives the request for transmitting the customer list from the driver terminal, the central server queries the driver's current location information by using the driver's password and the driver's phone number information received in steps 1020 through 1040. (The method of inquiring the current location information of the driver is the same as described above), and searches for the customer who requested the taxi ride among the customers located near the current location of the driver and transmits it to the driver terminal.

When the driver requests the customer list by the above method, the result screen displayed on the driver terminal display unit is the same as the screen 1160 of FIG. 11.

Referring to FIG. 11, screen 1160 includes a customer list that includes at least one customer phone number.

The customer list displayed on the driver terminal display unit may display a destination entered by the customer, or may not display the destination entered by the customer as shown in FIG.

In addition, the customer list displayed on the driver terminal display unit may be displayed, for example, in the form of '016-386-4017', and the call number of the driver may be conveniently displayed by displaying an identification number on each phone number. It may also be (as described above with reference to FIG. 5).

Of course, in addition to the information that may be output to the driver terminal display unit, the corresponding customer phone number may further include time information stored in the customer list.

In addition, although not shown in the flowchart of FIG. 10, the steps that can be performed later will be described.

The driver may request a phone call by selecting a specific phone number from at least one customer phone number displayed on the driver terminal display unit.

The central server transmits the telephone number of the customer who is requested to make a telephone call from the driver terminal to the mobile communication service system and requests a telephone call between the customer and the taxi driver.

In this way, a telephone call is connected between the customer and the taxi driver, and the taxi ride is made by designating an appropriate location between the taxi driver and the taxi driver.

In this case, when the customer boards the taxi, it is necessary to update the customer information and the driver information stored in the storage device, and the method and the subsequent steps of updating the information are as described above with reference to FIG. It will be omitted here.

8 to 11 have been described in the case that the GPS system is not configured in the customer terminal, the driver terminal, etc., the position of the customer and the driver is detected through the mobile communication service system.

However, if there is a GPS system in a customer terminal or a driver terminal, the location information can be directly received from the corresponding terminal even without receiving the location information from the mobile communication service system. Applicable

Of course, even when the GPS system is configured in the corresponding terminal, a method of detecting more accurate location information through mutual correction with the mobile communication service system may also be applied.

In addition, the method of determining whether the customer inputs the destination and the driver selects the corresponding customer through the destination entered by the customer may be applied by a method such as a car pool or a quick service.

Even when the present invention is applied to a carpool or quick service method, the above-described steps may be applied without the need for a separate step, and thus a separate description will be omitted.

Therefore, in the case of using the present invention for the purpose of a quick service, a quick service worker can secure a sufficient amount of quick service even if he / she pays a fee to a specific quick service company and does not become a member, and the customer uses the quick service. Next, the satisfaction of the quick service workers can be input, thereby forming a satisfactory relationship with each other.

In addition, in the case of carrying out the present invention for the purpose of the quick service, the location tracking on the Internet can be tracked by the continuous location inquiry for the quick service workers, and the SMS can be automatically sent during the transport or when the transport is completed.

In addition, when the present invention is used for a carpool, a passenger or a driver who desires a carpool may use the carpool together with a wide range of people even if there is no separate search through the Internet to search for a suitable carpool candidate. Can be implemented.

In addition, the present invention can be applied to the purpose of arranging the meeting (eg, meeting, meeting, blind date, etc.) of the young men and women.

That is, since the location information can be automatically detected by the central server as described above, if a specific meeting candidate (for example, a girder) enters only the gender and age instead of the destination information previously entered and registers, Other meeting candidates (for example, Gap-soon) located at can read the information through the terminal, and then have a meeting place if desired through a telephone call.

Of course, in this case, the method may further include a step of inputting an age group (for example, 24 to 26 years old, etc.) desired to be searched in order to optimally search for a desired meeting candidate among registered meeting candidates.

Hereinafter, a description will be given of a method for generating revenue by a central server operator and a mobile communication service provider in providing the present invention to users.

If a user (that is, a driver, a customer, a quick service worker, a meeting person, a carpooler, etc.) uses a taxi operation optimization system using a communication network according to the present invention using a mobile communication terminal or the like, the mobile communication service system is first used. You will be connected to a central server.

In this case, the mobile communication service provider may first collect a wireless Internet usage fee from the user.

In addition, in the case of applying the taxi operation optimization service using the communication network according to the present invention for a fee (for example, when the current call taxi call fee is set at about 1,000 won per case, the fee for use can be set at about 300 won), If the central server provides the desired service to the user, the service fee is included in the name of the additional information fee in the bill of bills sent to the user by the mobile service provider, and the additional service fee is charged by the mobile service provider. Will be collected.

Thereafter, the mobile operator distributes the collected additional information usage fee according to a predetermined ratio (for example, mobile service provider-100 won, central server operator-200 won, etc.), and then provides the cost to the central server operator. (For example, 200 won) pay.

At this time, the mobile communication service provider generates secondary revenue, and the central server operator also has a certain profit.

In addition, when making a phone call between the corresponding users, the mobile communication service provider generates third revenue.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and many variations are possible by those skilled in the art within the spirit of the present invention.

As described above, the present invention enables a taxi driver to ride a taxi within the shortest time by directly connecting a taxi operating with a tolerance and a passenger who wants to board, and a taxi driver may minimize a tolerance ratio.

In addition, the passengers who have completed the trip using the taxi are asked to take a ride satisfaction survey on the taxi, and the driver's reliability and customer response attitude are evaluated using the riding satisfaction received from the passenger, and the evaluated information is Can be provided to passengers.

In addition, by establishing a separate safety guarantee system, it is possible to ensure the safety of passengers traveling by taxi without being limited to time and place.

In addition, it can be applied to a logistics transport system, quick service, meeting arrangement, etc. by directly connecting customers and suppliers using a communication network.
