2 is a schematic diagram of an Internet service system showing an Internet service user registration and information change method using a mobile communication terminal according to the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a view showing an Internet service user registration and information change method using a mobile communication terminal according to the present invention. It is a flow chart.

2 and 3, first, a user transmits an Internet address of an internet service to be registered to an SMSC through a short message of a mobile communication terminal 201 (step 301).

That is, when a user transmits a short message by inputting an Internet address to a mobile station (MS) 201, the user receives the short message from a base station (BS) 202 and receives a short message from the control station (MSC). Center) (203). The control station 203 receiving the short message transmits to the SMSC 204 through the SS7 (Signaling System No. 7) network.

Then, the transmitted Internet address is transmitted to the personal identification information registration system 206 provided separately for managing the personal identification information of the user in the SMSC 204 (step 302).

At this time, although the personal identification information registration system 206 and the SMSC 204 may be directly connected, an external interface of the SMSC 204 may be used to perform troubleshooting and traffic control functions of the SMSC 204. It is preferable to be connected through an External Short Message Entity Agent (ESME agent) 205 which serves as an interface. In other words, the transmitted Internet address is sent from the SMSC 204 to the ESME agent 205, which in turn continues to send the Internet address to the personal identification information registration system 206.

On the other hand, the personal identification information registration system 206, which manages personal identification information of the user, encrypts the personal identification information of the user who has transmitted the Internet address and provides a server computer of a company that provides the Internet service of the transmitted Internet address ( 102a to 102c) (step 303).

Among the user information managed at 206, personal information of the user who has transmitted the Internet address is encrypted for security and transmitted to the server computers 102a to 102c.

When the personal information is transmitted to the server computers 102a to 102c, the server computers 102a to 102c perform user registration and information change according to the transmitted user personal information (step 304).

In this case, when the personal information is changed, the personal identification information may be updated at the same time by performing the above process for all service providers registered in the user list.

In the Internet service user registration and information change method using the mobile communication terminal according to the present invention as described above, since the personal identification information registration system 206 manages the personal identification information of the user, unlike the conventional method, the user can subscribe to the new service. There is no need to create new personal information each time, and when changing personal personal information only by changing the personal personal information of the personal personal information registration system 206, the user information of all services to which the user subscribes can be automatically changed. have.

In addition, the present invention may be implemented by applying the personal identification information registration system 206 to a short message system provided by a conventional mobile communication system, as described above, or a service to which the present invention is applied, that is, an Internet service using mobile communication. It can also be implemented through new operators that provide services of user registration and information change.
