The present invention intends to provide a suitable method in each case to control a wired or wireless telephone by computer serial communication such as RS-232, RS-485, USB.

Specifically, the present invention relates to a wired or wireless telephone controlled by computer serial communication when connected to a desktop or notebook computer, and all possible functions of the telephone can be implemented and controlled by software of the computer.

Description

Wired or cordless phone controlled by computer serial communication {Corded or Cordless Phone controlled by Computer Serial Communication}

Computer peripherals include mice, joysticks, and keyboards.

On the other hand, it is a matter of course that the list of peripherals includes an (external) modem, but in general, a conventional wired or wireless telephone cannot be regarded as a peripheral of a computer.

However, according to the utility model application 1998-0028150 of the present applicant, the computer built-in radio receiving card with a telephone unit, and the computer built-in multifunction telephone card with a DMT tone decoder of the utility model application 1999-0016842 It is possible to implement and control all possible functions using the software of the computer.

For example, in the case of using the hyperdial key according to the invention patent application 1999-0046568 of the present invention, the method of implementing and applying the automatic dialing using the phone number described in the electronic document, all electronic documents, for example, DOC, HTML, etc. Depending on the phone number listed, you can simply make a phone call.

In other words, unlike conventional telephones, the telephone card is closely associated with a computer.

Currently, serial communication methods such as RS-232, RS-485, and USB are widely known. For example, USB is an industry standard for interfacing peripheral devices such as a mouse, joystick, and keyboard with a computer.

By the way, for example, in the case of the external modem using the USB, a USB modem with a built-in telephone is commercially available, but the relationship between the wired telephone and the USB modem is merely combined in design and mechanical aspects.

On the other hand, the phone card is designed for a desktop computer and has a disadvantage that cannot be applied to a notebook computer.

Furthermore, the telephone card corresponds to a landline telephone, and in the case of a cordless telephone, the interface with the computer has not been seriously considered yet, which is a problem of the stereotype of the telephone.

Accordingly, in view of some fundamental problems as described above, the present invention intends to provide a suitable method in each case to control a wired or wireless telephone by computer serial communication such as RS-232, RS-485, USB.

Specifically, the present invention relates to a wired or wireless telephone controlled by computer serial communication when connected to a desktop or notebook computer, and all possible functions of the telephone can be implemented and controlled by software of the computer.

1 is a block diagram of a wireless telephone controlled by computer serial communication according to the present invention.

2 is a block diagram of a wireline telephone controlled by computer serial communication according to the present invention.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram of a wireless telephone controlled by computer serial communication according to the present invention. In a trunk line L1 and L2, a ring signal detection unit 2 for ring signal detection and a speech network 3 for impedance matching are provided. It is connected.

On the other hand, the speech network 3 is connected to a DTMF tone encoder 4 for DTMF tone dialing and a base module 5 for RF transmission and reception.

Of course, the ring signal detection unit 2, the speech network 3, the DTMF tone encoder 4, and the base module 5 include a microcomputer communication block including a computer serial communication block that is a control path by a desktop or notebook computer. 6) is connected.

Further, when the ID of the base module 5 is the same, there is a handset 7 which forms a wireless link with the base module 5 under the control of the microcomputer 6.

Accordingly, according to the present invention having the above configuration, it is possible to implement and control all functions of the wireless telephone by the software of the desktop or notebook computer.

2 is a block diagram of a wireline telephone controlled by computer serial communication according to the present invention. In the trunk lines L1 and L2, a ring signal detection unit 2 for ring signal detection and a speech network 3 for impedance matching are provided. It is connected.

On the other hand, the speech network 3 is connected with a DTMF tone encoder 4 for DTMF tone dialing and a hand-free ear microphone 5 instead of a conventional handset.

Of course, the ring signal detection unit 2, the speech network 3, the DTMF tone encoder 4, and the handfree ear microphone 5 include a computer serial communication block that is a control path by a desktop or notebook computer. The microcomputer 6 is connected.

Therefore, FIG. 2 (wired type) is capable of implementing and controlling all functions of the phone by the core of the present invention, namely, the software of a desktop or notebook computer, despite the difference in phone type compared to FIG. 1 (wireless type). Same for.

Unlike conventional telephones, wired or wireless telephones controlled by computer serial communication implement and control all the functions of the telephone using the software of the computer. The continuous upgrade allows users to actively accept opinions or diversity. It is possible.

On the other hand, according to the advantages and disadvantages of the (wireless) hand-free ear microphone or the (wireless) handset, it is the user's responsibility, but the wired or wireless telephone controlled by computer serial communication according to the present invention Overcoming the drawback that telephone cards are dedicated to desktop computers allows access to notebook computers.
