Abstract

PURPOSE: A position alarm service method in a cellular phone is provided to generate an alarm when the cellular phone is in an inputted area in the case of being moved by a subway or a bus by setting an area in which a user wants to alarm a position by using an ID of an area-classified base station. CONSTITUTION: A user inputs a desired position through a UI(User Interface)(S11). Position information inputted through the UI is received as a tree structure, and the received position information is converted into an intrinsic ID of the area for storing and maintaining an input value(S12). A base station ID received from a base station is compared with the intrinsic ID as to the area inputted by the user, and it is continuously judged whether the base station ID is identical to a position value inputted by the user(S13). If the base station ID is identical to the intrinsic ID of the area inputted by the user, a cellular phone generates an alarm(S14).

휴대폰의 위치 알람 서비스방법{Service method for location indication with alarm in cellular phone}Service method for location indication with alarm in cellular phone}

본 발명은 휴대폰의 서비스방법에 관한 것으로서, 보다 상세하게는 사용자가 원하는 위치에 도착하게 되면 알람으로 알려 줄 수 있도록 한 휴대폰의 위치 알람 서비스방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a service method of a mobile phone, and more particularly, to a location alarm service method of a mobile phone to be notified by an alarm when the user arrives at a desired location.

일반적으로, 휴대폰은 휴대가 용이하도록 소형화하여 기지국의 전파발사거리이내에서는 장소 및 거리에 제한받지 않고 상대방과의 통화 또는 데이터교환이 가능한 무선통신기기의 하나이다. 요사이 산업발달과 더불어 정보화사회를 추구하고 있는 시점에서 중요한 개인용 통신수단의 하나로서 그 보급이 계속적으로 확산되는 추세에 있다.In general, a mobile phone is one of the wireless communication devices that can be miniaturized to be easy to carry and are capable of making a call or exchanging data with a counterpart without being limited to a place and a distance within a radio emission distance of a base station. With the development of the Yosai industry and the pursuit of the information society, its spread as one of the important personal communication means continues to spread.

상기 휴대폰은 송수신 무선 주파수가 하나의 안테나를 통해 입출력되도록 하기 위해 듀플렉싱기능을 수행하는 듀플렉서와, 상기 듀플렉서를 통해 고주파 신호를 수신하고 저주파 신호로 변환처리하는 RF수신부와, 저주파의 송신할 신호를 고주파 신호로 변환처리하여 상기 듀플렉서에 제공하는 RF송신부와, 상기 RF송, 수신부와 연결되어 베이스 밴드 신호인 기저대역 신호를 처리하는 기저대역 신호 처리부와, 상기 처리부에서 제공되는 신호를 가청음성 신호로서 출력하는 스피커 등의 전자부품을 몸체(케이스)에 내장하여, 전화통화의 수행을 휴대중에 무선으로 하는 장치로 알려져 있다. 이러한 상기 휴대폰의 몸체 외부의 정면에는 도 1에 도시된 바와 같이, 액정 디스플레이부(1) 및 숫자 및 기능을 지지하는 각종 키로 구성된 키패드(2)가 통상 설치된다.The mobile phone includes a duplexer performing a duplexing function to transmit and receive a radio frequency through one antenna, an RF receiver for receiving a high frequency signal through the duplexer and converting the signal into a low frequency signal, and a low frequency signal to be transmitted. An RF transmitter which converts a high frequency signal to the duplexer and provides a baseband signal processor connected to the RF transmitter and receiver to process a baseband signal that is a baseband signal; and a signal provided by the processor as an audible audio signal. BACKGROUND ART An electronic component such as a speaker to be output is incorporated in a body (case), and a device for carrying out a telephone call is wirelessly known. As shown in FIG. 1, a keypad 2 composed of a liquid crystal display unit 1 and various keys for supporting numbers and functions is usually installed on the front surface of the outside of the body of the mobile phone.

한편, 상기와 같은 종래의 휴대폰에는 호출자로부터 전화가 걸려올 경우 사용자에게 착신을 알리는 기능이 다양하게 구비되어 있다. 이러한 착신 기능중에 전화벨을 이용한 것은 가장 일반적이고, 정숙한 분위기를 유지해야 하는 장소, 예컨대 도서관이나 실내 공연장등에서는 진동모드에 의한 수신감지 기능이 사용된다.On the other hand, the conventional mobile phone as described above is provided with a variety of functions to notify the user when the call from the caller. Among the incoming functions, a telephone ring is most commonly used, and a reception detection function using a vibration mode is used in a place where a quiet atmosphere should be maintained, such as a library or an indoor performance hall.

그리고, 상기 휴대폰에는 사용자가 원하는 시간에 잠에서 일어날 수 있도록경고음을 발생하거나 약속시간을 알리는 알람시계기능(모닝콜설정, 모닝콜해제, 알람설정, 알람해제, 알람멜로디)이 구비되어 있다.The mobile phone is provided with an alarm clock function (a wake-up call setting, a wake-up call release, an alarm setting, an alarm release, an alarm melody) to generate a warning sound or notify an appointment time so that the user can wake up at a desired time.

그러나, 휴대폰의 기능중 사용자가 원하는 목적지에 도달했을 경우 경고음을 발생하는 알람 기능이 없기 때문에, 사용자가 휴대폰을 소지한채 지하철이나 버스를 타고 이동중에 잠을 잘 경우 원하는 목적지를 지나치는 문제점이 있었다.However, since there is no alarm function that generates a warning sound when the user reaches the desired destination, the user has a problem passing the desired destination when the user sleeps on the subway or bus while holding the mobile phone.

따라서, 본 발명은 상기한 종래 기술에 따른 제반 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 제안된 것으로서, 본 발명의 목적은, 휴대폰의 지역별 기지국의 ID를 이용하여 사용자가 위치 알람을 원하는 지역을 셋팅(Setting)하면 지하철이나 버스로 이동할 경우에 입력한 지역이 되면 알람을 발생할 수 있도록 한 휴대폰의 위치 알람 서비스방법을 제공함에 있다.Accordingly, the present invention has been proposed to solve the above problems according to the prior art, an object of the present invention, by setting the area where the user wants a location alarm using the ID of the base station for each cell of the mobile phone (Subway) In the case of moving to a bus or bus, it provides a location alarm service method of a mobile phone so that an alarm can be generated when the area is entered.

상기한 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명에 따른 휴대폰의 위치 알람 서비스방법의 특징은, 제어부, 발광부, 진동부 및 유저 인터페이스를 구비한 휴대폰의 서비스방법에 있어서,A feature of the location alarm service method of a mobile phone according to the present invention for achieving the above object is, in the service method of a mobile phone having a control unit, a light emitting unit, a vibration unit and a user interface,

사용자가 원하는 위치를 유저 인터페이스(UI: User Interface)를 통해서 입력하는 단계와;Inputting a desired location through a user interface (UI);

상기 유저 인터페이스로 입력되는 위치 정보를 트리(Tree)구조로 입력받아 내부적으로 그 지역의 고유 ID로 전환하여 입력값을 저장유지하는 단계와;Receiving location information input to the user interface in a tree structure and internally converting the location information into a unique ID of the region to store the input value;

기지국으로부터 수신된 기지국 ID와 사용자가 선택 입력한 지역에 대한 고유 ID와 비교하여 사용자가 입력한 위치 값과 일치하는 지를 계속적으로 비교 판단하는 단계와;Continuously comparing and comparing a base station ID received from the base station with a unique ID for a region selected by the user and matching with a location value input by the user;

도 2는 본 발명에 따른 휴대폰의 위치 알람 서비스방법을 나타낸 흐름도이다.2 is a flowchart illustrating a method of a location alarm service of a mobile phone according to the present invention.

도 2에 도시된 바와 같이, 사용자가 원하는 위치(강북구, 송파구, 서초구)를 도 3에 도시된 바와 같이 유저 인터페이스(UI: User Interface)를 통해서 입력한다.As shown in FIG. 2, the user inputs a desired position (Gangbuk-gu, Songpa-gu, Seocho-gu) through a user interface (UI) as shown in FIG. 3.

이때, 상기 휴대폰은 입력되는 위치 정보를 트리(Tree)구조로 입력받아 내부적으로 그 지역의 고유 ID로 전환하여 입력값을 저장유지한다.In this case, the mobile phone receives the input location information in a tree structure and internally converts the location information into a unique ID of the area to store the input value.

그리고, 기지국으로부터 수신된 기지국 ID와 사용자가 선택 입력한 지역에 대한 고유 ID와 비교하여 사용자가 입력한 위치 값과 일치하는 지를 계속적으로 비교 판단한다.Then, the base station ID received from the base station is compared with the unique ID for the region selected and input by the user to continuously compare with the location value input by the user.

상기 비교 판단결과 기지국 ID와 사용자가 선택 입력한 지역의 고유 ID가 같으면 휴대폰의 제어부(미도시)가 진동부(미도시) 또는 발광부(미도시)를 구동시켜, 사용자가 원하는 위치에 도착되었음을 알린다.As a result of the comparison determination, if the base station ID and the unique ID of the region selected by the user are the same, the controller (not shown) of the mobile phone drives the vibrator (not shown) or the light emitting unit (not shown) to arrive at the desired location. Inform.

이상에서 상술한 바와 같이 본 발명은, 사용자가 지하철이나 버스등으로 이동 중 잠을 잘 경우, 원하는 위치에 도착하게 되면 휴대폰이 진동 및 경고음의 알람을 주어서 사용자가 목적지를 지나치지 않도록 함으로써 사용자에게 편의를 제공하는 효과가 있다.As described above, in the present invention, when the user sleeps while traveling by subway or bus, when the user arrives at a desired position, the mobile phone gives an alarm of vibration and a warning sound so that the user does not pass the destination, thereby providing convenience to the user. It is effective to provide.
