However, in the current trend that the range of the Internet is rapidly expanding and widening, it is difficult to know the excessive amount of information existing on the Internet and the timing of updating the information, and the amount of content and the fluidity of the information cause inconvenience to users.

The existing World Wide Web (WWW) is a pull system with the concept that a user pulls necessary information from a storage location (server). This means that the user connects to the web server through a web browser, pulls the linked page, downloads it, and drags it to his browser, so that the content can be viewed only after the user's request (mouse click). do.

On the other hand, Push is a concept that pushes information from the information side to the user side. In this way, the server does not wait for a request from the user each time, and when the information is prepared for the specific information requested by the user, Deliver it to the user.

In general, the process for a user to receive information with push technology is simple. First of all, the information providing server or channel receives information including personal information and information to be subscribed to, and in some cases, the user may set a scheduled time for transmitting the information. The server then collects the information appropriate for the profile requested by the user and sends it to the user.

This push technology provides convenient functions from the user's point of view, but there is no compatibility between push programs of companies that provide push technology, so each software is purchased separately in order to receive the service of the corresponding company. The burden arises.

In such a case, it may be a bit of an advanced push technology, and it is a kind of push technology that users receive related news or information through their e-mail address entered in the web server.

Recently, mobile operators have also pushed information such as news, news, stock prices, and weather to subscribers through short message services (SMS).

However, the information provided by the mobile operator and the content provider differs only according to the items requested by the subscribers, and since the information is sent to the plurality of subscribers who apply for one piece of information, the information is virtually different from the user's point of view. It was impossible to receive information services.

In addition, searching for desired information by accessing the wireless Internet through a wireless communication device has a disadvantage in that a user has to pay a large cost.

An object of the present invention to solve the above problems is to provide an SMS information providing menu that can be added to an existing menu of a wireless communication device, and to classify the provided information providing menu into detailed menus such as large category, medium category, and small category. The individual code is assigned to each detailed menu so that the web server can be recognized and the client who owns the wireless communication device can select the desired information through the sequential selection of the large, medium, and small categories of the SMS information providing menu. When a request is made in a short message service (SMS) and transmitted to the web server, the individual codes of the upper category selected by the client are inserted into the short text message data generated in the small category (final classification). And the web server to which the short text message is to be received can be transmitted more easily. And analyzing the short text message (SMS) data received by the web server to obtain a clue (individual code, text data, etc.) for the information desired by the client, and the contents of the information and the like. By conducting a search through interworking, the searched content (information desired by the client) is transmitted to the client using a short text message (SMS), so that a simple key operation is provided by providing SMS information menud to the corresponding wireless communication device. Only the client transmits to the short text message (SMS) through the sequential classification selection for the desired information, and to receive the searched information of the corresponding information through the short text message (SMS) to your wireless communication device and In providing a system.

The client 160 determines whether to use the SMS information providing menu of the wireless communication device owned by the client when the information to be obtained is generated (200) and corresponds to the information (information that the user wants to know). The classification menu belonging to the SMS information providing menu is sequentially selected (210). The classification menu is generally classified into a major classification, a middle classification, a small classification, and the like to narrow the categories of the corresponding categories step by step so that the client can input more conveniently and accurately. In addition, the classification menu may be subdivided for more accurate and detailed information retrieval.

When the final classification menu is reached through sequential selection of each classification menu (215), the client 160 simply inputs a search word or a key word for searching for information desired by the user (220) and performs the SMS information service. The SMS information is transmitted to the system 100 (225).

When the transmission is completed (230), the system 100 checks the message of the client 160 (235), if not transmitted (240) and sends a retransmission message to the client 160 (245). The system 100 analyzes the SMS data received from the wireless communication device of the client 160 to retrieve information desired by the client 160 and transmits the result to the wireless communication device of the client 160. 250.

3 is a view illustrating an SMS information service requested by the client 160 through an SMS information providing menu provided as a menu to a wireless communication device of the client 160 in terms of an SMS information providing system 100 that provides an SMS information service. A simple flow chart for a process of performing and completing a search for corresponding information and transmitting an SMS to the wireless communication device of the client 160 is performed.

Through the SMS information providing menu that can be provided to the wireless communication device (300), the client 160 applies for SMS information service and sequentially selects classification menus for the corresponding items (information desired by the client) and transmits them to the system 100. In step 305, the system 100 receives the SMS data from the client (310).

The system 100 checks whether the received SMS data is an input through the SMS information providing menu, and if the input is correct (315), the system 100 checks a classification menu code inserted in the SMS data and a search word input by the client ( 320). When the check is completed, the client 160 searches for desired information (335). If the search result exists (340), the search result is edited. If there is no search result (350), a re-search is requested (355).

When the information desired by the client 160 is acquired and edited through the above process (345), the system 100 transmits an SMS. Usually, the amount of data that can be transmitted at one time through the SMS is about 100 bytes. It is a sentence, when the search results are edited to be transmitted to the client 160 by SMS, the content of the contents in some cases may be large enough to be transmitted once via SMS.

The system 100 may check whether the search result exceeds the SMS capacity, and if it is impossible to transmit the result in one time (370), the search result may be appropriately divided (375) to transmit a plurality of times. (365). When the transmission is completed (380), the SMS information providing system 100 terminates the process and if the transmission is not completed (385) and re-transmits (390).

In this case, since the additional cost of the multiple SMS transmissions may be inevitable, the system 100 may notify the client of the multiple SMS transmissions when the search result is large, and reduce the cost according to the increasing number of transmissions. It is also stated that it may be possible to take additional measures.

4 is a simple flowchart illustrating a process of selecting and transmitting a corresponding SMS information providing menu from the viewpoint of a client 160 applying for an SMS information providing menu to know desired information through the SMS information providing menu.

In order to use the SMS information providing menu, a mode of a corresponding wireless communication device must be available for a call (400). When the client 160 is interested in obtaining information in the above state (405), the client 160 selects the SMS information providing menu of the wireless communication device (410).

The client 160 determines sequentially each classification menu (large classification> middle classification> small classification) including the interest in the SMS information providing menu (415). As the number of classified menus increases, the range of information desired by the client 160 is narrowed, so that more accurate services can be used, but the amount of menus included in the wireless communication device increases (data capacity increases). It is noted that both the client 160 and the service menu provider can set the number so that it is appropriate and reasonable.

When the final classification menu is reached through selection of sequential classification menus (420), the client 160 inputs a search word or a key word for the information so that the SMS information providing system 100 can easily search for desired information. In operation 440, SMS is transmitted to the system 100. When the transmission is completed (445), a transmission complete message is sent to the wireless communication device (450), and if the transmission is not completed (455), the system 100 determines whether the SMS input of the client 160 is correct. If the SMS input of the client 160 is correct (460), an SMS retransmission message is sent (465), and if the SMS input is not correct (470), the client is requested to rewrite the SMS (475).

5 is a simple exemplary diagram until the client 160 selects an SMS information provision menu provided as a menu on the wireless communication device of the client 160 for use.

The SMS information providing menu to be implemented in the present invention may be provided by default in the wireless communication device possessed by the client 160 or may be programmed and down, and the client 160 may set a phone number in the mobile phone menu. As you search, you can use the SMS information provision menu. Since the service is implemented through SMS (Short Message Service), the SMS information providing menu is appropriately included in the SMS menu of the wireless communication device.

Through the above process, the client 160 obtains the phone number of the 'XX marriage information company' from the SMS information providing system 100 through SMS.

8 is a classification of the data packet corresponding to the classification menu sequentially selected by the client 160 through the SMS information provision menu provided to the wireless communication device of the client 160, finally selected by the client 160. ) Is a simple configuration diagram of the SMS data packet to be transmitted when the SMS is transmitted to the SMS information providing system 100.

Data and other information transmitted through a kind of network are collectively called a packet, and SMS transmission and reception can also be regarded as the flow of data packets. In general, a packet is composed of a header, data, and a taylor. In the present invention, a header part capable of inserting a unique identification code of each item of an SMS information providing menu is described.

The header usually records the address where the data is to be delivered or the order of each packet. In the case of the SMS data packet, the channel information, the calling number, the menu code and the receiving number can be recorded.

The channel information includes a record of a paging channel, a traffic channel, an access channel, etc. adopted by the mobile communication system 100, and the caller number is a client who wants to use the SMS information service. The subscriber number of 160 is recorded, and a unique individual identification code indicated by each item selected by the client 160 is recorded in the menu code. The SMS information providing system 100 may identify individual items selected by the client 160 by reading the individual identification code of the SMS data transmitted by the client 160 through the SMS information providing menu.

In this figure, the data packet of each classification (large classification, medium classification, small classification) menu that the client 160 can select sequentially is shown. Each classification menu exists in the form of the corresponding data packet and is transmitted to the next process. Becomes For example, when the client 160 selects a specific item from the large classification menu, the middle classification menu is displayed accordingly, wherein the large classification menu unique identification code present in the header portion of the data packet generated by the large classification menu is the middle classification menu. The header of the data packet is stored along with the middle classification menu unique identification code to proceed to the next process.

When the client 160 selects from the large category menu to the small category menu (the final category menu) for SMS transmission as described above, all unique identification codes of each selected category menu are stored in the small category menu data packet. To be transmitted to the system 100.

The system 100 receives the SMS data transmitted from the wireless communication device of the client 160, reads a unique identification code of each classification menu included in the header portion of the SMS data packet, and corresponds to a corresponding item indicated by each code. Will be recognized.

9 is a simple pattern to complete the format creation by transmitting a pattern of the SMS information providing menu by regularly patterning the client 160 collectively inputting a plurality of search terms for desired information by inserting a division (or identification) mark. Illustrative illustration.

Unlike the method of recognizing the unique codes of the respective classification menus, the figure provides the searched information to the client based on the message contents input by the client 160.

If the client 160 wants to know the contents of the movie 'Snazzy' through the SMS information providing menu, the client 160 does not select a classification menu classified into major classification, middle classification, and small classification, When the words `movie`,` content`, and `sassy bizarre` are distinguished by using identification marks and the like, as shown in the drawing, and then transmitted, the SMS information providing system 100 is inputted by the client 160. Each word is recognized and combined to perform an end search, and the searched results are transmitted to the wireless communication device of the client 160 through SMS.
