Description

Method and System for Displaying Moving Image Set by Sender on Receiver Mobile Phone}

The present invention relates to a method and system for displaying a video set by a caller on a called terminal. More specifically, when a caller attempts to make a call to the called mobile terminal, video data set by the calling mobile terminal is transmitted in real time to the called mobile terminal through the mobile communication network until the called party answers the call or afterwards. The present invention relates to a caller setting video display service method and system for displaying video data.

Recently, in the case of a mobile terminal, a ring back tone (RBT) service or a so-called coloring RBT (CRBT: Coloring RBT) that allows the called party to hear various sounds designated by the called party as a call waiting tone from the other party's mobile terminal or a general telephone. ) The service is in the spotlight. The call waiting sound service is a service concept that provides the caller with a ring tone designated by the called party. Instead of a mechanical call waiting sound generated during an existing call, for example, "following" sound, the latest song or pop song, as well as the sound of birds, water, etc. In addition, it is a service that allows you to use your own voice that you have recorded beforehand as a call waiting sound.

1 is a configuration diagram schematically showing a configuration of a mobile communication system providing a conventional coloring service.

The conventional mobile communication system 100 has a configuration including a mobile terminal 110, a wireless base station 120, a mobile communication switching center 130, a coloring server 140, a coloring database 142 and the like.

The mobile terminal 110 is a terminal for selecting and setting a type of a ring tone to be heard by the other party by accessing the coloring server 140 through a mobile communication network. In this case, the mobile terminal 110 may set one of the latest songs, pop songs, and sounds of nature as the type of the ringtone, or record one's voice and provide the recorded sound.

Wireless base station 120 includes a base station transmitter 122 and a base station controller 124.

A base transceiver station (BTS) 122 receives a call request signal from the mobile terminal 110 through a traffic channel of a signal channel and transmits the received call request signal to the base station controller 124. . In addition, the base station transmitter 122 is a network endpoint device that is wirelessly connected to the mobile terminal 110 by performing baseband signal processing, wired / wireless conversion, and transmission and reception of wireless signals.

A base station controller (BSC) 124 controls the base station transmitter 122, and allocates and releases radio channels for the mobile terminal 110, and controls transmission outputs of the mobile terminal 110 and the base station transmitter 122. Soft handoff and hard handoff decisions, transcoding and vocoding, global positioning system (GPS) clock distribution, and operation and maintenance capabilities for base stations. To perform. The base station controller 124 transmits the call request signal received through the base station transmitter 122 to the mobile communication switching station 130.

The mobile switching center 130 performs basic and additional service processing, incoming and outgoing call processing of a subscriber, location registration procedure and handoff procedure, and interworking with other networks.

The coloring server 140 provides a menu for coloring service when the mobile terminal 110 connects, and stores the ring tone information set by the mobile terminal 110 in the coloring database 142. The coloring database 142 not only stores a plurality of ringtone data, but also stores ringtone information set by the mobile terminal 110 as data.

In the conventional mobile communication system 100 configured as described above, the user manipulates the mobile terminal 110 to connect to the coloring server 140 and selects a ring tone to be heard by the counterpart from a plurality of ring tones provided by the coloring server 140. Will be set. The coloring server 140 stores the ring tone information set by the mobile terminal 110 in the coloring database 142.

Subsequently, when the mobile terminal 110 makes a call from another mobile terminal or a wired telephone, the mobile communication exchange station 130 establishes a connection path to the coloring server 140, and the coloring server 140 mobile communication. Until the mobile terminal 110 receives a call to another mobile terminal or a landline phone that has called through the switching center 130, the ring tone set by the mobile terminal 110 is transmitted as a call waiting sound.

As the call waiting sound service, such as a song or pop song set by the called party's mobile terminal 110, is provided to the caller, the other party hears the sound of the sound source designated by the called party instead of listening to the uniform and mechanical call waiting sound. I can feel it.

However, the coloring call waiting sound service provides only the caller with an auditory satisfaction, and the called party hears only the ring tone set at the time of manufacturing the terminal or the ring tone set by the caller. For example, the called party selects a specific ringtone from a limited ringtone originally stored in his or her mobile terminal, or downloads a specific ringtone from a mobile operator server to his mobile terminal by using a computer or a mobile terminal. You can only change the ringtone. However, even if the called party changes the phone ringtone, there is a disadvantage in that only the changed one ringtone can be heard.

On the other hand, with the advancement of mobile communication terminal technology and the high speed of communication network, it is possible to provide various additional services according to the smooth transmission of ringtones or video files of relatively large capacity between mobile communication terminals. As a result, people are increasingly demanding services that can represent themselves differently from others, and the call waiting service described above can be said to be a product of such a desire for discrimination. For example, if the call waiting sound service is a service that differentiates one caller from other callers, a service that differentiates a particular caller from other callers is not provided.

Of course, in a communication service using a mobile communication terminal, a caller identification display (CID) service is provided in which a called party can confirm a caller's telephone number. However, the caller information display service only allows the called party to confirm the caller, and thus, checks pranks, prevents obscene and violent calls, checks incoming calls, and does not differentiate the caller from other callers.

Therefore, there is a demand for a caller providing service that can discriminate a particular caller from other callers and at the same time recognize the called party more efficiently and give hearing and visual pleasure.

In order to meet the above-described demands, the present invention provides a method in which a called party responds to a call by transmitting video data set by the calling mobile terminal to the called mobile terminal in real time through a mobile communication network when the caller performs a call presentation to the called mobile terminal. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method and system for setting a caller setting video display service for displaying video data until or after that time.

6 is a flowchart illustrating a video service providing process according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

A call attempt is generated when the telephone number of the called mobile terminal 212 is input or selected to the calling mobile terminal 210 having the video transmission function (S600).

When the call attempt is requested by the caller, the calling mobile terminal 210 sets up a call path by requesting a call setup with the called mobile terminal 212 through the mobile communication network (S602).

When the setting of the call with the incoming mobile terminal 212 is completed, the microprocessor (not shown) built in the calling mobile terminal 210 determines whether the calling mobile terminal 210 is set to the video transmission mode (S604).

If it is determined that the calling mobile terminal 210 is set to the video transmission mode, the microprocessor searches for a memory device in which the video data is stored and reads the video data set as the video to be transmitted (S606).

The microprocessor transfers the read video data to a streaming conversion device (not shown) that performs a streaming conversion function (S608).

The streaming conversion apparatus converts the received video data into streaming data, and the microprocessor transmits the converted streaming data to the propagation space (S610).

The video data transmitted from the originating mobile terminal 210 is transmitted to the terminating mobile terminal 212 through the mobile communication network, and the terminating mobile terminal 212 starts to play the received video data.

The microprocessor of the incoming mobile terminal 212 playing the video checks whether a key value or a signal related to a call connection is input. Here, the input of a signal related to a call connection means that the flip is opened in the case of a flip-type terminal and the call is connected. In the case of a folder-type terminal, the folded caller and the receiver are fixed. It goes beyond the interval, meaning the call is connected.

When it is determined that a key value or a signal related to a call connection is input, the microprocessor of the called mobile terminal 212 generates a call connection signal and transmits it to the calling mobile terminal 210 through the mobile communication network.

The calling mobile terminal 210 determines whether a call connection signal has been received from the incoming mobile terminal 212 through the mobile communication network (S612), and when the call connection signal is received, the microprocessor of the calling mobile terminal 210 determines the video data. The transmission is stopped (S614).
