Broadcast transmission method of mobile communication terminal {MESSAGE MULTI-TRANSMISSION METHOD FOR MOBILE COMMUNICATION TERMINAL}

The present invention relates to a broadcast transmission method of a mobile communication terminal, and in particular, by inserting the contents corresponding to the transmission target using the macro setting function on the same message and then automatically transmitting a personalized message to enhance the intimacy of the transmission message. The present invention relates to a broadcast transmission method of a mobile communication terminal.

As the use of mobile communication terminals is becoming more common, the necessity of information transmission using a mobile terminal is gradually increasing. In particular, the broadcast transmission function of a short message service (SMS) or a long message service (LMS), which can deliver the same information to multiple users at the same time, is more convenient and useful due to various user interface improvements. In particular, when the mobile phone terminal stores a phone book function for storing contact information, the group management function, which has emerged, is enhanced, and a message can be sent to all members of a group by designating a group and then sending a message. Therefore, it is easy to deliver information to a large number of users without the trouble of inputting or retrieving phone numbers to be delivered. In addition, as the group management function is more actively and complexly improved (cross grouping, selective grouping, etc.), the application flexibility is increased, and more users are using the broadcast transmission of short or long messages.

However, although the broadcast transmission of a conventionally used message has been improved in various ways of inputting telephone numbers of a target to be transmitted, the inconvenience of directly inputting or selecting one by one is reduced, but the contents of the message to be transmitted are the same. I was forced to send.

Although the function of inserting headers, footers, or signatures has recently been proposed, this is only a batch of contents added, or an individual pre-written message can be inserted manually after selecting a destination. It was difficult to use conveniently. If a user wants to send a message that contains personal information about the person to whom to send it, the only option is to save the basic message and then edit the contents one by one.

1 is a conceptual diagram illustrating an example of a conventional broadcast transmission method, and the characteristics thereof will be described.

First, when a user wants to send a broadcast and enters a menu for message transmission, a screen for inputting transmission target telephone numbers as shown in FIG. In some cases, the telephone number of the target to be transmitted is directly input, but the input can be automatically performed by selecting the targets or group of targets in the pre-stored telephone directory. In this case, select a group of 30 people to send a message to all employees in the company.

1B is a screen for inputting or editing a message to be transmitted, and a user directly inputs a message or selects a message previously input. Note that the user must write the message, considering that the same message will be sent for all recipients (called phone numbers). Therefore, the contents of the message can only list a generic name or a simple fact so that all the recipients can receive and understand. In the illustrated example, you can only use the generic words "group affiliated" or "your department". This gives the impression that the message sent to the receiver is a sincere message delivered through broadcast transmission, which weakens the attention or concentration of the message and causes confusion by using ambiguous words.

FIG. 1 (c) shows a method of transmitting a message written as shown in (b) to the selected recipients, and shows that the same message is repeatedly transmitted. In general, in order to broadcast a short message or a long message, a message is set up each time according to each sender rather than a single call setup. The process of sending a message to a message center (short message service center, long message service center, etc.) and delivering it to the corresponding sender and terminating the call connection must be repeated as many as the sender. In other words, it is noted that the same message is transmitted repeatedly for each sender.

In summary, the conventional broadcast transmission method is to repeatedly transmit the same message to a plurality of destination telephone numbers through individual call setup. Although there are many ways to collectively set up the recipients' phone numbers in various ways, personalized messages for the recipients cannot be automatically generated and transmitted, which lowers the interest and effect of the messages.

As described above, the broadcast transmission method of the conventional mobile communication terminal has a problem in that the contents are unclear and the receivers are less interested in the message because the common message is transmitted to the transmission targets to receive the message. Even if the function is used, there is a problem in that it is not possible to automatically include personal information about the transmission targets.

In view of the above problems, the present invention enables macro definition of personal information stored in the phone book, and makes a message including the macro defined above to be used for broadcast transmission. It is an object of the present invention to provide a broadcast transmission method of a mobile communication terminal, which transmits a personalized message automatically inserted into a broadcast destination to individual broadcast transmission targets, thereby accurately informing and increasing concentration.

The present invention for achieving the above object comprises the steps of: entering a broadcast transmission menu; Selecting transmission targets based on a phone book in which personal information including a phone number and a name is stored; Setting a macro corresponding to the personal information; Composing or selecting a message including the set macro to initiate broadcast transmission; And sequentially generating a message for all transmission targets by generating and transmitting a message for acquiring and replacing transmission target personal information corresponding to a macro of the message when the message is transmitted to each transmission target.

Macro defining personal information in the phone book where personal information including a phone number and name is stored; When a message composed of the defined macro is broadcasted to a plurality of telephone numbers stored in the phone book, the macro of the created message for each telephone number is replaced with macro set information among the personal information of the subject identified by the corresponding telephone number. Characterized in that it comprises the step of transmitting.

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

2 is a conceptual diagram showing an operation procedure of an embodiment of the present invention, and is shown using screen display contents. In order to show the basic broadcast transmission process of the present invention, as shown in FIG.

The biggest feature of the present invention is to define a macro of personal information, create a message incorporating the macro to perform a broadcast transmission, and instead of the macro included in the macro defined information among the personal information for the telephone number to be transmitted To insert and send. The basic condition for defining and using these macros is that the user should store personal information on the phonebook in advance in the phone book. For this purpose, in addition to storing the contents individually, users can easily solve the problem by storing personal information files created on the personal computer in the phone book by using the communication with the personal computer using the communication port, which is recently used. Note that there is.

First, let's look at the operation method of the present invention through the illustrated example. It is assumed that a user stores personal information (affiliation, title, relationship, group belonging, etc.) including phone numbers and names of the recipients to which a message is to be transmitted, and sets them as predetermined groups.

First, the user can define a macro by using an interface or menu as shown in (a), but once set, the effect can be maintained continuously, so it is not necessary to set it every time of broadcast transmission. Here, personal information existing in the phone book is associated with a plurality of macro numbers. In the illustrated case, Macro 1 is defined as "Name", Macro 2 is defined as "Own", and Macro 3 is defined as "Number". Of course, in addition to this, various personal information may be defined corresponding to a predetermined macro number.

Subsequently, when entering the message transmission menu for broadcast transmission, a screen for inputting telephone numbers of general broadcast transmission targets appears as shown in (b). In this case, the user can enter the phone numbers manually, but in most cases, the contents stored in the phone book are selected and set by searching. In the case of broadcast transmission for a preset group, when the group is selected, the group is automatically entered. The telephone numbers of all the senders belonging to it are entered.

In this case, a preset group is selected as shown in (c) to automatically input telephone numbers for 30 company employees into the telephone number list for broadcasting.

Then, as shown in (d), include macros "macro 1" or "macro 2" in the middle of the message. You can, of course, write directly as text, use special symbols, or use automatic insertion through menu key settings. In addition, the message may be directly written, but note that a pre-written memo may be used.

Now, if the broadcast is performed for each of the transmitting telephone numbers, the independent message transmission is repeated 30 times. This has already been described through the prior art, and even in the case of using broadcast transmission, the process of substantially transmitting one message must be repeated by the number of broadcast transmission targets. Therefore, the message must be repeatedly transmitted each time. In this case, the present invention automatically generates an actual delivery message in which personal information defined in place of the macro included in the message is generated according to each destination telephone number, and then delivers it to the corresponding destination. .

In this case, when the broadcast transmission is started, the message transmission for "011-252-8754" which is located at the beginning of the sender list is performed. The personal information of the corresponding phone number is recorded in the "name" defined as Macro1. The contents are inserted in place of "macro 1" in the message, and the contents recorded in "belonging" defined as macro 2 are inserted in place of "macro 2" in the message to form a message containing personal information such as (e). Thereafter, the call connection is terminated after transmitting the personal message generated as described above to the mobile communication terminal having the telephone number through the call connection with the base station.

Then, to send a message for "018-755-4865" located in the second part of the sender list, a personal message is generated as shown in (f) using the personal information set for the telephone number, and then the message for the telephone number. Perform the transfer.

In this way, all messages for 30 persons included in the sender list for broadcast transmission can be sequentially generated and transmitted.

In this case, the user may not record the personal information in the process of inputting the information on the subjects to which the user wants to perform broadcast transmission in the phone book. Therefore, note that basic information can be entered by the user or defined by the manufacturer for use in this case. For example, in the case of FIG. 2, basic information about "name" of personal information may be set to comprehensive contents such as "anybody", "employee", "LG person", and "department" in case of "department" It can be set to comprehensive contents such as "," group ". This makes it possible to send a message to the sender whose personal information is not recorded. The personalized message is sent only to those who have the corresponding personal information.

Therefore, when the macro function of the present invention is applied to the broadcast transmission, the personalized friendly message is transmitted, thereby increasing the concentration of the receiver, thereby increasing the success rate of the message delivery, and the receiver can feel that he or she is respected.

As described above, the broadcast transmission method of the mobile communication terminal according to the present invention stores personal information on a transmission target in a phone book, defines the macro in the personal information, and then composes a message including the defined macro to broadcast transmission. When the broadcast is sent, the personal information of the sender's phone number is inserted into the message instead of the macro to create and deliver a personalized message. Since the message includes personal information according to the target person, the concentration of the message is improved and the accuracy of the message is also improved.
