Include.

Looking at the function of each component of the portable memory device used in the present invention.

The wireless transceiver 201 transmits / receives a signal for establishing a wireless network connection with a wireless communication terminal, transmits key registration information related to game control when connecting to a wireless network, and controls and synchronization signals related to game execution. It plays a role of transmitting / receiving the radio with a wireless communication terminal.

The general-purpose port 204 is connected to the ports of the wireless communication terminal and the computer through the data transmission line to serve as a connection unit so that data and control signals can be transmitted and received.

The storage unit 202 stores an operation program and a system program of the operation / control unit 203. In particular, the storage unit 202 stores game program data and key registration information, and connects a network with a wireless communication terminal and a computer. It stores a protocol setting program that performs a series of processes related to synchronization setting and game execution through.

The operation / control unit 203 is responsible for the overall operation / control of the game execution device and the portable memory device used in the method by the network configuration between the computer, the wireless communication terminal and the portable memory device according to the present invention.

3 is a flowchart illustrating a game execution method in a wireless communication terminal in a game execution method by a network configuration between a computer, a wireless communication terminal, and a portable memory device according to the present invention.

First, a wired network connection and a wireless network connection are divided, and a network connection between a wireless communication terminal and a portable memory device is performed (301).

In the case of a wired connection, a wired network is established by connecting a data transmission line between the USB port of the wireless communication terminal and the USB port of the portable memory device (302).

In the case of a wireless connection, by executing the protocol setting program in the wireless communication terminal (304), transmitting the synchronization signal to the portable memory device (305), and receiving the synchronization signal from the portable memory device (306), the wireless communication A wireless network is constructed between the terminal and the portable memory device.

In this case, since a wireless network is required to transmit / receive a signal wirelessly, a physical layer for performing wireless communication between the wireless communication terminal and the portable memory device is set.

In addition, in the wired / wireless network configuration, when the wireless communication terminal and the portable memory device are connected in a one-to-one manner, there is no need to distinguish the users. Because it is ambiguous, users must be distinguished. To this end, a unique ID is registered for each wireless communication terminal, and an ID is inserted into the signal in transmitting / receiving a signal between the wireless communication terminal and the portable memory device, thereby distinguishing a user according to the ID of each wireless communication terminal. do.

For example, when a large number of users of the wireless communication terminal participate in the game, the user A registers the ID "PLAYER A" in the wireless communication terminal, and in the case of the user B, the ID "PLAYER B" is wirelessly communicated. By registering with the terminal and inserting and transmitting an ID to a signal transmitted / received with the portable memory device, the portable memory device and the computer receiving the signals from the portable memory device distinguish each user according to the ID. In addition, user identification using IDs is the same in a wired network and a wireless network. In particular, in a wireless network configuration, a code is assigned to each ID by dividing a radio channel by code similarly to a code division multiple access (CDMA) method.                     

Thereafter, the game mode signal for entering the game mode is transmitted to the portable memory device (307).

Prior to the description, it is assumed that game program data received from a computer is pre-stored in the portable memory device.

First, wired and wireless are distinguished from a wireless communication terminal, and a network connection is performed, and a wired network connection is performed with a computer (401).

Here, the portable memory device is located in the middle of the wireless communication terminal and the computer, transfers the signal received from the wireless communication terminal to the computer, and performs an intermediary role of transferring the signal received from the computer to the wireless communication terminal.

When the wireless communication terminal is connected by wire, a wired network is formed by connecting a data transmission line between the wireless communication terminal and the USB port of the computer and the USB port of the portable memory device (402).

Here, in addition to the USB port, a UART port, an IEEE1394 port, an RS-232 port, etc., which can configure a physical layer related to communication, can be used.

Of course, a wired network is formed by connecting a data transmission line between the USB port of the computer and the USB port of the portable memory device.

Thereafter, the game mode signal for entering the game mode is received from the computer and the wireless communication terminal (407).

Here, entering the game mode means that the wireless communication terminal is switched to the ready state for executing the game in the call mode, and the computer is also switched to the ready state for executing the process for executing the game. It means.

Then, the game program data stored in the storage unit 202 is extracted and transferred to the computer according to the control of the operation / control unit 203, and the key registration information stored in the storage unit 202 is calculated / calculated. Extract it according to the control) and transmits it to the wireless communication terminal (408).

After the transmission of the game program data and key registration information, the game program data reception completion message is received from the computer, and the key registration information reception completion message is received from the wireless communication terminal (409).

In operation 410, a game program installation completion message and a key registration completion message are received from the wireless terminal.

Then, if a game execution message is received from the wireless communication terminal after a predetermined time for synchronization with the wireless communication terminal and the computer, the game execution message is transmitted to the computer (411).

Thereafter, when the game termination message is received from the wireless communication terminal, the game termination message is transmitted to the computer (412).

After entering the standby state for a predetermined time, the protocol setting program is terminated, so that the protocol setting with the computer and the wireless communication terminal is released (413).

5 is a flowchart illustrating a game playing method in a computer in a game playing method by a network configuration between a computer, a wireless communication terminal, and a portable memory device according to the present invention.

First, a physical network connection between a computer and a portable memory device is performed (501).

In this case, a wired network is formed by connecting a data transmission line between the USB port of the computer and the USB port of the portable memory device.

Here, in addition to the USB port, a UART port, an IEEE1394 port, an RS-232 port, etc., which can configure a physical layer related to communication, can be used.

Reduce the number and allow the game to run smoothly sequentially. The synchronization is often performed while the protocol program is running.                     

Thereafter, the game mode signal for entering the game mode is transmitted to the portable memory device (503).

Here, entering the game mode means that the computer terminates another process and enters a ready state for executing a process for performing a game.

Then, the game program data is received from the portable memory device (504).

When the reception of the game program data is completed, the game program reception completion message is transmitted to the portable memory device (505). After the game program is installed, the game program installation completion message is transmitted to the portable memory device (506).

When the game execution message is received from the portable memory device, the game is executed (507).

6 is an explanatory diagram showing a game execution method by a network configuration between a computer, a wireless communication terminal, and a portable memory device according to the present invention.

Wireless communication terminals, portable memory devices, and computers are configured with a physical layer related to signal transmission to enable the transmission and reception of data and control signals (USB port, RS-232 port, IEEE1394 port, UART port). And the like).

A computer and a portable memory device are connected by data transmission lines between ports constituting a physical layer such as a USB port, an IEEE1394 port, and the like, thereby enabling transmission and reception of signals.

First, let's look at terms related to ports.

The USB (Universal Serial Bus) port is a device that allows a universal serial bus to be attached, and allows a peripheral device to be easily attached regardless of the computer manufacturer.

It is an interface for connecting a computer with a peripheral device such as a mouse, a printer, a modem, a speaker, and the like, and it can be installed in most PC standard equipment because it can remove a complicated adapter.

Recently, most USB ports are used to transfer data from a mobile phone or digital camera to a PC. While the serial speed of the serial port is less than 100K per second, USB supports data transfer speeds of 12Mbps, so even the most peripherals are fast enough to connect up to 127 devices in a chain. It can be recognized even if it is connected while using a PC, and does not require a power supply for peripheral devices. By using USB, all peripheral devices are connected to the same connector without any software or hardware setup when connecting peripheral devices to the PC, which not only reduces the number of ports, but is also easy to install and miniaturizes portable PCs. There is an advantage to being possible. In general, PCs have two USB ports, but there is a USB hub that divides one port into multiple ports, so you can connect various peripherals.

The RS-232 (Recommended Standard 232) port is a device that enables a physical connection between computers and related devices for a relatively slow serial data communication. The computer communicates with other serial devices such as modems. Interface used to receive.

The IEEE 1394 port is a new standard for connecting peripherals to a PC. Up to 63 peripherals can be attached with a single plug and socket connection, and each device can transfer data at speeds of up to 400 Mbps. This standard can be described as a serial bus between one or more peripherals and the PC's microprocessor.

The Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (UART) port is a universal asynchronous transmit / receive port that provides an interface to serial devices attached to a computer, allowing it to communicate with or send data to or from modems or other serial devices. By converting the bytes received from the computer through the parallel circuit to the outside to a single serial bit stream, the serial bit stream is converted into bytes for computer processing. It can handle interrupts coming from the keyboard or mouse, and manage other types of interrupt processing and devices that require the computer's operating speed to match the speed of the device.                     

There are many types of ports as described above. However, in the present invention, it is assumed that the USB port is used in the wired network configuration between the computer and the portable memory device.

In addition, the portable memory device and the wireless communication terminal can be connected via wired / wireless connection. In the case of a wired connection, like a computer connection, a data transmission line is connected between physical layer ports such as a USB port and an IEEE1394 port. In this case, the transmission and reception of a radio signal is possible by setting a protocol between RF devices constituting the physical layer through the transmission and reception of a radio signal.

The setting of the physical layer is the actual format of the information unit electrically transmitted through the transmission medium, such as the format of the signal representing 0 and 1, the size of the connector, the allowable values of voltage or current, the names and functions of various control signals, and the like. It means that it is possible.

Here, when the interface of the physical layer (Physical Layer) in more detail, the interface of the physical layer (Electrical) is electrical (electrical), and is involved in the voltage or current to indicate 0 and 1, the timing of electrical changes, etc. Functionally, it describes the control and timing functions that must be performed in accordance with the physical interface, and the mechanical attributes describe the interfaces and circuits of the interface. Procedural attributes describe what the connector must do and the order in which events occur in order for the actual data transfer to take place.

When a wired / wireless network is established between a computer, a portable memory device, and a wireless communication terminal, a protocol setting program is executed on each device to sequentially perform the procedures related to synchronization and game play.

As the protocol setting program is executed, game program data stored in the portable memory device is transferred to the computer, and the game program data transferred to the computer is installed in the computer.

Here, the game program data stored in the portable memory device may be stored by transferring the game program stored in the first computer to the portable memory device, and transferring the game program downloaded to the computer through the Internet to the portable memory device. It may have been stored.

Therefore, it is possible to change to a new game as long as it receives a game program through a computer.

When the installation of the game program on the computer is completed, the execution of the game program is entirely in charge of the computer, and each wireless communication terminal only plays a role of transmitting and receiving control signals for controlling the game.

Further, key registration information is transmitted from the portable memory device to the wireless communication terminal, so that the wireless communication terminal registers a key necessary for game control.

As described above, a series of processes are sequentially performed by the protocol setting program. In addition, since transmission and reception of data and control signals have to take into account the delay time of data and control signals between devices, the synchronization signals are frequently exchanged.

Thereafter, when the game is executed, the execution screen of the game is output through a monitor mounted on the computer, and the game is controlled by inputting a key of the wireless communication terminal.

It is also possible for a large number of users to participate in the game by configuring a wired network, so that the number of users can participate as many ports as a port connecting the portable memory device and the wireless communication terminal. Since many people can participate in the game at the same time.

While the wired network was connected by data transmission line between ports, the wireless network was configured by the protocol setting program performing synchronization process for each wireless communication terminal by assigning channels for transmitting and receiving wireless signals. do.

When the wireless network is configured, the game is executed by the same method as the game execution method by the wired network configuration, except that the transmission and reception of the signal is performed through the wireless channel.

The present invention described above is capable of various substitutions, modifications, and changes without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention for those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains. It is not limited by the drawings.

As described above, the present invention can view a game screen on a large screen of a computer monitor instead of a small liquid crystal display (LCD) of a wireless communication terminal, thereby eliminating inconvenience in playing a game, and a small liquid crystal display device. When the game is played on the LCD, it can overcome the problem of deteriorating the eyesight of the game user, and even a large game program that takes a long time to operate in a wireless communication terminal can be quickly operated by a computer computing device. Because it can, it has the effect of running the game smoothly in a short time.

In addition, by supporting a multi-user method in which a large number of game users can participate in the game, a large number of users can participate in the game at the same time, and the effect of being able to carry a game with a large capacity as long as the memory of the portable memory device allows. There is.
