Abstract

A system for supplying a provider indication service in a mobile communication terminal and a method therefor are provided to enable a relay system to generate a mobile communication provider ID by searching a voice call request signal if the request signal is sent to a terminal, and to include the ID in the request signal to send the signal to the terminal, so that a provider indication is displayed on a screen of the terminal. A voice call request signal for a voice call between a transmitting mobile communication terminal and a receiving mobile communication terminal is received from the transmitting terminal(S200). It is confirmed whether the receiving terminal uses a CID(Caller Identification) service(S202,S204). If so, it is confirmed whether the receiving terminal uses a provider indication service(S206). If so, the provider indication is displayed on a screen of the receiving terminal(S210).

The present invention relates to a system and method for providing a service provider service to a mobile communication terminal. More specifically, when the voice call request signal is transmitted to the mobile communication terminal to the repeater system of the mobile communication network, the repeater system searches for the voice call request signal to generate a mobile communication operator identifier, and includes the generated identifier in the voice call request signal. The present invention relates to a system and a method for providing a service provider service to a mobile communication terminal that transmits to the mobile communication terminal to display the service provider display on the screen of the mobile communication terminal.

The mobile communication system has been developed through the first generation analog AMPS (Advanced Mobile Phone System) method and the second generation cellular (Cellular) / Personal Communication Service (PCS) method. The third generation mobile communication system IMT-2000 (International Mobile Telecommunication 2000), which is enacted as a standard in ITU-R, is commercially available. IMT-2000 is CDMA 2000 1X, 3X, EV-DO, Wideband CDMA (WCDMA), etc., and is used in IS-95A and IS-95B networks by using the IS-95C network that has evolved from the existing IS-95A and IS-95B networks. It is a service that can provide wireless Internet at a transmission speed of up to 144 Kbps, much faster than the supportable data transfer rate of 14.4 Kbps or 56 Kbps. In particular, by using IMT-2000 service, it is possible to provide various multimedia services (AOD, VOD, etc.) at a faster speed as well as improving existing voice and wireless broadcasting service (WBS) service quality.

In addition, recently, as a part of overcoming the limitations in providing the wireless Internet service of the aforementioned mobile communication system, a portable Internet system (HPi: High Speed) capable of using a high-speed wireless Internet service at a low cost while moving Development of the Portable Internet System or WiBro: Wireless Broadband Internet System. The portable internet system uses various types of portable terminals such as laptops, PDAs, and handheld PCs to access various types of information and contents by accessing the Internet in indoor and outdoor stationary environments and mobile environments at walking speeds and low to medium speeds. It is a service. In addition, it enables mobile subscribers to use the wireless Internet while moving at a speed of 60 km / h, provides a downlink transmission speed of 24 Mbps, and a downlink transmission of 50 Mbps using a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system. It is an IP (Internet Protocol) based wireless data system that can provide speed.

The mobile subscriber can use the mobile communication system to carry voice communication while carrying the mobile communication terminal, and wirelessly access the Internet through the mobile communication system using the wireless Internet technology to transmit text, images, Multimedia data services such as voice or video are provided. The wireless Internet allows a mobile subscriber to search and download a variety of information by accessing the Internet using a mobile communication terminal without time or space constraints.

Recently, with the development of internet and multimedia data technology, a content provider (CP) that provides various contents such as multimedia communication, network game, and video game has emerged, and various services provided by the content provider as a mobile communication terminal. The number of mobile subscribers who want to use has increased.

In addition, the hardware of the mobile communication terminal continues to evolve in accordance with the service provided. Although the initial model only supported voice calls and short massage services, the camera was installed on the mobile communication terminal to take pictures, and the mobile communication terminal was equipped with a module capable of reproducing sound. In recent years, hardware development has been continued up to the mobile communication terminal equipped with a module capable of reproducing and receiving satellite broadcasting.

Mobile carriers that provide mobile communication services to mobile terminal users initially provided mobile communication services to mobile terminal users by changing their mobile carrier identification numbers.However, in 2004, the Ministry of Information and Communication integrated the service provider identification numbers into one. To provide mobile communication services. The mobile telecommunication company uses the existing operator identification number as the existing mobile communication terminal user, but issues an integrated operator identification number to a mobile communication terminal user who applies for a new mobile communication service. Therefore, the mobile communication terminal users can not distinguish between the operators when the call received by the operator identification number integrated in their mobile communication terminal.

Among the additional services provided by different mobile communication service providers to the mobile communication terminals, there are a plurality of services that can be used only between users of the mobile communication terminals using the same mobile communication service. However, the mobile terminal user has difficulty in using additional services because the integrated operator identification number cannot distinguish the mobile communication service provider.

In order to solve this problem, the present invention, when a voice call request signal is transmitted to the mobile communication terminal to the repeater system of the mobile communication network, the repeater system searches for the voice call request signal to generate a mobile communication operator identifier, and the generated identifier It is an object of the present invention to provide a system and method for providing a service provider service to a mobile communication terminal that is included in the call request signal transmitted to the mobile communication terminal to display the service provider display on the screen of the mobile communication terminal.
