Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram of a group terminal control system according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, the group terminal control system includes a mobile communication terminal group 10 including at least two or more terminals 10-1 to 10-n having different device identification numbers or subscriber identification numbers but having the same telephone number. ), Subscriber information using a single phone number / multiple terminal service connected to the mobile communication network 20 and the mobile communication network 20 for providing voice and / or data services to the mobile communication terminal group 10, and a calling authority for each subscriber. And a group terminal control device 30 that manages information related to a call right, and controls a call procedure by referring to a call right when a subscriber attempts to call and controls a call procedure by referring to a call right when a call is recognized. It includes.

Here, the group terminal control device 30 may receive the subscriber information, the origination and the call authority related information through the mobile communication network 20, but is not limited thereto, and the wired communication through the wired communication network 50. It is also possible to receive the relevant information from the terminal 40.

Meanwhile, the mobile communication network 20 includes a base station 22, a base station controller 24, an exchanger 26, and a home location register 28, and the subscriber information registered in the group terminal control device 30 is a home location. It is sent to the register 28 and stored. When the call is requested from the mobile communication terminal subscriber or when the incoming call is recognized by the mobile communication terminal, the home location register 28 refers to the terminal requesting the call with reference to the subscriber information received from the group terminal control apparatus 30 or Check whether the incoming terminal is a terminal of a single telephone number / multiple terminal service subscriber, and if the terminal of a single telephone number / multiple terminal service subscriber checks the calling authority or the incoming authority so that call or incoming call is made.

In addition, the authentication center 60, which is connected to the home location register 28, is a single telephone number / multiple terminal service subscriber's telephone in order to authenticate whether the subscriber is a legitimate subscriber in the authentication procedure according to the use of the single telephone number / multiple terminal service subscriber. The number, subscriber identification number, device identification number and authentication key are stored and managed in a database.

In the authentication center 60, the authentication of the terminal is made in different ways depending on the case where the MDN and the authentication key is the same, or the MDN is the same but the authentication key is different for each terminal. First, when the MDN and the authentication key are the same, since each terminal included in the group terminal has a different MIN or ESN, authentication may be performed using MIN or ESN as an input value. On the other hand, if the MDN is the same but the authentication key for each terminal is different, the authentication center 60 manages the authentication key for each terminal, and compares the authentication key transmitted from the terminal with the authentication key stored in the authentication center 60 Authenticate the terminal.

In addition, the authentication center 60 generates and stores a call history and a call count value for each MIN or ESN of the terminal, and can be used for later charging.

FIG. 2 is a detailed configuration diagram of the group terminal control apparatus shown in FIG. 1.

As shown, the group terminal control device 30 is a communication network for protocol conversion with the control unit 310, subscriber management unit 320, outgoing processing unit 330, incoming processing unit 340, wired and wireless communication network to control the overall operation Interface 350 and database 360.

The subscriber management unit 320 receives the mobile communication terminal group information of a single phone number / multiple terminal service subscriber through the mobile communication network 20 or the wired communication network 50 and stores it in the database 360. For example, the database 360 stores a plurality of subscriber identification numbers MIN1 to MINn and / or device identification numbers ESN1 to ESNn mapped to one telephone number MDN. A terminal used for a single phone number / multiple terminals may be a terminal having the same telephone number (MDN) and subscriber identification number (MIN) but different device identification number (ESN), and the same telephone number (MDN) but subscriber identification. The number MIN and the device identification number ESN may be different terminals.

The call processing unit 330 receives information related to a call right for a single phone number / multiple terminal service subscriber through the mobile communication network 20 or the wired communication network 50 and stores the information in the database 360, while the caller receives the call. In case of attempt, information related to origination authority stored in the database 360 is provided to the exchange 26 or the home location register 28 of the mobile communication network 20 so that the originating procedure is performed.

For example, the calling authority may be divided into a special calling mode and all terminal calling modes. In the special calling mode, a single telephone number / multiple terminal service subscriber registers with the calling processor 330 to use only one of the terminals included in the mobile communication terminal group 10 for calling only, so that calling is possible through the corresponding terminal. In this mode, the subscriber should provide the identification number (subscriber identification number or device identification number) of the terminal to be used exclusively for transmission to the transmission processing unit 330, and all terminal transmission modes refer to a mode capable of transmission using all terminals. do. Here, the calling authority may be registered by the subscriber by directly accessing the group terminal control device 30, and after registering with the home location register 28, the group terminal control device 30 is associated with the home location register 28. It is also possible to receive and store information.

On the other hand, the incoming processing unit 340 receives the information related to the right to call for a single phone number / multiple terminal service subscribers via the mobile communication network 20 or wired communication network 50 and stores it in the database 360, and to the subscriber When the incoming call is recognized, information related to the call authority stored in the database 360 is provided to the mobile communication network 20 so that the incoming call procedure is performed.

For example, the incoming right may be classified into all terminal incoming modes, priority incoming mode, special incoming call mode, and recently used terminal incoming mode. All terminal incoming mode means that paging is performed to all the terminals constituting the mobile communication terminal group 10 when an incoming call is made to a single phone number / multiple terminal service subscriber. Accordingly, paging is sequentially performed for a predetermined time in a designated order with reference to identification numbers (subscriber identification numbers or device identification numbers) of the mobile communication terminals constituting the mobile communication terminal group. In the special incoming call mode, the subscriber directly sends the terminal identification number (subscriber identification number or device identification number) to the group terminal control device 30 or the home location register among the mobile communication terminals constituting the mobile communication terminal group. By registering through 28, it means to perform paging to the corresponding terminal, and the recently used terminal incoming mode means that the subscriber performs paging to a terminal recently used for origination or reception.

When the incoming mode is, for example, the priority incoming mode, the exchange 26 performs paging for a predetermined time according to the priority by the control of the group terminal control apparatus 30, and the subscriber performs the paging until the specified time elapses. If not, paging is performed to the next priority terminal. If the subscriber responds to the paging within the designated time, it is preferable to form a call path and no longer perform paging to the next priority terminal.

In addition, when the incoming mode is, for example, a special incoming mode, the exchange 26 performs paging to a terminal registered exclusively for incoming calls under the control of the group terminal control apparatus 30, and if the subscriber does not respond within a specified time. This is reported to the incoming call processing unit 340 of the group terminal control device 30. Accordingly, it is preferable that the incoming processing unit 340 switches the incoming authority to all the terminal incoming mode or the priority incoming mode, and preferably transmits the terminal information to the exchange 26.

On the other hand, the incoming call processing unit 340 registers a preliminary registration when the caller receives additional information (information that the caller specifies one of the mobile communication terminals) from the mobile communication network 20 to a single telephone number / multiple terminal service subscriber. It is possible to ignore the incoming call right and control the incoming call to the mobile communication terminal designated by the caller.

3A and 3B are exemplary views of subscriber information managed by the group terminal control apparatus and the authentication center of the present invention, respectively.

As shown in FIG. 3A, the database 360 of the group terminal control apparatus 30 includes a telephone number MDN, subscriber identification numbers MIN1 to MINn mapped thereto, device identification numbers ESN1 to ESNn, and calling authority. , Call forwarding rights, and other information is stored.

3B is an exemplary diagram of subscriber information managed by the authentication center 60.

A single telephone number / multiple terminal service user authenticates subscribers using different authentication keys depending on the authentication method, that is, the same authentication key or the independent authentication key.

First, when the telephone number and the authentication key are the same, the subscriber identification number or the device identification number is used as the authentication key. In this case, the authentication method field of FIG. 3B indicates that the authentication method is used when the same authentication key is used, and each authentication key field is left blank.

On the other hand, if the phone number is the same but the authentication keys are different, the terminal receives an authentication key that is differently assigned to each terminal, and compares the authentication key stored in the authentication key field of the authentication center to the terminal. Perform authentication. In this case, the authentication method field of FIG. 3B indicates that the authentication method when the independent authentication key is used, and the authentication key assigned to each subscriber identification number or device identification number is recorded in the authentication key field.

Meanwhile, the subscriber information managed by the authentication center 60 may further include a call history count field. That is, as a single telephone number / multiple terminal service user uses a calling or calling service, the authentication center counts the number of times that the calling or calling service is performed by each subscriber identification number or device identification number, and counts the count in the corresponding field. Save it. This count value can be used later in the charging process.

Alternatively, the device identification number (ESN) is registered in the database 360 (S101), and at the request of the subscriber, the originating processor 330 of the group terminal control apparatus 30 receives the calling authority and stores it in the database 360. After transmitting the originating authority information to the home location register (28) (S103, S105). Here, the subscriber can register the calling authority through the wired or wireless communication network. Particularly, in case the user wants to set the calling authority in the special calling mode, the group terminal control device directly sends the identification number (subscriber identification number or device identification number) and the specific code of the corresponding mobile communication terminal through the mobile communication terminal that the subscriber will use only for calling. If the direct transmission to the 30, the group terminal control device 30 can transmit the calling authority information to the home location register 28, or by transmitting to the group terminal control device 30 through the home location register 28 You can register the authority.

Subsequently, the home location register 28 exchanges outgoing call information to the exchange 26, that is, when a single telephone number / multiple terminal service user sets the call authority in the special call mode, the terminal information of the group terminals without the call authority is exchanged. Transfer to 26 (S107).

In this state of registration, as a single telephone number / multiple terminal service subscriber attempts to make a call (S109), an outgoing request message is sent to the switchboard 26, and the switchboard 26 sends a call from the home location register 28 to the caller. The device identification number or the subscriber identification number of the mobile communication terminal requesting the call is checked with reference to the received call prohibition information (S111).

In the present invention, since any one of the mobile communication terminal group is registered as the call-only, and only the call request from the terminal can be processed normally, the damage caused by the malicious call attempt by another person through the unregistered terminal is prevented. can do.

In addition, the calling authority may be changed at any time according to the needs of the subscriber.In the case of the special calling mode, the calling-only terminal may also request the subscriber to register the calling authority through the corresponding terminal (for example, transmit a specific code to the group terminal control apparatus, Or via the home location register to the group terminal control device).

9 is a flowchart illustrating a call control method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

For the present invention, as a single telephone number / multiple terminal service user subscribes to the service, the subscriber management unit 320 of the group terminal control apparatus 30 is a telephone number (MDN), and a subscriber identification number (MIN) mapped thereto. Alternatively, the device identification number (ESN) is registered in the database 360 (S101), and at the request of the subscriber, the incoming processing unit 340 of the group terminal control apparatus 30 receives the incoming right and stores the received authority in the database 360. It is preferable (S103). Here, the subscriber can register the right to call through a wired or wireless communication network, in particular, if you want to set the right to call in the special call mode, the identification number of the corresponding mobile communication terminal through a mobile communication terminal that the subscriber will use only for incoming calls (Subscriber identification number or device identification number) and a specific code can be directly transmitted to the group terminal control device 30, or the call authority can be registered by transmitting to the group terminal control device 30 through the home location register 28. have.

In the state registered in this way, according to the notification of the incoming call (calling number, called number, etc.) to the subscriber from the mobile communication network 20 to the group terminal control device 30 (S301), the incoming processing unit 340 is Check the receiving right of the subscriber (S303).

As a result of the check, in all terminal incoming modes, the incoming processing unit 340 instructs the exchange 26 of the mobile communication network 20 to perform paging to all terminals included in the mobile communication terminal group of the subscriber (S305).

If, as a result of the check in step S303, the priority reception mode, the reception processing unit 340 transmits the terminal identification number of the highest priority to the exchange 26 to perform the incoming procedure, if the subscriber does not respond to the exchange ( As 26) reports this to the incoming processing unit 340, the incoming processing unit 340 provides the terminal identification number of the next priority to the exchange 26 to perform the incoming procedure (S307). More specifically, when the incoming processing unit 340 provides the first priority terminal information to the exchange 26, it performs paging to the corresponding terminal, and if the subscriber does not respond within a specified time, the incoming processing unit 340 Report, receiving second priority terminal information. Thereafter, after the exchange performs paging to the second priority terminal, the subscriber establishes a call path when the subscriber responds within a designated time, and does not perform paging to a subsequent priority terminal.

On the other hand, when the check result of step S303 in the special incoming call mode, the incoming processing unit 340 transmits the terminal identification number set to the incoming call only to the exchange 26 to perform the creation procedure to the corresponding terminal (S309). Although not shown, if the subscriber does not respond within a specified time after paging to the call-only terminal, the exchange 26 reports this to the call processing unit 340, whereby the call processing unit 340 transmits the call authority to all terminals. It is preferable to change the incoming authority in the incoming mode or the priority incoming mode to increase the call connection success rate.

Next, in the case of recently used terminal incoming mode as a result of checking in step S303, the incoming processing unit 340 receives the terminal identification number used by the subscriber most recently for the originating or incoming call from the home location register 28 to the exchange 26. Transmit, and the incoming call is made to the identification number (S311). Even in this case, if the subscriber does not respond within the designated time, it is desirable to change the incoming authority to all the terminal incoming mode or the priority incoming mode described above to increase the call connection success rate.

10 is a flowchart illustrating a call control method according to another embodiment of the present invention, which shows a call control method when a caller includes additional information in a call number. Here, the additional information means information added by the caller to designate any one terminal of the mobile communication terminal group.

In the present embodiment, steps S101 and S105 are the same as the procedure of Fig. 9 described above, and thus detailed description thereof will be omitted.

As the subscriber information and the call authority are registered in this way, the fact of the call (calling number, called number, additional information, etc.) from the mobile communication network 20 to the group terminal control apparatus 30 is notified (S301). The incoming call processor 340 checks whether the additional information is included in the information input by the calling party (S401).

When the verification result of step S401 indicates that the additional information is included in the information input by the calling party, the incoming processing unit 340 sends the terminal identification number (subscriber identification number or device identification number) indicated by the additional information to the exchange 26.
