Referring to FIG. 1, the service providing server 102 may provide a location based service to the user terminal 101. For example, Location Based Service (LBS) is used to identify and utilize the location information of a person or thing, such as a service of finding a friend, an electronic map providing service, a location inquiry service, a traffic information providing service, or a local information providing service. It can mean a service.

In the related art, the service providing server 102 is directly connected to each communication company 104, 105, and 106 to collect location information held by the corresponding communication company to provide location-based services to the user terminal 101. In this case, the user terminal 101 may include not only a wireless terminal such as a mobile phone but also a wired terminal such as a computer.

At this time, there were many cases where the communication company of the terminal targeted for the location-based service was different. If the number of the communication companies 104, 105, and 106 is further increased, the time for searching for the communication company subscribed to by the location inquiry target terminal is long, and thus, the time for providing location-based services is increased. In addition, when the location inquiry target terminal changes the communication company 104, 105, 106 by moving the number, there is a problem that it is difficult to identify the changed communication company (104, 105, 106).

In the location-based service interworking system 103 according to an embodiment of the present invention, the service providing server 102 may provide a common interface for the location-based service by interworking with the communication companies 104, 105, and 106. That is, the location-based service interworking system 103 collects location information from interworking carriers 104, 105, and 106, thereby providing an integrated platform for the service providing server 102 to more easily provide location-based services. can do. In other words, the location-based service interworking system 103 may serve as a gateway through which the service providing server 102 may interoperate with the communication companies 104, 105, and 106. In this case, the communication company may include a wired or wireless communication company, and the number of communication companies may be changed without being limited.

For example, when the user terminal 101 requests the service providing server 102 to inquire about the location of another user's mobile phone, the service providing server 102 is a telecommunication company 104, 105, and 106 to which the mobile phone, which is the terminal for which the location is searched, subscribes. ) Can be received through the location-based service interworking system 103 without directly interworking. In addition, since the location-based service interworking system 103 collectively manages subscribers subscribed to the carriers 104, 105, and 106, the service providing server 102 may more easily provide location-based services to the user terminal 101.

When the cache data of the location inquiry target terminal exists, the cache data search unit 401 may check the communication company inquiry details included in the cache data to query the communication company of the location inquiry target terminal. That is, by using cache data of the carrier inquiry details for the position inquiry target terminal which has already inquired the carrier, the interworking overhead may be reduced.

The number movement information retrieval unit 402 may retrieve the number movement information between the communication companies and inquire the communication company of the location inquiry target terminal. For example, even if the location inquiry target terminal using the 011-xxxx-xxxx number is changed from the “A” communication company to the “B” communication company, the terminal number may be applied as it is to the 011-xxxx-xxxx number. Such carrier change can be stored as number transfer information between carriers. Accordingly, the number movement information retrieval unit 402 may retrieve the changed communication company of the location inquiry target terminal by retrieving the number movement information between the communication companies.

For example, when the cache data of the location query target terminal is not retrieved through the cache data search unit 401, the number movement information search unit 402 may determine whether there is a number movement history of the location query target terminal. You can check

The station number assignment history search unit 403 may search the station number assignment history for each communication company and inquire the carrier of the location inquiry target terminal. For example, if the station number is 010, the 'A' operator may assign terminal numbers from 010-1001 to 010-2000, and the 'B' carrier may assign terminal numbers from 010-2001 to 010-3000. Suppose there is. If the terminal number of the location inquiry target terminal is 010-2054-xxxx, the station number assignment history search unit 403 may check that the communication company of the location inquiry target terminal is 'B'.

For example, if the communication company of the location query target terminal is not queried through the number movement information search unit 402, the station number assignment history search unit 403 checks the station number assignment history of each communication company and inquires the carrier of the location query target terminal. can do.

The carrier inquiry unit 302 may query the carrier in ascending order when the carrier inquiries of the location inquiry target terminal fail through the cache data for the carrier inquiry details, the number movement information between the carriers, and the station number assignment for each carrier. . For example, if there are 1 million subscribers of the 'A' telecommunication company, 500,000 subscribers of the 'B' telecommunication company, and 700,000 subscribers of the 'C' telecommunication company, the telecommunication service provider 302 may use the A telecommunication company and the C telecommunication company. In the order of the B communication company, the communication company of the location inquiry target terminal can be inquired.

The cache data generation unit 404 may generate cache data of the communication company inquiry details of the location inquiry target terminal when the communication company inquiry of the location inquiry target terminal is successful. When there is a carrier inquiry request for the position inquiry target terminal which has already completed the carrier inquiry, the carrier inquiry unit 302 may inquire the carrier quickly using the generated cache data.
