3A and 3B are flowcharts illustrating an operation of a screen switching service providing system during a call call shown in FIG. 1. As shown by way of example only in Figures 3a and 3b, the method of providing a screen switching service during the ongoing call call proceeds as the caller requests the caller (S100).

Accordingly, the exchange unit 200 searches for the first additional service registered to the caller and the called party, and then classifies each first additional service by the caller or the called party (S102 to S106).

Subsequently, it is assumed that there is no first additional service for providing to the calling terminal 110 when an outgoing call is made to the caller, and if there is a first additional service for providing to the caller, the first additional service is provided. Provided (S108).

In addition, when the first additional service registered for the called party is a coloring service (S110), the switching unit 200 requests a coloring service server of the first additional service unit 300 to provide a coloring service (S112).

Thereafter, the coloring providing server of the first additional service unit 300 provides a coloring sound source set by the called party to the calling terminal 110 during the call waiting time (S114).

During this process, the first additional service unit 300 searches whether any one or more of the sender and the called party are subscribed to the second additional service (ie, screen switching service) related to the coloring service (S116).

In step S116, it is assumed that the called party is not registered in the second additional service, and if the called party is registered in the second additional service, steps to be described later apply to the called terminal device 120 (S120).

In step S116, when the caller is registered in the second additional service that is the screen switching service (S122), the first additional service unit 300 switches the screen to the calling terminal device 110 in the second additional service unit 400. A request is made to provide a second additional service which is a service (S124).

Meanwhile, in addition to the first additional service unit 300 as described above, the target of requesting a service to the second additional service unit 400 is based on the service subscription registration information previously stored by the exchange unit 200 for the second additional service. It is also possible to determine whether to subscribe or to request the second additional service unit 400 to provide the second additional service.

Accordingly, the second additional service unit 400 generates a data call for the calling terminal 110 in response to the request for providing the second additional service, and then provides content related to the coloring service through the generated data call. Screen switching control information including a connection path for receiving a screen is formed (S126).

Thereafter, the second additional service unit 400 transmits the formed screen switching control information to the calling terminal 110 to induce the calling terminal 110 to form a data call (S128 and S130).

The calling terminal device 110 receives the content providing screen related to the coloring service from the content providing unit 500 and displays the content providing screen on the terminal screen through the data call based on the second additional service (S132 and S134).

When the called terminal 120 is connected to the called call in response to the call during this process, a call is made between the calling terminal 110 and the called terminal 120 (S136 and S138).

Thereafter, even when the call is terminated between the callers, the calling terminal 110 maintains the data call for the second additional service, so that the caller receives information about the coloring sound source through the content providing screen being displayed on the terminal screen. In addition to confirming, content setting such as purchasing content for coloring may be performed (S140 to S146).

Upon completion of the caller's use of the second additional service through the above process, the data call is terminated according to the caller's setting (S148).

As shown in FIG. 5 as an example, the process of receiving the second additional service by connecting the data call to the originating terminal apparatus 110 may include the second additional service unit 400 being connected to the first additional service unit 300. Alternatively, in response to the request for providing the second additional service of the switching unit 200, the screen switching control information is formed, and then the transmitting terminal device 110 is transmitted (S200 and S202).

Accordingly, when the originating terminal device 110 starts the VM application stored in correspondence with the second additional service through the screen switching control information, the calling terminal device 110 uses the second additional service unit based on the URL information included in the screen switching control information. A data call connection is attempted to 400 (S204 and S206).

Subsequently, the second additional service unit 400 reads URL information that is previously stored in response to the content providing unit 500 in response to the access of the calling terminal device 110, and then calls the terminal through the read URL information. Redirection is connected between the device 110 and the content provider 500 (S208).

Accordingly, the content providing unit 500 provides the content providing screen related to the coloring service to the second additional service unit 400 (S210), whereby the second additional service unit 400 transmits the content providing screen to the calling terminal device. Transfer to the redirection (Redirection) connection method (110) (S212).

The calling terminal device 110 displays the content providing screen delivered from the second additional service unit 400 on the terminal screen so that the caller can check the music information about the coloring service (S214).

FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating another example of a data call connection process during an operation of a screen switching service providing system during a call call shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B. As shown only as an example in FIG. 6, a process in which the originating terminal apparatus 110 receives a second supplementary service by connecting a data call is performed by the second supplementary service unit 400 by the first supplementary service unit 300. Alternatively, in response to the request for providing the second additional service of the switching unit 200, the screen switching control information is formed, and then the transmitting terminal device 110 is transmitted (S300 and S302).

Accordingly, as the originating terminal device 110 starts the VM application which is previously stored in correspondence with the second additional service through the screen switching control information, the content providing unit 500 based on the URL information included in the screen switching control information. Data call connection is attempted at step S304 and S306.

Accordingly, the content provider 500 transmits the content providing screen related to the coloring service to the calling terminal 110 (S308).

The calling terminal 110 displays the content providing screen delivered from the content providing unit 500 on the terminal screen so that the caller can check the music information about the coloring service (S310).
