It is determined whether the waveforms of the preset pressure signal "match with each other (S24).

When the waveform of the received pressure signal and the waveform of the preset pressure signal stored in the storage unit 602 match each other, the controller 601 considers the user to reject or hold the call and blocks the call signal.

The similarity between the waveform of the pressure signal and the waveform of the preset pressure signal can be appropriately adjusted by the designer.

First, the controller 601 determines whether a call signal is received through a wireless communication network (S31). For example, the controller 601 determines whether a call signal is received through the communication unit 604.

The controller 601 determines whether a touch signal (electrostatic signal) is received from the electrostatic sensor 607 when the call signal is received through the communication unit 604 (S32). For example, the electrostatic sensor 607 is applied to the display unit 603, generates a touch signal (electrostatic signal) in response to a touch by a user, and outputs the generated touch signal to the controller 601.

When the call signal is received from the electrostatic sensor 607 when the call signal is received through the communication unit 604, the controller 601 receives the touch signal and a preset touch stored in the storage unit 602. The signal is compared (S33). For example, when the call signal is received from the electrostatic sensor 607 when the call signal is received through the communication unit 604, the control unit 601, the waveform of the received touch signal and the storage unit 602 Compare waveforms of the preset touch (electrostatic) signals stored in Here, the waveform of the preset touch signal stored in the storage unit 602 means that the user touches or grabs the electrostatic sensor when the user touches the electrostatic sensor 607 according to the embodiments of the present invention. When the waveform of the touch signal generated from the electrostatic sensor 607 is distinguished from the strength of the touch signal.

 If the touch signal is received from the electrostatic sensor 607 when the call signal is received through the communication unit 604, the control unit 601 stores the waveform of the received touch signal and stored in the storage unit 602.
