The present invention may be variously modified and have various embodiments, and specific embodiments will be illustrated in the drawings and described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood, however, that the invention is not intended to be limited to the particular embodiments, but includes all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the invention.

Also, in the present specification, when one component is referred to as "transmitting a signal" to another component, the one component may be directly connected to the other component to transmit a signal, but there is a specially opposite description. It is to be understood that unless otherwise, the signal may be transmitted in the intermediary with another component.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a book loan system, and FIG. 2 conceptually illustrates tag information stored in an RFID tag used in a book loan system.

Referring to FIG. 1, a book loan system includes a tag 110, a mobile communication terminal 120, and a book loan management device 130.

Tag 110 is attached to each book as an RFID tag that stores tag information, including book information 114 and status information 118, as illustrated in FIG. Book information 114 includes identification information (hereinafter, referred to as book identification information) of a book to which tag 110 is attached. In addition, the book information may further include additional information such as the author, summary, and publisher of the book. The status information 118 is information representing the loan status of the book. The state information 118 may be data in the form of a flag. For example, the status information 118 may be information set to 0 when the book is currently in a loan state and 1 when the book is in a loanable state. The tag 110 may provide tag information to an RFID reader and change tag information by an RFID writer.

The mobile communication terminal 120 reads the tag 110 and transmits a loan request for the book to which the tag 110 is attached according to the tag information to the book loan management device 130, and the state information stored in the tag 110 ( Change 118) to the loan status. For example, the mobile communication terminal 120 obtains tag information of the tag 110 according to an input for requesting a loan of a user. The mobile communication terminal 120 transmits a loan application including book identification information included in the tag information and terminal identification information, which is identification information of the mobile communication terminal 120, to the book loan management device 130. Then, when receiving the loan approval from the book loan management device 130, the mobile communication terminal 120 changes the state information 118 stored in the tag 110 to the loan state. The mobile communication terminal 120 may include an RFID reader and an RFID writer, and may be a terminal capable of transmitting and receiving data to and from the book loan managing device 130 through a communication network. Hereinafter, the configuration of the mobile communication terminal 120 will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 3.

The book loan management device 130 updates the loan status information of the book according to the loan application of the mobile communication terminal 120 and transmits a loan approval to approve the loan of the book to the mobile communication terminal 120. The loan status information includes book identification information and identification information of the user who borrowed the book (for example, the user's student ID, social security number, etc., hereinafter referred to as user identification information). For example, the book loan management device 130 extracts the terminal identification number included in the loan application and searches for a user identification information corresponding to the terminal identification information in a database provided in the book loan management device 130. The book loan management device 130 generates loan status information including the book identification information from the searched user identification information. Therefore, by checking the loan status information stored in the book loan management device 130, it is possible to check the user who borrowed the current book.

At this time, the book loan management device 130 may receive the user's terminal identification information (for example, a phone number) through the web to register the user's mobile communication terminal 120 as a terminal that can apply for a loan. For example, when the library library is equipped with a book loan system, the book loan management device 130 receives and stores personal information such as student's student number, name, and photo from the school computer system. In addition, the book loan management device 130 receives a registration request of the mobile communication terminal 120 for the book loan from the user (student) through a web page or an application installed in the mobile communication terminal 120. That is, the user registers the mobile communication terminal 120 by inputting terminal identification information of the mobile communication terminal 120 to the book loan management device 130. The book loan management apparatus 130 may store terminal identification information of the mobile communication terminal 120 in a database by matching the student number of each user.

3 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of a mobile communication terminal used in a book loan system.

Referring to FIG. 3, the mobile communication terminal 120 includes a tag obtaining unit 210, a control unit 220, a communication unit 230, and a tag revising unit 260.

The tag obtaining unit 210 is an RFID reader capable of reading tag information from the tag 110. The tag obtaining unit 210 receives tag information from the tag 110 when a user makes an input requesting a loan through an input unit (not shown). The tag obtaining unit 210 transmits the received tag information to the control unit 220.

The controller 220 transmits the loan application including the book identification information and the terminal identification information included in the tag information to the book loan management device 130 through the communication unit 230. When the controller 220 receives the loan approval from the book loan managing device 130 through the communication unit 230, the controller 220 requests the tag correction unit 260 to correct the state information.

The tag revising unit 260 changes the state information stored in the tag 110 to the loan state. The tag correction unit 260 may be an RFID writer that can modify tag information in the tag 110.

The communication unit 230 transmits and receives data to and from the book loan managing device 130 through a communication network. For example, the communication unit 230 transmits a loan application to the book loan management device 130 by the control unit 220 and receives a loan approval from the book loan management device 130. The communication unit 230 may be connected to one or more communication networks such as WCDMA and wireless LAN.

Hereinafter, a process of borrowing a book by the book loan system will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 4. Hereinafter, it is assumed that terminal identification information of the user is registered in the book loan managing device 130. That is, the book loan management apparatus 130 may store terminal identification information by matching each user identification information.

4 is a flowchart illustrating a process of lending a book by a book lending system.

Referring to FIG. 4, a user selects a book to be borrowed in a library, and approaches the mobile communication terminal 120 of the user with a tag 110 attached to the book.

In step 410, the mobile communication terminal 120 requests tag information through an RFID tag.

In step 420, the tag 110 transmits previously stored tag information to the mobile communication terminal 120. The tag information includes book information and status information. The book information may include book identification information of the book to which the tag 110 is attached and additional information such as the author, summary, and publisher of the book. The status information is information representing the loan status of the book. The state information may be data in the form of a flag.

In operation 430, the mobile communication terminal 120 extracts book identification information included in tag information and transmits a loan application including book identification information and terminal identification information to the book loan management device 130. In this case, the terminal identification information may be a phone number assigned to the mobile communication terminal 120 as information for identifying the mobile communication terminal 120.

In operation 440, the book loan managing apparatus 130 updates the loan status information corresponding to the book identification information included in the received loan application. For example, the book loan management device 130 searches for user identification information corresponding to the terminal identification information included in the loan application from among previously stored user information. The book loan management apparatus 130 matches and stores the retrieved user identification information with the book identification information.

In operation 450, the book loan management apparatus 130 transmits a loan approval to approve the loan of the book to the mobile communication terminal 120.

In operation 460, the book loan managing apparatus 130 changes the state information of the tag 110 to a loan state. Therefore, the alarm does not sound even after the user carries the book and passes through the entrance of the library.

As described above, the book loan system may enable book loans to be quickly made by allowing a user to proceed with the book loan using his mobile terminal 120.
