The GGSN means a node responsible for the connection function between the GPRS backbone network and the external packet data network. The GGSN converts the GPRS packet received from the SGSN into an appropriate Packet Data Protocol (PDP) format and transmits it to the IP server and converts the PDP address of the incoming packet data to the recipient's global mobile communication system (GSM) address Can be performed. In addition, the GGSN can store the user's profile and the address of the SGSN of the user stored in the location register of the SGSN.

On the other hand, the circuit network includes a mobile switching center (MSC). The MSC, also called the mobile switching center, can control the entire system.

Specifically, the MSC may select the path through which data received from the RNC control station is to be forwarded to the IP server. To this end, the MSC can perform control functions necessary for the mobility of electronic devices and the efficient operation of frequency resources. In addition, the MSC can perform a central control function of processing signals originated or received from the Node B base station and adjusting the Node B base station so that it can be operated efficiently.

As described above, data is transmitted from the electronic device to the RNC control station through the Node B base station, and data transmitted to the RNC control station can be transmitted to the IP server through the packet network and the circuit network.

Here, the electronic device may be at least one of electronic devices capable of wireless communication such as a mobile terminal, a laptop, and a television, as shown in FIG. 3A.

The cloud server 200 refers to a large-capacity database that can integrate various information stored in the electronic devices 100a, 100b, 100c, and 100d physically located at different locations with virtualization technology. In this way, the cloud server 200 can distribute the data stored in the large-capacity database in the Internet virtual data center, process it, or transmit it to at least one electronic device 100a, 100b, 100c or 100d. That is, the cloud server 200 can store software and data in a data central computer (or central server) connected to the Internet. Accordingly, when the user accesses the cloud server 200 through the electronic device, the user can receive the software or data stored in the central computer at any time.

The electronic devices 100a, 100b, 100c, and 100d connected to the cloud server 200 have at least one wireless communication protocol and can access the cloud server 200 through a wireless communication protocol have. The electronic devices 100a, 100b, 100c, and 100d and the cloud server 200 can be connected through a wireless network. In order for the electronic devices 100a, 100b, 100c and 100d to access the cloud server 200 through a wireless network, the Wireless Network may be a Wi-Fi (Wireless-Fidelity), a 3G (Generation) , DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance), NFC (Near Field Communication), and BT (BlueTooth) communication method.

Here, the 'connection' between the cloud server 200 and the electronic device means that the electronic devices 100a, 100b, 100c, and 100d and the cloud server are mutually connected to each other via a pairing, synchronization, Can be expressed. This means that it is possible to transfer information between the electronic devices 100a, 100b, 100c, and 100d and the cloud server 300, that is, to transmit valid data.

As described above, the connection between the cloud server 200 and the electronic devices 100a, 100b, 100c, and 100d can be performed based on a request from at least one of the cloud server 200 and the electronic devices 100a, 100b, 100c, have. Also, the cloud server 200 can connect to a plurality of electronic devices 100a, 100b, 100c, and 100d at the same time, and transmits information received from one electronic device to another electronic device It is possible to do.

Hereinafter, a method of performing a schedule sharing service between a mobile terminal, an electronic device, and a cloud system using the cloud system will be described with reference to FIGS. 4A, 4B, and 5. 4A and 4B are flowcharts illustrating a control method of a cloud system according to an exemplary embodiment, and FIG. 5 is a conceptual diagram illustrating the control method of FIGS. 4A and 4B.

Meanwhile, in the following embodiments, the electronic device exemplifies a mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal may include at least one of the components previously discussed with reference to FIGS. 1, 2A, and 2B.

4A and 4B, a cloud system including the first terminal 100a, the second terminal 100b, and the cloud server 200 will be described as an example. The cloud system including the first terminal 100a, the second terminal 100b, and the cloud server 200 may perform a schedule sharing service, and the term 'schedule sharing service' refers to a cloud server in the first terminal 100a. By sharing at least one schedule information synchronized to the 200 with the second terminal 100b, the location information of the second terminal 100b is stored on the date corresponding to the schedule information, and thus the first terminal 100a. Means the services provided.

Here, the schedule information includes information related to at least one of a date, a time, a destination, an attendee, and content, and may be, for example, a meeting schedule for a 'new product development meeting'. The first terminal 100a may generate such schedule information based on a user's selection. When the schedule information is transmitted to the cloud server 200, the cloud server 200 may share the schedule information. The schedule information is transmitted to the device (for example, the second terminal 100b), and the cloud server 200 receives the date and time included in the schedule information under the approval of the user of the second terminal 100b. The location information of the second terminal 100b may be collected and the collected location information may be transmitted back to the first terminal 100a. Accordingly, the user of the first terminal 100a may access the second terminal through the cloud server 200. The schedule information 100b can be easily shared with each other, and the position of the second terminal 100b can be grasped at a glance.

As described above, in order to collect the location information of the second terminal 100b in the first terminal 100a, the first terminal 100a first generates schedule information (S410).

For example, referring to FIG. 5, an electronic calendar may be output on the display unit 151 of the first terminal 100a. In addition, the user may select a specific date (eg, August 11, 510) and a time on the electronic calendar. As such, when the date and time are selected on the electronic calendar, the controller 180 of the first terminal 100a may receive the attendee information from the user, as shown in FIG.

Here, the participant information is a target device selected by the user, and the user may select at least one target device from a friend list (or 'recipient list') stored on the memory 160 of the first terminal 100a. have. In addition, the first terminal 100a may directly select identification information of a new target device that is not stored in the friend list. The friend list is a list of target devices in which identification information is stored in at least one of the first terminal 100a and the cloud server 200 so as to perform a schedule sharing service. The friend list may correspond to address book information stored in the first terminal 100a.

The identification information may be a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), and more specifically, may be at least one of a Tell URI and a SIP URI.

As described above, when setting of schedule information including a date, time, a destination, an attendee, and contents (for example, a “new product development meeting”) is completed, the first terminal 100a moves to the cloud server 200. The schedule information is transmitted (S420).

Here, if the schedule information is capable of being transmitted from the first terminal 100a to the cloud server 200 based on a user's selection, the schedule server automatically sets the schedule information in the first terminal 100a. It is also possible to be sent to 200.

Settings related to transmitting schedule information from the first terminal 100a to the cloud server 200 may be variously changed according to a user's selection.

As such, when schedule information is received by the cloud server 200, the cloud server 200 transmits the schedule information to a target device corresponding to the attendee information included in the schedule information (S430). That is, the cloud server 200 transmits the schedule information to the second terminal 100b corresponding to the target device (S430).

Next, the cloud server 200 collects location information of the second terminal 100b at a time corresponding to the date and time included in the schedule information (S440).

Meanwhile, the cloud server 200 may collect location information of the second terminal 100b only when a message allowing the collection of location information is received from the second terminal 100b. In addition, the cloud server 200 may collect location information only for the terminal of the participant who is able to attend the date corresponding to the schedule information, and the terminal of the attendee who is able to attend may receive an attendance approval message from the terminal. You can confirm by receiving.

Looking at an example of collecting location information between the cloud server 200 and the second terminal (100b), the second terminal (100b) in response to the location information collection request message received from the cloud server 200, the second terminal ( The location information obtained in 100b) may be transmitted to the cloud server 200.

That is, the cloud server 200 requests the second terminal 100b to transmit the location information of the second terminal 100b to the schedule included in the schedule information, and the second terminal 100b receives the second terminal ( The location information collected at 100b) may be transmitted to the cloud server 200.

In response to the location information collection request message message received from the cloud server 200, the second terminal 100b includes a positioning system mounted on the second terminal 100b (hereinafter, referred to as a “body”). System, Gps) or Wi-Fi to collect the location information of the main body.

The second terminal 100b checks whether the location of the main body collected through the location information unit 210 corresponds to the condition information based on the location information request message and the condition information included in the schedule information. Here, the condition information is information related to a schedule, a destination, and a time included in the schedule information.

If the location of the collected main body, that is, the location information of the main body meets the above condition, the second terminal 100b transmits the collected location information to the cloud server 200 that has transmitted the location information request message. do.

Through the above-described process, when the location information of the second terminal 100b is collected, the cloud server 200 transmits the location information of the second terminal 100b on a schedule corresponding to the date information (S450).

In addition, the first terminal 100a outputs the location information of the second terminal 100b on the display unit 151 using the location information of the second terminal 100b received from the cloud server 200 ( S460).

That is, as shown in (c) of FIG. 5, the cloud server 200 includes "TOM", "SUJI", "MIKE", "FALL" and "corresponding to the attendee selected by the first terminal 100a. The location information of the terminals 100b, 100c, 100d, 100e, and 100f of the SEMI "is collected, and the collected location information is transmitted to the first terminal 100a. As shown in FIG. 5D, the display unit 151 of the first terminal 100a includes "TOM", "SUJI", "MIKE", "FALL", and "SEMI" on an electronic map. By displaying the terminal locations 532. 533, 534, 535, 536 and destination 531, the location information of the participant can be provided to the user.

Meanwhile, the method of providing the location information of the participant to the user may be performed through various other methods in addition to the method of using the electronic map, as shown in FIG. May provide location information.

Meanwhile, the method of collecting the location information of the second terminal 100b by the cloud server 200 in operation S430 of FIG. 4A will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 4B.

Hereinafter, in FIG. 4B, a cloud server (hereinafter referred to as an "application (or server system") may request a location tracking request by a first mobile terminal (hereinafter referred to as a "third party (or client system)") to a target device ( Or when the second terminal 100b (hereinafter referred to as "SET (or SET user)") is notified whether or not the notification is based on a location, and how the SET can determine the time of the notification response. see.

To this end, the present invention provides a method for positioning a target device (or second terminal 100b) (or target SET (SUPL Enabled Terminal) (hereinafter referred to as SET)) from a first terminal (or LCS client, 100a). If required, the SLP (SUPL Location Platform) in the location server (or cloud server) includes a notification mode parameter in a SUPL INIT message and sends it to the SET. The parameter is a parameter indicating whether the normal notification and / or verification sent from the location server is a general notification and / or verification or a location based notification and / or verification.

In general, in the SUPL network, SLP, which is a location server, is responsible for the role of SLP (SUPL Positioning Center), which calculates the actual position, and SLP other than calculating position information, for example, roaming and resource management. SUPL Location Center). Therefore, in proxy mode, SET calculates location information through communication with SPC through SLC, and in non-proxy mode, it opens a connection with SPC to calculate location information. do.

Hereinafter, the location-based notification method in the proxy mode will be described.

1 illustrates an example of a location-based notification method in a location information system according to the present invention, in which a terminal does not roam in a proxy mode. At this time, the SLP corresponds to the network side, and SET corresponds to the terminal side.

As shown in FIG. 1, when an LCS client requests positioning of a SET to a SUPL agent in a network, the SUPL agent transmits a location tracking request of an LCS client to an SLP through an MLP SLIR message (S431). .

The MLP SLIR message includes ms-id, lcs-client-id and qop (quality of position).

The SLP checks whether the SUPL agent is authenticated for location service based on the received lcs-client-id, and checks the privacy based on the ms-id and lcs-client-id, that is, an external PCE (Privacy). Checking whether location tracking is allowed to LCS client from Checking Entity). The privacy check may be requested by the PCE or directly received by the SLP by receiving privacy information from the PCE. The SLP also checks if the previously calculated SET location meets the required QoP.

As a result of the check, if the previously calculated SET position satisfies the required QoP, and no notification and / or verification are needed, the SLP proceeds directly to step S439-2 and previously Transfer the calculated position of SET to SUPL agent.

On the other hand, if the previously calculated SET location does not satisfy the QoP and needs notification and / or verification, the SLP uses the SET lookup table to determine whether the SET supports SUPL and uses the routing information to determine whether the SET currently Check whether the service area (SET is roaming) (S432).

Once the authentication of the SUPL agent and the privacy check of the LCS client are completed, the SLP transmits a SUPR INIT message to the SET to initiate a location session with the SET (S433). The SUPL INIT message may be a WAP PUSH or SMS trigger, and includes at least session-id, positioning method (posmethod), SLP mode (proxy / non-proxy) and notification mode.

The notification mode parameter is a parameter for allowing the SET side to distinguish that the notification transmitted by the SLP is based on location. That is, to date, SET has not been able to distinguish whether a notification sent by the SLP represents a general notification or a location-based notification. Therefore, when a notification is requested from the SLP, the SET queries the SET user regardless of the type of notification and / or authentication, and immediately sends the response result to the SLP.

However, when the notification request by the location server is a location-based notification, the SET should transmit the notification response after performing the SUPL positioning procedure instead of immediately transmitting the notification response to the SLP.

Preferably, the general notification and / or authentication represents notification and / or authentication other than location based notification and / or authentication, for example user based notification and / or authentication.

The definition and type of the Notification Mode parameter are shown in Table 1.

[Table 1]

Referring to [Table 1], the type of the notification mode parameter is set to Normal Notification / Verification or Notification / Verification based on location. In the case of "0", the location is set to "1" in case of location-based notification / verification. In addition, when notification or verification of the privacy check result is required, the SLP may include a notification parameter in the SUPL INIT message.

When the SUPL INIT message is received from the SLP, the SET connects to a packet data network (a network such as 3GPP or 3GPP2) when no data connection is currently open (set) in any network (S434). Once the data connection is established, the SET checks if the notification is location based using the notification mode parameter value included in the SUPL INIT message.

If the check indicates that the notification by the SLP is not based on the location, the SET queries the SET user whether to allow the location tracking according to the notification rule. If not, a session end message (SUPL END) message (not shown) including a notification response of the user is transmitted to the SLP. On the other hand, if the notification is based on location, the SUPL POS INIT message without the notification response is sent to the SLP (holding the notification response) to start the positioning session with the SLP (S435).

The SUPL POS INIT message includes at least session-id, SET capabilities and location identifier (lid). The SET capabilities include location methods (e.g., MS assist A-GPS and MS based A-GPS, cell-id methods) and associated location protocols (e.g., RRLP, RRC, IS-801). In addition, the SET may additionally provide NMR for the radio technology used (e.g., GSM: TA, RXLEV).

Upon receiving the SUPL POS INIT message, the SLP determines which positioning protocol (RRLP, RRC, IS-801) to use based on a positioning method (posmethod) supported by the SET.

Accordingly, the SLP and the SET calculate the position of the SET by successively exchanging the positioning procedure messages (RRLP / RRC / TIA-801) several times through the SUPL POS message (S436). The position calculation is performed based on the measurement value received by the SLP from the SET (MS Assisted) or based on the assistance obtained by the SET from the SLP (MS Based).

When the SUPL positioning procedure is completed, the SLP checks whether the user who requested the position tracking is allowed in the calculated SET position by using the privacy information directly requested from the PCE or received from the PCE. As a result of the check, when notification to the SET user is required (conditionally, when the positioning of the SET is allowed), the SLP transmits a SOL NOTIFY message including a notification element to the SET (S437). Preferably, the SUPL NOTIFY message includes a session-id and a notification parameter.

Receiving the SUPL NOTIFY message, the SET recognizes that the notification by the SLP is a location-based notification, inquires whether the SET user may transmit the SET location value, and then sends the SET user's notification through a SUSP NOTIFY RESPONSE message. The response is sent to the SLP (S438). Preferably, the SUPL NOTIFY RESPONSE message includes a session-id and a Notification Response parameter, the definition and type of the notification response parameter being shown in Table 2.

[Table 2]

Accordingly, when the position calculation of the SET is completed, the SLP transmits a SUPL END message to the SET to indicate that the positioning procedure is no longer started (S439-1). In addition, the SLP is set to the SUPL agent when the notification response of the user included in the SUPL NOTIFY RESPONSE message is set to "Allowed", that is, when the SET user allows the transmission of the positioning result value (the current position of the calculated SET). MLP SLIA (Standard Location Immediate Answer) message including location value is transmitted (S439-2).

As described above, the present invention provides a notification mode parameter (Notification Mode) to the SET through the SUPL initialization message, so that the notification and / or authentication transmitted by the SLP is general (user-based notification and / or authentication). It is possible to distinguish between location based.

Hereinafter, a method of using a schedule sharing service in the first terminal will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. 6 is a flowchart illustrating a control method of a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 7A, 7B, 7C, and 7D are conceptual views illustrating the control method of FIG. 6.

In the first terminal capable of using the schedule sharing service, schedule information and attendee information are set based on the user's selection (S610 and 620).

The method of setting the schedule information and the attendee information may be set through the electronic calendar and the friend list output on the display unit 151 of the first terminal 100a as described above with reference to FIGS. 5A and 5B. have.

When setting schedule information and attendee information by the user, the controller 180 of the first terminal 100a transmits the schedule information and attendee information to the cloud server 200. That is, the controller 180 transmits schedule information including identification information of the target device corresponding to the attendee information to the cloud server 200 to the cloud server 200 (S630).

In this way, based on the identification information of the terminal corresponding to the participant is transmitted to the cloud server, the first terminal 100a is a terminal corresponding to the participant from the cloud server 200 at the date and time corresponding to the schedule information ( Hereinafter, the location information of the "target device" is received (S640). Here, the method for receiving location information of the target device received by the first terminal 100a may be performed in various ways according to the user's setting.

The location information reception method refers to a series of setting information related to location information reception, such as a location information reception interval, a location information display method, and a location information reception start point.

For example, when the start time of the schedule corresponding to the schedule information is 9:00, the user may set to receive location information of the target device from 8:30. Then, such setting information is transmitted to the cloud server 200, and the cloud server 200 may collect location information of the target device based on the setting information.

When the location information is received from the cloud server 200 through the above-described process, the controller of the first terminal 100a displays the received location information on the display unit 151 (S650). In addition, the location information is updated at predetermined time intervals or from time to time, so that the user can check the location of the target device in real time.

An embodiment of providing additional information using the schedule sharing service will be described in more detail.

As an example, the first terminal 100a may provide information on whether a participant is present to the user by using information received from the cloud server 200. Such information related to whether the participant attends may be provided from the cloud server 200 after the user transmits schedule information from the cloud server.

The cloud server 200 may transmit the schedule information to the target device and transmit a confirmation message to the attendee. And, by receiving a response message to the attendance from the target device, it is possible to collect information related to the attendees attendance.

Such information related to attendance may be transmitted to the first terminal 100a or may be transmitted on a date corresponding to schedule information when attendees attendance information is collected.

For example, as illustrated in (a) of FIG. 7A, when the time corresponding to the time information included in the schedule information is 9:00, the location information of the target device may be received from 8:30. When the reception of the location information of the target device starts as described above, the controller 180 can provide the user with the information of the participants who can attend the schedule as shown in FIG. 7A (b). For example, among the selected attendees "TOM", "SUJI", "MIKE", "FALL", and "SEMI", the information of the attendees ("TOM", "FALL", "SEMI") who can attend the event is different. It can be displayed separately from the information of attendees ("SUJI", "MIKE").

As another example, the controller 180 of the first terminal 100a may control a location display method of the target device differently in correspondence to the destination and time included in the schedule information and the current location of the target device.

For example, the controller 180 may display the location information of the target device differently according to the proximity of the destination corresponding to the destination information and the location of the target device. (Destination information-Destination-Destination set by user ~~)

The controller 180 or the cloud server 200 may calculate the estimated time required for the target device to arrive at the destination based on the schedule information based on the location information of the target device.

In addition, the controller 180 may classify and display the target device that is expected to arrive in a short time or may not arrive until the time corresponding to the schedule information by using the calculated estimated time required information.

As shown in (a) of FIG. 7B, the device indications 743 and 744 of "TOM" and "FALL" which are unlikely to arrive by a time corresponding to schedule information can be reached by a time corresponding to schedule information. MIKE "may be displayed differently from the device display 742.

As such, the controller 180 may highlight the target device that does not arrive until the time corresponding to the schedule information or is expected to arrive promptly. The highlighting method may be performed through various visual methods such as changing the display color of the target device, displaying flickering, or changing the transparency.

And, as shown in (b) of FIG. 7B, when the location information of the target devices is updated and it is expected that the device of "FALL" may arrive by a time corresponding to the schedule information, the "FALL" which has been highlighted Highlighting for the device indication 743 can be turned off.

As another example, as shown in (a) of FIG. 7C, the controller 180 sends a text message or calls to a device of "TOM" and "FALL" which may not arrive until a time corresponding to schedule information. You can output icons around the device display of "TOM" and "FALL" so that you can call (call).

In addition, the controller 180 may transmit a reminder message corresponding to the schedule information to all of the attendee devices.

As another example, as shown in (a) and (b) of FIG. 7D, when the location information of the target device is received from the cloud server 200, the controller 180 of the first terminal 100a receives the target device. Identification information or profile information may be output to the display unit 151. Accordingly, the user of the first terminal 100a may receive profile information of attendees corresponding to the target device as well as the location information of the food target device through the information output to the display unit 151.

Here, the profile information may be information related to the user's identity of the target device, such as a user's name, photo, contact, and affiliation of the target device.

When the target device location information is received from the cloud server 200, the controller 180 of the first terminal retrieves the profile information of the target device from the memory 160 and then outputs the retrieved information to the display unit 151. Can be.

In addition, the controller 180 may output the profile information of the target device transmitted from the cloud server 200 to the display unit 151.

In addition, the controller 180 may transmit a text message or transmit a call (call) in conjunction with receiving the location information of the target device.

Here, the content of the text message transmitted to the target device may be stored in advance by the user's setting or the controller 180.

As described above, the mobile terminal and the cloud system using the same according to the present invention can provide the location information of the target device to the user more effectively by displaying the location of the target device in different ways according to the location of the target device. .

As shown in FIG. 8A (a), when schedule information is received from the cloud server 200, as shown in FIG. 8A (b), the pop-up window 820 including schedule information on the display unit 151 is shown. ) May be output. In addition, the target device may be selected by the user as to whether to attend the schedule corresponding to the schedule information, based on a request of the cloud server 200.

In addition, even if there is no request from the cloud server 200, the controller 180 of the target device may determine whether to collect location information by receiving a selection from a user whether to attend the schedule.

In addition, when the user selects to attend the schedule, the controller 180 receives a selection from the user as to whether to agree to collect location information of the cloud server 200 as illustrated in (c) of FIG. 8A. Can be. Through this, the user of the target device can prevent the location information is collected indiscriminately.

As another example, as shown in FIG. 8B, the controller 180 of the target device may display a pop-up message 840 on the display unit 151 informing of schedule information based on a reminder message received from the cloud server 200. Can be output to In addition, even when the reminder message is not received from the cloud server 200, the controller 180 may output the reminder message to the user based on the schedule information received from the cloud server 200.

The mobile terminal and the cloud system using the mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention can share schedule information with the target device through the cloud server by transmitting the schedule information generated in the mobile terminal to the cloud server. Furthermore, the cloud server collects location information of the target device and provides the collected location information to the mobile terminal, whereby the mobile terminal user can be provided with the location of the target device user.
