Description

Technology area

The invention relates to the field of providing mobile communications, in particular to means for registering a user in a mobile network. Registration, according to the information provided in the Legal Encyclopedia on the website https://yuridicheskaya_encyclopediya.academic.ru/9592/REGISTRATION, is a record, fixation of facts or phenomena for the purpose of accounting and giving them the status of officially recognized acts, as well as listing, in the ledger. Thus, registering a user in a mobile network means entering information about a user into the databases of a mobile network operator and assigning him (the user) a unique number (for example, a list line, accounting (identification data or identifiers) or another number, in particular, a phone number ).

State of the art

Connecting users to a mobile network is usually provided by placing a SIM card (identification module, Subscriber Identify Module) in a special device (for example, a mobile phone, smartphone or tablet that supports this function) and the interaction of the SIM card in the device and devices that ensure the operation of the network. At the same time, in accordance with clause 18 of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of 09.12.2014 N1342 (as amended on 03.02.2016) "On the procedure for the provision of telephone services" (together with the "Rules for the provision of telephone services"), when concluding an agreement between the operator the mobile network and the user on the provision of mobile services, and, therefore, when the user receives a SIM card from the operator, the user must present an identity document (usually a passport). In accordance with clause 6 of Article 44 of the Federal Law of 07.07.2003 N126-FZ (as amended on 07.06.2017) "On Communication" when concluding an agreement, the operator (or the person representing him) is obliged to enter into the agreement information about the user (usually passport data). Moreover, the operator is obliged to check the reliability of information about the user. This usually requires a personal contact between the user and the operator's representative, for example, at the operator's sales office.

A method and device for video authentication of a user is known from the prior art (patent RU 2504004, publication date 01/10/2014). The technical solution involves the receipt by a video capture device of a user's contrast image by generating it from video image frames, sending a contrast image to the server and comparing the obtained contrast image with user information previously loaded onto the server using a special service or software. As the user information, use is made of an authentication photo obtained during the registration of a user in the system by the same method as the contrast image, or downloaded from an external source. Additionally, the user information may contain data about the gender and age of the user entered by the user during registration. At the same time, contrast photography can also be checked for compliance with gender and age data.

The disadvantage of this technical solution is the technical impossibility of verifying the identity of the user during registration, because video identification occurs only during re-authentication, and during registration, only user data is loaded.

The closest technical solution (prototype) is the method of registration and activation of the SIM card (http://beelinenet.ru/registration, date of treatment 10.10.2017). The method is designed to register and activate a Beeline SIM card via the Internet. To do this, you need to insert the SIM card into the device (tablet, phone or modem), open a browser and enter any address. When you try to go to the entered address, the SIM card is authenticated in the mobile network. If the authentication of the SIM card in the mobile network is not possible, i.e. Since this SIM card is not registered in the mobile network, the device browser is automatically redirected to the site where it is possible to register the SIM card. To do this, information (passport data) about the user of the SIM card is entered into the operator's databases by entering them into special forms on the website and then sending them to the operator's devices that ensure their processing. At the same time, when entering information about the user, there is no verification of the accuracy of the information and verification that the information corresponds to the person registering. Also, the identification information about the SIM card is entered into the operator's databases and correlated with information about the user. As a result, the SIM card is registered in the mobile network (the operator's databases contain information about the SIM card and its user), which allows it to be authenticated and used in a mobile communication device.

The disadvantage of the prototype is the technical impossibility of verifying the user's identity, i.e. the lack of verification that the registration of the SIM card is actually carried out for the person performing the registration. In addition, the prototype provides a low speed of user registration due to completely manual input of all data.

The technical result of the proposed invention is to expand the functionality of the device by providing confirmation of the authenticity of the identity of the mobile user, including during the initial registration.

The specified technical result is achieved due to the fact that in the method for remote registration of a mobile communication user by means of a mobile communication device equipped with a shooting module and a touch screen, characterized in that a document confirming the identity of a mobile communication user is photographed by the shooting module, forming an electronic file corresponding to the image document identifying the identity of the mobile user, recognizing text data from the electronic file corresponding to the image of the document confirming the identity of the mobile user, photographing by the shooting module of the mobile user, generating an electronic file corresponding to the photograph of the mobile user, comparing the image of the mobile user from file corresponding to the image of the identity document of the mobile user, with the image of the mobile user from the file, corresponding storing a photo of a mobile communication user, for the fact that these images of a mobile communication user correspond to the same person, memorize identification data, store a file corresponding to an image of a document confirming the identity of a mobile communication user, store text data from an electronic file corresponding to an image of a document identifying the identity of the mobile communication user, set the correspondence between the identification data and the recognized text data from the electronic file corresponding to the image of the identity document of the mobile communication user, generate a signal about the completion of the remote registration procedure of the mobile communication user.

Disclosure of invention

A method for remote registration of mobile communication users by means of a mobile communication device equipped with a shooting module and a touch screen (hereinafter sometimes referred to as a method) can be carried out by means of a system consisting of a mobile communication device of a user and equipment of a mobile operator. To disclose the method, the following is a description of devices and equipment used to implement this method.

Mobile communication is a type of radiotelephone communication in which end devices (mobile communication devices) transmit a signal to each other using a mobile network - a set of special transceivers (base stations). Base stations communicate with each other using fixed communication channels or using radio waves, and with served mobile communication devices using radio waves (information is presented in the source https://dic.academic.ru/dic.nsf/es/82809/MOBILE , date of treatment 10/12/2017).

A mobile communication device is a radio-technical device that provides communication with other devices via a mobile network. A mobile communication device is a complex electronic device consisting of a plurality of interconnected blocks and modules located in a housing. In a particular case, the elements of the mobile communication device are a touch screen 1, an identification data module 3, a shooting module 2, a first transceiver unit 4, a first processing unit 9, a first control unit 11, a power unit, a first memory unit 12 (http: / /highscreen.ru/news/Ustroistvo_smartfona/, appeal date 10/13/2017). In addition, a mobile communication device may also include any of the following items: speaker, microphone, push button switch, connectors for connecting other devices, or connectors for connecting to other devices. The main, considered within the framework of this technical solution, the function of a mobile communication device is to interact with a mobile network with the ability to exchange signals with other mobile communication devices. As a mobile communication device, for example, a smartphone, a communicator (pocket personal computer with the function of a mobile phone), a tablet computer can be used.

Further in the text, a user should be understood as a person who uses a specific mobile communication device and registers in the mobile network on his own behalf using the proposed technical solution. It should be understood that any person can perform the actions described below using the proposed technical solution, and not directly the user.

The main elements of the system are the touch screen 1, the identification data module 3, the shooting module 2, the first transceiver unit 4, the first processing unit 9, the first control unit 11, the first memory unit 12 and the power unit (all are included in the mobile communication device) , as well as the second transceiver unit 13, the second processing unit 6, the second control unit 8, the power supply unit and the second memory unit 5 (all are included in the equipment of the mobile operator).

The touch screen 1 is a touch-sensitive device (or device element) that provides visual information display and sensory input of information. The sensitive part of the touch screen 1 is a set of individual sensors. The touch screen 1 is configured to enter text information into specially formed groups of sensors (i.e., input fields) using specially selected groups of sensors, each of which corresponds to a certain symbol, letter, number, punctuation mark (i.e., using a virtual keyboard).

The identification data module 3 is an element in the device that provides storage of unique identification data (for example, one or more identification numbers, codes) and provides protection against unauthorized access to these identification data in order to prevent misuse. Protection should be understood as the actual impossibility of changing, deleting, adding identification information spontaneously or at the initiative of one of the parties (user, mobile network operator) without the consent of the other party, as well as the impossibility of access to it by a person who is not a mobile network operator or user. The identification data module 3 can be either one element or consist of several separate elements electrically connected in some way. The identification data module 3 is located in the mobile communication device in a specially designated area. The identification data module 3 can be configured to be removed from the mobile communication device or not. Also, the identification data module 3 can be made with the possibility of changing (in the case of lawful use, i.e. with the consent of all interested parties) identification data or without it. As the identification data module 3, it is possible to use the most common material SIM card, an electronic SIM (also called hereinafter e-SIM, or SIM in the form of a chip) or a specially allocated section in the first memory block 12 of a mobile communication device, protected in a special way, like this described above. In the case of each specific variant of the identification data module 3, the design of the mobile communication device is changed so that the correct operation of the identification data module 3 is ensured.

In the case of using 3 conventional material SIM cards of various formats (for example, mini-SIM, micro-SIM, nano-SIM) as an identification data module, a special holder is made in the mobile communication device, which provides the physical placement of the SIM card and contains contacts (connector ) to connect to the contacts of the SIM card. In the case of using an e-SIM 3 as an identification data module, a special socket for placing a chip is made in the mobile communication device, containing contacts for connection with the e-SIM contacts, while these contacts are connected to each other without the possibility of opening, for example, using soldering. In the case of using a dedicated section as an identification data module 3 in the first memory block 12, mobile communication devices provide protection to said dedicated section so that the identification data stored therein are protected in the above manner. The use of the identification data module 3 in the form of an e-SIM or a dedicated section in the first memory unit 12 of the mobile communication device makes it possible to change the identification data (for example, when changing the operator) without replacing the identification data module 3, i.e. provides a reduction in material costs when replacing data.

The identification data module 3 can be additionally accompanied by material carriers containing identification data in a form that allows them to be visually perceived and recognized, for example, in the form of a code, in particular, a barcode and its corresponding number (in particular, a material SIM card up to placement in a mobile communication device is usually fixed in a plastic card with dimensions of 54 × 86 × 0.76 mm ³ ). In this case, the identification data is usually encrypted in a special way.

Capture module 2 (which can also be called a photo-video module) is a part of the device that provides a photographic image of the required objects. In this case, the term "shooting" should be understood, inter alia, as the process of image, capturing something in any way (in accordance with the value 15 in the source https://dic.academic.ru/dic.nsf/ushakov/ 1032590, date of circulation 10/13/2017). One of the main elements of the imaging module 2 is the optical system. The shooting module 2 is placed in the body of the mobile communication device so that the optical system is facing outward, i.e. outside the case of the mobile device. In a particular case, a mobile communication device can have two imaging modules 2 facing their optical system in opposite directions. As the shooting module 2, a camera with the possibility of obtaining a photographic image is usually used. In this case, the shooting module 2 must be made with the possibility of obtaining files of certain graphic formats corresponding to photographic images of an identity document, a code on a material medium, i.e. possess characteristics that ensure the receipt of high-quality (contrast, clear, with the required resolution) photographic image. Moreover, a file of a certain graphic format should be understood as an electrical signal corresponding to the data of the obtained photographic images. The presence of the shooting module 2 prevents the possibility of data forgery during registration, because provides the ability to obtain data in real time (a photo of a real person in front of the shooting module 2 and a document that a person has at a given time).

The first control unit 11 is an element that controls all other elements of the mobile communication device. The first processing unit 9 is an element that provides the necessary data processing necessary for the normal functioning of the mobile communication device. The first processing unit 9 and the first control unit 11 can be structurally combined into the first functional unit 10. A microprocessor can be used as the first functional unit 10, including with its own memory and software. The first functional unit 10 may not contain its own memory, but use the first memory unit 12 as part of a mobile communication device.

The first block of memory 12 is a data storage element. In the first block of memory 12, a partition may be allocated for storing identification data, i. E. in the particular case of the implementation of the identification data module 3. Also, the data of the photo images obtained by the capturing module 2, data corresponding to the information inputted by the touch screen 1 can be recorded in the first memory unit 12.

The second processing unit 6 is a complex device consisting of several interconnected elements or one element and allowing all the necessary processing of the data received from the mobile communication device. As part of the second processing unit 6, there may be elements that allow performing the following functions: recognition of a visually perceptible and recognizable code, for example, a barcode, on a photographic image of a material medium accompanying an identification data module 3, recognition of text data and a photographic image of the owner on a passport photograph obtained by the shooting module 2, the formation of a high-quality photographic image of the user, the comparison of the photographic image recognized in the passport photo with the photographic image received from the shooting module, the formation of a user profile (i.e., the formation of a connection between the identification data of the identification data module 3 and the user's personal data in the form of passport data). Each element of the second processing unit 6 can be made as a separate element. Some elements of the second processing unit 6 can be grouped and presented as a single device or made in the form of a single device. In addition, the second processing unit 6 can be made in the form of a computing device using programs (or one program) installed in the second memory unit 5, with each program performing the functions of a corresponding element in the second processing unit 6 (or performing the required processing in general ). In this case, the second memory block 5 is included in the second processing block 6 or the second processing block 6 itself contains a corresponding element identical in function to the second memory block 5.

The second control unit 8 is an element that controls all other elements: the second processing unit 6, the second memory unit 5 and the second transmitting-receiving unit 13.

The second processing unit 6 and the second control unit 8 can be structurally executed as separate elements connected in some way, or as part of one element of the second functional unit 7. A processor can be used as the second functional unit 7, including with its own memory and software. The second functional block 7 may not contain its own memory, but use the second memory block 5.

The second block of memory 5 is an element for storing data. In the second memory unit 5, data of photographic images received from the mobile communication device by the first transmitting and receiving unit 4 and the second receiving and transmitting unit 13, information recognized thereon, information data entered through the touch screen 1 and received from the mobile communication device can be recorded by means of the second receiving-transmitting unit 13 and the first transmitting-receiving unit 4.

The transceiver unit (the first transceiver unit 4 or the second transceiver unit 13) is an element capable of receiving signals from a mobile network and transmitting signals from a mobile network, usually via radio waves or cable, or a combination thereof.

The power supply is a device for supplying all elements with electricity. For example, batteries can be used as power supplies.

The microphone is a device for detecting acoustic vibrations in the air and measuring their parameters (Ultrasound. Little encyclopedia. Chief editor IP Golyamina. M .: Soviet encyclopedia, 1979, 400 p, p. 270).

The speaker is a device for converting electrical vibrations into sound ones (in accordance with the Encyclopedic Dictionary https://dic.academic.ru/dic.nsf/es/19254/dynamic, date of treatment 10/24/2017). The speaker is located in the case of the mobile device so that the wide part of the speaker cone faces the holes in the cabinet and the sound from the speaker passes through these holes.

A pushbutton switch is a switch that operates (closes or opens an electrical circuit) from (more often - axial) movement of the drive in the form of a button due to the impact on it of the pressing force of a human operator (in accordance with GOST 22614-77 "Switches and switches push-button. General ergonomic requirements "). Pushbutton switches are located in the openings in the housing of the mobile communication device, and they can be located on any part of the housing free from other elements.

The connector is a means of connecting external and internal electrical circuits designed to transmit information or energy from the corresponding elements of the mobile communication device or to them in the form of an electrical signal.

Each of the elements of the mobile communication device is located in the housing so that other elements of the mobile communication device do not interfere with its normal operation. The identification data module 3, the shooting module 2, the touch screen 1 are connected to the first control unit 11 with the possibility of transmitting corresponding electrical signals to it and receiving control signals from it. The touch screen 1 is electrically connected to the first memory unit 12 directly or through the first control unit 11 with the possibility of transmitting or receiving signals from it. The first processing unit 9 is connected to the identification data module 3, the shooting module 2, the touch screen 1 with the possibility of receiving electrical signals from them, and is also electrically connected to the first control unit 11. The first transceiver unit 4 is connected to the first control unit 11 with the possibility receiving and transmitting signals from it, and is also electrically connected to the first memory unit 12 and the first processing unit 9 directly or through the first control unit 11. The first memory unit 12 is electrically connected to the first processing unit 9 directly or through the first control unit 11 with the possibility receiving and transmitting data from it. All volatile elements of the mobile communication device are connected to an appropriate power supply. Also, in the case of the presence of additional elements in the composition of the mobile communication device, their connection with the corresponding other elements of the mobile communication device is ensured.

Elements of mobile operator equipment can be installed in one housing, or each of the elements can be installed in a separate housing.

The second processing unit 6 is electrically connected to the second control unit 8, electrically connected to the second transmitting and receiving unit 13 and to the second memory unit 5 directly or via the second control unit 8. The second transmitting and receiving unit 13 and the second memory unit can also be electrically connected with the second control unit 8 with the possibility of receiving control signals from it. All volatile elements are connected to the appropriate power supply.

Implementation of the invention

In the case of using the above elements and means, the invention is implemented as follows.

All operations of the proposed technical solution are implemented by the elements that are part of the object that implements as an example, are widely known and do not require special manufacturing (for example, various touch screens 1 are presented in the source https://sensis.ru/cat/sensornoe-oborudovanie/sensornye -ekrany /, access date 10.24.2017, parts of the case are presented in the source https://www.partsdirect.ru/smartphones/spareparts_smartphone/, access date 10.24.2017, shooting module 2 - https: // addroid. ru / remont_zapchasti / smartfony / kamery /, date of circulation 10.24.2017, power supply 9

https://addroid.ru/remont_zapchasti/smartfony/akkumulyatory/, date of treatment 10.24.2017).

All elements of the mobile communication device, with the exception of the identification data module 3, in the case of its implementation as a material SIM-card, are interconnected and installed in the housing as described above. Then the necessary software is installed on the mobile device (at least an operating system). Usually, the assembly and installation of the operating system is carried out at the manufacturing plant of the mobile communication device, and all the necessary software can also be installed at the manufacturing plant. The rest of the software can also be installed by the sellers of the mobile communication device or by the user himself after downloading it, for example, from the Internet over a network, in particular Wi-Fi.

The remaining elements of the proposed system, i.e. the elements of equipment located on the side of the mobile operator are interconnected as described above and placed accordingly (for example, in a certain room). Then, in the second functional block 7, the necessary software is installed, including ensuring the performance of the functions of the second processing block 6.

To use his mobile communication device, the user acquires a tangible SIM card and, if available, the accompanying tangible carriers in the case of the identification data module 3 as a tangible SIM card. In the case of the implementation of the identification data module 3 as an electronic SIM card or as a dedicated memory section, the user purchases only material carriers containing identification data, usually in encrypted form. Moreover, the places of purchase within the framework of the proposed technical solution are not limited to the sales offices of the mobile network operator, but can be different (for example, a vending machine on the street or indoors, a grocery store, a supermarket or a hypermarket, etc.). This is due to the fact that the conclusion of an agreement on the provision of communication services, and, accordingly, the registration of the identification data module 3 may not be carried out at the place of purchase, since there is no need for a representative of the operator to check the incoming information.

When registering, there is no need to place the identification data module 3 in a mobile communication device when the identification data module 3 is executed as a material SIM card or the need to enter identification data into the identification data module 3 when it is executed as an electronic SIM card or a dedicated memory section. Depending on whether the user performs the actions indicated in the previous sentence, the list of actions when using the technical solution will differ, the differences are described below. In this case, the cases are considered when the mobile communication device did not contain an identification data module 3 with identification data prior to use.

If the user places the identification data module 3, when it is executed as a physical SIM card, in a mobile communication device or adds identification data to the identification data module 3, when it is executed as an electronic SIM card or a dedicated memory partition, the user performs the following actions.

In the case of the identification data module 3 in the form of a material SIM card, the user places the identification data module 3 (material SIM card) in a special holder in the mobile communication device, while the contacts of the material SIM card must be in contact with the contacts of the special holder.

In the case of an identification data module 3 in the form of an electronic SIM card or a dedicated memory section, the user adds identification data from the accompanying material carriers to the identification data module 3 in the manner provided for by the type of identification data module 3. For example, for an electronic SIM card on a material the carrier may contain a code that the user enters into the first functional unit 10 via the touch screen 1. The specified code is sent by the first transceiver unit 4 of the mobile communication device to a special server, in response, data from the mobile operator is sent from the server (including credentials), which a special service sends to the server upon request. The specified data is stored on an electronic SIM card. Information on the principle of downloading data to an electronic SIM card is presented in the source http://ichip.ru/chip-vmesto-sim-kart.html, date of treatment 10/26/2017.

Then, in the first functional block 10, the registration software is started. The launch of the specified software can be provided both in automatic mode and in manual mode by the user. For example, when the mobile communication device is turned on, the first functional unit 10 can detect the identification data module 3, determine its status (registered or not) by sending a mobile network signal, and launch the software in the absence of the identification data module 3 with identification data or in the absence register it. Also, the user can launch the software with his own hand after turning on the mobile communication device by acting on the group of sensors of the touch screen 1, which provides the direction of the start signal to the first functional unit 10, or acting on the pushbutton switch providing the same function. Through the sensors (or groups of sensors) of the touch screen 1, the interface of this software is displayed, allowing the user to add the necessary information, including using other elements of the mobile communication device, for example, the imaging module 2.

Further actions are carried out while the software is running, while the procedure can be changed. Remember identification data. For this purpose, the identification data of the identification data module 3 is entered into the first functional block 10. In case the user has placed the identification data module 3 when it is executed as a material SIM card in a mobile communication device or added identification data to the identification data module 3 when it is executed as electronic SIM card or a dedicated memory section, the first functional unit 10 receives a signal (having previously sent a request signal) from the identification data module 3 corresponding to the identification data. If the user has not placed the identification data module 3 in the mobile communication device or has not added identification data, the user can enter identification data (for example, a number corresponding to a barcode on a material medium) by himself by acting on the groups of sensors corresponding to the symbols of the virtual keyboard ... Also, the user, using the capture module 2, can obtain a photographic image of the material carrier with visually displayed identification data. The signal corresponding to the entered identification data or the photographic image of the material medium is sent from the shooting module 2 to the first functional unit 10 or the first memory unit 12 for further transmission to the second functional unit 7 by means of the transceiver units (the first receiving and transmitting unit 4 and the second receiving and transmitting unit 13) ... In the case of receiving a signal corresponding to the photographic image, the second functional unit 7 additionally performs actions to ensure recognition of identification data on the photographic image of the material carrier (for example, barcode recognition). The second functional unit 7 provides at least temporary storage of identification data (usually in encrypted form) until the end of registration in its own memory or in the second memory unit 5 (for this purpose, a corresponding signal is sent to it).

A document confirming the identity of a mobile communication user is photographed by means of the shooting unit, forming an electronic file corresponding to an image of an identity document of a mobile communication user. In this case, the user enters information from an identity document (usually a passport) into the first functional unit 10 or into the first memory unit 12. To do this, using the capture module 2, the user receives a photographic image of the document. The signal corresponding to the photo image of the document is sent from the capturing module 2 to the first functional unit 10 or the first memory unit 12 for further transmission to the second functional unit 7 by means of the transmitting and receiving units (the first receiving and transmitting unit 4 and the second receiving and transmitting unit 13). Text data is recognized from an electronic file corresponding to the image of the identity document of a mobile user. In this case, in the second functional unit 7, textual information from the document is recognized, usually the last name, first name, patronymic, document number and other necessary information, and the photographic image of the owner presented in the document. The file corresponding to the image of the identity document of the mobile communication user is stored, and text data from the electronic file corresponding to the image of the identity document of the mobile communication user is stored. The second functional unit 7 provides at least temporary storage of textual information and a photographic image from the document until the end of registration in its own memory or in the second memory unit 5 (for this purpose, a corresponding signal is sent to it).

Photographed by means of the shooting module of the mobile communication user, forming an electronic file corresponding to the photo image of the mobile communication user. In this case, information about the person conducting the registration is entered into the first functional unit 10 or into the first memory unit 12, i.e. located in front of the shooting module 2. For this, the user with the help of the shooting module 2 receives his photo image. The signal corresponding to the user's photo image is sent from the capturing unit 2 to the first functional unit 10 or the first memory unit 12 for further transmission to the second functional unit 7 by means of the transmitting and receiving units (the first receiving and transmitting unit 4 and the second receiving and transmitting unit 13). Also, in the second functional block 7, one photographic image is selected from the photographs or a photographic image with a user is generated that is most suitable for comparison with a photographic image from a document (i.e., is sufficiently clear, contrasting, bright). The second functional unit 7 provides at least temporary storage of the user's photo image until the end of registration in its own memory or in the second memory unit 5 (for this purpose, a corresponding signal is sent to it). Then, the image of the mobile communication user from the file corresponding to the image of the identity document of the mobile communication user is compared with the image of the mobile communication user from the file corresponding to the photo image of the mobile communication user received from the capturing module, to ensure that these images of the mobile communication user correspond to to the same person. In this case, the second functional block 7 compares the user's photo image from the document and the user's photo image received from the capturing unit, in order to provide a conclusion about whether the same person is depicted on these photo images or different. Registration is possible only if the same person is depicted on the indicated photographs.

The sending of signals corresponding to the received data indicated above to the second functional unit 7 by means of the transmitting and receiving units (the first receiving and transmitting unit 4 and the second receiving and transmitting unit 13) can be carried out as immediately after receiving each type of data (i.e., sequentially), and only after receiving all the specified data. In this case, a check that all the necessary information has been received is carried out in the first functional block 10 or in the second functional block 7 when sending data sequentially. With the simultaneous sending of all the received data at once the specified check is carried out in the second functional block 7.

A signal is generated on completion of the procedure for remote registration of a mobile user. After the second functional unit 7 receives all the necessary information, the introduction of which is indicated above, as well as the successful completion of all these checks, from the second functional unit 7 to the mobile communication device through the transmitting and receiving units (the first receiving and transmitting unit 4 and the second receiving and transmitting unit 13) send a signal about the completion of registration, which ensures the possibility of further use of the mobile communication device for its intended purpose.

Also, in the second functional block 7, a user profile file can be generated. If the received information has been stored in the second memory unit 5, signals corresponding to the received information are pre-sent from the second memory unit 5 to the second functional unit 7. The correspondence of identification data, recognized text data from the electronic file, corresponding to the image of the document and identifying the identity of the mobile communication user is set. To generate a questionnaire file, a correspondence is established between the obtained identification data of the identification data module 3, the document information. Then from the second functional unit 7 to the second memory unit 5 for further storage send a signal corresponding to the file of the questionnaire. The signal corresponding to the questionnaire file can also be sent by means of the first transmitting-receiving unit 4 to other equipment of the mobile operator, providing permanent data storage.

Thus, the implementation of the technical solution in the manner described above provides an increase in functionality by providing confirmation of the identity of the user. This is due to the fact that the proposed method provides for the capture of the user and his identity document, recognition of the user's photo image and document data on the received photo image of the document, as well as comparison of the user on the photo image from the document and the user in front of the shooting module. In addition, due to the fact that the receipt and processing of data is carried out by means of the system without manual input of text data and manual download of files with photo images, a higher speed of user registration in the mobile operator's network is provided.
