Referring to FIG. 1, in the communication relay system according to the present invention, the terminal 100 communicates with the communication relay server 200 through a predetermined communication network, and the communication relay server 200 uses various types of services through the Internet network. It is connected with the service providing server 300 to provide.

The service providing server 300 may be any kind of messenger server that provides services such as chatting, sending a message, and sending a text message, a web server that operates a web site, and a content server that stores and provides various types of contents to subscribers. This may correspond to a server providing a service.

At this time, the communication network between the terminal 100 and the communication relay server 200 may be various communication networks such as a telephone network and the Internet network, but the communication network between the communication relay server 200 and the service providing server 300 should be an internet network. do. Therefore, in order for the service of the service providing server 300 to be provided to the terminal 100 through the communication relay server 200, the information is converted between the communication relay server 200 and the service providing server 300 according to both protocols. You need an application that matches the relays. A module that performs this role may be loaded in the communication relay server 200.

For example, the service provided from the service providing server 300 may be a short personal SNS, like Twitter, Internet TV, Internet radio, biorhythm, daily horoscopes, event quiz, new product release information, two-way conversation robot And the like. Two-way communication between the terminal 100 and the communication relay server 200 by a method such as a telephone or a messenger (that is, if the terminal 100 is a telephone, the communication relay server 200 also appears to be a telephone, and the terminal 100 is In the case of a computer device using a messenger, the communication relay server 200 also looks like a computer device using a messenger), and data communication (http, sip, audio / internet) between the communication relay server 200 and the service providing server 300. Two-way communication is performed through various existing communication methods such as video conference, and the two sections are mutually relayed to form a path between the terminal 100 and the service providing server 300 in both directions.

The communication relay server 200 may access a database including a record including terminal identification information, access information, service identification information, and a path ID. The database may be included in the communication relay server 200 or may exist separately. have.

The process of forming the communication path proceeds as follows.

The terminal 100 attempts communication while transmitting the terminal identification information and the access information to the communication relay server 200. Here, the terminal identification information means identification information that can distinguish the terminal 100, and the access information means that the communication relay server 200 is allocated and retained in order for the terminal 100 to attempt communication with the communication relay server 200. It means various telephone numbers.

If the terminal 100 attempts to communicate with the communication relay server 200 through a telephone network, such as a telephone or a mobile phone, the terminal number may be used as the terminal identification information and assigned to the communication relay server 200. Phone number can be used as access information.

If the terminal 100 is a communication terminal that forms a communication path through the Internet network using a messenger, the messenger ID may be used as terminal identification information, and the messenger ID assigned to the communication relay server 200 may be used as access information. have.

Hereinafter, the process of forming the communication path through Table 1 will be described in detail. Table 1 shows the information stored in the database.

Table 1

Terminal identification information	Connection Information	Service Identification Information	Path ID

010-2222-3333	# 1234	BBB	vxed
010-3333-4444	# 1111	CCC	oeld

When the communication relay server 200 receives the terminal identification information and the access information from the terminal 100, the communication relay server 200 then searches the database for a record containing the received terminal identification information and the access information, and search The service providing server 300 corresponding to the service identification information and the path ID of the recorded record is selected.

The communication relay server 200 transmits only the path ID and the service identification information to the selected service providing server 300 to form a communication path between the terminal 100 and the service providing server 300.

That is, only the path ID and the service identification information are transmitted to the service providing server 300, and the terminal identification information and the access information are not transmitted. Therefore, the terminal identification information of the terminal 100 is protected. That is, it is possible to prevent the leakage of personal information such as a telephone number.

In addition, since the terminal identification information and the access information are paired to identify the service to be used by the terminal 100, the type of service is not limited to the number of access information held by the communication relay server 200. That is, as shown in Table 1, when the access information is # 1111 to the terminal 100 having the terminal identification information 010-1111-2222, a service called AAA is selected, and the terminal identification information is 010-3333-. If the access information is # 1111 to the terminal 100 which is 4444, the service called CCC is selected as the service identification information. Therefore, access information is not 1: 1 dependent on a specific service, but a completely different service can be set as terminal identification information is changed, so that limited access information resources can be efficiently used.

As a result, for example, even if it has 1000 limited access information resources, the communication path is not limited to 1000. If the number of subscribers is 10,000, a path for up to 10 million different services can be established.

The above-mentioned communication path forming process is started by attempting communication in the terminal 100, but alternatively, the service providing server 300 may start by attempting communication. In detail, when the service providing server 300 attempts communication while transmitting the service identification information and the path ID to the communication relay server 200, the service identification information and the path ID received by the communication relay server 200 are provided. Search for a record including the terminal and select the terminal 100 corresponding to the terminal identification information and the access information included in the searched record, and a communication path between the service providing server 300 and the selected terminal 100 attempting communication. Will form.

In the above description, when the terminal 100 is selected as one of a telephone, a mobile phone, and an internet phone, the terminal identification information is a telephone number of the terminal 100, and the access information attempts to communicate with the communication relay server 200. It may be any one of a telephone number and a winc number.

If the terminal 100 is selected as a communication terminal such as a computer capable of using a messenger, the terminal identification information is a messenger ID used in the terminal 100, and the access information attempts to communicate with the communication relay server 200. It may be characterized in that the messenger ID to.

The owner of a personal terminal with a phone number of 010-1111-1111 wants to receive specific services from Company B, but tries to obtain services through Company A to prevent his phone number from being transferred to Company B. Company A stores records in the database consisting of 010-1111-1111 (terminal identification information), 070-1234-1234 (access information managed by A), service1 (service identification information), and ID1 (path ID). And tells 되었다고 070-1234-1234 is assigned. 로 calls the connection information 070-1234-1234. At this time, the A company's communication relay server 200 knows that a personal terminal having personal identification information 010-1111-1111 attempts to communicate with the access number 070-1234-1234. The A company's communication relay server 200 searches for a record and connects the communication to the B company's service providing server 300 according to the service identification information called service1, but notifies the B company only the path ID of ID1. Company B can not know the terminal identification information of ,, but the communication path is formed, the service can be provided.

If the record including the terminal identification information and the access information does not exist in the database in step A2, the method may further include transmitting a guide message informing the terminal 100 that attempted the communication of the error and the impossibility of access to the terminal 100 attempting communication. It may be.

A second embodiment of the communication relay method of the present invention is a service in which a communication relay server accessible to a database composed of records including terminal identification information, access information, service identification information, and a path ID attempts to communicate with the communication relay server.

A company's communication relay server 200 finds the corresponding record and connects the phone to 010-1111-1111 (terminal identification information) as if the call was received from 070-1234-1234 (connection information). If he asks Company A to delete the record so that he doesn't receive a call from Company B again, the company may lose access to Company B by deleting Company A.

A third embodiment of the communication relay method of the present invention may further include establishing a database. Therefore, the third embodiment of the communication relay method of the present invention further includes a step C of constructing a database including a record including terminal identification information, access information, service identification information, and a path ID. In this case, construction should be understood as a comprehensive concept including storing or deleting records.

If the contents of the database are changed by adding a record to the database in step C, the description of the added path using the access information of the newly added record as the calling number and the terminal identification information of the terminal as the receiving number. It may be configured to further comprise a C 'step of transmitting an SMS message indicating the.

Specifying in detail the step C for building a database may be configured as follows.

For example, User1 is a service in which the service identification information is AAA through the communication relay server 200 with access information of # 1111 through the first terminal 100 using the telephone number of 010-1111-2222 as terminal identification information. A communication path is formed with the providing server 300. Therefore, communication path formation information is stored as True.

At this time, in step D1, User1 attempts to communicate with M_ID1 using an ID of Messenger1 through the second terminal 100. In step D2, the communication relay server 200 searches for a record including Messenger1 and M_ID1 as terminal identification information and access information, respectively. Two rows of records are searched for, and user information is obtained at this time. Notice that the user information is User1. After that, in step D3, the communication relay server 200 extracts all records in which user information is User1. In the step D4, it is checked whether there is a record in which the communication path formation information is true among the extracted records. Therefore, in this case, a new communication path using the terminal identification information Messenger1 and the connection information M_ID1 is formed, and the communication path of the originally formed record line is blocked. Of course, the communication path formation information can be changed to True or False accordingly. If the path is not already established, the process of blocking the communication path is not performed.

According to a fifth embodiment of the communication relay method of the present invention, when the service providing server 300 attempts to communicate with the terminal 100, a method of sequentially attempting communication according to the priority of the terminal 100 for each user is provided.
