Then, when the user of the mobile communication device 600 enters and leaves the screening hall 304, the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 refers to the information held by the electronic ticket issuing device 100, and the electronic ticket held by the mobile communication device 600. While confirming the information 91, it is possible to notify the privilege provision management server 301 of confirmation of entry and exit of the mobile communication device 600.

  Moreover, in the function management system 500 according to the present embodiment, the function restriction information 70 for the function restriction management server 303 to stop a predetermined function among the functions of the mobile communication device 600 when the movie screening start time comes. Can be transmitted to the portable communication device 600, and the portable communication device 600 can stop the function of the portable communication device 600. For this reason, it is possible to prevent other audiences from being disturbed during the movie due to the sound of the doorbell of the mobile communication device 600 or noise caused by a call. Therefore, the operator who operates the movie theater 300 can provide the audience with movie watching in a quiet environment, and can increase sales by differentiating from other movie theaters. In addition, the operator can prevent unauthorized photographing or recording by the camera function or voice record function of the mobile communication device 600.

  Also, in the function management system 500 according to the present embodiment, when the movie performance is finished and the user of the mobile communication device 600 leaves the screening venue 304, the electronic ticket issuing device 100 holds the electronic ticket confirmation device 302. The electronic ticket information 91 held by the mobile communication device 600 is confirmed with reference to the information to be performed. In this way, it is possible to confirm the leaving of the mobile communication device 600 and notify the privilege providing management server 301 of the leaving of the mobile communication device 600.

  Then, in response to the notification from the electronic ticket confirmation device 302, the privilege provision management server 301 takes over a part of the price of the ticket cost to the user of the mobile communication device 600 that has left, or receives service video or image data. It is possible to provide a privilege such as providing the user of the mobile communication device 600.

  For this reason, although the user who has the portable communication apparatus 600 suffers the disadvantage accompanying the stop of the function which the said portable communication apparatus 600 has, the gain called privilege can be obtained from the privilege provision management server 301 as this compensation.

  Further, as described above, the privilege provision management server 301 is a privilege providing destination according to the information notified by the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 indicating that the mobile communication device 600 has entered or exited the screening venue 304. In this configuration, the mobile communication device 600 can be specified. For this reason, the privilege provision management server 301 can know the period until the mobile communication device 600 enters the screening venue 304 and exits. Therefore, the privilege provision management server 301 does not manage to provide a privilege to the mobile communication device 600 that has entered and exited the screening venue 304, but the function restriction information 70 is transmitted from the function restriction management server 303. It is possible to manage so that a privilege can be provided only to the mobile communication device 600 that has existed in the screening venue 304 during the selected period.

  If the mobile communication device 600 is configured to control at least a part of the functions of the mobile communication device 600 as soon as it enters the screening hall 304, the privilege provision management server 301 performs the electronic ticket confirmation. The configuration may be such that the mobile communication device 600 as a privilege providing destination is determined and managed only in response to a notification indicating that the mobile communication device 600 has entered the screening venue 304 from the device 302.

Data of content that provides preliminary knowledge and the like may be transmitted to the mobile communication device 600. In this case, the function restriction management server 303 may newly include a storage device for storing the content data, or the function restriction information management table 71 may store the content data.

  As described above, the movie theater 300 can provide information (content) that is a benefit to the user of the mobile communication device 600 as a privilege even before the start of the screening.

  Further, the content distributed from the function restriction management server 303 before the movie is shown may include commercial data of sponsors related to the movie showing. In this way, instead of advertising a sponsor in the movie theater 300, the movie theater 300 can obtain an advertisement fee from the sponsor.

  Further, this content may include notice information for notifying the user that the restriction is started before the function of the mobile communication device is restricted. As described above, in the content distributed before the screening of the movie, the limitation of the functions of the mobile communication device 600 is started for the movie viewer, that is, the user of the mobile communication device 600, by including the advance notice information. Can be notified.

  When movie screening starts, a packet including function restriction information 70 shown in FIG. 5 is transmitted from the function restriction management server 303 to the mobile communication device 600 via the AP 305. As a result, in the mobile communication device 600, the function restriction unit 84 controls the functions of the mobile communication device 600 (for example, the camera function, the mail function, the telephone (call function), and the Internet connection function) not to be executed. To do. For this reason, a user who came to watch a movie uses the functions of the mobile communication device 600 to transmit the contents of the movie to the outside, take a picture of the movie without permission, or take a picture of the surrounding audience. Can be prevented from causing trouble.

  Further, in a break time or the like, a packet including the function restriction information 70 shown in FIG. 7 is transmitted from the function restriction management server 303 to the mobile communication device 600. As a result, each function (for example, a camera function, a mail function, a telephone (call function), and an Internet connection function) that cannot be used in the mobile communication device 600 can be used during the break time.

  As described above with an example, in the movie theater 300, the function restriction management server 303 appropriately selects the function restriction information 70 according to the contents of a service such as a movie provided to the user, and performs mobile communication. By transmitting to the apparatus 600, it is possible to prevent nuisance to other spectators such as unauthorized photographing, recording, or telephone conversation in the exhibition hall 304.

(Configuration of the function restriction management server)
Here, a schematic configuration of the function restriction management server 303 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 7 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of the function restriction management server 303 according to the present embodiment.

  On the other hand, regarding the mobile communication device 600 of the user who purchased the ticket at the ticket sales counter of the movie theater 300, an instruction is given to switch off the main power supply of the mobile communication device 600 on the screen of the in-house broadcast or movie. In this way, all the main power sources of the mobile communication device 600 in the exhibition hall 304 are turned off.

(Management flow 2 of portable communication device as a privilege providing destination)
Here, the flow of processing related to the management process in which the privilege provision management server 301 manages the mobile communication device 600 as a privilege provision destination according to the notification from the electronic ticket issuing device 100 and the notification from the carrier 200 will be described. To do. FIG. 16 is a flowchart for explaining the flow of processing relating to management processing as another embodiment of the present invention for managing the mobile communication device 600 as a privilege providing destination.

  First, the mobile communication device 600 receives a ticket (S30). The portable communication device 600 may receive this ticket from the electronic ticket issuing device 100 or may be issued at a ticket sales window of the movie theater 300. When the ticket is purchased, the user who owns the portable communication device 600 enters the movie theater 300. At the time of entry, the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 checks the ticket and confirms the entry of the user who owns the mobile communication device 600 (S31). In other words, the mobile communication device 600 that has been issued an electronic ticket confirms the electronic ticket information 91 by the electronic ticket confirmation device 302. On the other hand, when the ticket is purchased at the ticket sales window, the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 confirms the information stored in the IC tag provided in the sold ticket by the IC tag reader provided in itself.

  Then, when the ticket is checked and the entrance confirmation is obtained, the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 notifies the privilege provision management server 301 of the entrance time of the mobile communication device 600 (S32). In addition, when notifying the admission time, the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 also notifies the communication device identification information 93 of the mobile communication device 600 that has confirmed admission. And according to the notification from this electronic ticket confirmation apparatus 302, the privilege provision management server 301 records the entrance time of the portable communication apparatus 600 in the privilege provision database 306 (S33). The privilege provision management server 301 also records the communication device identification information 93 received from the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 in the privilege provision database 306 when recording the entrance time.

  Here, the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 notifies the privilege providing management server 301 of the entry time and the communication device identification information 93, while the electronic ticket information 91 is sent to the portable communication device 600 that has purchased the electronic ticket. Based on the included wireless LAN setting information 92, an instruction is given to set the wireless LAN so as to establish a connection with the AP 305. In response to the instruction from the electronic ticket confirmation device 302, the mobile communication device 600 that has purchased the electronic ticket sets up a wireless LAN and establishes a connection with the AP 305.

  When a user having the mobile communication device 600 enters the screening hall 304 and the screening time comes, the main power of the mobile communication device 600 is turned off (S34). That is, the mobile communication device 600 that has established a connection with the AP 305 turns off the main power supply of the mobile communication device 600 at the screening venue 304 based on the function restriction information 70 transmitted from the function restriction management server 303. . On the other hand, for the mobile communication device 600 for which the connection with the AP 305 has not been established, that is, the ticket has been purchased at the ticket sales window, the mobile communication device 600 is broadcast by the in-house broadcast or the video streamed on the screen. Notify the main power to be turned off. This notification of instructing to turn off the main power in the in-house broadcasting can be realized by instructing the function restriction management server 303 to send an announcement instructing to turn off the main power to the speakers provided in the exhibition hall 304. In addition, when a video for instructing to turn off the main power is displayed on the screen, the function restriction management server 303 instructs the projector 307 to display a video indicating this notification on the screen. Thus, when instructing to turn off the main power supply of the mobile communication device 600 by the in-house broadcast or the video on the screen, in the function restriction management server 303, the power-off notification unit 66 controls the management server main control before starting the screening. An instruction is given to the speaker or the projector 307 through the output control unit 60 via the unit 65.

  When the movie starts, the base station 201 of the carrier 200 starts monitoring whether or not the mobile communication device 600 is turned on (S35). When the screening of the movie ends, the base station 201 ends the monitoring as to whether or not the main power source of the mobile communication device 600 is turned on (S36).

  And the base station 201 notifies the privilege provision management server 301 of the result information monitored about the presence or absence of the portable communication apparatus 600 which the main power supply switched to ON to the privilege provision management server 301 through the communication network 400 (S37). When receiving the notification of the result information from the base station 201, the privilege provision management server 301 records this notification in the privilege provision database 306 (S38). In other words, based on the notification from the base station 201, the privilege provision management server 301 records information indicating the presence / absence of the mobile communication device 600 whose main power source is turned on among the entrance / exit information 94 in the privilege provision database 306.

  When the movie ends and the user who owns the portable communication device 600 leaves the movie theater 300, the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 confirms the ticket (S39). That is, the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 confirms the electronic ticket information 91 with respect to the portable communication device 600 that holds the electronic ticket information 91 in the same manner as when entering the venue. On the other hand, when a ticket is purchased at a ticket sales window, the information stored in the IC tag provided in the ticket is read and confirmed by the IC tag reader.

  Then, the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 notifies the privilege providing management server 301 of the leaving time of the mobile communication device 600 that has been confirmed to leave the movie theater (S40).

  When the exit time of the mobile communication device 600 is notified from the electronic ticket confirmation device 302, the privilege provision management server 301 stores the privilege provision database 306 in the privilege provision database 306 (S41). That is, the privilege provision management server 301 records the exit time of each mobile communication device 600 in the entrance / exit information 94 in the privilege provision database 306.

  Then, the privilege provision management server 301 determines whether the entry / exit of the mobile communication device 600 has been confirmed based on the entrance / exit information 94 of the mobile communication device 600 (S42). If the entry / exit confirmation can be obtained in this determination (“YES” in S42), then the privilege providing management server 301 determines whether the main power source of the mobile communication device 600 for which the entry / exit confirmation has been taken is turned on. Is determined (S43). If the main power supply of the mobile communication device 600 is not switched ON in this determination (“NO” in S43), the mobile communication device 600 is identified as the mobile communication device 600 that is a privilege providing destination (S44). Then, for example, an instruction is given to the settlement processing server or the like so as to give a privilege to the specified mobile communication device 600 (S45).

  As described above, in the function management system 500 according to the present embodiment, in the case of the mobile communication device 600 that purchased the electronic ticket from the electronic ticket issuing device 100, the main power OFF transmitted from the function restriction management server 303 is turned off. Based on the function restriction information 70 to be instructed, the main power supply of the mobile communication device 600 can be turned off. In addition, in the case of the portable communication device 600 possessed by a user who bought a ticket at a ticket sales window and has entered, the power can be turned off by notifying the main power supply to be turned off by broadcasting in the building or the like.

  In addition, since the base station 201 includes the power supply monitoring unit 56, it is possible to monitor the presence / absence of the mobile communication device 600 in which the main power source is turned on during the movie showing time at the exhibition hall 304. In addition, since the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 is provided, the entrance / exit to the screening venue 304 of the mobile communication device 600 can be confirmed.

  Further, the privilege provision management server 301 indicates the entry / exit time of the mobile communication device 600 transmitted from the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 and the presence / absence of the mobile communication device 600 with the main power source notified from the base station 201 being ON. Based on the information, the mobile communication device 600 as a privilege providing destination can be specified. Therefore, in the function management system 500, a privilege is provided to the mobile communication device 600 that surely enters the screening venue 304 to watch a movie, and the main power source of the mobile communication device 600 remains off during the screening time. be able to. In other words, the function management system 500 may purchase a ticket, actually visit the screening hall 304, and only the mobile communication device 600 whose main power is surely turned off during the screening time may be a privilege providing destination. it can.

  It should be noted that the function management system 500 is configured to give penalties to the mobile communication device 600 in which the main power supply is not reliably turned off during the screening time. As the penalty, for example, the ticket fee is charged at a regular fee without being reduced, or a fee that is added to the regular fee is charged. Alternatively, a separate fee may be charged to the user of the mobile communication device 600 as a penalty.

  By the way, in the above-described configuration, the function management system 500 makes it possible to use the call function during the period when the mobile communication device 600 temporarily uses the call function in the exhibition hall 304. This is realized when the mobile communication device 600 receives the function restriction information 70 indicating an instruction. Therefore, this period can be managed by the function restriction management server 303. On the other hand, the base station 201 can monitor whether or not a call is actually made even though the call function is stopped.

  Therefore, in function management system 500 according to the present embodiment, it is possible to confirm whether or not the call is in a period permitted by function restriction information 70 transmitted from function restriction management server 303. When the mobile communication device 600 makes a call during the period when the call function is permitted in accordance with the function restriction information 70 transmitted from the function restriction management server 303, the mobile communication device 600 determines whether the privilege is provided. However, when the mobile communication device 600 uses the call function in the exhibition hall 304 in other periods, it may be configured not to be a privilege providing destination. In addition, the mobile communication device 600 that has not been selected as a privilege providing destination is not given a privilege and the ticket fee is not reduced.

  The ticket price to be reduced may be a fixed amount, but for example, even if the reduction amount is determined in proportion to the period when the function of the mobile communication device 600 is limited. Good. Alternatively, the amount of reduction may be changed according to the number of times the user uses the movie theater 300. For example, 10% of the ticket fee is reduced for the first time, but 11% for the second time, 12% for the third time, and so on. You can earn a lot.

  As described above, in the function management system 500 according to the present embodiment, the main power source of the mobile communication device 600 can be turned off during the screening time at the screening venue 304. It is possible to provide a quiet environment without disturbing the movie watching with the sound of the sound.

  In the function management system 500 according to the present embodiment, the privilege provision management server 301 provides a privilege to the mobile communication device 600 in which the main power of the mobile communication device 600 is turned off during the movie showing time at the screening venue 304. Since it can be managed as a destination, a privilege can be provided to a user who has turned off the main power supply of the mobile communication device 600.

  Therefore, in the function management system 500, since a gain called a privilege can be obtained, the user can voluntarily operate the mobile communication device 600 so that the user does not use the function during the movie screening period. it can.

  For this reason, in the function management system 500, instead of controlling the function of the mobile communication device 600 or stopping the power supply in the mobile communication device 600, the mobile communication device 600 may be a benefit destination. it can. For this reason, the owner of the portable communication device 600 can be compensated for the disadvantage incurred when the function of the portable communication device 600 is controlled or the power supply in the portable communication device 600 is stopped. .

  Therefore, the function management system 500 according to the present embodiment can suppress the user's resistance to controlling at least a part of the functions of the communication device or stopping the power supply in the portable communication device 600. it can.

  In the function management system 500, as described above, the user of the mobile communication device 600 controls at least a part of the functions of the mobile communication device 600, or power supply to the mobile communication device 600 is stopped. In this case, since a privilege can be obtained, the user can be prompted to possess a portable communication device that can be applied to the function management system 500 according to the present embodiment.

  As described above, in the function management system 500 according to the present embodiment, the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 is configured to confirm entry / exit to the screening venue 304 of each portable communication device 600. Whether each mobile communication device 600 stops supplying power, that is, the main power is turned off, during the movie screening time of the base station 201, including the mobile communication device 600 that cannot establish a connection with the AP 305. It was the structure which monitors whether or not.

  Furthermore, the function management system of the present embodiment may be configured such that the function restriction management server 303 confirms entry / exit to the screening venue 304 of each mobile communication device 600 as shown in FIG. FIG. 17 is an explanatory diagram showing the configuration of a function management system 500 according to another embodiment of the present invention.

  A function management system 500 shown in FIG. 17 includes an AP 305 (AP 305 a, AP 305 b) for each space (room) divided into, for example, a screening venue 304 and a lobby 404 in the movie theater 300. The function restriction management server 303 is different from the function management system 500 shown in FIG. 1 in that the function restriction information 70 that is different for each AP 305a and AP 305b is transmitted to the mobile communication device 600. In particular, the AP 305a and the AP 305b are referred to as AP 305 unless otherwise described.

  Further, FIG. 1 shows that the function restriction management server 303 of the function management system 500 shown in FIG. 17 is configured to be able to identify each mobile communication device 600 that has established a connection with each AP 305a and AP 305b.

  Further, as will be described later, the function restriction management server 303 shown in FIG. 17 is configured to transmit service content to the mobile communication device 600 in the exhibition hall 304 until the start of movie screening. It is different.

  Here, the AP management table 72 stored in the storage unit 64 stores information for managing the AP 305 provided for each room, and stores identification information for identifying each AP 305a and AP 305b. is doing.

  The communication device identification information 73 stored in the storage unit 64 is information for identifying each mobile communication device 600, and stores a MAC address assigned to each mobile communication device 600. The MAC address of each mobile communication device 600 is registered when each mobile communication device 600 purchases a ticket from the electronic ticket issuing device 100 or the ticket sales office 408. For this reason, the function restriction management server 303 acquires the MAC address of each portable communication device 600 from the electronic ticket issuing device 100 or the function restriction management server 303 via the communication network 400, and stores it as the communication device identification information 73 in the storage unit 64. Remember.

  The communication device confirmation control unit 77 provided as a functional block in the management server main control unit 65 refers to the AP management table 72 and the communication device identification information 73 to determine the mobile communication device 600 that has established a connection with each of the AP 305a and the AP 305b. It is something to identify.

  As described above, the function management system 500 illustrated in FIG. 17 can control the functions of the mobile communication device 600 for each room. Further, as will be described later, the communication device confirmation control unit 77 is configured to confirm the entrance / exit of the mobile communication device 600 from the screening venue 304, and this point is also different from the function management system 500 shown in FIG. .

  In the following, a flow of processing related to management processing for managing the mobile communication device 600 as a privilege providing destination in the function management system 500 shown in FIG. 17 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 19 is a flowchart for explaining the flow of processing related to management processing as another embodiment of the present invention for managing the mobile communication device 600 as a privilege providing destination.

(Management flow 3 of portable communication device as a privilege providing destination)
First, the mobile communication device 600 receives a ticket (S51). The portable communication device 600 may receive this ticket from the electronic ticket issuing device 100 or may be issued at a ticket sales counter (ticket sales office 408) of the movie theater 300.

  When the ticket is issued, the mobile communication device 600 sets a wireless LAN so that a connection can be established with each of the AP 305a and AP 305b installed in the movie theater 300 (S52).

  This wireless LAN setting is such that when the mobile communication device 600 purchases an electronic ticket from the electronic ticket issuing device 100, the connection with the AP 305 is established based on the wireless LAN setting information 92 included in the electronic ticket information 91. Set up. That is, when the mobile communication device 600 receives an electronic ticket issued from the electronic ticket issuing device 100, the mobile communication device 600 sets a wireless LAN in accordance with an instruction from the electronic ticket issuing device 100.

  On the other hand, when a ticket is purchased at the ticket office 408, an IC tag is attached to the purchased ticket, which is read by the portable communication device 600 to acquire the wireless LAN setting information 92 and set the wireless LAN.

  Note that an expiration date is set in the wireless LAN setting information 92 acquired by the mobile communication device 600, so that the connection with the AP 305a and AP 305b cannot be established until the movie start date / time is reached. Also, the wireless LAN setting information 92 becomes invalid when the movie screening end date and time, the end of the screening time, etc., and the wireless LAN setting set based on the wireless LAN setting information 92 is canceled. Is done.

  Also, when purchasing an electronic ticket from the electronic ticket issuing device 100 or purchasing a ticket at the ticket office, the mobile communication device 600 registers the MAC address assigned to the device itself.

  When the mobile communication device 600 reaches a time when the connection with the AP 305 can be established (S53), and the user who has the mobile communication device 600 enters the lobby 404, the mobile communication device 600 is connected to the AP 305b provided in the lobby 404. Establish a connection with.

  Before entering the lobby 404, the portable communication device 600 has been confirmed by the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 to hold an electronic ticket or a ticket purchased at the ticket sales office 408.

  The user who has been waiting until the screening time for a while in the lobby 404 moves into the screening hall 304 when the screening is about to start (S55). At this time, the function restriction management server 303 notifies the mobile communication device 600 via the AP 305b of information notifying that the movement into the exhibition hall 304 is possible.

  When the user who has the mobile communication device 600 moves into the screening venue 304, the mobile communication device 600 reestablishes a connection with the AP 305a installed in the screening venue 304 (S56). Thus, in the screening hall 304, the mobile communication device 600 performs wireless communication via the installed AP 305a.

  As described above, the type of function that is restricted among the functions of the mobile communication device 600 varies depending on the AP 305 to which the connection is made. That is, in the lobby 404, all the functions of the mobile communication device 600 are permitted to be used, but in the screening venue 304, for example, according to the function restriction information 70 transmitted from the function restriction management server 303, for example, a call function, mail The transmission / reception function and the camera function are stopped.

  In addition, when the function restriction management server 303 confirms the establishment of the connection between the AP 305 a and the mobile communication device 600, the function restriction management server 303 transmits the MAC address of the mobile communication device 600 that has been confirmed to the privilege provision management server 301.

  That is, when the mobile communication device 600 establishes a connection with the AP 305, the mobile communication device 600 transmits the MAC address assigned to the mobile device itself, and the function restriction management server 303 determines which mobile communication device 600 is connected to which AP 305. You can check if a connection is established. Therefore, the function restriction management server 303 can determine which location the mobile communication device 600 is in by confirming which AP 305 has established the connection. In particular, when each room is covered with a thick wall and separated, as in the movie theater 300, communication with only the AP 305 in each room is possible, so the mobile communication device 600 clearly exists in the screening hall 304. It can be determined whether or not.

  In this way, the MAC address is acquired from each of the mobile communication devices 600, and when the function restriction management server 303 confirms the mobile communication device 600 that has established a connection with the AP 305a, the MAC of the mobile communication device 600 that has been confirmed. The address is transmitted to the privilege provision management server 301. The privilege provision management server 301 records the MAC address of the mobile communication device 600 transmitted from the function restriction management server 303 as the communication device identification information 93 in the privilege provision database 306.

  The entry / exit information of each mobile communication device 600 in the privilege providing database 306 records the time when the privilege providing management server 301 receives the MAC address of the mobile communication device 600 from the function restriction management server 303. That is, the time when the mobile communication device 600 establishes a connection with the AP 305a is recorded.

  By the way, until the movie starts to be screened at the screening venue 304, the function restriction management server 303 carries content including basic information, performer information, production episodes, etc. regarding the movie to be screened, that is, service content 74. The data is transmitted to each communication device 600. The function restriction management server 303 stores the service contents 74... In the storage unit 64. Then, the selection control unit 62 selects a specific service content 74 with reference to the function restriction information management table 71, and selects the selected service content 74 via the AP 305a during the waiting time until the movie start time. It transmits toward the portable communication apparatus in the screening hall 304.

  The content is stored in advance in the function restriction management server 303 and transmitted to the mobile communication device 600. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the content is transmitted as follows. May be.

  That is, the privilege provision management server 301 stores the content in the privilege provision destination information storage unit 20, and reads the content data from the privilege provision destination information storage unit 20 and transmits it to the function restriction management server 303 during this waiting time. . The function restriction management server 303 may be configured to transmit the content received from the privilege provision management server 301 to the mobile communication device 600 via the AP 305a.

  When the mobile communication device 600 receives the content, the mobile communication device 600 causes the display unit 12 to display the content acquired by the main control unit 40 in response to an input instruction to the operation unit 14 by the user of the mobile communication device 600. In this way, the user of the portable communication device 600 displays and views the content transmitted via the AP 305a (S57).

  In this way, the user having the mobile communication device 600 who has entered the screening venue can view the service content, so that the movie to be screened can be viewed more happily.

  When the movie screening time is reached (S58), the function restriction management server 303 transmits function restriction information 70 including contents instructing that communication performed via the base station 201 cannot be performed. When this function restriction information 70 is received, in the mobile communication device 600, the main control unit 40 performs settings so that communication performed via the base station 201 cannot be performed. Thereby, the mobile communication device 600 turns off communication other than wireless communication performed via the AP 305a and the AP 305b installed in each room (S59).

  In this way, when the communication performed via the base station 201 is stopped and the setting is changed so that only the communication performed via the AP 305 is enabled, the mobile communication device 600 displays the main control unit 40. An instruction is sent to the unit 12 to notify that the setting has been changed (S60). Although not shown, the function restriction management server 303 stores the message data to be displayed in advance in the storage unit 64 and is transmitted to the portable communication device 600 together with the function restriction information 70. However, the message information may be stored in advance in the first memory 10 or the second memory 13 in advance by the mobile communication device 600.

  As described above, in the mobile communication device 600, the function that the mobile communication device 600 can currently use is provided to the user who has the mobile communication device 600 by performing the display for notifying the change of the restriction of the function of the mobile communication device 600. Can be confirmed.

  In this manner, confirmation is exchanged that the settings have been changed among the function restriction management server 303, the privilege provision management server 301, and the portable communication device 600 (S61).

  In addition, the function restriction management server 303 transmits the function restriction information 70 to the mobile communication device 600 in the exhibition hall 304 so that all the functions of the mobile communication device 600 are stopped. In response to the function restriction information 70 transmitted from the function restriction management server 303, each mobile communication device 600 stops the function of the mobile communication device 600.

  Here, when the user having the mobile communication device 600 temporarily leaves the screening venue 304, moves to the lobby 404, and reestablishes a connection with the AP 305b installed in the lobby ("YES" in S62), this The portable communication device 600 reestablishes connection with the AP 305b.

  By the way, when the function is restricted so that the call performed via the base station 201 is stopped, the function restriction management server 303 sends the function restriction information 70 instructing to release the suspension of the function to the AP 305b. Is sending through. For this reason, the mobile communication device 600 that has established a connection with the AP 305b can resume the function of performing communication via the stopped base station 201. That is, the restriction on the call function (telephone function) performed by the mobile communication device 600 with another communication device via the base station 201 is released (S70). In this manner, the user who has temporarily left the screening venue 304 can make a call with another communication device via the base station 201 using the mobile communication device 600 possessed by the user (S71). That is, when a user who possesses the mobile communication device 600 from the screening hall 304 suddenly wants to make a call and goes to the lobby 404, the restriction on the function of the mobile communication device 600 is released, and a call or the like becomes possible.

  When the call is finished and the exhibition hall 304 is re-entered, the portable communication device 600 repeats the processing steps shown in steps S55 to S61, and another call is made with another communication device via the base station 201. It is set so that it cannot.

  For example, when an emergency situation occurs due to a natural disaster or the like (“YES” in S63), the function restriction management server 303 sends function restriction information 70 for instructing to resume all the stopped functions via the AP 305. Transmit to mobile communication device 600. When receiving the function restriction information 70 transmitted from the function restriction management server 303, the mobile communication device 600 restarts all the stopped functions and releases the function restriction (S72). Further, the function restriction management server 303 transmits message data indicating the occurrence of an abnormal situation together with the function restriction information 70 to the mobile communication device 600. The mobile communication device 600 receives the message and displays the message data. The message content is displayed on 12 (S73). Then, evacuate from the movie theater 300 according to the instructions of the employees of the movie theater 300 (END).

  On the other hand, when an emergency situation does not occur and the movie screening time ends safely (S64), the function restriction management server 303 transmits the service content to the mobile communication device 600 via the AP 305a. Then, the mobile communication device 600 receives the transmitted service content (S65).

  Then, when the user leaves the screening venue 304 and moves to the lobby 404 (S66), the mobile communication device 600 establishes a connection with the AP 305b. Then, based on the function restriction information 70 transmitted from the function restriction management server 303, the portable communication device 600 resumes the function of the suspended portable communication device 600 among the functions of the portable communication device 600.

  When the movie screening time ends, the privilege provision management server 301 determines the mobile communication device 600 that is the privilege provision destination based on the communication device identification information 93 and the entrance / exit information 94 recorded in the privilege provision database 306. To do. Then, the payment processing server (not shown) of the settlement institution together with the credit number registered with the portable communication device 600 determined as the privilege providing destination reduces a part of the ticket fee withdrawn from the account of the portable communication device 600. To be notified. In this way, the operator of the movie theater 300 reduces a part of the electronic ticket fee paid by the user of the portable communication device 600 that has been restricted in function during the movie.

  In addition, the privilege provision management server 301 transmits the privilege provision destination, that is, information (MAC address) related to the mobile communication device 600 that reduces the ticket fee to the function restriction management server 303, and reduces the ticket fee to the mobile communication device 600. To notify you that you will

  In response to an instruction from the privilege provision management server 301, the function restriction management server 303 transmits information indicating a notification that the ticket fee will be reduced to each mobile communication device 600 determined as the privilege provision destination. On the other hand, when the notification transmitted from the function restriction management server 303 is received, the mobile communication device 600 displays the notification content received on the display unit 12 (S67).

  In this way, the mobile communication device 600 whose functions are limited during the screening time can enjoy the privilege of reducing the ticket cost.

  The wireless LAN setting information 92 is set with an expiration date as described above, and when the expiration date has passed, the wireless LAN setting information 92 included in the mobile communication device 600 becomes invalid. Therefore, the portable communication device 600 returns the wireless LAN settings set based on the wireless LAN setting information 92 to the initial state when the expiration date has passed (S68).

  On the other hand, the movie theater 300 changes the setting information (wireless LAN setting information 92) for establishing the connection with the AP 305a and AP 305b (S69). In this way, the mobile communication device 600 possessed by a user who does not have a regular ticket is set so that a connection with the AP 305 cannot be established.

  In addition, when the functions of the mobile communication device 600 are restricted, the contents with the restricted functions are displayed. When the mobile phone is used by mistake, the contents with the restricted functions are displayed. The person can clearly determine whether it is a restriction or failure. For example, in this display example, when the mobile communication device 600 receives function restriction information 70 indicating that the camera function and the call function are to be stopped from the function restriction management server 303, the mobile communication device 600 displays “currently, A message such as “Camera / call prohibited” is displayed. Alternatively, when the mobile communication device 600 receives the function restriction information 70 indicating that all the functions are to be stopped from the function restriction management server 303, the mobile communication device 600 “restricts all the functions of the mobile communication device. Is displayed. "

  As described above, the function management system 500 can stop a call with another communication apparatus via the base station 201 according to the function restriction information 70. In addition, the privilege providing management server 301 receives the privilege based on the information (MAC address) of the mobile communication device 600 that has been transmitted from the function restriction management server 303 and stopped communication via the base station 201. A mobile communication device 600 can be determined.

  That is, according to the function restriction information 70 transmitted from the function restriction management server 303 via the AP 305, the portable communication device 600 that is set to restrict the function of the portable communication device 600 is set as a privilege providing destination. be able to.

  In the above description, the MAC address assigned to each mobile communication device 600 is used as information for identifying each mobile communication device 600. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the MAC address assigned to each mobile communication device 600 is assigned. Or an IP address.

  In the above-described embodiment, the privilege provided to the mobile communication device 600 is a reduction in the ticket cost. However, a special video or image content may be provided instead of the reduction in the ticket cost. . When providing special video or image content in this way, the function restriction management server 303 may receive the content in the lobby 404 in response to an instruction from the privilege provision management server 301 via the AP 305. Alternatively, the privilege providing management server 301 may hold video or image data content provided as a privilege, and the content may be distributed to each mobile communication device 600 via the base station 201.

  As described above, the AP 305 is provided for each room, and the function restriction management server 303 transmits the function restriction information 70 corresponding to each room, so that the portable communication apparatus 600 is in accordance with the environment surrounding the portable communication apparatus 600. It is possible to appropriately limit the functions possessed by.

  Further, since the function restriction management server 303 can confirm which AP 305 and the mobile communication device 600 have established a connection, it controls, that is, restricts at least a part of the functions of the mobile communication device 600. The mobile communication device 600 can be monitored.

  In the function management system 500 described above, when the electronic ticket is purchased from the electronic ticket issuing device 100, the wireless LAN setting information 92 is included in the electronic ticket information 91, and the mobile communication device 600 purchases the electronic ticket. Accordingly, the wireless LAN setting information 92 can be acquired. However, the method for acquiring the wireless LAN setting information 92 is not limited to this, and the wireless LAN setting information 92 may be provided separately from the electronic ticket information 91.

  In addition, the mobile communication device 600 may access a WEB site designated when purchasing an electronic ticket and acquire the wireless LAN setting information 92 from the WEB site. Alternatively, the electronic ticket issuing device 100 acquires a mail address from the portable communication device 600 when purchasing the electronic ticket, and transmits the wireless LAN setting information 92 as an attached file to the mail address. And the portable communication apparatus 600 may acquire the wireless LAN setting information 92 by receiving this mail.

  Further, for example, apart from the electronic ticket, the mobile communication device 600 may be configured to acquire LAN setting information from the electronic ticket issuing device 100 via the base station 201. Furthermore, the mobile communication device 600 may acquire the wireless LAN setting information 92 from the electronic ticket issuing device 100 via the base station 201 when entering the movie theater 300 with the purchased electronic ticket. Alternatively, the portable communication device 600 further includes another radio unit having a relatively short communicable distance, such as RFID (Radio Frequency Identification), infrared rays, and Bluetooth (registered trademark). The wireless LAN setting information 92 may be acquired by the wireless unit when entering. As described above, when the wireless LAN setting information 92 is acquired by another wireless unit, the wireless LAN setting can be realized by transmitting the wireless LAN setting information 92 acquired by the wireless unit to the main control unit 40. .

  Alternatively, when entering the facility of the movie theater 300 by the electronic ticket purchased by the user, a two-dimensional code such as a QR (Quick Response) code (registered trademark) in which wireless LAN setting information 92 is recorded, or a barcode is used. You will be given printed paper (ticket or receipt). Then, the mobile communication device 600 may acquire the wireless LAN setting information 92 from this QR code or the like. When acquiring the wireless LAN setting information 92 from the QR code or the like, the mobile communication device 600 further includes a QR code reading function, and transmits the read information to the main control unit 40 to set the wireless LAN setting. Can be realized.

  Further, the information described on the paper is input by the operation unit 14 included in the mobile communication device 600, and the input information is transmitted to the main control unit 40, whereby the setting of the wireless LAN is realized.

  The function management system 500 described above is configured to provide the user of the mobile communication device 600 with a reduction in movie ticket cost or movie video or image data as a privilege.

  However, the privilege to be provided is not limited to this, and may be the following privilege, for example.

  In other words, the privilege provision management server 301 may provide the above-mentioned mobile communication device 600 after leaving with a discount point for a movie ticket to be shown in the movie theater 300. In this case, the privilege provision management server 301 transmits information indicating the above points and information specifying the mobile communication device 600 to the electronic ticket issuing device 100. On the other hand, the electronic ticket issuing device 100 stores the points in association with the information of the mobile communication device 600 based on the information received from the privilege provision management server 301. In this way, when the electronic ticket issuing device 100 stores points in association with the mobile communication device 600, when the electronic ticket is issued again to the mobile communication device 600, the corresponding points are stored. The electronic ticket can be issued at a discounted price.

  In addition, when at least a part of the functions of the mobile communication device 600 is controlled, or when power supply in the mobile communication device 600 is stopped, the period when the function is controlled or the power supply is stopped The operator of the movie theater 300 may take over the cost required to make an inquiry to the answering service for message messages from other communication devices over the mobile communication device 600.

  As described above, when the cost for inquiring to the answering machine service is taken over, a call made to the mobile communication device 600 between the entrance time and the exit time of the mobile communication device 600 by the electronic ticket confirmation device 302 is answered. The function restriction management server 303 transmits the function restriction information 70 to the mobile communication device 600, and mobile communication is performed from another communication device during a period when at least some of the functions of the mobile communication device 600 are stopped. You may make a call to the device 600.

  That is, in the former case, based on the entrance / exit information 94 received from the electronic ticket confirmation device 302, the privilege provision management server 301 indicates the period during which the carrier communication device 600 has entered the screening venue 304 for the mobile communication device 600. The carrier 200 is notified. Then, the privilege provision management server 301 does not withdraw the charge for inquiring to the answering service related to the telephone received from another communication device during this period from the call cost of the mobile communication device 600. It can be realized by instructing the operator of the movie theater 300 to make a charge.

  Further, the latter case can be realized as follows. That is, when the function restriction management server 303 transmits the function restriction information 70 to the mobile communication device 600 via the AP 305, the benefit provision management server 301 is notified of information for notifying that the function restriction information 70 has been transmitted.
