Abstract

PURPOSE:To communicate calling subscriber information such as a calling subscriber number or a calling subscriber name even without seeing the visible display of the calling subscriber number of telephone terminal by making the telephone terminal communicate the calling subscriber number or the calling subscriber name, etc., in a synthetic voice as ringing tone output. CONSTITUTION:At the time of call incoming, in a calling subscriber number receiving part 11, a calling subscriber number decoding part 13 decodes the calling subscriber number from the message of a call incoming request, and displays it visibly on a calling subscriber number display part 14, and simultaneously, it communicates it to a voice calling control part 17. The voice calling control part 17 retrieves a voice information storage part 15 according to the received calling subscriber number. In the case that the name of a government office 'the Patent Office', for instance, is recorded as the voice information, since the voice calling control part 17 draws the calling subscriber information 'the Patent Office' out of the voice information storage part 15, it instructs a voice ringing tone output part 16 so as to output it. When the voice ringing tone output part 16 receives the outputting instruction of the voice information 'the Patent Office', it broadcasts a message 'There is a telephone call from the Patent Office.' from a speaker in the synthetic voice.

There was a problem in that the characters displayed on the display had to be read.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a calling party information notification system that solves the above problems by notifying the calling party number or calling party number information in an audible voice.

[Means to solve the problem]

The basic structure of the caller information notification method according to the present invention is that when a telephone terminal receives a call, it notifies the user of the call by generating an audible ringing tone, and also receives the caller number from the communication network in a predetermined procedure. In the notification method, the voice information for each caller number is stored, and when a call is received and the caller number is received, the voice information of the received caller number is extracted and output as a synthesized voice. The telephone terminal has a section.

Further, one embodiment of the ring tone output ringing unit described in the basic configuration above includes a voice information storage unit that stores voice information for each calling party number, and a voice information storage unit that extracts the instructed synthesized voice and outputs it as an audible sound. and a voice ring tone output unit that searches the voice information storage unit when receiving a call and receives a calling party number, and notifies the voice ring tone output unit of the voice information extracted from the received calling party number. and a voice call control section which instructs voice output and, if there is no voice information for the received calling party number, notifies the voice ring tone output section of the received calling party number and instructs voice output.

[Effect]

According to the calling party information notification system using the above-described means, the telephone terminal that has received the calling party number can notify the calling party information or the calling party number by an audible voice.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating one embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, the telephone terminal 10 has a calling party number receiving section 11 and a ringing tone outputting section 12.

The calling party number receiving section 11 has a calling party number decoding section 13 and a calling party number displaying section 14 . The calling party number decoding unit 13 decodes the calling party number from the message of the call request received from the communication network and outputs it. The calling party number display section 14 inputs the data of the calling party number which is the output of the calling party number decoding section 13 and visually displays it in characters (numbers).

The ringing tone output unit 12 is connected to the audio information storage unit 15. It has a voice ring tone output section 16 and a voice call control section 17. The voice information storage unit 15 records in advance caller information, for example, subscriber name, corresponding to each caller number received by the telephone terminal 10.

The voice ring tone output section 16 has a synthesized voice generating means, takes out the instructed synthesized voice, assembles it if necessary, and outputs it as an audible voice. The voice call control unit 17 uses the calling party number received from the calling party number decoding unit 13 to send it to the voice information storage unit 15.
When there is a record of caller information, the caller information is retrieved and transferred to the voice ring tone output unit 16 to instruct audio output, while when there is no record of caller information, the received call The user number is transferred to the voice ringing tone output unit 16 and an instruction is given to output the voice.

Next, the operation will be explained with reference to FIG.

When a call is received, the calling party number receiving section 11 receives a message requesting a call, and the calling party number decoding section 13 decodes the calling party number from the message requesting a calling party, and displays the calling party number display section 14.
The voice call control unit 17 is notified. The voice call control unit 17 searches the voice information storage unit 15 using the received calling party number.

For example, when the name of the government office "Japan Patent Office" is recorded as voice information, the voice call control unit 17 retrieves the caller information "Japan Patent Office" from the voice information storage unit 15, so this is output as a voice ring tone. The unit 16 is instructed to output. Voice ring tone output section 16
When receiving an instruction to output the voice information ``Patent Office'', the system broadcasts the message ``The Patent Office is calling you'' from the speaker in synthesized voice.

On the other hand, when there is no voice information or no recording of the calling party number from the voice information storage section 15, the voice calling control section 17 notifies the voice ringing tone output section 16 of the received calling party number. The voice ring tone output unit 16 outputs the received number when it receives the drive.
This is converted into a synthesized voice saying, ``I'm calling you from number 000'' and is broadcast from the speaker.

The voice ringer output section records ``name,'' ``first and last name,''``address,'' and ``numbers,'' along with the message ``I'm calling from you,'' and calls and assembles the phone using the address code. Therefore, it is sufficient to record the address code of the call in the voice information storage section. The call broadcast is repeated until answered.

Further, if the ringing tone output unit outputs a ringing tone using an audible ringing tone, it can alternately broadcast it with a voice message as in the conventional case.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention allows the telephone terminal to notify the calling party number, the calling party name, etc. in synthesized voice as a ring tone output, so that the telephone terminal can make a call without looking at the visible display of the calling party number on the telephone terminal. This has the effect of being able to notify caller information such as the caller number or caller name.
