Description

Apparatus and method for generating ring tone according to call information of communication terminal

The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for selectively outputting a ringing tone according to call information in a communication terminal.

Conventional communication terminals such as facsimile machines, telephones, cellular phones, pagers, etc., generate the same ring tone every time call information is received, regardless of the received call information. Communication terminals generating different ring tones merely differ in ring tones and are not related to other communication environments. The various communication environments refer to providing various services such as not only voice data transmitted but also image data in the case of facsimile and text data in the case of a pager. However, if the ringing tone is generated differently according to the communication environment, it is only a technology for generating the ringing tone according to the telephone number of the calling place. As described above, the following problem is caused by generating the same ring tone regardless of the type of data received. For example, a user who knows that when using a device connected to a facsimile and a telephone, if the calling party sent facsimile data but the receiver tried to pick up the receiver, the data would be missed and the facsimile data would be sent afterwards. If the phone hangs up, there is a problem that the call line is terminated.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus and method for differently generating a ringing tone according to call information received by a communication terminal.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention comprises a process of setting a ring tone according to a communication type of call information, detecting a communication type from the received call information, and generating a ring tone according to the detected communication type. It is done.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. First, in adding reference numerals to the components of each drawing, it should be noted that the same reference numerals have the same reference numerals as much as possible even if displayed on different drawings. Also, in the following description, many specific details such as components of specific circuits are shown, which are provided to help a more general understanding of the present invention, and the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. It is self-evident to those of ordinary knowledge in Esau. In the following description of the present invention, if it is determined that a detailed description of a related known function or configuration may unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention, the detailed description thereof will be omitted.

First, the following embodiment takes a wireless terminal which is one of the communication terminals as an example, and the embodiment applied to the following will be found that it can be applied in the same method as the following in a communication terminal such as a facsimile, pager, or general telephone.

1 is a view showing a schematic configuration of a wireless terminal according to the present invention.

In general, a wireless terminal using a code division multiple access (CDMA) scheme includes a synchronization channel, a paging channel, an access channel, and a communication channel. The sync channel is a channel provided with system parameters for system acquisition. The paging channel is a channel containing call information such as registration parameters, configuration of a call channel and parameters for acquiring a pilot signal, and the like. The access channel is a channel including information on call origination, call response, command, and registration. An embodiment of the present invention is to use the information of the paging channel containing the call information of the channel.

In FIG. 1, the receiver 110 receives radio call information, and outputs radio call information converted into digital data by frequency conversion, demodulation, and waveform shaping. The frequency synthesizer 190 designates a channel of the receiver 110 according to the channel data output from the controller 100. The decoder 120 sets the operation mode of the receiver by decoding the received data. That is, in the idle mode, the supply of the operating power is controlled at regular intervals to detect the preamble data, and in the batch mode, the word sync data and the set frame data are detected. The detected frame data is decoded and converted into the original data form. The controller 100 processes the decoded data output from the decoder 120 to output a ringing tone according to the call. At this time, the control unit 100 controls to output the set ringing tone (or vibration signal) according to whether the ringing tone flag is set. Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) The codec 130 has an encoder 131 connected to a microphone 140 and a decoder 132 connected to a speaker 141. The codec 130 modulates and demodulates an input signal or an output signal under the control of the controller 100. . Electrically erasable and programmable read only memory (EEPROM) 150 stores unique address information and frame information allocated to a communication terminal. The key input unit 170 and the display unit 180 are user interface means. The key input unit 170 has a plurality of keys for setting and performing the ring tone selection mode. The display unit 180 displays the input state of the key, the state of the wireless terminal, and a menu necessary for executing a program according to the present invention under the control of the control unit 100. The memory divided into ROM 161, RAM 160, and EPROM 150 stores a program that collectively controls overall operations of the communication terminal, and temporarily stores data generated when the program is executed. In addition, the memory stores a program for setting and generating a ringing tone according to the present invention, and stores data generated when the program is executed. The PCM codec 130 converts the analog voice signal input through the microphone 140 into the digital PCM signal from the encoder 131. The PCM codec 130 converts the native ring tone of the PCM signal type read from the YPIROM 150 through the decoder 132 to convert the speaker 141. To pass.

2 is a control flowchart for setting a ringing tone according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the operation for setting the ringing tone of the present invention will be described. In step 200, the control unit 100 checks whether a key for selecting a ringing tone setting mode input through the key input unit 170 is input. If the key value is input, the process proceeds to step 210; otherwise, continuously checks whether the ring tone setting mode key value is input. In step 210, the controller 100 displays a communication type according to the wireless call information on the display unit 180. For example, as shown in Table 1 below.

The classification shown above may be added according to the type of service to be added and may be subdivided according to each invocation information. Looking at the service options according to the voice communication and data communication of Table 1 are shown in Table 2 below.

Voice communication CAI_SO_VOICE_IS96A CAI_SO_VOICE13K CAI_SO_VOICE_IS96 ··· Data communication CAI_SO_ASYNC_DATA CAI_SO_FAX_DATA CAI_SO_PACKET_DATA ··· ... ...

The classification divided into voice communication and data communication is again divided into voice communication (CAI_SO_VOICE_IS96A, CAI_SO_VOICE13K, etc.), facsimile communication (CAI_SO_FAX_DATA), text communication (options such as those used for text beeping), general data (CAI_SO_PACKET_DATA, etc.) communication, and the like. Can be divided.

In step 220, the controller 100 checks whether a key for selecting a specific communication type is input through the key input unit 170 in the menu displayed on the display unit 180 in step 210. In step 230, the control unit 100 displays the ringing tone applied to the communication type selected in step 220 through the display unit 180 as shown in Table 3 below.

In step 240, the controller 100 determines whether one of the types of the ringing tones shown above is selected. In step 250, the controller 100 stores the ring tone data according to the communication type and the communication type together in the designated storage area of the RAM 160 or the YPROM 150. In step 260, the control unit 100 displays a message asking whether the ringing tone set through the display unit 180 is to be generated. For example, "Do you want to hear a ringing tone? Y / N". In this case, the controller 100 checks whether a key for generating the ring tone selected in step 240 is input. If the key value for generating the ringing tone is input through the key input unit 170, the process proceeds to step 270; otherwise, the process proceeds to step 280. In step 270, the control unit 100 generates the ring tone selected in step 240 and outputs it to the speaker 141. In step 280, the control unit 100 displays a message asking whether to continue to set the ring tone through the display unit 180. For example, "Do you want to continue to set the ring tone? Y / N" and exits the ring tone setting mode if there is a key input to terminate. Otherwise, return to step 210.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 3, an operation for generating a ringing tone according to the present invention will be described. In step 300, the control unit 100 checks whether wireless call information input from a paging channel is received through the receiving unit 110. If the radio call information is received, the flow proceeds to step 310. In step 310, the controller 100 checks the radio call information and checks whether the communication type is a service option corresponding to voice communication (CAI_SO_VOICE_IS96A, CAI_SO_VOICE13K, CAI_SO_VOICE_IS96, etc.). If voice communication, the flow proceeds to step 320; otherwise, the flow proceeds to step 330. In step 320, the controller 100 reads the ringing tone data corresponding to the voice communication stored in the memory configured by the RAM 160 ROM 161 EPIROM 150, and analogizes the read ring tone through the decoder 132 to output to the speaker 141. In step 330, the control unit 100 checks the received wireless call information and proceeds to step 340 if the form corresponds to data communication (CAI_SO_ASYNC_DATA, CAI_SO_FAX_DATA, CAI_SO_PACKET_DATA, etc.). In step 340, the control unit 100 reads the ring tone data corresponding to the voice communication stored in the memory configured as the RAM 160 ROM 161 EPIROM 150, and analogizes the read ring tone through the decoder 132 to output to the speaker 141. In step 350, the control unit 100 outputs the ringing tone corresponding to the default value through the speaker 141. Steps 310 and 330 are equivalent steps and detect a communication type by examining data of radio call information.
