Detailed ways

The invention is a state display method of a mobile communication terminal using a phonebook. Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

Fig. 1 is the structural diagram of mobile communication system in the present invention, as shown in the figure, the composition of mobile communication system comprises: the switching center (MobileSwitching Center: MSC) 10,11 that is responsible for the management of user and switching between each control center 20,21 The control center (Base Station Controller: BSC) 20,21 that each base station 30--33 is managed; The base station (Base Transceiver Station: BTS) 30--33 that is responsible for carrying out wireless connection with mobile center; With above-mentioned base station 30- -33 carry out wireless connection, movable mobile communication terminal machine (MS: Mobile Station) 40--43.

The control centers 20, 21 perform functions of call connection control and wireless connection control, and functions of converting and transmitting signals for communication between the switching centers 10, 11 and the control centers 20, 21. In addition, the functions performed by the above-mentioned base stations 30--33 are: after demodulating the signals received from the terminals 40--43, they are transmitted to the control center 20, 21; After the received packet data is modulated, it is transmitted to the terminal machines 40--43.

In the above-mentioned mobile communication system, the working process of the terminal status display of the present invention is as follows.

At first, if the terminal machine A40 wants to confirm the other party's mobile communication terminal machine in the phone book, that is, the call status of the terminal machines B41, C42, D43, the terminal machine A40 located in the flexible cell (Cell) area of the base station n31, just can pass through The base station n31, the control center L20, the switching center r11, and the base station (n+1) 32 formed by the path connection of the control center k21 receive the call status information of the terminal B41 and the terminal C42, that is, in call, in standby, Refusal to receive, messages in areas where calls cannot be made, etc. In addition, the communication state information of the terminal D43 can also be received through the base station m33 connected to the control center k21.

In addition, the terminals A40, B41, C42, and D43 can also send their own call status information. For example, although they are driving or in a meeting, they can make a phone call, but according to the user's personal settings, they cannot make a call. When the communication state of the terminal machine is in use, the relevant information is transmitted through the base station.

Fig. 2 is the state display method flowchart of the mobile communication terminal machine that the present invention utilizes phone book, as shown in the figure, described method comprises the following steps: the step S10 of entering the phone book menu of mobile communication terminal machine; Book menu item judges the step S20; If the selected phone book menu item is the other party's state display item, just receive the step S30 of the call status data of the other party's mobile communication terminal from the base station; According to the data received, to the phone book The corresponding terminal state of the stored phone number is the step S31 of display conversion; if the selected phone book menu is the display item of the personal state, the user just sets the step S40 of the terminal state of oneself; the set Step S41 of sending terminal status information to the base station; step S50 of displaying the phonebook according to the original method if the selected phonebook menu is a general phonebook item.

At first, as shown in Figure 3, if you enter the phone book menu, it will be displayed on the screen: the "1. general phone book" item with the same composition and function as the existing phone book; The "2. Other party status display" item for displaying the corresponding call status of the other party's terminal; the "3. Personal status display" item for the call status of the own terminal to be displayed to the other party; the shape of the icon that can display the status of the terminal "4. Status display setting" item S10 for setting with color.

Wherein, as shown in (b) of Fig. 3, if the "4. status display setting" item is selected, the user can configure the display icon of the callable state, the display icon of the incapable call state, and the display icon of the automatic answering state. Settings, for icons of the same shape, you can also change the color.

After setting the above-mentioned terminal call status, if the item "2. The other party's status display" is selected, as shown in (c) of Figure 3, together with the directory of phone numbers stored in the phone book, it can be displayed by displaying the icon , to confirm the call status of each terminal in real time; if the item "3. Personal status display" is selected, as shown in (d) of Figure 3, you can confirm the call status of your own terminal. Although the phone is in the state of being able to talk, if the user is in a situation where the phone call cannot be made, the relevant information can be input.

At this time, if the selected phone book menu is the item "2. The status display of the other party", the call status information of the relevant terminal in the telephone number directory displayed on the screen will be received from the base station, and the status of the relevant terminal will be determined according to the received information. Appropriate changes will also take place in the displayed icon (such as steps S20--S31).

Moreover, when the item "3. personal status display" is selected, the status of the terminal will be set according to the keypad key signal input by the user command, and the relevant information will be sent to the base station (as step S41) .
