Here, the terminal control unit 25 determines that the mobile phone device 3 has been detected when the terminal communication unit 23 receives a BLE signal (hereinafter, BLE signal) from the mobile phone device 3. On the other hand, the terminal control unit 25 determines that the mobile phone device 3 has not been detected when the terminal communication unit 23 has not received the BLE signal from the mobile phone device 3. That is, the terminal control unit 25 determines that the mobile phone device 3 has been detected when the mobile phone device 3 exists in the BLE communication area where communication with the terminal communication unit 23 by BLE (hereinafter, BLE communication) is possible. . On the other hand, the terminal control unit 25 determines that the mobile phone device 3 is not detected when the mobile phone device 3 does not exist in the BLE communication area. If it is determined that the mobile phone device 3 has been detected, the terminal control unit 25 proceeds to S103.

In step S <b> 103, the terminal control unit 25 transmits its own identification information to the detected mobile phone device 3.

In step S <b> 202, the apparatus control unit 36 determines whether the short-range communication unit 31 has received emergency information from the management target terminal 2. When it is determined that the short-range communication unit 31 has not received emergency information from the management target terminal 2, the apparatus control unit 36 proceeds to S <b> 203.

In S203, the apparatus control unit 36 transmits the identification information of the management target terminal 2 received in S201 to the server 5 via the line communication unit 32.
In S204, the device control unit 36 determines that the managed terminal 2 that is currently performing BLE communication with the mobile phone device 3, that is, the managed terminal 2 that is the communication partner is an emergency target terminal in which the user is in an emergency state. Determine if there is. This determination is performed as follows. That is, as will be described later, in the server 5, the identification information of the management target terminal 2 designated as the emergency target terminal is registered. Then, in the server 5, it is determined whether the identification information transmitted in S203 matches any of the registered emergency target terminal identification information. If it is determined that they match, the server 5 transmits information indicating that the managed terminal 2 that is the communication partner is an emergency target terminal. When the line communication unit 32 receives the information, the device control unit 36 determines that the managed terminal 2 that is the communication partner is an emergency target terminal.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the identification information transmitted in S203 does not match any of the registered emergency target terminal identification information, the server 5 indicates that the managed terminal 2 that is the communication partner is not an emergency target terminal. Information is sent. When the line communication unit 32 receives the information, the device control unit 36 determines that the managed terminal 2 that is the communication partner is not an emergency target terminal.

If the device control unit 36 determines that the managed terminal 2 that is the communication partner is not an emergency target terminal, the apparatus control unit 36 proceeds to S208 described later.

The apparatus control unit 36 also proceeds to S206 when it is determined in S204 described above that the managed terminal 2 that is the communication partner is an emergency target terminal.
In S206, the device control unit 36 acquires the location information of the mobile phone device 3 from the GPS receiver 33, and transmits the acquired location information to the server 5 via the line communication unit 32 together with its own identification information. That is, when the user of the management target terminal 2 is in an emergency state, the location information of the mobile phone device 3 that has finally performed BLE communication with the management target terminal 2 is transmitted to the server 5.

In S207, the device control unit 36 performs an emergency state display for displaying an alert on the display unit 35.
After executing S207, the apparatus control unit 36 proceeds to S208.

In S <b> 208, the apparatus control unit 36 receives position information from the management target terminal 2 and stores the received position information in the storage unit 34.
In step S209, the apparatus control unit 36 determines whether position information has been received from the management target terminal 2 to the end, or whether the BLE connection has been disconnected. Here, when the short-range communication unit 31 receives the transmission end information from the management target terminal 2, the device control unit 36 determines that the position information has been received from the management target terminal 2 to the end.

  When it is determined that the position information has not been received from the management target terminal 2 to the end and the BLE connection has not been disconnected, the apparatus control unit 36 executes S208 described above again. In other words, the device control unit 36 continues to receive the position information of the management target terminal 2 and store it in the storage unit 34 unless the position information has been received to the end and the BLE connection is disconnected.

As described above, since the location information of the management target terminal 2 is transmitted from the management target terminal 2 to the mobile phone device 3 by the short-range wireless communication, even if the management target terminal 2 cannot use the communication line. The position of the management target terminal 2 can be managed by the server. As a result, the user of the management target terminal 2 or the user of the monitoring terminal 6 does not need to make a contract with a communication carrier or provider and pay the communication fee, and the management target terminal does not need to be able to use the communication line. For this reason, the expense of the user of the position management system 1 can be reduced.

  (2) In the present embodiment, the managed terminal 2 transmits its own location information and identification information to the server 5 via the wireless LAN access point 4. Therefore, even when the mobile phone device 3 is not detected, the position information can be transmitted to the server 5 when the access point 4 is detected. Therefore, as compared with the configuration in which the position information is transmitted to the server 5 only via the mobile phone device 3, more opportunities for the managed terminal 2 to transmit the position information to the server 5 can be secured. .

  (3) In the present embodiment, when the management target terminal 2 determines that the emergency button 24 is pressed, the management target terminal 2 transmits emergency information to the mobile phone device 3, and sends the emergency information to the mobile phone device 3.

Therefore, it is possible to make the user of the mobile phone device 3 recognize that the user of the management target terminal 2 is in an emergency state. Therefore, the protection effect for the user of the management target terminal 2 can be improved as compared with a configuration in which the mobile phone device 3 is not notified when emergency information is transmitted from the management target terminal 2.

  (5) In the present embodiment, the cellular phone device 3 displays the emergency state when the emergency information from the monitoring terminal 6 is transmitted from the server 5 and the emergency information is received. Therefore, when emergency information is transmitted from the server 5, the user of the mobile phone device 3 can recognize that the user of the management target terminal 2 is in an emergency state. Therefore, the protection effect for the user of the management target terminal 2 can be improved as compared with the configuration in which the mobile phone device 3 is not notified when emergency information is transmitted from the server 5.

  (6) In the present embodiment, when the server 5 receives emergency information from the management target terminal 2, the server 5 selects information for causing the mobile phone device 3 selected based on a predetermined selection condition to display an emergency state ( Emergency information). Specifically, the emergency information is transmitted to the mobile phone device 3 in the first area based on the current position of the mobile phone device 3 that has transmitted the emergency information to the server 5. Therefore, it is possible to make the user of the mobile phone device 3 in the first area recognize that the user of the management target terminal 2 is in an emergency state.

High nature. Therefore, it is possible to secure more opportunities for transmitting position information and the like to the server 5.

  (8) In the present embodiment, the mobile phone device 3 stores the position information of the management target terminal 2 and stores the position information when it is determined that the position information has been received to the end or the BLE connection has been disconnected. Information is transmitted to the server 5. For this reason, it is possible to increase the amount of position information of the management target terminal 2 transmitted from the mobile phone device 3 to the server 5. That is, when the managed terminal 2 performs short-range wireless communication with the mobile phone device 3 possessed by a passerby, it is assumed that the period during which the communication is performed is about several seconds. During this time, if the cellular phone device 3 executes a process other than the reception of position information, such as transmission of the position information to the server 5, the amount of position information to be received can be reduced. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, even if the mobile phone device 3 receives the position information from the management target terminal 2, the mobile phone device 3 receives the position information until the end or determines that the BLE connection is disconnected. Do not send information, concentrate on receiving location information. Therefore, the amount of position information received from the management target terminal 2 can be increased compared to a configuration in which the mobile phone device transmits the position information to the immediate server 5 without accumulating the position information. As a result, the amount of location information of the management target terminal 2 transmitted from the mobile phone device 3 to the server 5 can be increased.

  On the other hand, when receiving the emergency information from the management target terminal 2, the mobile phone device 3 immediately transmits the emergency information to the server 5. Therefore, in an emergency, it is possible to immediately notify the user of the monitoring terminal 6 that the user of the management target terminal 2 is in an emergency state.
