Description

[DESCRIPTION] [Invention Title]
A METHOD OF CONVERTING SMS MO MESSAGE TO EMOTICON SMS OR MMS MESSAGE [Technical Field]
The present invention belongs to a field of information communication technology, and relates to a method for converting an SMS MO (short message service mobile oriented) message into an emoticon SMS or an MMS (multimedia message service) message. [Background Art]
The present invention relates to a method for converting an SMS MO message into an emoticon SMS or an MMS message.
A term 'emoticon' is a compound word formed by utilizing two words, an emotion meaning feelings and an icon. In the early years of 1980' s, the term has been started to be widely used since a Carnegie Mellon University student used a mark of :-' formed by using his/her computer keyboard. The emoticon, that is a unique language used when users express their minds or feelings in a cyber space, is formed by appropriately combining characters, symbols, digits, etc. on their computer keyboards.
At first, the emoticons are mainly representing smiling expressions, and thus it is called 'smiley' . The emot icons are frequently used when a user does internet chatting or transmits/receives an e-mail, however, it is difficult to easily understand the user's intention if a recipient doesn't know the meanings of emoticons. The emoticons are widely used between teenagers and have various kinds and shapes, from facial expressions to human races, professions, characters and animals.
If a user uses the emoticons instead of writing point by point, in case of being subtle or shameful, a recipient feels interested and promptly understands the user's intention. Thus, forms of expressions are different in every country and emoticons newly appear one after another. In addition, a lot of emoticons are widely used as an internet language in Korea.
Their representative examples are shown as the following. For example, there are 'Λ_Λ' represented as a smiling expression, '*~V as a delightful expression, </vv;' as an awkward smiling expression, -O- as a satisfied expression, '?.?' as an embarrassed expression, ':)' as a comfortable expression and ':-(' as an unpleasant expression.
Unlike an emoticon SMS message, a picture SMS is a content provided in a black-and-white picture form, not a simple emoticon SMS form, from a terminal by using two or more SMS messages. Sometimes, it is difficult to provide a service for an emoticon SMS message in accordance with standards of mobile communication service providers and supported terminals. In this time, the provision of contents in form of a picture SMS enables a user to be provided with more plentiful contents.
An MMS (multimedia message service) is a messaging service for enabling a user to transmit various kinds of data such as still image, music, voice and moving image, etc., to a recipient and search for the data at the same time. In addition, the MMS is equipped with a message transmission/reception function in all provided from a conventional system such as a VMS (voice messaging system) and a UMS (unified messaging system) and supports transmission/reception of a high-capacity data such as moving images.
A service subscriber can receive or transmit various kinds of messages with multimedia components such as moving image news and moving image mails, in addition to an e-mail, a fax and a voice message anytime and anywhere, irrespective of kinds of terminals.
Specifically, due to appearance of IMT (international mobile telecommunication) 2000, that is a third-generation wireless communications, multimedia service functions of integrating voices, texts and moving images are remarkable, and thus the MMS comes into the spotlight as a next generation messaging service.
The emoticon and the MMS are media capable of transmitting a terminal user's intention more interestingly and variously in a mobile communication network. [Disclosure] [Technical Problem]
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for converting and then transmitting an SMS MO (short message service mobile oriented) message into an appropriate emoticon SMS or an MMS (multimedia messaging service) message according to a characteristic of a recipient terminal and a terminal user's intention of transmitting an SMS MO message so as to enable the terminal user to transmit messages more interestingly and variously by easily using an emoticon and an MMS.

[Description of Drawings]
The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will be more apparent from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating an SMS conversion system according to a desirable embodiment of the present invention; and
FIG. 2 is a flow chart schematically illustrating a process for converting an SMS MO message into an emoticon SMS or an MMS message according to the present invention. [Best Mode]
Hereinafter, a method for converting an SMS message to an emoticon SMS and an MMS message according to the prevent invention will be set forth in detail. First, in the entire description of the present invention, the same drawing reference numerals are used for the same elements across various figures. If it is judged that detail explanation for related configuration or function is not apparent, the detailed explanation will be omitted below. In addition, desirable exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail, however, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments disclosed hereinafter, but can be implemented in diverse forms. When a transmission terminal 10 transmits an SMS MO message (slOO), an SMS conversion server 30 receives the SMS MO message (s200).
The SMS conversion server 30 derives keyword lists corresponding to the received SMS MO message (s300). As such, a process for enabling the SMS conversion server 30 to derive the keyword lists, more particularly, includes: enabling the SMS conversion server 30 to classify the SMS MO message into words forming the SMS MO message (s310); enabling the SMS conversion server 30 to compare the words forming the SMS MO message with a previously stored keyword database 31 each other (s320); and enabling the SMS conversion server 30 to derive keyword lists corresponding to the words forming the SMS MO message (s330).
The SMS conversion server 30 selects a keyword according to priority order of the keyword lists derived in step 300 (s400). In this time, the SMS conversion server 30 can select a keyword by individually or compositively selecting one or more of a round robin rule, a long-word priority rule and a random rule described below.
In other words, the SMS conversion server 30 can select a keyword according to the round robin rule of searching for and selecting keywords in order, or the long-word priority rule of preferentially searching for and selecting a long keyword, or the random rule of randomly searching for and selecting a keyword of the keyword lists derived in step 300.
The SMS conversion server 30 selects contents related to the keyword selected in step 400 (s500). In this time, there are various contents related to one keyword, and thus it is important to determine how to select appropriate contents. In this case, a contents selection method can be similar to the keyword selection method described above in step 400. Accordingly, the SMS conversion server 30 can select contents by individually or compositively selecting one or more of a round robin rule, a random rule and a specified date priority rule described below.
In other words, the SMS conversion server 30 can select contents according to the round robin rule of searching for and selecting contents in order, or the random rule of randomly searching for and selecting contents, or the specific date priority rule of preferentially selecting specific contents which are previously set to be corresponded to a corresponding date of contents stored in a contents base 32 in a nationally or culturally special day such as a holiday or a legal holiday.
Meanwhile, if the contents selected by the SMS conversion server 30 are related to an emoticon SMS in step 500, they are emoticon contents in form of a text or picture contents in form of a black-white picture.
The SMS conversion server 30 converts an SMS MO message into an emoticon SMS or an MMS message in accordance with a characteristic of the reception terminal 20 and a user's intention of transmitting the SMS MO message by using the contents selected in step 500 (s600). In this time, the SMS conversion server 30 performs a process for attaching contents of the SMS MO message to the contents selected as an emoticon SMS and then standardizing the contents in accordance with SMS transmission standards, or a process for combining contents of the SMS MO message with image contents selected as an MMS and converting the contents into one content, then attaching sound contents to the content, and thus standardizing the contents in accordance with MMS transmission standards.
The SMS conversion server 30 transmits the emoticon SMS or MMS message converted and generated in step 600 to the reception terminal 20 (s700).
According to the above processes, even though a user transmits only an SMS MO message, a recipient can receive an emoticon SMS or an MMS message formed by integrally combining the SMS MO message with an emoticon, a text message, a picture, a voice, a moving image, etc.
It should be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that various replacements, modifications and changes in the form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the following claims. Therefore, it is to be appreciated that the above described embodiments are for purposes of illustration only and are not to be construed as limitations of the invention. [Industrial Applicability]
According to the present invention, even though a user transmits only an SMS MO message, a recipient can receive an emoticon SMS or an MMS message formed by integrally combining the SMS MO message with an emoticon, a text message, a picture, a voice, a moving image, etc. related to the SMS MO message. Accordingly, the user can transmit messages more interestingly and variously by easily using emot icons and MMS in a mobile communication network, and thus it is a technology widely used in a field of information communication technology, thereby implementing its practicable and economical value.
