DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The following is a detailed explanation together with the drawings of the preferred embodiments of the communication terminal, communication system, and control method according to the present invention. In the explanation of the drawings, the same element is given the same reference numeral, and duplication of explanations is omitted.
FIG. 1 shows the configuration of a communication terminal 10 (general term for a communication terminal 10a, 10b), and a communication system 1 that includes a plurality of communication terminals 10. The communication system 1 includes a communication network 2 in addition to the communication terminals 10. The communication network 2 includes a plurality of relay devices (LMMS) 20 (a general term for relay device 20a, 20b). In the present embodiment, the communication terminals 10 are mobile phones capable of mobile communication, and the communication network 2 is a mobile communication network. In other words, the communication system 1 is a mobile communication system. Each communication terminal 10 is used by its respective user, and users can converse with each other by connecting with another communication terminal 10 via the communication network 2. FIG. 1 only shows two communication terminals 10, but the communication system 1 includes many communication terminals 10. In the present embodiment, the communication terminal 10a is taken to be the terminal on the outgoing side (outgoing terminal), and the communication terminal 10b is taken to be the terminal on the incoming side (incoming terminal).
The outgoing terminal 10a can include display information in the transmitted call out signal when calling and connecting. The display information is displayed in the incoming terminal 10b that receives the call out signal. The display information is explained in more detail later.
The communication terminal 10 specifically includes a central processing unit (CPU), a memory, an antenna, and other mobile communication modules. As a result of the operation of these modules the communication terminal has each of the functions explained below. As shown in FIG. 1, the communication terminal 10 includes a display device 11, a call connection establishment unit 12, a transmitted information setting and adding unit 13, and a display control unit 14. In the communication terminal 10b, the transmitted information setting and adding unit 13 is not necessarily provided in the communication terminal 10. Also, in addition the communication terminal 10 has various means for achieving the function as a mobile phone, but explanation of these functions is omitted.
The display device 11 is a device that displays information regarding communication and the like in the communication terminal 10. The display device 11 is realized using for example a liquid crystal display or similar. The display device 11 is controlled by the display control unit 14 or similar. Also, the information displayed on the display device 11 is transmitted from the display control unit 14 and other constituent elements.
The call connection establishment unit 12 is a part that undertakes the function of calling and establishing a connection for communication. Specifically, the call connection establishment unit 12 includes a function as a transmission means for transmitting a call out signal for calling out to the communication terminal 10 of the communication party. Also, the call connection establishment unit 12 includes a function as call connection establishment means for establishing call connections, that receives call out signals transmitted to its own terminal 10 by another communication terminal 10. Also, the call connection establishment unit 12 includes a function as receiving means for receiving transmission notifications transmitted from the communication terminal 10 of the communication party, in response to call out signals transmitted from its own terminal 10. The transmission notifications indicate that display information included with the call out signals have been received by the communication terminal 10 of the communication party.
The call out signal is transmitted from the outgoing terminal 10a to the incoming terminal 10b when a call is requested (by the operation of the user, or similar), as stated above. The call out signal includes information on the telephone numbers of the outgoing terminal 10a and the incoming terminal 10b (information to specify the outgoing terminal 10a and the incoming terminal 10b).
The transmitted information setting and adding unit 13 is adding means for adding display information that is displayed in the communication terminal 10 of the communication party to the call out signal transmitted by the call connection establishment unit 12. The display information is used for the user of the outgoing terminal 10a to notify the user of the incoming terminal 10b of the purpose of the call, or for the transmitter to inform the receiver of who the transmitter is, and so on. In other words, the display information is used when the user of the outgoing terminal 10a wants to transmit any kind of message to the user of the incoming terminal 10b when making the call. The user of the incoming terminal 10b can decide whether to answer the call by referring to the display information displayed in the incoming terminal 10b. 
Specifically, the display information corresponds to, for example, text data with a determined number of characters. At this time, the maximum number of characters in the text data may be set to, for example, 10 characters, in accordance with the specification for the field in which the display information is included in the call out signal, the communication terminal 10, the communication system 1, and so on. In this case, the information is stored in advance in the transmitted information setting and adding unit 13.
If the communication system 1 is a third generation mobile communication system, the transmitted information setting and adding unit 13 preferably adds the display information to the call out signal by including the display information in the locking shift codeset 7 of the call out signal. The locking shift codeset is specified as a field in the call out signal in the standard for third generation mobile communication systems. In the standard for third generation mobile communication systems, there is no requirement regarding how the locking shift codeset is used, so in the present embodiment display information is included in the locking shift codeset.
In third generation mobile communication systems, the display information may also be included in the facility in the call out signal. However, compared with an information length of 30 octets in the facility, the locking shift codeset has a maximum of 255 octets. Therefore the capacity for future expansion is superior in the locking shift codeset, and it can be freely used by the operator. From this point of view therefore, it is preferable to use the locking shift codeset as the field to include the display information in the call out signal.
Also, the transmitted information setting and adding unit 13 has setting means for setting what kind of display information to add to the call out signal for transmission. Setting the display information is carried out in advance by input from the user, or similar. The display information may also be input by the user when calling out. A plurality of candidate display information for addition to a call out signal may be registered in advance in the transmitted information setting and adding unit 13, from which the user can select. In this case, the number of candidate display information items that can be registered in advance may be 10 or more. Transmission information set in this way is added to the call out signal by the transmitted information setting and adding unit 13 when calling out.
The display control unit 14 is a part that undertakes the function of transmitting information to be displayed on the display device 11, and controlling the display. Specifically, the display control unit 14 includes a function as display control means for displaying on the display device 11 (of its own terminal 10) the display information included in the call out signal by the transmitted information setting and adding unit 13, when a call out signal is transmitted by the call connection establishment unit 12 of its own terminal 10. The display control unit 14 detects the transmission of call out signals, by receiving notifications that a call out signal has been transmitted by the call connection establishment unit 12. Also, display control is carried out by receiving display information from the call connection establishment unit 12, and transmitting the display information to the display device 11. Also, the display control unit 14 carries out control to terminate the display of the display information in the call out signal when a transmission notification is received from the call connection establishment unit 12. Also, the display control unit 14 performs display on the display device 11 in accordance with the transmission notifications. This control is also carried out in the same way as control of the above display.
Further, the display control unit 14 includes a function as display control means for reading display information from a call out signal received by the call connection establishment unit 12 (transmitted from another communication terminal 10) and displaying on the display device 11 (of its own terminal 10) the display information that has been read. This display control is also carried out in the same way as control of the above display.
The above is an explanation of the configuration of each function of the communication terminal 10. Next, the relay device 20 is explained. A plurality of relay devices 20 are mutually connected to form the communication network 2. Each individual relay device 20 includes equipment for circuit control, and so on. Also, the relay device 20 includes a charge information generation device that generates charging information for the communication charges of the communication terminal 10. In FIG. 1 only two relay devices 20 are shown, but normally the communication network 2 includes many relay devices 20. Here, the relay device 20a is taken to be the relay device 20 in the communication network 2 near the outgoing terminal 10a, and the relay device 20b is taken to be the relay device 20 in the communication network 2 near the incoming terminal 10b. As shown in FIG. 1, the relay device 20 includes a communication network function unit 21 and a charge information generation unit 22. In FIG. 1, the charge information generation unit 22 in the relay device 20b near the incoming terminal 10b is not needed for explanation, so it is not shown on the drawing.
The communication network function unit 21 is a part that undertakes transmitting and receiving call out signals and other functions of the communication network 2 necessary for communication of the communication terminals 10. The charge information generation unit 22 is charge information generation means for generating charging information in connection with transmission of display information. The charge information generation unit 22 detects that transmission notifications transmitted from incoming communication terminals 10 that have received display information as described above have been transmitted to the outgoing communication terminal 10. When the communication network function unit 21 has transmitted a transmission notification, the charge information generation means 22 receives a notification of this fact from the communication network function unit 21. Also, at this time in addition the charge information generation unit 22 acquires from the communication network function unit 21 information that is necessary for generating charging information (information for identifying the outgoing terminal 10a, information on the amount of data that is subject to charge, and so on). The charge information generation unit 22 then generates charging information for the outgoing terminal 10a corresponding to the amount of data.
Next, a process (control method) implemented in the communication terminal 10 and communication system 1 according to the present embodiment is explained, using the sequence diagram in FIG. 2. This process is the process that is carried out when the outgoing terminal 10a including a message (display information) when calling out to the incoming terminal 10b. It is assumed that input by the user for setting the display information and so on, specifying the call out destination which is the incoming terminal 10b, and the operation of calling out have already been completed.
First, in the outgoing terminal 10a, the transmitted information setting and adding unit 13 carries out setting of display information (S01). This setting is carried out by, for example, receiving the input and selections of the user as described above. Specifically, text data such as “This is Hasegawa from xx Co., Ltd.” for example is set as display information. Next, the transmitted information setting and adding unit 13 adds the set display information to the call out signal (S02, adding step). Next, in the outgoing terminal 10a, the call connection establishment unit 12 transmits a call up signal addressed for the incoming terminal 10b to the communication network 2 (the relay device 20a near the outgoing terminal 10a) (S03, transmission step). This transmission is carried out via base stations (not shown on the drawings) or similar that are included in the communication network 2.
When the call out signal is transmitted, in the outgoing terminal 10a the display control unit 14 displays on the display device 11 the display information added to the call out signal. The display device 11 is controlled by the display control unit 14 to display the display information (S04, display control step). FIG. 3 shows an example of the display on the display device 11 of the outgoing terminal 10a at this time. As shown in FIG. 3, the text data that is the display information is displayed in a predetermined area 31 of the display portion of the display device 11. Also, as shown in FIG. 3, a display 32 that identifies the user of the incoming terminal 10b may also be displayed together with this display. The user of the outgoing terminal 10a can confirm the content of the display displayed in the incoming terminal 10b when calling, by referring to the display information displayed.
When the call out signal is transmitted, in the relay device 20a the communication network function unit 21 receives the call out signal. The communication network function unit 21 looks up the information or similar indicating the telephone number of the incoming terminal 10b included in the call out signal, identifies the relay device 20b that is to be connected to, and transmits a connection request to the relay device 20b, based on the call out signal (S05). At this time the display information included in the call out signal is also transmitted.
Next, at the relay device 20b, the communication network function unit 21 receives the connection request from the relay device 20a. The communication network function unit 21 looks up the information or similar indicating the telephone number of the incoming terminal 10b included in the call out signal, identifies the incoming terminal 10b to which an incoming request is to be sent, and transmits an incoming request to the incoming terminal 10b (S06). This incoming request is transmitted as an incoming request from the outgoing terminal 10a. At this time the display information included in the call out signal is also transmitted. Also, this transmission is carried out via base stations (not shown in the drawings) included in the communication network 2.
When the incoming request is transmitted, at the incoming terminal 10b, the call connection establishment unit 12 receives the incoming request. Next, the call connection establishment unit 12 sends a response in respect of the incoming request to the relay device 20b (S07), and the call process is carried out with respect to the incoming terminal 10b. 
Next, in the incoming terminal 10b, the display control unit 14 receives the display information included in the incoming request from the call connection establishment unit 12, and displays the display information on the display device 11. The display device 11 is controlled by the display control unit 14 to display the display information (S08). This display is displayed while the call process is being carried out. FIG. 4 shows an example of the display on the display device 11 of the incoming terminal 10b at this time. As shown in FIG. 4, the text data that is the display information is displayed in a predetermined area 41 of the display portion of the display device 11. Also, as shown in FIG. 4, a display 42 that identifies the user of the outgoing terminal 10a may also be displayed together with this display. The user of the incoming terminal 10b can confirm the call out message of the user of the outgoing terminal 10a, by referring to the display information displayed. If the call is answered, normally the incoming history is recorded in the incoming terminal 10b, but the display information is not necessarily recorded in the incoming history.
Next, in the incoming terminal 10b, the call connection establishment unit 12 transmits a transmission notification addressed to the outgoing terminal 10a, indicating that the display information has been received, to the communication network 2 (the relay device 20b near the incoming terminal 10b) (S09).
In the present embodiment, the incoming terminal 10b can receive display information, but if the incoming terminal 10b cannot receive display information, the transmission notification is not sent. Cases where display information cannot be received include the case when the incoming terminal 10b does not have the function of displaying display information added to the call out signal. Also, there is the case where the incoming terminal 10b is not set to display the display information added to the call out signal. Also, there is the case where the incoming request itself based on the call out signal cannot be received, because the incoming terminal 10b is outside the reception area.
When the transmission notification is transmitted by the incoming terminal 10b, in the relay device 20b the communication network function unit 21 receives the transmission notification, and transmits the transmission notification to the relay device 20a (S10). In the relay device 20a the communication network function unit 21 receives the transmission notification, and transmits the transmission notification to the outgoing terminal 10a (S11).
In the incoming terminal 10a, the call connection establishment unit 12 receives the transmission notification. When the transmission notification is received, in the outgoing terminal 10a, the display control unit 14 terminates the display of the display information on the display device 11, and displays a display corresponding to the transmission notification (S12, receiving step, display control step). The display corresponding to the transmission notification is a display indicating that the display information has been displayed in the incoming terminal 10b. The user of the outgoing terminal 10a can refer to the display, and reliably confirm that the display information has been displayed in the incoming terminal 10b. 
Also, in the outgoing terminal 10a, if the transmission notification has not been received within a predetermined period of time after transmission of the call out signal, it is determined that the display information has not been transmitted to the incoming terminal 10b. In this case, in the outgoing terminal 10a, the display control unit 14 displays a message on the display device 11 that the display information has not been displayed in the incoming terminal 10b. This display may be a simple pictorial display.
When the above process is completed, a ring back tone process is carried out between the outgoing terminal 10a and the incoming terminal 10b (S13). Then the call is carried out between the outgoing terminal 10a and the incoming terminal 10b. 
Then in the relay device 20a near the outgoing terminal 10a, the charge information generation unit 22 detects that a transmission notification has been transmitted to the outgoing terminal 10a, and generates the charging information for the transmission of the display information (S14, charge information generating step). The user of the outgoing terminal 10a is charged based on the generated charging information.
As stated above, in the present embodiment, in the outgoing terminal 10a, when an outgoing signal is transmitted, the display information displayed in the incoming terminal 10b is also displayed in the outgoing terminal 10a. By referring to the display, the user can confirm the message transmitted from the outgoing terminal 10a to the user of the incoming terminal 10b when calling out. In this way, according to the present embodiment, a user can confirm what message has been sent to the communication party when calling out, so it is possible to improve the convenience of the user.
Also, as stated above, if the termination of display of the display information in the outgoing terminal 10a is triggered by receipt of the transmission notification, the termination of the display of the display information can be carried out at a timing that is desirable for the use of the communication terminal 10 by the user. Also, by carrying out the display in accordance with the transmission notification, the user of the outgoing terminal 10a can confirm whether the display information has been displayed in the incoming terminal 10b. In this way, the convenience of the user can be improved.
If the communication system 1 is a third generation mobile communication system, and if the display information is included in the locking shift codeset of the call out signal, the present invention can simply and reliably be implemented in a third generation mobile communication system.
Also, if, as in the present embodiment, the charging information is generated in the relay device 20a after the transmission notification has been transmitted to the outgoing terminal 10a, the convenience of the user can be improved, and also control of charging associated with the transmission of display information is simplified. Also, the charging information is generated only when the display information is displayed in the incoming terminal 10b (charging information is not generated when the display information is not displayed). Therefore, it is possible to charge appropriately.
The embodiment as described above can also be implemented when the call and connection between the outgoing terminal 10a and the incoming terminal 10b is established through roaming. Also, the present embodiment can be implemented with videophone systems. Also, in the present embodiment the communication system was a mobile communication system 1. However, other systems may be used, for example a cable telephone system.
Also, in the present embodiment, the display information is displayed unconditionally in the incoming terminal 10b to which the display information was transmitted. However, it is possible for the display information to be not displayed, depending on the setting. In this case, incoming requests from the outgoing terminal 10a can be set to not display in accordance with whether the telephone number of the outgoing terminal 10a is displayed or not, or whether the outgoing terminal 10a associated with the incoming request is registered in the memory of the incoming terminal 10b or not.
