A telephone call recording database 5, a personal information database 6 for personal identification of the callee in which personal related information of the callee associated with the telephone call recording voice stored in the telephone call recording database 5 is stored, and a telephone number. And a memory dial database 7 for recording information such as the name of the holder of the number, a display unit 8 for displaying, an input unit 9 for performing operations, etc., and a speaker for inputting and outputting voice during a call. And a microphone 10.

FIGS. 2 to 4 are flowcharts showing the operation of the present invention. Hereinafter, the operation of the present embodiment will be described in detail with reference to FIGS.

Data for comparison with the incoming voice recorded in the incoming voice recording area 4 must be stored in advance in the voice recording database 5. Will be described with reference to FIG.

First, the user gives an instruction to the control unit 3 using the input unit 8 and the display unit 9 to request that the call voice during the call be registered in the call voice recording database 5 (step 21). . The control unit 3 which has received the request instruction from the input unit 8 performs a setting to store the voice during the call in the voice call recording database 5 in association with the called party information by the voice recording means during the call (step 22).

In this setting state, if there is an incoming call to the portable telephone at the radio unit 2, the control unit 3 reads out the mode set by the incoming call control setting means (step 23).
If it is the normal response control setting, the control unit 3 uses the called party identification means to identify whether the incoming call has been notified of the caller ID or not (step 24).

In the case of an incoming call for which the caller ID is being notified, the control unit 3 compares the memory dial data in the memory dial database 7 with the call number data, specifies the callee, and sends the information to the display unit 9. Handover to indicate that you are receiving a call. In the case of an incoming call for which the caller ID is not notified, only the incoming call status information is passed to the display unit 9 (step 2).
5).

When there is a request for an incoming call response from the user, the control unit 3 responds to the incoming call using the incoming call response control means (step 26). In response to the incoming call, the control section 3 reads out the setting of the voice recording means during the call (step 27). When the recording setting is set, the control unit 3 stores the voice during the call in the call voice recording database 5 for a certain period of time in association with the called party information acquired in step 25 (step 28).

In most cases, when a call is started, the called party first announces his / her own name. If a voice is recorded for a certain period of time from the beginning, the called party is included in the recorded portion. In many cases, if this part is stored in the call voice recording database 5 in association with the called party information, it is easy to obtain a match at the time of voice data comparison and collation described later.

Next, the flow of the incoming voice recording process of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

Using the input unit 8 and the display unit 9, the user requests a setting for saving the voice of the incoming call to the incoming voice recording area 4 inside the mobile phone without performing a normal response process when receiving the incoming call. (Step 31). The control unit 3 having received the request instruction from the input unit 8 uses the incoming call control setting unit to
At the time of an incoming call, a setting is made for a process of recording a call voice by a missed call response (step 32).

If there is an incoming call to the radio unit 2, the control unit 3 reads the mode set by the incoming call control setting means (step 33). If the setting is a call voice recording process based on the missed call response, the control unit 3 uses the called party identification means to identify whether the incoming call has been notified of the caller ID or not (step 34).

In the case of an incoming call for which the caller ID is being notified, the control section 3 compares the memory dial data in the memory dial database 7 with the calling number data to specify the called party. However, if the called party cannot be identified from the memory dial database 7, only the missed call response recording state information is passed to the display unit 9 (step 35).

The control unit 3 determines from the specified called party data
The information registered in the callee identification personal information database 6 is specified by using the registered personal data search means (step 36), and a missed call response is made by the call response control means (step 37), and step 36 The registered personal data specified in step 3 is transferred to the display unit 9 to indicate that the missed call response is being recorded (step 3).
8).

Then, the control unit 3 uses the voice data recording means to store and record the voice of the call in response to the missed call response (step 39), and records it in the incoming voice recording area 4.

If it is determined in step 35 that the incoming call has not been notified of the caller number, the control unit 3 first responds to the missed call by the incoming call response control means (step 41).
In response to the incoming call, the control unit 3 uses the voice data recording means to record the incoming voice of the call voice in response to the missed call.
(Step 42).

When the recording process is completed, the control unit 3 compares the recorded voice data with the voice data registered in the telephone call voice recording database 5 by using the voice data comparing means, and the voice data matches. The voice data is searched (step 43).

When matching voice data is found, the control section 3 reads out the called party information stored in association with the call voice recording database 5.
However, if no matching voice data is found, only the missed call response recording state information is passed to the display unit 9 (step 44).

The control unit 3 calculates
Information registered in the called party identification personal information database 6 is specified by using registered personal data search means (step 45). As the called party identification personal information, the called party's name, telephone number, animation or portrait registered in association with the called party can be used.

Then, the control unit 3 transfers the registered personal data specified in step 45 to the display unit 9 and displays the registered personal data on the display unit 9 to notify the user that the missed call response recording is being performed (step 46). ).

In the above embodiment, the method of displaying the registered personal information from the recorded voice data has been described. The caller identification is performed by comparing and comparing the voice information of the part with the voice data registered in the call voice recording database 5, and during the call, the personal identification information data is read from the registered personal information database and transmitted on the display screen. Functions such as displaying an animated image or portrait of the user, changing the color of the LED, and the like can also be provided.
