FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a schematic configuration for explaining a mobile communication system according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The system shown in FIG. 1 mainly includes mobile terminals 1A to 1C and a mobile communication center 3 connected to the mobile terminals 1A to 1C via the mobile communication network 2. This system is a system in which a second user uses the mobile terminal device of the first user who owns the mobile terminal device during a call or mail transmission / reception to perform mail transmission / reception or a call via a mobile communication center. In addition, in this Embodiment, although the three portable terminals 1A-1C were shown, the number is not limited and is arbitrary. In the present embodiment, the user of mobile terminal 1A is referred to as “Mr. A”, the user of mobile terminal 1B is referred to as “Mr. B”, and the user of mobile terminal 1C is referred to as “Mr. C”.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the mobile terminal 1A has a function (this is referred to as an “amoeba service function”) that can charge the borrowed person even when a user other than the user borrows it. 1C and 1B are assumed to be ordinary mobile terminals that do not have an amoeba service function. By enabling the amoeba service function in the mobile terminal 1A, for example, when Mr. B borrows A's mobile terminal 1A and makes a call, he can charge Mr. B.

  In FIG. 1, each of the mobile terminals 1 </ b> A to 1 </ b> C can transmit and receive information to and from the mobile communication center 3 via the mobile communication network 2. Each of the mobile terminals 1A to 1C has an operating system (mobile device OS), and a browser function, a viewer function, a JAM (Java (registered trademark) Application Manager) and other functions operate on the mobile device OS.

  The mobile communication network 2 is a network between the mobile terminals 1 </ b> A to 1 </ b> C and the mobile communication center 3. The mobile communication network 2 includes a mobile packet communication network in addition to a normal mobile communication network.

  The mobile communication center 3 uses the “user name”, “phone number”, “mail address”, “password”, and “relationship between the two mobile terminals (users) (main and secondary) of the mobile terminal that uses the amoeba service. "In a table format. FIG. 2 shows an example of registration information. In the amoeba service, two mobile terminals (users) are associated with each other, and one is “main” and the other is “sub”. In the example shown in FIG. 2, the mobile terminal 1A of Mr. A is “main”, and the mobile terminal 1B of Mr. B is “secondary”. This relationship is when B borrows A's portable terminal 1A. That is, Mr. B forgets to own his mobile terminal 1B and borrows A's mobile terminal 1A. When Mr. A receives a borrowing request from Mr. B, an operation for associating his portable terminal 1A with his portable terminal 1B using the amoeba service, specifically, a predetermined item (B 2 is created on the mobile communication center 3 side by registering by inputting (identification information such as a telephone number and e-mail address and authentication information such as a password). Note that the number of mobile terminals to be “secondary” is not limited to one, but can be any number. Further, the relationship between the “main” and “sub” is not limited to the above, and may be reversed.

  FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of each portable terminal 1A shown in FIG. Note that the configuration shown in FIG. 3 is simplified for the purpose of describing the present invention, and is assumed to include components mounted on a normal mobile terminal.

  1 A of portable terminals are the control part 11 which controls the whole apparatus, the communication control part 12 which communicates between the mobile communication centers 3 via the mobile communication network 2, and the display part which displays various data and various information 13, an operation unit 14 for operating the device and inputting various data, and a verification unit for verifying the password sent from the mobile communication center 3 at the time of incoming call and the password input by the operation unit 14 15 and an application control unit 16 that activates various applications installed or downloaded in the apparatus.

  The communication control unit 12 transmits the registration information input when the user uses the amoeba service to the mobile communication center 3. Further, the communication control unit 12 permits a call or mail acquisition for an incoming call when a password verification (authentication) is performed in the verification unit 15 described later, and a password input by Mr. B when performing outgoing call or mail transmission. Is sent out.

  The application control unit 16 activates an amoeba phone application that is installed in the device or downloaded. The amoeba phone application is an application that realizes an amoe phone by performing “initial registration processing”, “voice incoming processing”, and “voice outgoing processing” for receiving an amoeba service. In the initial registration process, information on “phone number”, “mail address”, and “password” is registered. For example, when Mr. B borrows Mr. A's mobile terminal 1A, the phone number of Mr. B's mobile terminal 1B, "Mail address", Mr. B's mail address, and "Password", Mr. B's password. Enter each.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an initial registration screen image at the time of initial information registration. (A) is a menu screen, (b) is an authentication screen, and (c) is an amoeba service user information input screen. Needless to say, any screen is displayed on the display unit 13. When Mr. A who is a user of the portable terminal 1A receives a borrowing request from Mr. B, he selects “Ameba Service” on the menu screen and inputs his password (“4582”) on the authentication screen. Next, on the amoeba service user information input screen, Mr. B's phone number ("090-8888-6666"), Mr. B's password ("2546"), and Mr. B's address ("abc@docomo.ne.jp") )).

  The registration information obtained by inputting necessary items for using the amoeba service in this way is sent to the mobile communication center 3. Thereby, a data table as shown in FIG. 2 is created in the mobile communication center 3. As registration information, “valid” and “invalid” can be arbitrarily selected on the mobile terminal side where the registration information is registered. In other words, once the registration information is registered, if “valid” is selected when the amoeba service is required, the amoeba service can be used immediately without registering the registration information again. Of course, the registration information can be arbitrarily deleted.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a screen image at the time of voice incoming call processing. In the incoming voice call processing, when an incoming call is received with a service user number (for example, Mr. B's phone number), the “caller's phone number” and the “caller's phone number (service user number) shown in FIG. ) "Is displayed. When an on-hook operation is performed in this state, an amoeba service password input screen for inputting an amoeba service password (service user password) shown in FIG. 6B is displayed. When the borrower enters his password, the call is established. In the example shown in FIG. 6, Mr. C's phone number (090-1234-5678) is displayed as the caller's phone number, and Mr. B's phone number (090-8888-6666) is displayed as the caller's phone number. Yes. If the password entered by Mr. B matches the password sent from the mobile communication center 3, a call can be made with Mr. C's portable terminal 1C. That is, a call can be made between the mobile terminal 1A and the mobile terminal 1C. Password verification is performed by the verification unit 15.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a screen image at the time of voice transmission processing. In the voice call processing, when the service user (for example, Mr. B) selects “NW service (network service)” on the normal menu screen shown in FIG. 7A, the amoephone service screen shown in FIG. indicate. When the service user selects “call” on the amoeba phone service screen, an input screen for inputting a “password” and a “destination telephone number” is displayed. A “call button” is displayed on this input screen. When the service user inputs the password and the destination telephone number, and then selects the “call button”, the call is made with the destination telephone number.

  In the input screen shown in FIG. 7C, the password is not displayed as it is input, but is displayed as “***”. The destination phone number is displayed as entered.

  FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of the mobile communication center 3 shown in FIG. Note that the configuration shown in FIG. 4 is simplified for explaining the present invention, and it is assumed that the components mounted in a normal mobile communication center are provided.

  The mobile communication center 3 includes a control unit 31 that controls the entire apparatus, a communication control unit 32 that communicates with the mobile terminals 1A to 1C via the mobile communication network 2, and information on mobile terminals that use the amoeba service. , A terminal search unit 34 for searching for a mobile terminal (for example, Mr. A's mobile terminal 1A borrowed by Mr. B), and a mobile terminal (A-san) using the amoeba service. When the mobile terminal 1A) makes a call, an authentication unit 35 that authenticates a password sent from the mobile terminal, and an application control unit 36 that activates various applications that are installed in the device or downloaded. The charge management unit 37 mainly manages the charge of the service user (for example, Mr. B).

  The communication control unit 32 receives registration information sent from a mobile terminal that uses an amoeba service (for example, Mr. A's mobile terminal 1A), and is sent when a mobile terminal that is using the amoeba service makes a call. Receive incoming passwords. The service registration unit 33 creates the data table shown in FIG. 2 based on the registration information sent from the mobile terminal that uses the amoeba service. Thereby, the service registration unit 33 manages user information for associating at least the first user Mr. A with the second user Mr. B. When a call is made from another mobile terminal (for example, Mr. C's mobile terminal 1C) to the mobile terminal that is using the amoeba service, the terminal search unit 34 is based on information from the base station (not shown). Search for a mobile terminal in use.

  In the mobile communication system having such a configuration, for example, it is assumed that Mr. A who is a user of the portable terminal 1A and Mr. B who is a user of the portable terminal 1B are together, and Mr. B forgets to own his own portable terminal 1B. . In this situation, when Mr. B borrows Mr. A's mobile terminal 1A, the billing will be charged to Mr. A as it is, so the amoeba service is used. First, Mr. A selects the menu screen of his / her mobile terminal 1A (FIG. 5A), and selects the amoeba service from this menu screen. Thereby, an amoeba phone application starts and the amoeba service password input screen is displayed on the display unit 13 of the mobile terminal 1A (FIG. 5B).

  Mr. A inputs his password on this amoeba service password input screen, and further inputs Mr. B's phone number, password and address in turn. After the user's password, Mr. B's telephone number, the password and the address have been entered, an operation for transmitting the registration information to the mobile communication center 3 is performed. Thereby, registration information is transmitted to the mobile communication center 3 from A's portable terminal 1A. When the mobile communication center 3 receives the registration information sent from the portable terminal 1A, the mobile communication center 3 creates a data table shown in FIG. 2 based on the information. Thereby, the initial registration of the amoeba service is completed.

  After Mr. C makes a call to Mr. B's mobile terminal 1B after the initial registration of the amoeba service is completed, the mobile communication center 3 checks whether the destination B's phone number is in use of the amoeba service. Check. In this case, if there is a corresponding telephone number in the service registration unit 33 of the mobile communication center 3, a call is made to the telephone number which is “main” in relation to the user of the telephone number. That is, Mr. B's mobile terminal 1B is not called, but Mr. A's mobile terminal 1A is called. At this time, the mobile communication center 3 sends Mr. B's password.

  When a call is made to the mobile terminal 1A, the mobile terminal 1A displays the caller's phone number (C's phone number: 090-1234-5678) and the caller's phone number (B's phone number) on the display unit 13. : 090-8888-9999) are simultaneously displayed. In the case of a direct call to Mr. A, such a display is not performed and a normal call screen is displayed. Mr. A who sees this display determines that the call is for Mr. B, and gives his mobile terminal 1A to Mr. B. Mr. B looks at the screen of the portable terminal 1A and inputs his password (2546).

  When Mr. B's password is input, the portable terminal 1A collates the password sent from the mobile communication center 3 with the password entered by Mr. B. If they match, the portable terminal 1A communicates with Mr. C's portable terminal 1C. Allow calls. This allows Mr. C to talk to Mr. B.

  On the other hand, when Mr. B borrows Mr. A's portable terminal 1A and makes a call to Mr. C (that is, when making a call), Mr. B is networked from the menu screen (FIG. 7A) of the display unit 13 of the portable terminal 1A. Select a service. As a result, “Outgoing” of the amoephone service is displayed (FIG. 7B), and Mr. B selects this. Next, the user's password and Mr. C's phone number are entered on the screen for entering the password and the destination phone number (FIG. 7C). After entering the password and telephone number, Mr. B selects the “call button” displayed on the screen. As a result, call information including Mr. B's password and Mr. C's telephone number is sent to the mobile communication center 3.

  The mobile communication center 3 authenticates Mr. B's password from the call information sent from the portable terminal 1A. If Mr. B's password is registered in the service registration unit 33, the mobile communication center 3 communicates with Mr. C's portable terminal 1C. Establish a call between. Thereby, Mr. B can talk with Mr. C. The billing at this time is charged to the telephone number of Mr. B's mobile terminal 1B. That is, even if Mr. B borrows A's mobile terminal 1A and makes a call, Mr. B will be charged.

  When Mr. A and Mr. B are separated, Mr. A performs an operation to cancel the amoeba phone service. That is, an operation of invalidating or deleting registration information is performed. By performing this operation, Mr. A's mobile terminal 1A does not receive a call for Mr. B, and the call for Mr. B arrives at Mr. B's mobile terminal 1B.

  As described above, in the mobile communication system according to the present embodiment, registration information (mutual phone number, password, “main” and “sub” relationship) for linking with B is created in the mobile terminal 1A. When the mobile communication center 3 detects an incoming call to the mobile terminal 1B, the mobile communication center 3 receives the incoming call to the mobile terminal 1A that is “main” with respect to the mobile terminal 1B. When the password of the portable terminal 1B is sent and the portable terminal 1A detects an incoming call, the password entered by the user of the portable terminal 1B is collated with the password registered in the mobile communication center 3, and they match. Allows calls to the originating mobile device. On the other hand, when the user of the mobile terminal 1B uses the mobile terminal 1A to enter his / her password and the destination telephone number to make a call, the mobile communication center 3 authenticates the sent password and authenticates the mobile terminal. If it is determined that the user is a 1B user, a call with the other party is permitted and the user of the portable terminal 1B is charged.

  Accordingly, since the incoming call to the portable terminal 1B can be redirected to the portable terminal 1A by associating Mr. B with Mr. A, the user of the portable terminal 1B can take the portable terminal 1A even if he does not have his own portable terminal 1B. You can receive incoming calls. Further, when a call is made from the mobile terminal 1A, the mobile terminal 1B is charged, so the user of the mobile terminal 1B can make a call using the mobile terminal 1A without worrying about charging.

However, the mobile communication system according to the present embodiment provides an amoeba service for sending and receiving electronic mail. The configurations of the mobile terminal and the mobile communication center of the mobile communication system according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention are the same as those shown in FIGS. However, the mobile communication system of the present embodiment does not necessarily have a call function. The registration information registered in the service registration unit 33 of the mobile communication center 3 includes “user name”, “mail address”, “password” and “relationship between two mobile terminals (mainly) And sub) ”are managed in a table format.

  FIG. 8 shows an example of registration information. The example shown in the figure is composed of information on Mr. A and Mr. B. The information of Mr. A is an email address: “midia @ dikama”, a password: “4582”, and a relationship: “main”. Further, Mr. B's information is a mail address: “kaoeike @ llgui”, a password: “2546”, and a relationship: “sub”. In this case, Mr. B is associated with Mr. A.

  The application control unit 16 of the mobile terminal 1A activates the amoephone application installed in the device or downloaded. This amoeba phone application is an application that realizes an amoe phone by performing mail transmission / reception processing for receiving an amoeba service.

  In the mail transmission / reception process, when an incoming mail is sent to a service user (for example, Mr. B), a message is displayed on the screen to notify that the mail addressed to the service user has arrived. When the service user selects the display, a menu screen is displayed. This menu screen includes an “amoeba service” item. When the service user selects this “amoeba service” item, a menu screen dedicated to the service user is displayed. This menu screen has an item “Mailbox”, and when the “Ameba Service” item is selected by the service user, a password authentication screen is displayed.

  When the service user inputs his / her password on the password authentication screen, the input password is transmitted to the mobile communication center 3 and the mobile communication center 3 authenticates the password. The mobile communication center 3 sends password authentication to the portable terminal 1A. When confirmation is made at the mobile communication center 3, a mailbox screen dedicated to the service user is displayed. When the service user looks at the mailbox screen and performs a new mail reading operation, the new mail is opened and displayed.

(C) is a menu screen of a service user (for example, Mr. B), and an item of “mailbox” is displayed on this menu screen. (D) is a password authentication screen, and a password input box is displayed on the password authentication screen. (E) is a mailbox screen of the service user, and a newly created input box and reception box are displayed on this mailbox screen. (F) is a new mail display screen on which new mail is displayed.

  In the mobile communication system having such a configuration, for example, it is assumed that Mr. A who is a user of the portable terminal 1A and Mr. B who is a user of the portable terminal 1B are together, and Mr. B forgets to own his own portable terminal 1B. . In this situation, when Mr. B borrows Mr. A's mobile terminal 1A and sends a mail, the billing is charged to Mr. A as it is, so the amoeba service is used. First, Mr. A selects the menu screen of his portable terminal 1A, and selects the amoeba service from this menu screen. Thereby, an amoeba phone application starts and the amoeba service password input screen is displayed on the display unit 13 of the mobile terminal 1A.

  Mr. A inputs his password on this amoeba service password input screen, and further inputs Mr. B's mail address and password in order. After inputting the user's own password, Mr. B's mail address, and the password, an operation of transmitting the registration information to the mobile communication center 3 is performed. Thereby, registration information is transmitted to the mobile communication center 3 from A's portable terminal 1A. When receiving the registration information sent from the mobile terminal 1A, the mobile communication center 3 creates a data table shown in FIG. 8 based on the information. Thereby, the initial registration of the amoeba service is completed.

  After C completes the initial registration of the amoeba service, when Mr. C sends an e-mail to Mr. B's mobile terminal 1B, the mobile communication center 3 checks whether Mr. B's e-mail address is in use of the amoeba service. In this case, if there is a corresponding mail address in the service registration unit 33 of the mobile communication center 3, a mail addressed to the service user arrives at a mail address that is “main” in relation to the user of the mail address. Notifications are made to inform you that you are doing. At this time, the mobile communication center 3 sends Mr. B's password.

  When the incoming mail notification is sent to the mobile terminal 1A, the mobile terminal 1A displays a message (“There is mail incoming to B”) indicating that there is an incoming mail addressed to the service user on the display unit 13. In the case of incoming mail to Mr. A, such a display is not performed, and a normal incoming call notification is displayed. Mr. A who sees this display determines that there is an email addressed to Mr. B, selects the amoeba service from his menu screen, and passes his portable terminal 1A to Mr. B. Mr. B looks at the screen of the mobile terminal 1A, selects a mailbox from his own menu screen, and inputs his password (“2546”).

  When Mr. B's password is entered, the portable terminal 1A collates the password sent from the mobile communication center 3 with the password entered by Mr. B. If they match, the mailbox screen dedicated to Mr. B is displayed. Is displayed. When Mr. B looks at this mailbox screen and selects new arrival in the inbox, the mobile terminal 1A refers to Mr. B's mailbox, and retrieves and displays new mail. Thereby, Mr. B can see the mail from Mr. C.

Thereby, Mr. C can see the mail from Mr. B, and the billing at this time is charged to Mr. B's mobile terminal 1B. That is, even if Mr. B borrows Mr. A's mobile terminal 1A and sends a mail, Mr. B will be charged.

  When Mr. A and Mr. B are separated, Mr. A performs an operation to cancel the amoeba phone service. That is, an operation of invalidating or deleting registration information is performed. By performing this operation, the incoming notification specifying Mr. B is not sent to the mobile terminal 1A of Mr. A.

  Thus, in the mobile communication system according to the present embodiment, registration information (mutual mail address, password, “main” and “sub” relationship) to be associated with Mr. B is created in the mobile terminal 1A. When the mobile communication center 3 detects the incoming mail to the mobile terminal 1B, the mobile communication center 3 notifies the mobile terminal 1B of the incoming mail to the mobile terminal 1A that is “main”. The mobile terminal 1A sends the password of the mobile terminal 1B, and the mobile terminal 1A that has received the notification of the incoming mail collates the password entered by the user of the mobile terminal 1B with the password registered in the mobile communication center 3, and matches them. If you get mail from mailbox. On the other hand, when the user of the portable terminal 1B creates a mail using the portable terminal 1A and transmits the created mail and his / her password, the mobile communication center 3 authenticates the sent password, and the portable terminal 1B If it is determined that the user is a user, the mail created by the user of the mobile terminal 1B is transferred to the mailbox of the other party, and the user of the mobile terminal 1B is charged.

  Therefore, since it is possible to notify the mobile terminal 1A of incoming mail to the mobile terminal 1B by associating Mr. B with Mr. A, the user of the mobile terminal 1B can use the mobile terminal without having his own mobile terminal 1B. Mail can be acquired with 1A. Further, when mail is transmitted from the mobile terminal 1A, charging is imposed on the mobile terminal 1B, so that the user of the mobile terminal 1B can perform mail transmission using the mobile terminal 1A without worrying about charging.

  In the above-described embodiment, a case has been described in which new mail is read and mail is created and transmitted. However, when only mail is created, an operation is performed from the menu screen of FIG. 9B. good.

  The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be implemented with various modifications. For example, the processing unit and the processing procedure can be changed as appropriate without departing from the scope of the present invention. Other modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
