Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a communication terminal providing a VoIP call function, and more particularly, to a method for managing a state of a communication terminal providing a VoIP call function in a fixed mobile convergence (FMC) service and a communication terminal therefor.
Wired communication networks are developing into IP-based NGN (Next Generation Network) networks, and wireless communication networks are also developing into IP-based wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) networks. Accordingly, wired and wireless communication networks, which have been developed so far, are being integrated on an IP basis, and this integration technology is called fixed mobile convergence (FMC). With the development of wired / wireless integrated technology, multi-band multi-mode terminals can use IP-based Internet telephony (VoIP) by connecting to a wired communication network, and at the same time, can use ordinary mobile communication services by connecting to a mobile communication network such as WCDMA. Is being developed.
In the use of such a multi-band multi-mode terminal, a typical mobile communication service has its service area expanded to a nationwide range, so that call disconnection does not almost occur when making a voice call. However, when using an internet phone using a multi-band multi-mode terminal, the Wi-Fi network is connected to a Wi-Fi network through a nearby wireless LAN. The Wi-Fi network has a very limited service area and a narrow service radius. This happens very frequently.
In particular, in the case of an IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) based Internet telephony service, a VoIP client of a multiband multimode terminal basically uses an Internet telephony service after registering a service with an IMS system. When the wireless environment is drastically degraded and the multi-band multi-mode terminal suddenly leaves the service area, the VoIP client frequently fails to release the service registration to the IMS system.
Therefore, in the IMS system, even though the multi-band multi-mode terminal leaves the service area, the terminal continuously manages the state of the terminal as a service registration state. Accordingly, when an incoming call flows in, an incoming call announcement cannot be provided to the calling party. Incoming call processing increases the dissatisfaction with the call service, and also causes a problem that wrong information is delivered in providing presence information such as a login, a screen name, an available service, and the like.
The present invention has been proposed to improve the above problems, and relates to a terminal state management method for accurately reflecting the VoIP service state in a communication network in a communication terminal providing a VoIP call service in a WLAN communication environment and a communication terminal for the same will be.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be described below and will be appreciated by the practice of the invention. Further, objects and advantages of the present invention can be realized by the means and the combination shown in the appended claims.
In accordance with an aspect of the present invention, a communication terminal includes: a WLAN module for performing short-range communication with a WLAN access point; A WLAN connection manager managing a connection between the WLAN module and the WLAN access point, the WLAN connection manager notifying when a signal strength of the WLAN access point is less than a first threshold; And a VoIP client performing Voice over IP (VoIP) registration to a communication network through the WLAN module and performing a VoIP call, and upon receiving notification of the WLAN connection manager, releases the VoIP registration to the communication network (De -registration) VoIP client.
In addition, according to another aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object, a terminal state management method of a communication terminal providing a VoIP call function, the step of accessing the WLAN access point; Performing VoIP registration to a communication network through the WLAN access point; Monitoring signal strength of the WLAN access point to determine whether it is less than a first threshold; And de-registration of the VoIP registration to the communication network through the WLAN access point when the signal strength becomes smaller than the first threshold.
The present invention as described above, by accurately synchronizing the VoIP service status information of the communication terminal managed by the VoIP service server of the communication network and the actual communication terminal state to enable efficient presence service, and also the communication terminal leaving the WLAN service area This improves the satisfaction of VoIP service by preventing unnecessary VoIP call call processing.
The foregoing and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of the present invention when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which: There will be. In the following description, well-known functions or constructions are not described in detail since they would obscure the invention in unnecessary detail. Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Here, it is preferable that the first threshold for deregistering VoIP and the second threshold for informing the call quality are different from each other. More preferably, the second threshold for informing call quality is greater than the first threshold for VoIP deregistration. While the second threshold for informing call quality is a value for the minimum call quality acceptable to the user, the first threshold for VoIP deregistration is related to the service radius of the WLAN access point irrelevant to the call quality. to be.
In addition, the
In addition, when the terminal is disconnected from the access point because the terminal deviates from the service radius of the access point, the
2 is a flowchart illustrating a method of managing terminal state information in a communication terminal providing a VoIP service according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 2, the communication terminal 100 providing a VoIP service receives an input related to a VoIP call (eg, a VoIP turn-on input) from a user through an input means (S201). As a method of input, a menu associated with a VoIP call may be selected by input via a hotkey (e.g., a hot key) or by searching a menu.
When an input related to a VoIP call is received, the
After being connected to the WLAN access point as described above, the
On the other hand, the
If the signal strength of the access point is smaller than the threshold, the
The signal strength of the access point being smaller than the threshold means that the communication terminal 100 has entered the weak field region of the access point, which means that the connection with the access point may be lost. Therefore, by canceling the VoIP registration in advance before the connection with the access point is lost, the connection with the access point is suddenly disconnected to prevent the status from being reflected in the VoIP server of the Internet network.
3 is a flowchart illustrating a method of managing terminal state information in a communication terminal providing a VoIP service according to another embodiment of the present invention.
In the present embodiment with reference to FIG. 3, it is assumed that WLAN access and VoIP registration are separate operations. That is, the communication terminal 100 equipped with the WLAN may use the WLAN only for VoIP calls, or use the WLAN for data communication as well as VoIP calls. In the former case, the communication terminal 100 includes only an input for a VoIP call, and in the latter case, the input for a VoIP call and an input only for a WLAN connection are distinguished from each other. 3 is a case of the latter, when the user inputs only for wireless LAN connection.
Referring to FIG. 3, the communication terminal 100 providing a VoIP service receives an input related to a WLAN connection from a user through an input means (S301). As a method of input, a menu related to a WLAN connection may be selected by inputting via a shortcut key (for example, a hot key) or searching a menu.
When an input related to a WLAN connection is received, the
After being connected to the WLAN access point as described above, the
When the connection with the access point is terminated as described above, the
In this process, the
If the neighbor access point search time has elapsed, the
Although the above-described embodiment of FIG. 3 described only WLAN access irrespective of VoIP registration, the main configuration of the embodiment of FIG. 3 refers to searching for a neighboring access point only for a predetermined time after disconnection with the WLAN access point. In order to prevent power consumption, the same applies to the case where the connection with the WLAN access point is disconnected after the WLAN connection and the VoIP registration are made as in the embodiment of FIG. 2.
4 is a flowchart illustrating a method of managing terminal state information in a communication terminal providing a VoIP service according to another embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 4, the communication terminal 100 providing a VoIP service receives an input related to a VoIP call from a user through an input means (S401). As a method of input, a menu associated with a VoIP call may be selected by input via a hotkey (e.g., a hot key) or by searching a menu.
When an input related to a VoIP call is received, the
After being connected to the WLAN access point as described above, the
According to the above procedure, the communication terminal 100 completes preparation for the VoIP call and starts the Internet call when an incoming telephone number is input from the user and the call button is pressed (S407).
On the other hand, the
If the signal strength of the access point is smaller than the threshold, the
However, when the user does not move to an area having a good WLAN environment and enters an area where the WLAN environment is worse, that is, when the signal strength of the access point is smaller than the second threshold, the
According to the present invention as described above, by accurately reflecting the VoIP call enabled state of the communication terminal 100 that provides the VoIP call function to the VoIP server of the communication network, it prevents unnecessary incoming call of the VoIP call and the accuracy of additional services such as the presence service. Increase In addition, the WLAN access point search is performed only for a certain period of time when the WLAN connection is lost, thereby reducing battery consumption and informing the user when the call quality deteriorates during the VoIP call. It can be overcome.
The method of the present invention as described above may be embodied as a program and stored in a computer-readable recording medium (such as a CD-ROM, a RAM, a ROM, a floppy disk, a hard disk, or a magneto-optical disk).
