Definitions

  • An electronic phone book is now standard equipment in mobile phones.
  • the user can save a phone number together with a text (usually a name), and if necessary search and dial the number again.
  • a non-volatile memory e.g. SIM fixdialing Phonebook ⁇ FD 'or ME Phonebook ⁇ ME'
  • SIM fixdialing Phonebook ⁇ FD 'or ME Phonebook ⁇ ME' is provided, which is on the SIM card (SIM, "FDN", "SM" or in the terminal (ME, " ME ”.
  • SIM SIM, "FDN", "SM”
  • ME ME
  • the structure of this telephone book can be taken from the GSM 11.11 standard. Names and numbers are entered via the keyboard using the existing display device and are stored in one of these memories in any order.
  • the entries In order to be able to search in this phone book with reasonable effort, the entries must be sorted before use. This happens again each time the mobile phone is switched on, the sorted phone book is stored updated in a volatile memory.
  • the type of storage and the search algorithm used depend on the manufacturer.
  • the mobile phone does not have to be used directly via its operating device (keyboard and display) but can be used via an external, e.g. serial interface (DDI) or an infrared interface.
  • DPI serial interface
  • an infrared interface e.g., infrared interface
  • AT + CPBS ⁇ storage>: Select Phonebook Memory Storage:
  • AT + CPBF ⁇ findtext>: Find Phonebook Entries Display of the phone book entries in which the alphanumeric field with the line ⁇ fmdtext> begins with the index, the telephone number and possibly additional texts. This command outputs the searched entries, but in the order in which they are in the physical memory and therefore in unsorted form. Access is also very slow here.
  • the object of the invention is to make it easier for the user to use the telephone book stored on a mobile phone.
  • This object is achieved by specifying a method according to claim 1, through which access to a sorted telephone book stored in the mobile phone (ME) or on the card (SIM) via the external interface
  • the inventive procedure avoids the disadvantages described in the introduction when accessing the sorted telephone book in a mobile phone.
  • the mobile phone can contain several phone books on non-volatile memories, e.g. B. one on the SIM card and one in the terminal itself. If these different phone books are merged into a volatile memory when sorting, it is no longer necessary for the user to specify the phone book to be searched.
  • By specifying more than one alphanumeric character as a search criterion the search is made easier, especially in a telephone book with many entries.
  • the same positive effect is achieved by outputting more than one result on the external control device. It makes sense to include the entries following or previous to the sort order, as this speeds up the search. However, this is only possible with great effort if there is no access to an already sorted database.
  • the display device of the external control unit makes sense to selectively design the number of entries to be output and the lines to be displayed.
  • one is flexible and can choose, for example, the car radio (1 line) or a separate display device, for example on the steering wheel of a vehicle (3 or more lines).
  • FIG. 1 shows an arrangement of the mobile telephone (ME) with existing telephone books ("ME”, “LD”, “FD”) and a volatile memory RAM, on which sorted telephone books are available after the cell phone is switched on. Via a serial interface (DDI) accesses an external application (TE)
  • Figure 2 shows a flow chart of a query from an external application (TE) to the sorted telephone book in the mobile phone (ME).
  • FIG. 1 shows a structure of a mobile telephone (ME) and an external unit (TE, Terminal Equipment) connected via an interface (DDI).
  • the mobile phone need not contain any display or input devices if the device can be operated from an external unit.
  • LD, FD SIM card
  • An application on the external unit now has the option of searching for data in this second sorted database and having it output.
  • the content of the sorted telephone book consists of at least one of the unsorted telephone books, which were merged by Merge and Sort.
  • Access is made when searching for an entry in 2 steps.
  • commands with the following command syntax can be used to execute access to the sorted telephone book:
  • the phone book to be used is specified. Then a search request is carried out.
  • AT + CPBC ? outputs a list of all supported sorted telephone bookers
  • AT + CPBC ⁇ char> looks for the first entry in the sorted telephone book that begins with ⁇ char>, where ⁇ char> is from "A” ... "Z”.
  • ⁇ mdex> is the index in the sorted phone book ⁇ char> can be replaced by ⁇ strmg>, i.e. a sequence of n times ⁇ char>, which results in a search for the first n first letters.
  • CPBG ⁇ mdexl> [, ⁇ ndex2>] where ⁇ mdexl> and ⁇ ndex2> are location numbers between which you want to read.
  • the main advantage of this procedure is that, if necessary, only the data that is required by the application is loaded via the serial interface. Therefore, the memory required in the external device TE can be kept significantly smaller. Furthermore, no sorting process is required in the external device, since the pre-sorted telephone book, which is present in the mobile phone anyway, can be accessed, which also saves resources and time. However, a certain part or the entire phone book can be read out in a sorted order without having to search for ⁇ char> beforehand.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates in a flow chart how the sorted telephone book is accessed via the remote control interface.
  • the end device consists of a mobile equipment (ME), which also contains the database containing the sorted telephone book, and the external application or user interface (TE, terminal equipment).
  • ME mobile equipment
  • TE external application or user interface
