Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[Technical Field] The present invention relates to a radio paging device used in a radio paging system. [Prior art] Previously, in Japan, "Pocketbell" (registered trademark)
Most radio paging receivers, popularly known as ``-'' and ``?'', only emitted a ringing sound when receiving a call, but with advances in technology, they now have numbers and alphanumeric characters (``-'', ``?''). ”, “:”, etc.) are now available. When sending display information consisting only of numbers to a receiver, a push-button telephone, known in Japan as a "pussy phone", can be easily used as an information input device. However, when this push-button telephone is used as an information input device for transmitting display information including alphanumeric characters, etc., the operation becomes extremely troublesome. Tables 1 and 2 show conventionally proposed information input methods when using a push-button telephone.

[Purpose of the invention]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a radio paging device that simplifies the paging operation by providing submessages for each receiver. [Structure of the Invention] The present invention is characterized in that a predetermined sub-message group constituting a message to be sent to each cold receiver is written and registered in advance in a predetermined area of a memory, and when the receiver is called. In this system, a sub-message number is input following the receiver number, and the sub-messages are sequentially read out from the memory, converted into radio signals, and transmitted to the receiver. The wireless paging device of the present invention is connected to two telephone lines and transmits a PB from a push-button telephone.
It has the function of receiving signals, and includes a conversion table that converts the combination of PB signals corresponding to □* or □# button signals and signals corresponding to numeric buttons into predetermined alphanumeric characters, and a conversion table that is sent to each receiver. A memory in which sub-messages constituting a message are stored in a predetermined area corresponding to the receiver number and the sub-message number;
a first address determination circuit that decodes the PB signal of the receiver number and the sub-message number to determine the address of the memory; a sub-message writing circuit that converts the text into an alphanumeric character string and writes it to the area of the address determined by the first address determination circuit of the memory; and a receiver number inputted from the second system. a second address determination circuit that decodes the PB signal of the sub-message and determines the address of the memory; and a sub-message whose address is determined by the second address determination circuit of the memory is sequentially read out and transmitted wirelessly. a sub-message reading/signal conversion circuit that converts the message into a system signal;
It is characterized by comprising a transmitting device that transmits the output of the signal conversion circuit to the receiver. [Example] Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a radio paging device according to an embodiment of the present invention. This wireless paging device consists of PB signal receivers 1 and 2 that are connected to two telephone lines and receive PB signals sent from push-button telephones, and
Or □ Conversion table (Table-1) 3 for converting the combination of signals corresponding to the # button and signals corresponding to the numeric buttons into predetermined alphanumeric characters, and a sub-message (e.g. In Table 2, 10 sub-messages per receiver in this embodiment) are stored in the memory 4 and the predetermined area corresponding to the receiver number and the sub-message number. The receiver number and sub-message number input from system 1.
An address determining circuit 5 decodes the PB signal and determines the address of the memory 4, converts the message PB signal input from the first system into an alphanumeric character string using the conversion table, and stores this in the memory. A sub-message writing circuit 6 writes to the address area determined by the first address determining circuit 5 of 4, and decodes the receiver number and sub-message PB signal input from the second system. An address determination circuit 7 that determines the address of the memory 4, and a submessage reading/signal conversion circuit 8 that sequentially reads the submessages at the addresses determined by the address determination circuit 7 of the memory 4 and converts them into wireless signals. and a transmitting device (transmitter 9 and antenna 10) for transmitting the output of the message reading/signal converting circuit 8 to the receiver. Next, the operation of this radio paging device will be explained. (1) Registration of sub-message The subscriber calls the PB signal receiver 1 using a push-button telephone in advance and enters the receiver number, the sub-message number to be sent to the receiver, and the sub-message (□* button). (number button combination).
The PB signal of the receiver number and submessage number is decoded by the address determining circuit 5, and the address of the memory 4 is determined. On the other hand, the sub-message is converted into an alphanumeric character string by the sub-message writing circuit 6 using the conversion table 3, and written into the area of the address determined by the address determining circuit 5 of the memory 4. This operation is repeated for all desired receivers, and registration of the predetermined sub-messages is completed for each of the 10 receivers. After this, perform an operation to indicate completion, for example, press the □* button or hang up the call. (2) Calling a receiver Next, if you want to call a receiver that is a subscriber, call the PB signal receiver 2 with a push-button telephone, and then enter the receiver's number of the receiver. , followed by the submessage number. The PB signal of the receiver number and the sub-message number is decoded by the address determination circuit 7 to determine the address of the memory 4, and the sub-messages at the address are sequentially read out by the sub-message reading/signal conversion circuit 8 and sent to the wireless system. is converted into a signal of transmitter 9, antenna 10
The message is then sent to the corresponding command receiver. Here, the receiver with the receiver number 123 stored in the memory 4 is sent a sub-message, for example, as a table.
3. When a call is made to the PB signal receiver 2 from a push-button telephone and the push button is pressed as shown in FIG. 2, the message shown in FIG. 2 is transmitted and displayed on the receiver.

〔Effect of the invention〕

By using the wireless paging device of the present invention, telephone subscribers do not have to perform troublesome input operations using a conversion table at the time of registering the first sub-message.
You only need to input it once, and if you register submessages that you often use, you can use them repeatedly when making subsequent calls. You can also change registered sub-messages whenever you like.
