Therefore, in the past, it was necessary to secure a large number of personnel to produce the program, and it was not easy to secure this personnel, especially when the broadcast time extended late into the night. In addition to this, there was a problem in that the burden of personnel costs was also excessive.

An object of the present invention is to provide a broadcasting system that solves these problems and automatically performs radio music programs based on telephone requests.

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention has the following advantages:
System operating condition setting means for setting system operating conditions such as request reception time, CM broadcast time, number of top requested songs scheduled to be broadcast, presence or absence of special request time, preliminary songs, etc., and input via a push-button tone telephone connected to the telephone line. An automatic telephone answering device receives a request for a desired song using a recognition code that is set to correspond one-on-one to each preliminary song, and sends a message according to the input signal. a totalizing means for totalizing the number of received requests for desired music; a program schedule creating means for creating a chronological program schedule based on the total result by the totaling means and system operating conditions by the system operating condition setting means; Output means, such as a printer or CRT, for outputting the contents of the program guide created by the program guide creation means for visual confirmation; and a program guide execution command for executing the program guide created by the program guide creation means. means, an automatic program transmitting device that sends a signal to the program guide execution command means to advance the program, and an automatic program transmitter that stores in advance audio contents corresponding to the program guide, such as songs and messages, and executes the program guide. audio storage means for outputting audio to the main broadcasting line based on commands from the command means; audio input means for inputting audio content to the audio storage means; and audio input means for aurally confirming the execution content of the program guide. The system is equipped with a listening test means, and a storage means consisting of a RAM, a floppy disk, etc., for storing and storing various data such as program guides.

Based on the request results received by the Saku-Ichiri automatic telephone answering device, the number of requests is tallied, and a chronological program schedule is created based on the tally results and preset system operating conditions, and the system is input in advance. By sequentially selecting the audio content to be broadcast according to the created program guide and outputting it to the main broadcasting line, the music program based on the telephone request can be automatically advanced. The contents of the program guide can be printed out by an output means or displayed on a screen for visual confirmation. moreover,
A rehearsal identical to the broadcast content can be performed using listening inspection means. Furthermore, various data such as program guides, etc.
Since the information is stored and saved by the storage means, the stored contents can be recalled and checked as needed.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a schematic block diagram of the system, in which an automatic telephone answering device connected to the telephone line is predetermined using a push-button tone telephone.
For example, this reception accepts desired songs specified by 10 numbers represented by numbers 1 to 100, which are recognition codes set to correspond one-to-one to 100 songs (see Figure 2). At this time, a message corresponding to the signal received by the input/output unit 21 is selected from among the cover messages stored in advance in the storage units 2 and 3 of the automatic telephone answering device 1, and a response is sent from the input/output unit 21. It is controlled by the IIJ control section 22 to produce an output.

The ID number data of the songs accepted by the automatic telephone answering device 1 is sent to the request registration means 2 and registered, and further sent to the request aggregation means 3, where the number of quests for every 10 number data is collected 11. Ru.

Further, data other than the ID number accepted by the automatic telephone answering device 1, such as the user's telephone number, is registered in the data storage means IO.

On the other hand, the system operating condition setting means 4 sets the program broadcast time,
For example, from 11 p.m. to 1 p.m., the request reception time by the automatic telephone answering device, for example, from 1 p.m. to 10 p.m., the number of songs with the highest number of requests scheduled to be broadcast, for example, the top 20 songs,
Preliminary songs to prepare for when there are few requested songs or to fill in gaps in broadcast time, scheduled broadcast times of commercials and theme songs to be broadcast during the program, presence or absence of special request times, for example, first-come-first-served requests to broadcast the first request reception. This is used to set various conditions necessary for program broadcasting, such as the presence or absence of corners.

The program guide creation means 5 includes the system operating condition setting means 4.
The data set in step 1 and the total results from the request aggregation means 3 are called up, and based on these data, the number of songs that can be broadcast according to the broadcast time frame is determined by calculating the performance time, and the number of requests is calculated. Broadcast time is allocated from the bottom, and special request time is
If "Yes" is set, specify the broadcast time, modify the broadcast time of the commercial or theme song according to the broadcast time of the requested song, and fill in the blanks in the broadcast time. By inserting preliminary songs for the program, a chronological program guide is created from the program start time to the end time.The program guide creation means 5 creates a program guide automatically. In addition to automatically creating an outline, it is also possible to create details manually.The created program guide and various data imported into the program guide creating means 5 are processed by the program guide creating means 5. The information is printed out by a data output means 6 such as a printer or CRT connected to the computer 5, or displayed on the west side for visual confirmation (see FIG. 3).

Further, the program guide created by the program guide creating means 5 is sent to the program guide execution command means 7 and stored together with other data. When the program guide execution command means 7 receives a signal from the automatic program transmitter 8, it outputs an execution command signal to the audio storage means 9 so as to output audio in accordance with the program guide.

The program execution contents and other data are sent from the program guide execution command means 7 to a data storage means 10 such as a floppy disk and stored therein.

The audio storage means 9 stores all the audio to be broadcast, excluding commercials, such as all requested songs, preliminary songs, theme songs, various messages, etc. inputted by the audio input means 11, and IDs corresponding to each. A number is stored therein, and when the above-mentioned execution command signal is received, the corresponding sound is output to the main broadcast line.

On the other hand, regarding CM, when the CM broadcast time comes, a CM command signal is outputted from the program guide execution command means 7 to the automatic program transmitting device 8, and the automatic program transmitting device 8 that receives this CM command signal outputs a command signal. is sent to the CM output means 12, and the corresponding audio is output from the CM output means 12 to the main broadcast line.

Further, the program listening means 13 is for executing a rehearsal identical to the broadcast content, and by this program listening means 13, it is possible to aurally confirm the broadcast content according to the prepared program guide. .

FIG. 2 shows a list displaying requested songs, which is created on a weekly basis and published weekly or weekly in weekly music magazines, newspapers, etc.

By looking at this list, the user can know the desired song and its corresponding ID number.

Next, the operation of the system configured as described above will be explained.

First, initial settings are made by the system operating condition setting means 4. Various settings are possible, but in this embodiment, program broadcast time, request reception time, CM broadcast time, number of songs scheduled to be broadcast, preliminary songs (ID number) ), a first-come, first-served request corner is set.Next, the voice input means 1.1 inputs the necessary songs and messages into the voice storage means 9.

When the request reception time set by the system operating condition setting means 4 comes, the automatic telephone answering device 1 starts the reception operation. When a call signal from a user's push-button tone telephone arrives at the input/output unit 2I and the call circuit is closed, the automatic telephone answering device 1
Under the control of the section 22, the voice message previously stored in the storage section 23 is sent out from the input/output section 21 according to the determined program. The reception operation based on the control operation of the control section 22 will be explained in detail below with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

When the call circuit is closed, first it is determined whether or not it is during general request reception hours (step 101). If it is during reception hours, "Yes, 00 broadcast telephone request corner, ID number of your requested song. Please don't forget to press "#" at the bottom right at the end.'' is sent from the input/output unit 21 (step 102), and the message 1 of the song desired by the user is sent.
0 number, for example, "03" is input, the # button is pressed down, and when the input/output section 21 receives this signal sound (step 103), the process proceeds to step 104, where the input ID number is confirmed to be a regular one. Determine whether or not. Then, if it is legitimate, the input/output unit 21 will display the message "Your requested song is '03.' If it is correct, press the confirmation buttons 'O' and '#' in order. 0 If it is incorrect, , "*" and "#" to clear the input once, and then send a confirmation message asking you to input the ID number of the quest song again (step 105).

Here, when the user inputs a confirmation signal sound (Step 106), the ID number that has already been input is sent to the request registration means 2 (Step 107). The ID number is added to the number of existing requests with the same ID number as the incoming ID number, and then registered. On the other hand, the control unit 22 of the automatic telephone answering device W1 calls the registered number of requests in step 108.
), the input/output unit 21 will display “Your requested song has been registered.Currently, the number of votes for this song is ×X votes,'#
” and wait for the program to air.

We look forward to receiving your next request.'' ↓1 sends a registration completion message (step 1゜9).

On the other hand, if the user inputs a clear signal tone in step 106, the process returns to step 103 and the same operations as described above are repeated.

In addition, the I inputted by the user in step 104
If the D number is a non-existent number, such as 123'', the input/output unit 21 will notify you that ``There is no song corresponding to the ID number you input.''
”Press #1 in order to clear the input once, then -
Step 11: Please re-enter the ID number of the quest song.
0), the process returns to step 103 and the same operations as described above are repeated.

When the registration of the ID number in the request registration means 2 is completed, the process proceeds to step 111, and the input/output section 21 sends "
There is also a chance to win a prime number gift through a lottery. If you would like to win, please enter your phone number correctly starting from the area code and press "#" at the end. If you do not wish to register your phone number. Please press only "#".

” will be sent as a phone number registration message. and,
When the telephone number signal is input (step 112), the process proceeds to step 113 and the received telephone number signal is output to the request registration means 2. Subsequently, upon receiving the signal sound of the # button (step 114), the input/output unit 21 sends out a termination message saying "Thank you for your request" and ends the reception operation (step 115).

After the general request acceptance time has ended, a call signal from the user arrives at the input/output unit 21 and a call circuit is formed, and the process proceeds from step 101 to step 116.
From the input/output unit 21, "Request reception for today has ended.Reception hours are from 1:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m."
I look forward to your next Nori Quest, thank you very much. ” is sent as a reception time end message.

In this way, the number of additions for each ID number registered in the request registration means 2 is sent to the request aggregation means 3 after the request reception time ends and is totaled, and corresponds to the number of top songs scheduled to be broadcast that have been preliminarily set. Each ID number is selected, and the program guide creation means 5
is sent as data. On the other hand, the registered user's telephone number data is sent to the data storage means 10 and stored therein.

The program schedule creation means 5 creates a time series with specified broadcast times and broadcast contents based on the aggregated data sent from the above-mentioned request aggregation means 3 and various data set in advance by the system operating condition setting means 4. A program guide is created.

The created program guide is printed out by the data output means 6 (see FIG. 3), and is also sent to the program guide execution command means 7. The program guide execution command means 7 is automatically set to the on-air mode several seconds before the program start time, and is in a standby state waiting for a start signal from the automatic program sending bag W8.

When the start signal is sent from the automatic program transmitting device 8 at the broadcast start time, the program guide execution command means 7 instructs the audio storage means 9 to start broadcasting, and the program guide is started according to the created program guide. The audio is sequentially outputted from the audio storage means 9 to the broadcast main line.

Furthermore, when the time for a CM is reached according to the program guide, the program guide execution command means 7 outputs a program interruption signal to the automatic program sending device 8, while the -audio storage means 9 stores empty material at the same time as the CM broadcast time. command execution. As a result, the automatic program transmitter 8 issues a command signal to the CM output means I2 to perform 0M output to the main broadcast line, and during this time the audio storage means 9 stops outputting audio to the main broadcast line. When the 0M output to the main broadcasting line is completed, the automatic program sending device 8 outputs a program restart signal to the program guide execution command means 7, and the program guide execution command means 7 inputs the program guide into the audio storage means 9. The program progresses by instructing the output of the recorded audio.

Also, when it comes time for the first-come, first-served request corner,
In response to the command from the program schedule execution command means 7, a message is sent from the voice storage means 9 saying, "It's time for the lucky request chance, first come, first served corner. We'll be accepting requests now, so please call us. Chance time has started!" Output. Thereafter, the input/output section 21 of the automatic telephone answering device 1 and the user with whom the communication circuit was first established are controlled to be connected to the input/output section 21 of the automatic telephone answering device 1 by the same control operation as in the reception operation of the general request described above. Various messages are sent. First of all, congratulations, you got a lucky request chance. Please input the ID number of your favorite song correctly and press "#" at the end.'' is sent from the input/output unit 21. Subsequently, when a regular signal tone is input in the same way as in the case of the general request described above, the control section 22 of the automatic telephone answering device 1 sends the input ID number to the request registration means 2. Then, the request registration means 2 registers the sent ID number, and the program guide creation means 5
The program guide creation means 5 determines whether the ID number is set as a song to be broadcast in creating the program guide, and transmits the determination result to the data storage means 10 and the request registration. 1 via means 2
) 11. Send to the control unit 22 of the automatic telephone answering device 1.

Here, if the ID number is not set in the program guide, the input/output section 21 of the automatic telephone answering bag fE1 will display "Your request has been registered."

I'll be calling soon, so please listen to the broadcast and wait. I'll send you a message. On the other hand, the program guide execution command means 7 issues a command to the audio storage means 9 to broadcast the music corresponding to the ID number. On the other hand, if the ID number input by the user is set as a song to be broadcast when creating a program guide, the control section 22 of the automatic telephone answering device 1 receives a message from the program guide execution command means 7. Based on the signal, "Your requested song was broadcast on today's number," if it is already broadcast.
Please request another song.'' is sent from the human output unit 21, and if the song will be broadcast from now on, the message ``Your requested song has not been set as the song to be broadcast today.Please request another song.'' The human output unit 21 sends out a message saying "Please do so."

In addition, for users other than those for whom the call circuit was initially closed, the input/output unit 21 of the automatic telephone answering device 1 will send a message saying, ``This lucky request has ended.''

Look forward to your next request. The next lucky request is scheduled for around x o'clock x minutes. ” message is sent.

In this way, when all the broadcasts according to the program guide are finished, the program guide execution command means 7 outputs a program end signal to the automatic program transmitting device 8 to end the on-air broadcast.

As is clear from the above explanation, according to the present invention, a series of operations from receiving a call to broadcasting can be performed automatically, so there is no need for a large number of personnel. This has the effect that the requested program can be broadcast without being subject to broadcast time constraints.
