  A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. The present embodiment is applied to a portable telephone (including an in-vehicle telephone) with a built-in Bluetooth function capable of wireless hands-free calling, but can also be applied to a wired or wireless fixed telephone. In this embodiment, when an incoming call is received from a registered caller, the user is allowed to receive automatically without performing a receiving operation, and the voice of the caller can be reported. As shown in FIG. 1, the feature of this telephone is that an automatic reception switch unit 19 is added to the conventional machine (see FIG. 3), so that when an incoming call is received from a registered caller, the automatic reception state is switched. The point is that automatic calling is possible.

  The telephone 10 is registered in advance with a radio unit 12 to which an antenna 11 is connected and caller identification information data corresponding to caller data (for example, a telephone number; hereinafter referred to as calling number information data) transmitted together with a calling signal. Memory unit 13 stored, ADPCM decoding unit 14 that generates an audio signal based on various audio information data, a speaker 15 that reports the audio signal as a notification audio, and a display that displays the operating state of the telephone 10 and the like Unit 16, a key input unit 17 that is input by the user, an automatic reception switch unit 19 that is in a reception state when the received calling number information data matches registered caller identification information data, and a CPU And a control unit 18 for controlling the operation of each unit.

  The antenna 11 transmits and receives radio waves from the telephone communication network. A radio unit 12 is connected to the antenna 11, and the radio unit 12 modulates a radio wave or demodulates it to a transmission radio wave. The wireless unit 12 is followed by the control unit 18, and the control unit 18 is connected with a memory unit 13, an ADPCM decoding unit 14, a speaker 15, a display unit 16, a key input unit 17, and an automatic reception switch unit 19, respectively. The operation of each unit is controlled by the CPU of the control unit 18.

  In the present embodiment, the control unit 18 includes a communication processing unit capable of wireless communication with the hands-free headset, a signal processing unit that converts voice data input from a user into a call off mode command signal, and the outgoing call when a call is received. It also functions as a determination processing unit that determines whether or not the sender data matches the registered sender identification information data. Accordingly, the telephone 10 can make a wireless call through the hands-free headset, and can switch the call after automatic reception to the off mode according to the user's voice command.

  The memory unit 13 stores programs and variable data necessary for the operation of the telephone 10. The memory unit 13 stores and stores caller identification information data in advance in association with the calling number information data. The telephone number, which is the calling number information data, is transmitted from the base station together with the calling signal when a telephone call is received.

  The ADPCM decoding unit 14 generates an audio signal based on various audio information data by a known time domain encoding method. This sound signal is reproduced as a notification sound from the speaker 15 through an amplification unit as appropriate. The display unit 16 displays the operation state of the telephone 10, various messages, received information, and the like on the screen.

  The key input unit 17 includes a start key used at the time of outgoing / incoming response, a registration key and a general operation key used when registering a telephone number desired by the user in the memory unit 13. Further, user operation input data performed via the key input unit 17 controls the operation of each unit of the telephone 10 according to a predetermined program by the CPU of the control unit 18.

  The automatic reception switch unit 19 switches to an automatic reception state in response to a command signal from the control unit 18 when an incoming call is received from a caller who is registered for automatic reception, and after the automatic reception, the voice emitted from the caller is A sound is reported directly from the speaker 15.

  An operation example after an incoming call by the telephone 10 will be described. FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing operation control after an incoming call. First, when the standby telephone 10 receives an incoming signal from the telephone communication network (S1), the CPU of the control unit 18 extracts calling number information data (telephone number) included in the incoming signal and stores it in the memory unit 13. It is compared with the registered caller identification information data, and it is determined whether there is a match (corresponding) (S2).

  As a result, if there is no match, the process proceeds to step S6. On the other hand, if there is a match, the process proceeds to step S3. In step S3, it is determined whether or not automatic reception by the automatic reception switch unit 19 is permitted. As a result, if it is not permitted (a setting state in which the automatic reception switch unit 19 cannot be operated), the process proceeds to step S6. On the other hand, if permitted (a setting state in which the automatic reception switch unit 19 is operable), the process proceeds to step S4.

  In step S4, the automatic reception switch unit 19 is automatically set to the automatic reception state. When the caller utters voice, the voice is reported from the speaker 15. Thereby, the receiver can start a call with the caller without receiving operation (S5).

  On the other hand, if NO is determined in step S2 or step S3 described above, the process proceeds to step S6. In step S6, the CPU of the control unit 18 causes the speaker 15 to ring a prescribed ringtone. As a result, the receiver can recognize that he / she is in an incoming call state, and can start a call with the caller by a normal reception operation (S7).

  In the present embodiment, information data of a caller permitted to receive automatically is registered in the memory unit 13 in advance, and when there is an incoming call from the caller, the caller's incoming data and the memory registration data are collated. If the two data match, the automatic reception switch unit 19 switches to the reception state, and the caller's voice is reported through the speaker 15.

  In the conventional telephone, the caller cannot be specified by the incoming melody or the like at the time of the incoming call. However, in the telephone 10 of this embodiment, the voice of the caller is directly called by the receiver. Can be identified and specified.

  In addition, the receiver can avoid undesired caller sounds and calls by registering in advance the information data of the sender that can be automatically received in the memory unit 13. That is, the recipient can talk only with the desired caller.

  Since the telephone 10 of the present embodiment can make a call via a hands-free headset, the receiving side can perform hands-free reception and two-way communication. Therefore, for example, in the case of an in-vehicle phone, even if the receiver receives an incoming call while driving, the receiver can concentrate on safe driving while holding the handle.

  Further, the receiver can switch the call after the automatic reception to the off mode by a voice command. In other words, the receiver can easily end the call without a manual operation when speaking of a voice command, for example, “disconnect”.

  Furthermore, as the sender information permitted to be automatically received, in the present embodiment, data of a specific sender for contacting emergency information such as at the time of a large-scale disaster is registered in the memory unit 13. Therefore, when there is an incoming call from a specific caller, emergency information is automatically notified to the user from the speaker 15 by automatic reception, so that the user can respond immediately when an emergency occurs.

  The present invention can be variously modified without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and the present invention naturally extends to the modified one. For example, the present invention can be applied to a telephone that can transmit an image and the like together with sound.
