Apparatus and Method for Auto Controlling Bell Sound in Mobile Telecommunication Terminal

본 발명은 이동통신단말기의 착신음 자동 제어 장치 및 방법에 관한 것이다. The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for automatically controlling a ringing tone of a mobile communication terminal. 종래의 이동통신단말기에서는 호 착신에 대하여 착신음을 발생하도록 설정하여 놓은 이동통신단말기를 가방이나 주머니에 넣은 상태에서 호 착신이 발생되어 착신음을 발생하는 경우, 이동통신단말기가 가방이나 주머니에 있는 동안은 방음효과에 의하여 착신음 소리가 적게 들리나, 사용자가 전화를 받기 위하여 이동통신단말기를 해당 가방이나 주머니로부터 꺼내게 되면 가방이나 주머니의 방음 효과가 사라져서 착신음 소리가 더욱 크게 울리게 되어 주위의 사람들에게 소음을 제공하는 문제점이 있다. In the conventional mobile communication terminal, when the incoming call occurs when the mobile communication terminal is set to generate a ringing tone for the incoming call in the bag or pocket, the ringing tone is generated while the mobile communication terminal is in the bag or pocket. Due to the sound insulation effect, the ring tone is less likely to be heard, but when the user removes the mobile communication terminal from the bag or pocket to answer the call, the soundproof effect of the bag or pocket disappears, and the ring tone sounds more loudly. There is a problem. 본 발명은 호 착신에 대하여 착신음을 발생하도록 설정하여 놓은 이동통신단말기를 가방이나 주머니에 넣은 상태에서 호 착신이 발생되어 착신음을 발생할때 이동통신단말기를 해당 가방이나 주머니로부터 꺼내는 경우 자동으로 이동통신단말기의 착신음을 다운 또는 오프 시키므로 착신음에 기인한 주변 소음을 감소시키게 된다. According to the present invention, when the incoming call occurs when the mobile communication terminal is set to generate a ring tone for the incoming call in the bag or pocket, when the incoming call occurs, the mobile communication terminal is automatically taken out of the bag or pocket. By reducing the ringing tone of the ringer or off, the ambient noise caused by the ringing tone is reduced.

Method of adjusting receiving sound strength automatically in mobile terminal

A method for automatically adjusting receiving sound strength in a mobile terminal is provided to mute a receiving sound of the terminal automatically or to reduce the sound in a predetermined ratio if a user and the terminal are adjacent to each other, thereby preventing the user from being startled at a sudden bell sound. A mobile terminal mounted with a camera receives a call(ST11). The mobile terminal decides on a distance between the mobile terminal and a user(ST12-ST14). The terminal compares the distance with a preset reference distance(ST15). If the distance is nearer than the reference distance, the terminal more reduces a call receiving sound than normal strength or generates vibration(ST16). In the second steps 'ST12-ST14', the distance between the terminal and the user is decided on from distance data of a subject stored by being mapped with a position of a focus lens after an auto-focusing process is performed by driving the camera.
