Abstract: The present invention is directed to an MB-MM mobile communication terminal. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an MB-MM mobile communication terminal comprising a first modem and a second modem, further comprises an activation control unit determining whether the second modem is activated if the activation control unit receives an activation order from the first modem for activating the second modem. The activation control unit authorizes the power to the second modem only if the second modem is not activated. The present invention can provide an MB-MM mobile communication terminal that is able to prevent an equipped modem from being read as activated although the equipped modem is actually not activated and a method for controlling the modem power of the MB-MM mobile communication terminal.

Abstract: An apparatus for overlaying images includes a broadcast image layer generator, an application image layer generator, and an overlay processor. The broadcast image layer generator generates a broadcast image layer based on a received broadcast signal. The application image layer generator generates an application image layer based on an application image. The overlay processor generates an overlay image obtained by overlaying the broadcast image layer with the application image layer, so that a broadcast image corresponding to the broadcast image layer and an application image corresponding to the application image layer may be displayed simultaneously on a screen. The broadcast image and the application image may be displayed simultaneously on a screen, and visibility and readability of a text in the application image may be enhanced based on the user's preference and the user's recognition ability when the portable device performs multi-tasking in which multiple programs are simultaneously executed.

Abstract: A method of displaying a caller information in a portable device includes setting up an item of the caller information of each caller, and displaying the caller information based on the set item of the caller information of a caller corresponding to a phone number of the caller when the portable device receives an incoming call. Accordingly, caller information desired by the user of the portable device may be displayed, and thus various and personalized caller information may be displayed.

Abstract: A portable terminal, comprising a main body having a plurality of keys, a folder having a protrusion on the outer surface thereof, a first hinge part which connects the main body and the folder having a first hinge axis, and a second hinge part which connects to the first hinge part having a second hinge axis perpendicular to the first hinge axis, wherein the protrusion is formed to correspond to at least one of the keys when the main body and the folder are superposed with the inner surface of the folder exposed to the exterior, is convenient to use and carry, as the user may rotate the folder by a predetermined angle and use the keys attached to the main body.

Abstract: A slide type mobile terminal according to an aspect of the invention comprises: a main body having buttons and a slide part having a display, wherein the buttons comprise at least one open button that is open to the exterior and at least one hidden button that is not open to the exterior when the slide part is opened with respect to the main body, the slide part comprises at least one push protrusion corresponding with at least the hidden button, and the main body and the slide part are joined by a connection means which allows sliding of the slide part with respect to the main body. With such a composition, the invention allows for a larger display on the slide part and provides a slide type mobile terminal which can have various functional buttons.

Abstract: An MB-MM mobile communication terminal having multiple multimedia functions is disclosed. In one embodiment, the MB-MM mobile terminal includes a first modem having a first codec unit, and a second modem having a second codec unit. The first modem controls the first codec unit to process data and outputs a data processing order to have the second codec unit process data if the first codec unit is processing other data. The second modem activates the second codec unit if the data processing order is inputted and controls the second codec unit to process data corresponding to the data processing order. At least one of embodiment of the present invention enables using multiple codec units simultaneously or independently in an MB-MM mobile communication terminal.

Abstract: Provided is a broadband internal antenna including a ground plate and an antenna unit. The antenna unit can include a feed point; a first radiator, formed with a bar shape having the feed point as one end part and the other end part from which an uncurved ‘C’ shape is extended; a ground point, connected to the ground plate; a second radiator, having one end part on which the ground point is mounted and the other end part that is connected to an area from which the uncurved ‘C’ shape of the first radiator starts to be formed in an open loop form; a first protrusion part, protruded from the uncurved ‘C’ shape of the first radiator to be formed in a closed loop form; and a second protrusion part, formed inside the open loop shape of the first radiator in an inverse L’ form.
