Patent number: 7979055Abstract: When a server receives an information designating image from a communication terminal connected to a server through a network, it sends a URL identifying the storage location of the image to the communication terminal. When the communication terminal receives the URL, it loads the URL into an email and transmits the email to another communication terminal. When the communication terminal that received this email finds out that the URL integrated in the email identifies the storage location of the image, it downloads the image from the server and displays it along with the email by using the URL.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2001Date of Patent: July 12, 2011Assignee: NTT DoCoMo, Inc.Inventors: Yuko Watanabe, Madoka Tsutsumi, Hidetoshi Yazaki, Takeshi Higuchi

Patent number: 7039413Abstract: While a plurality of cellular mobile communication systems have their respective service areas regionally overlapping each other in part, a mobile station is configured to perform a standby for calling or communication while selecting one of the plural systems in the overlapping areas, and is arranged as follows: the mobile station preliminarily stores cell information notified of by a base station and indicating whether the mobile station is transferable to each surrounding cell while maintaining the current system; when the arrival of transfer timing to a surrounding cell is detected, the mobile station extracts the information about the pertinent cell and judges whether the surrounding cell is a transferable cell, based on the cell information; when the surrounding cell is a transferable cell, the mobile station transfers to the surrounding cell; when the surrounding cell is not a transferable cell, the mobile station directly transfers to a cell of a different system.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2002Date of Patent: May 2, 2006Assignee: NTT DoCoMo, Inc.Inventors: Masafumi Masuda, Akihiro Maebara, Hidetoshi Yazaki, Hiromu Niiyama, Takashi Nagano

Patent number: 6798335Abstract: Time elapsed from the time when the sensor cover is opened and power supply to the fingerprint sensor is turned from off to on is counted and when there is no fingerprint image read-in command within a specified period of time power supply to the fingerprint sensor is turned off. Even if power supply to the fingerprint sensor is turned off, when a fingerprint image read-in command executes power supply to the fingerprint sensor is turned on and read-in of a fingerprint image commences. If a fingerprint image read-in command executes when the sensor cover is closed, that command is invalidated. In such a configuration, the opening and closing of a sensor cover works in synchronicity with on/off control of power supply for a fingerprint sensor and even when the sensor cover is open, wasteful electricity consumption through power supply continuing if the fingerprint sensor is not used within a specified period of time is prevented.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2002Date of Patent: September 28, 2004Assignees: NEC Corporation, NTT DoCoMo, Inc.Inventors: Yukio Miyashita, Fukiko Maeda, Hidetoshi Yazaki

Publication number: 20030051138Abstract: A mobile terminal authentication method used for utilizing a service supplied from an information server to a mobile terminal is provided. The method authenticates the mobile terminal based on user information by which the information server identifies the mobile terminal. The method comprises an authentication step by the mobile terminal, carrying out an authentication using biometric information representing a user's biometric characteristic and read by a reading device, and previously registered user's biometric information; and a transmitting step by the mobile terminal, transmitting the user information to the information server when the biometric information read by the reading device coincides with the previously registered user's biometric information.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2002Publication date: March 13, 2003Applicant: NTT DoCoMo, Inc.Inventors: Fukiko Maeda, Hidetoshi Yazaki, Takeshi Higuchi

Patent number: 6263214Abstract: A subscriber information storing module is fixedly and internally housed within a mobile station, which is provided with an interface which permits an IC card storing subscriber information to be loaded. When a power supply is turned on, if a module is not loaded into the interface, subscriber information in the internally housed module is used to perform an activation processing for the mobile station. When an IC card is loaded into the interface, an examination is made to see if the subscriber number of the IC card and the subscriber number of the mobile station coincide, and if they coincide, the internally housed module is disabled, and subscriber information of the IC card is used.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 1998Date of Patent: July 17, 2001Assignee: NTT Mobile Communications Network Inc.Inventors: Hidetoshi Yazaki, Kouji Chiba, Hiroshi Kanto, Isao Hirakodama

Patent number: 6108541Abstract: A control channel is searched for call waiting in a mobile station where the power supply for a receiving circuit is turned off during a break time of receiving level measurements, wherein in a first control channel selection mode, all the control channels are divided into a plurality of groups, the receiving levels of the control channels are measured group by group intermittently and sequentially. The intermittent measurement of these groups are repeated until a control channel having a receiving level equal to or greater than a first predetermined value is detected. When a receiving level equal to or greater than the first predetermined value is detected, the receiving levels of all the control channels are measured in a second control channel selection mode.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 1997Date of Patent: August 22, 2000Assignee: NTT Mobile Communications Network Inc.Inventors: Hidetoshi Yazaki, Kouji Chiba, Norihito Tokuhiro, Shigehide Sawayanagi, Kazufumi Yunoki

Patent number: 6032055Abstract: When a power supply to a mobile station is turned on, mobile station identification information is read out from a non-volatile storage of a subscriber information module. A module identification information is read out from the non-volatile storage of the mobile station. The mobile station identification information which is read out is collated against the own mobile station identification information, and module identification information which is read out is collated against identification information for the loaded subscriber information module. If the module identification information does not coincide, the communication processing information is read out from the loaded subscriber information module and is stored into the non-volatile storage of the mobile station to update its content. Identification information for subscriber information module is stored into the non-volatile storage of the mobile station to update it.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 1998Date of Patent: February 29, 2000Assignee: NTT Mobile Communications Network, IncInventors: Hidetoshi Yazaki, Kouji Chiba, Isao Hirakodama, Norihito Tokuhiro
