METHOOD FOR PROVIDING UNIFIED SEARCH SERVICE OF A PLURALITY OF INFORMATION PROVIDER SERVER VIA MOBILE INTERNET}

The present invention relates to a method for providing an integrated search service, and more particularly, to a method for providing an integrated search service for a plurality of information provider servers through a mobile Internet to a mobile terminal.

Wireless internet refers to accessing the Internet using wireless communication technology rather than through wires such as telephone lines or leased lines (LAN, WAN, etc.). Wireless Internet service is capable of searching various information and e-commerce by accessing the Internet through mobile terminal. It is characterized by overcoming the space limitations of the existing wired Internet environment.

Since wireless communication technology has been mainly used to transmit and receive voice data using mobile phones in the early days, it was completely separate from the Internet used by wire.However, with the advent of wireless data, the Internet and wireless communication are gradually converged and developed into wireless Internet. This is accelerating, making it one of the most important business areas of the IT industry.

The wireless Internet we are using now is divided into two types: web (WEB) and WAP. Web-based is a wireless Internet that uses the Microsoft's browser and the Windows operating system is applied to the same environment as a computer, so there is no inconvenience in accessing and moving to the site. Recently, the high speed Wibro business was promoted to disseminate such web-based wireless Internet, but it is not practical because it is not suitable for the reality of Korea's wireless communication market, where more than 97% of mobile phones are currently based on swap.

As mentioned above, most of the wireless Internet, that is, the mobile Internet, currently used as a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone in Korea, is mostly based on a swap. WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) is a protocol that can efficiently transmit data in a wireless communication environment between a mobile terminal and a base station, and can be used in various wireless environments (regardless of the type of the wireless network or the mobile terminal 10). It can be operated in GSM, TDMA, CDMA, CDPD) and solves the speed problem by converting HTML to WML and transmitting. In addition, there is an advantage that can add the function without changing the size of the terminal to the standard that prioritizes the production of the mobile phone.

However, there is a problem that the information retrieval and site movement are very inconvenient because the web browser based on the Microsoft Internet (MS) provided by the web-based cannot be used in the mobile internet based on the swap. This problem is a major cause of inhibiting the activation of the mobile Internet, along with limitations of the mobile terminal, that is, small network bandwidth, slow CPU speed, small memory, and limited input devices.

The purpose of this document is to provide a method for providing an integrated search service for a plurality of information provider servers through a mobile Internet to a mobile terminal.

As one embodiment of the present invention for solving the above problems, a method for providing an integrated search service through the mobile Internet to a mobile terminal, recognizes the connection from the mobile terminal and the integrated search window 30 to the mobile terminal; Providing a first phone page including a; receiving a search keyword input through the integrated search window 30 from the mobile terminal; requesting a search result for the search keyword from a first information provider server; Receiving a search result for the search keyword from the first information provider server, a first tab 31a for selecting the first information provider server, and a second tab 31b for selecting a second information provider server; And a second phone page including the search result 32a for the search keyword provided by the first information provider server to the mobile terminal. Providing a step.

When receiving the information for selecting the second information provider server from the mobile terminal through the second tap 31b, the method may include: the first tap 31a and the second tap 31b to the mobile terminal. And providing a third phone page including a search result 32b for the search keyword provided by the second information provider server.

One or more of the first phone page, the second phone page, and the third phone page may further include a toolbar 33 that provides one or more service functions.

The first phone page may further include the first tab 31a and the second tab 31b. In this case, the first tap page of the first phone page in the step of receiving the search keyword ( Information for selecting the first information provider server may be further received through 31a).

According to the present invention, an integrated search service for a plurality of information provider servers can be provided to a user of a mobile terminal through a mobile Internet.

According to the present invention, the user of the mobile terminal can easily check the search results provided by the plurality of information provider servers.

In addition, the user of the mobile terminal does not move to the preview page or move to a higher level during the integrated search according to the present invention, and is provided by another information provider server directly on the phone page where the search results provided by the specific information provider server are displayed. The effect is that you can request a search result.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention for a method of providing an integrated search service for a plurality of information provider servers through a mobile Internet to a mobile terminal will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is an exemplary configuration diagram of a wireless Internet system capable of providing an integrated search service for a plurality of information provider servers through a mobile Internet to a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, the wireless Internet system basically includes a mobile terminal 10, a base station 11, an operator server 12, a first information provider server 13, a second information provider server 14, and an internet network. It consists of 16 pieces.

The mobile terminal 10 may be connected to a mobile communication company server or various information provider servers through a wireless Internet by transmitting a signal to a base station 11 of a corresponding region, and to the base station 11, various servers, and the mobile terminal 10. Multiple servers working together to provide information may be connected via a wired Internet network 16. For example, the wireless Internet is a wireless Internet based on the WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) protocol, and the wired Internet connecting a base station and a plurality of servers may be a general Internet network using the TCP / IP protocol.

The mobile terminal 10 is capable of transmitting and receiving text, image, video, and audio data through wireless communication using a swap protocol, and a cellular phone and a WAP phone, commonly referred to as a mobile phone, belong to this.

The information provider server is operated by an individual or a business operator who wants to provide content through the wireless Internet. When the mobile terminal 10 accesses, the information provider server transmits a phone page including its content. The information provider server may include a portal company or an online company that provides various commercial contents such as search, shopping, booking, broadcasting, news, entertainment, music, movies, chat, games, or learning.

The operator server 12 according to the present embodiment allows the mobile terminal 10 to easily access the information provider server to search for and use information required by the mobile terminal 10. In particular, when the mobile terminal 10 connects to the operator server 12, the operator server 12 according to the present embodiment searches through a plurality of information provider servers for a desired search keyword through a swap-based wireless Internet. Can provide services.

In this case, the mobile terminal 10 may be connected to the operator server 12 through the mobile telecommunication company server 15, or may be directly connected to the operator server 12 through the wireless Internet. Various methods may be used for the method in which the mobile terminal 10 directly accesses the operator server 12 through the wireless Internet.

For example, the mobile terminal 10 receives a wireless Internet number that can be directly connected to the operator server 12, enters the wireless Internet number of the operator server 12 in the mobile terminal 10, and enters the wireless Internet connection key, which is directly provided by the operator server. The phone page can be sent immediately.

For another example, a hotkey HK may be provided on the keypad of the mobile terminal 10. In this case, the user of the mobile terminal 10 presses the hot key (HK) instead of the shortcut key to the phone page provided by the existing mobile communication provider at the start of the wireless Internet, thereby providing the phone page provided by the operator server 12. Can be sent immediately.

In addition, a separate icon for accessing the operator server 12 is provided on a menu provided by the mobile terminal 10, a phone page of the operator server 12 can be downloaded directly, or an operator server (as an SMS message) 12) can be saved by sending a URL address to connect to.

Hereinafter, communication between the mobile terminal 10 and the operator server 12 will be described. However, as described above, communication is performed through the base station 11, and the mobile communication company server 15 may also intervene. . Incidentally, in the above and the following descriptions, the phone page represents an Internet site viewed on the mobile terminal.

2 is a diagram illustrating a phone page capable of providing integrated search services for a plurality of information provider servers through a mobile Internet to a mobile terminal through a preview page.

In order to provide an integrated search service for multiple information provider servers, a preview page provided by a specific server may be used. When the search button is entered after entering a search keyword, for example, "Samsung" through the search box provided in the main page shown in FIG. 2A, the preview page shown in FIG. 2B is provided. . This preview page provides one or more examples of search results that each of a plurality of information provider servers, such as the first information provider server 13 and the second information provider server 14, can provide for that search keyword. It is configured to.

After selecting a desired information provider server or a search result provided by the information provider server in the preview page, the user may receive a phone page provided by the information provider server. For example, in case of selecting DAUM, the next server receives a phone page including a search result for "Samsung", as shown in FIG. 2C.

In the case of a federated search using such a preview page, moving from the first information provider server 13, for example, the phone page provided below, to the second information provider server 14, for example, the phone page provided by Yahoo! To do this, the user must go back to the preview page and select another information provider server, for example Yahoo. If the user selects Yahoo but not through this preview page, the Yahoo server will be provided with a phone page containing the search results for "Samsung", as shown in Figure 2 (e). .

That is, in the case of the integrated search using the preview page, in order to check the search results provided by the other information provider server, the user may go back to the preview page shown in FIG. There is a hassle to reconnect to the preview page. If a user moves from a phone page provided by a specific information provider server to a plurality of sub-pages, the trouble of moving to the preview page will be increased.

In addition, since mobile internet users have to pay for such communication during such a large number of page movements, this type of federated search is difficult to be actively used by the user, and a step is added for the federated search. Rather, it can be a factor limiting the user's activation of the mobile Internet.

In particular, in the swap-based mobile Internet, it is very inconvenient for information retrieval and site movement because Microsoft's Internet browser provided by the web cannot be used. Therefore, in the case of using the integrated search method that requires a plurality of page movements in the swap-based mobile Internet, the inconvenience or inconvenience that the user feels will be a bigger problem. This may obscure the purpose of integrated search to provide the user with ease of search.

Therefore, in the embodiments of the present invention described below, while the user searches through the phone page provided by the specific information provider server using the mobile terminal 10, the other information provider server does not go through the preview page. It provides a way to search through the provided phone page.
