Remote control system
First Claim
1. A remote control system for remotely controlling home-electronics information terminals by a mobile communication terminal with IC card, wherein the IC card comprises:
- a comparing means for comparing a location information received from the mobile communication terminal with residential area information and area status information stored in the IC card; and
a determining means for determining whether the mobile communication terminal moves into or out of a residential area based on the comparison result of the comparing means, wherein the mobile communication terminal comprises;
a notifying means for notifying the change of the location information such as cell ID and the changed location information to the IC card whenever the change is detected;
a commanding means for automatically sending a command to a home-electronics information terminal with wireless communication function installed in a house via a mobile communication network to set the home-electronics information terminal to a preset Going-out status when the determining means determines that the mobile communication terminal moves out of the residential area; and
a commanding means for sending a command to the home-electronics information terminal with wireless communication function via the mobile communication network to set the home-electronics information terminal to a preset Staying status when the determining means determines that the mobile communication terminal moves into the residential area.

Abstract
The remote control system utilizes a mobile communication terminals 20, the IC card 201 a the mobile communication network to remotely control home-electronics information terminals 11 to 15, 19, 40. In an automatic control mode, when it is detected that the users mobile communication terminal 20 is moved from the cell area EL where the house is to the neighboring area CR, the mobile communication terminal commands the change of the specific home-electronics information terminal to Going-out status. When it is detected that the user'"'"'s mobile communication terminal 20 is moved from the neighboring area CR to the cell area EL, the mobile communication terminal commands the change of the specific home-electronics information terminal to Staying status. In such a system, the user can deliberately issue control command in the manual mode,.

3. A remote control system for remotely controlling home-electronics information terminals by a mobile communication terminal with IC card, wherein, in an automatic mode, the mobile communication terminal sends a command to the home-electronics information terminal with wireless communication function installed in the house via the mobile communication network to set the home-electronics information terminal to a preset Staying status when the mobile communication terminal with IC card which the user carries when coming back home determines that the mobile communication terminal moves into of the residential area.
-
4. A remote control system for remotely controlling home-electronics information terminals by a mobile communication terminal with IC card, the mobile communication terminal operates in an automatic control mode and a manual control mode, wherein, in a manual control mode, the user operates the mobile communication terminal with IC card which they carry with within the house or from a remote place to consciously change the setting of the home-electronics information terminal with wireless communication function installed in a specific house.
-
5. A remote control system for remotely controlling home-electronics information terminals by a mobile communication terminal with IC card, wherein the IC card comprises:
-
a setting means for setting an identification number to designate the home-electronics information terminal to be remotely controlled and to inhibit remote control for all of the home-electronics information terminal; and
an executing means for executing a setting change when the command is received from the mobile communication terminal.
-
-
6. A remote control system for remotely controlling home-electronics information terminals comprising a mobile communication terminal with IC card,
wherein both of the home-electronics information terminal with wireless communication function installed in a house and the mobile terminal includes a subscriber identification module and can communicate each other, and wherein other security techniques would not be necessary for the remote control system by using a security system for a mobile communication network system which is based on a key producing function for an encrypted communication and an electronic signature function for identification and authentication provided by the subscriber identification module in the IC cards installed in both the mobile communication terminal and the home-electronics information terminal.
