Abstract

In communication terminals 1-1, 1-2, whenever data is received by any one of a mobile communication section 10-1, a wireless LAN communication section 10-2, or an infrared communication section 10-3, the received data type, communication method, time of receipt, communication partner, attachment data type and the time within the received data are detected as the reception result. Next, a central control section 10-10 identifies transmit data from the reception results based on an identification condition stored in an identification condition storage section 10-9-5. Subsequently, the identified transmit data is transmitted to the communication partner who originally transmitted the received data by the communication method used for receiving the transmit data identified.

Claims

1. A communication terminal comprising:

a reception means for receiving data transmitted from a communication partner;

a detection means for detecting a reception result generated by the reception means;

an identification means for identifying transmit data from among data previously stored based on the reception result detected by the detection means; and

a transmission means for transmitting the transmit data identified by the identification means to the communication partner received by the reception means.

2. The communication terminal according to claim 1, further comprising:

a display means for displaying confirmation information to confirm whether or not to transmit the transmit data identified by the identification means; and

an instruction means for directing transmission of the transmit data based on the confirmation information displayed by the display means;

wherein the transmission means, whenever transmission is directed by the instruction means, transmits the transmit data.

3. The communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein the detection means detects the received data type as the reception result;

and

wherein the identification means identifies the transmit data based on the data type detected by the detection means.

4. The communication terminal according to claim 1, further comprising:

a plurality of reception means; and

wherein the detection means detects the reception means used for data reception from among the plurality of reception means as the reception result; and

wherein the identification means identifies the transmit data based on the reception means detected by the detection means from among the plurality of reception means.

5. The communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein the detection means detects time of receipt information of the received data as the reception result;

and

wherein the identification means identifies the transmit data based on the time of receipt information of the received data detected by the detection means.

6. The communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein the detection means detects the communication partner of the received data as the reception result;

and

wherein the identification means identifies the transmit data based on the communication partner detected by the detection means.

7. The communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein the detection means detects information contained in the received data as the reception result;

and

wherein the identification means identifies the transmit data based on the information contained in the received data detected by the detection means.

8. The communication terminal according to claim 1, further comprising:

a communication partner change instruction means for directing a change of the communication partner to whom the transmit data is to be transmitted; and

wherein the transmission means, whenever a change instruction from the communication partner change instruction means occurs, transmits the transmit data identified by the identification means to the communication partner based on the change instruction.

9. The communication terminal according to claim 1, further comprises:

a plurality of transmission means; and

a transmission change instruction means for directing a change of the transmission means used to transmit the transmit data;

wherein, whenever a change instruction from the transmission change instruction means occurs, the transmit data identified by the identification means is transmitted by the transmission means based on the change instruction.

10. A computer-readable storage medium having a communication program of a communication terminal stored thereon that is executable by a computer, comprising:

reception processing for receiving data transmitted from a communication partner;

detection processing for detecting a reception result generated by the reception processing;

identification processing for identifying transmit data from among data previously stored based on the reception result detected by the detection processing; and

transmission processing for transmitting the transmit data identified by the identification processing to the communication partner received by the reception means.
