Abstract

A user equipment that enables a user to transmit and receive an event using a calendar protocol in a calendar application is provided. The user equipment includes a calendar unit configured to store calendar data and display a calendar at a request of a user, an event managing unit configured to manage an event on the calendar, and an event transmitting/receiving unit configured to transmit an event of the user equipment to an external apparatus and receive an event from the external apparatus by using a certain calendar protocol.

Claims

1. A user equipment comprising:

a calendar unit configured to store calendar data and display a calendar at a request of a user;

an event managing unit configured to manage an event on the calendar; and

an event transmitting/receiving unit configured to transmit an event of the user equipment to an external apparatus and receive an event from the external apparatus by using a calendar protocol.

2. The user equipment of claim 1, wherein the external apparatus comprises at least one of a third-party user equipment, a service provider, and a third-party application server.

3. The user equipment of claim 1, wherein the event comprises at least one of a list-type event and a template-type event.

4. The user equipment of claim 1, wherein the template-type event is an invitation event.

5. A method for transmitting an event using a calendar protocol from a user equipment, the method comprising:

displaying an event on a calendar;

selecting an event and an external apparatus to which the event is to be transmitted; and

transmitting the selected event to the external apparatus using the calendar protocol.

6. The method of claim 5, wherein the external apparatus comprises at least one of a third-party user equipment, a service provider, and a third-party application server.

7. The method of claim 5, wherein the event includes at least one of a list-type event and a template-type event.

11. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program, which, when executed by a computer, implements the method of claim 5.

8. A method for receiving an event using a calendar protocol by a user equipment, the method comprising:

receiving an event using the calendar protocol from an external apparatus; and

displaying the received event on a corresponding date and time on a calendar.

9. The method of claim 8, wherein the external apparatus includes at least one of a third-party user equipment, a service provider, and a third-party application server.

10. The method of claim 8, wherein the event includes at least one of a list-type event and a template-type event.

12. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program, which, when executed by a computer, implements the method of claim 8.
