System for regulating entrance/exit of person and communication of wireless communication terminal, entrance/exit regulating apparatus to be used for the system, and wireless communication apparatus whose communication is to be restricted
First Claim
1. A system having an entrance/exit management apparatus for regulating an entrance/exit of a person and a wireless communication terminal for communicating with the entrance/exit management apparatus, wherein:
- the entrance/exit management apparatus comprises;
a transceiving device adapted to transmit, by a first wireless communication method, a communication function restriction request to the wireless communication terminal and to receive a response to the communication function restriction request from the wireless communication terminal; and
a gate device adapted to permit an entrance/exit of a person when the transmitting of the communication function restriction request and the receiving of the response by said transceiving device is completed; and
the wireless communication terminal comprises;
a first communication device adapted to communicate with the entrance/exit management apparatus by the first wireless communication method;
a second communication device adapted to communicate by a second wireless communication method; and
a restriction device adapted to restrict communication of said second communication device in accordance with the communication function restriction request received from said transceiving device by said first wireless communication method.

Abstract
Communication control is made which satisfies the needs of both an owner or manager of a communication place and users of wireless communication terminals. As a user of a cellular phone passes through an automatic ticket gate and enters a predetermined area, The ticket gate and cellular phone check whether the cellular phone has an electronic ticket for entering the area. After this check, the automatic ticket gate requests the cellular phone to restrict the communication function. After the requested restriction is set by the cellular phone, entrance to the area is permitted and the gate is opened.
