1. A mobile communication terminal, comprising:
- a key input unit for allowing a user to input an operation command;
a memory unit for storing authentication information including an authentication algorithm, an authentication key, a terminal ESN (electronic serial number), a subscriber MIN (mobile identification number), an SSD (shared secret data), and terminal usage time information;
a RF (radio frequency) communication unit for transmitting/receiving voice and data signals to/from the wireless network via an antenna; and
a control unit including an authentication processor to generate a voice call initiation message including an authentication information containing the terminal usage time information upon receiving a voice call connection request message from the key input unit, to transmit the voice call initiation message, and to perform a voice call release process upon receiving an authentication failure message from a wireless network in response to the voice call initiation message.

Abstract
Disclosed is a technology for preventing a legitimate terminal'"'"'s user from being damaged due to the fraudulent usage of a cloned terminal. A mobile communication terminal transmits authentication information containing terminal usage time information to a wireless network according to a voice call connection procedure, and performs a voice call release process upon receiving an authentication failure message from the wireless network in response to the authentication information.

4. A system for automatically blocking a voice call connection, comprising:
-
a wireless network for receiving a voice call initiation message including the authentication information containing the terminal usage time information from a mobile communication terminal, generating and transmitting a voice call connection request message including authentication information containing terminal usage time information to an MSC (mobile switching center); and an MSC for receiving the voice call connection request message including the authentication information containing the terminal usage time information from the wireless network, comparing the received terminal usage time information with previously stored terminal usage time information of a corresponding mobile communication terminal, and transmitting an authentication success message or an authentication failure message to the mobile communication terminal over the wireless network. - View Dependent Claims (5)

6. A mobile communication terminal for transmitting authentication information comprised of a subscriber MIN (mobile identification number), a terminal ESN (electronic serial number), and data usage amount information to a wireless data service authentication server over a wireless network according to a wireless data service connection procedure, comprising:
-
a key input unit for allowing a user to input an operation command; a memory unit for storing the subscriber MIN, the terminal ESN, and the data usage amount; a RF communication unit for transmitting/receiving voice and data signals to/from the wireless network; a control unit including an authentication processor for transmitting the subscriber MIN, the terminal ESN, and the data usage amount information stored in the memory unit to the wireless data service authentication server via the RF communication unit upon receiving a wireless data service connection request command from the key input unit, and performing a wireless data connection release process upon receiving an authentication failure message from the wireless data service authentication server in response to the transmitted information. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8)
