Communication terminal, communication state information providing system, and method of providing communication state information
First Claim
1. A communication state information providing system, comprising:
- a communication terminal includingfirst communication means for communicating with a first outside system over a mobile communication network;
second communication means for communicating with a second outside system over a wireless LAN;
communication state detection means for detecting any change in a communication state of the first communication means; and
communication state notification means for notifying the second communication means of communication state information, which indicates the change in the communication state of the first communication means,wherein the second communication means transmits the communication state information over the wireless LAN; and
an information providing device includinginformation receiving means for receiving the communication state information transmitted by the communication terminal over the network;
communication state information storage means for storing the communication state information received by the information receiving means associated with communication terminal specification information, which specifies the communication terminal; and
information transmitting means for transmitting the communication state information stored in the communication state information storage means to a destination associated with the communication terminal specification information.
