System for restricting mobile user network access location and user equipment, method and computer readable medium thereof

Abstract

This invention discloses a system and method for restricting the location and terminal used by mobile users to access the internet. It restricts the real-time location and terminal used by mobile network users. By interfacing with an open information platform, the system can logically determine whether the user has left the internet access area designated by the service provider or is using a permitted terminal, and then take corresponding reminders or control actions. This invention also provides a computer-readable medium for executing the method of this invention.

Claims

1. A system for restricting the location and terminal used by mobile users to access the internet, comprising: User data storage module, used to store user data of mobile network users; The user location and terminal detection module is connected to the user data storage module. It uses the user data obtained from the user data storage module to query an external information open application interface system to check whether the user has moved out of the predetermined location and to obtain information about the user's currently used terminal. If it is determined that the user has exceeded the predetermined location or is using an unauthorized terminal, the module then determines the number of notifications the user has received and generates corresponding actions. The user notification and control module is connected to the user data storage module and receives the user's mobile number and corresponding actions from the user location and terminal detection module. If the number of notifications has not exceeded the allowed number, a reminder notification is sent to the user. If the number of notifications has exceeded the allowed number, a control notification is sent to the user through an external control system, and the external control system then manages the user.

2. The system for restricting the location and terminal used by mobile users for internet access as described in claim 1, wherein, The user information includes the user's mobile number, the scheduled location, the permitted movement range, the permitted terminals, the number of permitted uses, the number of notifications received, or the control status.

3. The system for restricting the location and terminal used by mobile users for internet access as described in claim 1, wherein, When the user location and terminal detection module determines that the allowable movement range in the user data is empty, the allowable movement range will be dynamically adjusted based on the user's information on the radio access network.

4. A system as described in Request 1 that restricts the location and terminal used by mobile users for internet access, wherein, The user notification and control module includes notifying the user data storage module to update the number of notifications or control status for that user.

5. A system for restricting the location and terminal used by mobile users for internet access, as described in claim 4, wherein, When the user location and terminal detection module determines that the user is in the predetermined location and using an authorized terminal, but the control status is under control, it will notify the user data storage module to clear the control status and reset the number of notifications, and notify the user to notify the control module to release the control and send a recovery notification to the user.

6. A system for restricting the location and terminal used by mobile users for internet access as described in claim 1, wherein, The user notification and control module sends the reminder notification to the user through an external notification system.

7. A method for restricting the location and terminal used by a mobile user to access the internet, comprising the following steps: storing user data of the mobile network user in a user data storage module; querying an external open application interface system using the user data obtained from the user data storage module to check whether the user has moved out of a predetermined location and to obtain information about the user's currently used terminal, so that if the user is found to have exceeded the predetermined location or is using an unauthorized terminal, the system further determines the number of notifications the user has received and generates a corresponding action; and receiving the user's SIM card number and the corresponding action from the user location and terminal detection module, so that if the number of notifications received does not exceed the allowed number, a reminder notification is sent to the user, or if the number of notifications received exceeds the allowed number, a control notification is sent to the user through an external control system, and the external control system manages the user.

8. The method for restricting the location and terminal used by a mobile user for internet access as described in claim 7, wherein, The user information includes the user's mobile number, the scheduled location, the permitted movement range, the permitted terminals, the number of permitted uses, the number of notifications received, or the control status.

9. The method for restricting the location and terminal used by a mobile user for internet access as described in claim 7, wherein, When the user location and terminal detection module determines that the allowable movement range in the user data is empty, the allowable movement range will be dynamically adjusted based on the user's information on the radio access network.

10. The method for restricting the location and terminal used by a mobile user for internet access as described in claim 7 further includes: The user notification and control module is instructed to notify the user data storage module to update the number of notifications or control status for that user.

11. The method for restricting the location and terminal used by a mobile user for internet access as described in claim 10, wherein, When the user location and terminal detection module determines that the user is in the predetermined location and using an authorized terminal, but the control status is under control, it will notify the user data storage module to clear the control status and reset the number of notifications, and notify the user to notify the control module to release the control and send a recovery notification to the user.

12. The method for restricting the location and terminal used by a mobile user for internet access as described in claim 7, wherein, The user notification and control module sends the reminder notification to the user through an external notification system.

13. A computer-readable medium, applied in a computing device or computer, storing instructions for performing a method for restricting the location of a mobile user accessing the Internet and the terminal used, as described in any one of claims 7 to 12.
