Mobile Terminal Call Overlay on Navigation Display
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current mobile communication terminals terminate the navigation service when a call is received, causing inconvenience and making it impossible to receive both call and navigation services simultaneously.
Innovation Solution
A mobile communication terminal that overlays a call reception window with call connection state information on the navigation service screen or splits the screen to display navigation and call information, allowing users to manage calls without disrupting navigation services.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the navigation service is terminated to receive a call, then the call connection can be established, but the navigation service must be restarted from the beginning, causing inconvenience and loss of time
Solution Approach 1:
The screen display is segmented into two independent regions: a first display region showing navigation service information and a second display region showing call connection state information. This segmentation allows both services to operate simultaneously without interfering with each other, eliminating the need to terminate and restart the navigation service when a call is received.
2Ease of operation
If the navigation service is terminated to receive a call, then the call connection can be established, but the navigation service cannot continue running, reducing productivity
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is divided into separate regions that independently display navigation and call information, allowing both services to run concurrently without one terminating the other, thus maintaining navigation productivity while enabling call reception.
Solution Approach 2:
The call connection state information is nested within the navigation service display interface, with the call reception window overlaid on or integrated with the navigation screen. This nesting allows the call function to be contained within the navigation service environment without disrupting its continuous operation.
3Adaptability or versatility
If a call reception window is overlaid on the navigation screen, then both services can be displayed simultaneously, but the screen space for navigation information is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is segmented into a first display region for navigation information and a second display region for call connection state information. This segmentation provides dedicated space for each service, ensuring that the overlay does not excessively reduce navigation display area while still enabling multi-service capability.
Solution Approach 2:
Instead of reducing horizontal or vertical screen space, the call reception window utilizes the depth dimension by being displayed as an overlay with adjustable transparency. This allows the call interface to appear in front of the navigation screen without permanently reducing the navigation display area, as the overlay can be minimized or transparent when not in use.

AI summary
The present invention relates to a mobile communication terminal for receiving a voice call while navigation service is running, and to a method therefor. According to the present invention, the mobile communication terminal for receiving a voice call while navigation service is running includes: a navigation unit supporting a navigation service; a controller providing, when an incoming call is received while the navigation service is being provided, call connection state information on the incoming call; and a display unit displaying a route guidance image corresponding to the navigation service and displaying a call reception window which provides the call connection state information to a preset area in the route guidance image.
