Solution Overview

Problem

Existing methods for transmitting information during voice communications, such as accessing GPS coordinates or insurance policy numbers, are cumbersome and often lead to loss of connection, especially for users not familiar with modern technologies.

Innovation Solution

A method that automates data transmission by determining the correspondent's call number, reading configuration information associating the call number with data identifiers, obtaining the data, and transmitting it to a recipient, with optional authorization and transmission methods, including SMS or URL, to simplify the process.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If users manually access and transmit information during voice communications, then data can be transmitted to correspondents, but the manipulation is cumbersome and leads to loss of connection especially for users not familiar with modern technologies

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of data transmissionVSAvoidconnection stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The terminal pre-stores multiple sets of correspondence relationships between contact information and data identifiers before the communication occurs. When a call is initiated, the system automatically retrieves and transmits the corresponding data without requiring manual user intervention, thus preventing connection loss and simplifying operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The terminal automatically performs data retrieval and transmission operations without human intervention. The system monitors communication status and autonomously transmits relevant data based on pre-configured associations, making the device serve itself rather than requiring user manipulation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Productivity

If users manually access information stored in terminal during communication, then data can be transmitted to correspondent, but the manipulations are complicated and can lead to loss of communication

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata transmission efficiencyVSAvoidoperation complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The terminal pre-stores multiple sets of correspondence relationships between contact information and data identifiers before the communication occurs. When a call is initiated, the system automatically retrieves and transmits the corresponding data without requiring manual user intervention, thus preventing connection loss and simplifying operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The terminal automatically performs data retrieval and transmission operations without human intervention. The system monitors communication status and autonomously transmits relevant data based on pre-configured associations, making the device serve itself rather than requiring user manipulation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Loss of information

If users seek information during communication to transmit to service, then necessary data can be obtained, but it requires additional time and manipulation during the call

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation completenessVSAvoidtime during communication
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The terminal pre-stores multiple sets of correspondence relationships between contact information and data identifiers before the communication occurs. When a call is initiated, the system automatically retrieves and transmits the corresponding data without requiring manual user intervention, thus preventing connection loss and simplifying operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The terminal automatically performs data retrieval and transmission operations without human intervention. The system monitors communication status and autonomously transmits relevant data based on pre-configured associations, making the device serve itself rather than requiring user manipulation.

AI summary

The invention relates to a method for transmitting data on a terminal during a communication, such that, upon establishing a communication initiated from the terminal to a correspondent, it comprises the steps of determining (301) the correspondent's phone number; reading (302) configuration information comprising at least one association between the determined phone number and a data identifier, the data identifier being associated with a command to retrieve the data; retrieving (303), by executing the associated command, the identified data; and transmitting (305) the data to a recipient. The invention also relates to a communication terminal implementing the method.
